Did I miss a day this week? I don’t recall any mention or scene of Mark and Happy coming back. Yet, here he is, all duded up. It’s been a few years since I’ve been to a wedding, but I don’t recall grooms dressing like Willy Wonka or the doorman at Harrods. Well, Bob Dylan and all that, I reckon.

Maybe Mark was right to not bring Niecy along with Happy to the gorilla sanctuary. Her hand-clapping approval of Happy’s attire is reason enough, but it also undermines Mark’s agenda. On the other hand, it looks like we might get back to some good ol’ Fists o’ Fury between these two dudes, just like in the very first Mark Trail story (by Jules Rivera).

But, I’ll give Rivera good marks today for finally writing an effective pun in a narration box (panel 2) that actually marries the content of the scene to the national holiday.
