Rip Off Comix #10

In "The Battle of the Titans Part 3: Return of the Future," the long-dead Piltdown Pig awakens two hundred thousand years after his demise, only to find his descendants—Wonder Wart-Hog, Paranoid Punkpig, and 996-347-1364—reborn in his wake. Together, they journey back to the Twentieth Century, confronting a Muthalode City transformed beyond recognition.

In "Frank Crankcase's Time Machine," Frank’s overconfidence gets him into trouble when he skips the fine print and uses his mail-order time machine without the essential gyrometric space-time subject locator. The results are predictably chaotic, as he finds himself careening through history with no idea where—or when—he’ll end up next.

In "Mundo Curioso," a radio sits silent while a lineup of curious objects waits in vain for a word. A pear, held by a clamp, finally drops when its grip loosens—ripe and ready. Then, chaos unfolds in a single frame: a car bursts into a room, spilling a suitcase, which releases a bottle, which finally gives birth to a late-arriving pen, scolded for its tardiness.

"Saturday in the Apartments" offers a quietly striking glimpse into the lives of young adults across eight different homes, each panel revealing a distinct moment of intimacy, isolation, or quiet rebellion. With a keen eye for the mundane and the meaningful, the story captures a slice of early '80s urban life—full of personal choices, quiet anxieties, and the occasional flicker of connection.
