Well, that’s one way to perform a takedown.

Looks like Henchman Fatty has some good detective skills, guess we should call him ‘something something PI’. Ummm… what his real name?

Frank Cannon, perhaps? ^_~

The important thing is that he *bantered*! ^_^
Looks like it might not be a bad idea to give our hero some sumo training. ^_~

Now there’s a guy who knows how to throw his weight around
By disaster Mon Apr 17th 2017 at 4:07 am
guess he really laid him out

And the mole is now thinking — Oh, this is gonna be great for my rep!
(with a wink to Buzz Lightyear of Star Command).

After that, anything Meat does won’t seem so bad…mainly because he’ll already have lost all feeling

Weigh to get on top of ‘The Situation’

I think we have a winner.

As a (beyond) morbidly obese guy who reads this strip, I wanted to weigh in and point out… this kind of happened to me before. XD Obviously I’ve never been a henchman for a supervillain, but between roughhousing with family/friends, going to a public school, and specifically my high school having a “wrestling unit” for P.E. I learned how to literally throw my weight around. I’ve never been very good in a fight except when someone underestimates me. What happened to the mole happened in the wrestling unit, except my opponent was actually fairly stocky but made the mistake of trying to take me down by grappling my legs. I simply fell forward, and he was pinned. ^^’

Nice move. But why would you TELL the guy you suspect as a traitor that you suspect him as a traitor? Just discreetly tell Meat. Then there’s no danger to you.

He wants the glory!
By Towering Barbarian Mon Apr 17th 2017 at 5:33 pm
Random guy has a point. With Claw’s gang he is quite clearly liked but not respected. Bringing this guy in would prove his worth and earn him respect. There are two other possible reasons:
*
1. Perhaps he already did. “Come in, Lieutenant Meat!” implies that Meat was waiting on the other end.(& *Lieutenant* is an interesting word in this context. Is Claw’s organization a paramilitary one or did Meat find himself assigned temporary rank whether he sought it or not? o_O).
*
2. The other possible reason is, would he be believed if he were to do so? Keep in mind he’s the guy Meat sent to stay at the bridge because the bridge was off and he couldn’t possibly mess that up. So it might be that he thought, correctly or incorrectly, that no one would believe him if he were to share his positions and that it was up to him to handle it by himself.

The term Lieutenant has been used in top down structures outside the (para)military for some time. Criminal (especialy organized and drug crime) has used it quite frequently for the people that is between the “Boss” and the people that make sure it gets done.

Obviously he HAD to tell him, in order to BANTER. That’s the whole POINT, right? Banter? Then take him down when he starts monologuing.
By Bracey Tue Apr 18th 2017 at 2:47 am
Well done fat guy! Im proud of you! And pleasantly surprised.
By Sidekick Matt Tue Apr 18th 2017 at 4:53 am
Yeah! Way to go… uh… Chubby minion. Next panel I foresee Meat with a tear in his eye.
By Leomendarus Wed Apr 19th 2017 at 6:59 am
Are you reading the same comic as I am?
The only way there will be a tear in Meat’s eye is if one splashes off the minion hes beating.
By Bracey Sat Apr 22nd 2017 at 5:13 am
That is soooo true!
By Marscaleb Wed Apr 19th 2017 at 4:50 am
Much applause for this page!

Well, I should remember never to read this comic while drinking anything (typed after cleaning coffee from laptop screen).
