With that Big Gulp of a mouth in panel 3, I was expecting to hear a “YEE-HAWWWW!” It’s good that Mark can compartmentalize and simply enjoy the sights without having to be preoccupied with how things are going to develop on the ground. Plenty of time to think about that, especially if he has to sit on the tarmac for an hour waiting for an open gate.

Rivera does a decent job of replicating the airport entrance and sculpture (based on photos I referenced), including one of the sculpture’s nighttime spotlights on the ground. Maybe that armadillo is rising up to search for the other spots.  

I wonder if Rivera will have Mark visit tourist spots like he did in New York, before contacting the hunting heroines? Will Mark embarrass himself inside the Alamo doing Davy Crockett impressions?
