Looks like the jock strap turned into a joke strap!
I guess the joke's on Torg. But a jock like him still looks strappy in it.

It probably doesn't matter anyway. With everything that has happened to this group, they were most likely all sterile long before now.

Though maybe not Zoe since she is version 2.0...

I'm just wondering why, in panel 1, Torg is trying to set up a stringed instrument that is somewhat larger than a violin.

Radiation often gives people superpowers in comics, so Torg is definitely going about this the right way.

And thus the mystery of the jersey turnpike is solved.

Torg setting himself up for a Darwin Award? (death is not necessary as long as the person renders themselves unable to contribute to the gene pool)

Hey, there's radiation and then there's radiation. Not all of it is harmful, and some is beneficial: Torg may be setting himself up to have a super-child.

And he's welcome to it; even regular children can be hard to handle.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I got out of this strip.

Also, what's with the duck face close-ups? Have we not suffered enough?

Wonder what happens if you press the Omen, Event, or Item icons on the quick bar...?

Don't worry Torg, you were already sterile

The teeth are bothering me. Before this Torg and Riff (and Zoe too, I guess) mostly exhibited Looney Toons style damage from Bun-bun's attacks -- things were broken and teeth were knocked out, but a few panels later everything was back to normal. I always interpreted that to mean that we were getting a physical representation of what they felt like had happened to them. But this... this is disturbing.

This is still the same running gag. Wait for it to run its course.

I don't think sterility is what has Torg concerned in that last panel...
