It's here everyone, the Spooky Times are upon us! Time for the Halloween mischief and mayhem to commence! Woohoo! Can't wait to see what happens! Been waiting all month for this!

Any second now...

Um...

Well, this was not what I was expecting after all of that hype.

Should I be disappointed? Not sure what to think now.

Actually, there's nothing that I can point to saying that there was a guarantee something was going to happen...

Apparently today is just another boring old Wednesday after all.

Riff has returned from random dimensions before, so... I'm curious to see where he's ended up.

At least Riff's confession from before will be useful?

That last panel was really good.

"Oh no! Riff got zappo'ed into another dimension!" in Sluggy is like "On no! Rory died!" in Doctor Who.

Riff really need to start travelling different dimensions and stealing alt!Riff's research on DFA. Every Alt!Riffs knows more about DFA than Riff himself. Every time he's returned with the help of various alt!Riffs' technology, it's about time he got that technology for himself.

Meanwhile, Torg's gonna have nightmares about this yet again. His last words to stranded Riff were basically - shut up if you're not gonna be useful. He's gonna blame himself about the fact that Riff decided to be useful.

That's a forever job. Might be easier to have Riff tell two Riffs. and have them tell two Riffs. And have them....

Before you know it, we'll have a Riff and Morty citadel.

That last panel thought. So lonely. Well done Pete.

It's Riff though, so I have no doubt that he'll turn up again. Just give him some time.

The Multiverse trembles at this dimensional inevitability. In fact, I'm pretty sure Timeless Space was invented to keep this from spreading out of it's little local pocket of dimensions.

Wow.
I second the impact of that last panel, but also the first panel with Gwynn's reaction.

I was thinking about this too. I bet it's already going through his mind as he's staring out at the empty space where Riff had been. (My spec is still possible though, so I have hope!). Torg needs Riff and vice versa. They help keep each other in check, and they tend to not realize the advantage of working together sometimes. As Bunbun once said when Torg left for 6 months He overvalued Riff's tech and undervalued his own leadership. And adventures in dimensions alone have been trauma-inducing to both of them.

I am in the midst of re-watching season 7. I miss Rory. Still my favorite companion.

There's already a Riff and Torg in that one. Maybe they could get together to send this Riff back. If they're not too distracted.

I don't think it'll be as bad for Torg this time. It's very different from the apparent death of Riff and Zoe before. Guilt, sure, but he knows if anyone could come back from it, it's Riff.

Of course, that won't stop Pete from possibly stabbing an "off-camera" knife in OUR hearts...

This could be the perfect setup for Riff to SPEC...

I'm sure he was. (Hence his "*whew!*" as he got zappo'd.) Of course the chances of him actually pulling it off are about 1 in 26,000,000,000,000, but that's Sluggy for ya...
