    The Bug with the baseball hat scratching his butt in panel 2 was a nice touch.

    Jetpack technology HAS been perfected. It was perfected back in the ’60s. We don’t use them because they’re noisy, impractical gas-guzzlers.

      That doesn’t really sound perfected, does it? They were invented then, sure 😛 Some working prototypes, that’s all!

    Yikes! Aren’t jetpacks supposed to have some kind of controls? Maybe this one is controlled telepathically with a mind probe conveniently hidden under either a Super Dave Osborne helmet, reversed ball cap, or Monopoly hat.

    {and I do like the inline burp brackets!}

      Being that cool costs a lot of money… So there’s no way he could afford a new one.

    Man, can you imagine the kind of paperwork and licensing that will be required though? I mean, atleast three times what it takes to get a car.

      So far, none. Jetpacks are so small that they are unregulated.

    Jet packs always seem like they’re going to burn your feet off.
