Kinda Easy Money. tomorrow's comic will be animated.

And will break up the battle by leading everybody in a round of "20 years of Nifty Darn Comics"

I wonder if Riff ever got the 'Stun' setting on his laser cannon fixed?

Stun 'em all, I say!!

aaaaaand we're wrong!
Well, at least you don't lose much money on a safe bet.

Who had "Nothing will have happened by August 25th"? You're still wrong, but by god you'd be close

I definitely had that.

The super secret fiendishly hidden Rebirth Facility that no one has been able to locate for years is an open hole in the ground less than 5 miles from Steve's lab/HC HQ?
Really?
No camouflaged trapdoor, hologram rock or... inflatable tree to conceal it??

I agree, it's ridiculous.

Anyway I'm guessing that the door is locked and Torg is going to "do something" to get it open.

I have spec that the door is unlocked because somebody recently came out...

hC was already completely destroyed once: now that comic is continuing, who's to say that it won't pop up again? hC is like cybermen from DW: even if you wipe them out, someone will found them again, or alternate-dimension version of it will land here, or million other things.

For love of everything, I at least hope they will defeat Schlock for good, plus all his inflatable clones, robot clones, AI backups, etc. And delete Torg from Oasis' consciousness.

I think hC has the advantage of being an (until now) nimble corporation with money and marketing, so they could 're-rise their commercial side and wait under the radar until they had enough resources for evil. That's what they have done so far, but hC might not have that option anymore after what Torg did. Hopefully they can defeat them utterly!

Yesterday, Chen mentions Roberts', and that doctor Steve named him, today we see Roberts' again, without showing his face, we've never seen his face. I think that when we finally _do_ see Roberts' face that it's going to be yet another reveal. Maybe He's Torgs dad, controlled with that weird helmet/ implant.

Pete's hiding his face still, which seems to indicate that he is likely a rebirth of someone though I have no idea whom it could be.

Bert. Roberts is Bert.

Well, Chen mentioned that Dr. Steve named him, so I'm gonna go with Roberts being another Steve rebirth. Which also explains why he's up in the station, since Schlock would definitely want a backup just in case.

That means if Chen wants to use any watch he finds on the premises, he'll still need to contact Schlock to access Roberts' voice.


Or Roberts is Bert. It's pretty much 50/50 at this point

I don't believe for a second that Schlock thinks Roberts is anything special at all, other than a completely subservient flunky.

Also, if Roberts IS a rebirth of Steve (and if Schlock knows it), I also wouldn't believe that Schlock would be in the same room with him alone/only with Frog. His paranoia level is way too high for that - that'd be a Kusari-level threat.

Also also, did it seem to anyone else like Roberts was adjusting a wig, not just the helmet?
