He "secretes" them about his person? Ewww....I'm happier thinking he just cuts stuff too!

Secret, not secrete.... ;-) Though the thought of secreting a knife is amusing!

Brock Samson (no "p)... now there is an effing role model!

I have a friend who used to say that he collected handshakes. He had a whole list of famous people he'd shaken hands with. By "whole list" I mean "two or three", and by "famous people" i mean "people who might have a wikipedia stub article about them".

it was a short-lived hobby.

1. To conceal in a hiding place; cache.
2. To steal secretly; filch.

[Probably alteration of obsolete secret, from secret.]

Brilliant. The last line really ties it all together.

HA! I love the Mexican Wrestling mask. Also, I love the Venture Brothers reference.

Knife-resistant is an important feature.

Don't forget the ascot.

whole cows aren't kosher, only the front half of a cow can be kosher.

Still working on finding a monocle I see.

June 25, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterJeremy

Hey, so you work from pictures... Please tell me that you actually have a picture of you in the getup shown in the last panel.

June 25, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterMatt

Knife-resistant smoking jacket. Nice.

June 25, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterLeo

I have to say, new ric looks a bit like your wife.

June 25, 2009 | Unregistered Commentera*p

Rick seems a lot less angry now that he's packing... Also, the only thing that could make panel 4 more disturbing would be the addition of the blue Watchmen "garment" to Scott's wardrobe.

So mulletman is like Renfield from Bram Stoker's Dracula? I'd think you'd WANT the knife wielding friend on your side after that encounter.

June 25, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBender the Robot

Hmmmm, weaaring the smoking jacket, Mexican wrestling mask with a fez on top, and chainmail gloves....on your way to the gentleman's club with Ric again? Mmmmmmm, mint julips.....

June 25, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterJames Yeamans

Worryingly, I work with a guy who seems to be into knives and the new look Rick looks more like him.

June 25, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterThe Committing Yak

It's there. The speech bubble's blocking it.

June 26, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterIsaac

What about the monocle ? The outfit is not complete !

June 26, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAntho

which is actually part of the smoking jacket "ensemble"

June 27, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBI Fan

maybe Mullet Boss has, in fact, 8 front-halves of cows, equalling four "whole" cows...

June 27, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBI Fan

or has eaten, I should say...
