The bangs aren’t the source of his power, but they are associated with the source of his power. The actual source of his power are all the nickles for those ba- *vaudeville hook*
Despite the road bumps he’s had a fairly uneventful school life. With so many characters and him not showing any particular problems it’s not unlikely he fell by the wayside. I mean, Daisy is here so it’s already kind of a “side character” chapter.
Ruth is kind of insulting him in the last panel. Not really a great start to them hitting it off. Plus I don’t think Jason’s really her type personality wise, but I assume he has an accent so maybe Ruth would be into that.
I mean he’s having some better days in the Joyce and Walky reruns right now. Horrifically violent days with characters on the brink of death, sure, but better than this.
Vague memory suggests that those born with dual citizenship, both US and something else, are required to pick one at a certain age, but I’m not sure what the age is, or if this is something my mind is making up.
Apparently I was wrong. It seems that the ability for adults to be simultaneously citizens of two countries under US law was recognized by the Supreme Court in Kawakita v. United States.
Cripes, Jason me lad, it’s been yonks! When’d we see you last, can’t’ve been more than a few months but it feels like years. The longer hair and darker brows suit you, mate.
Speaking as not-a-barman, I don’t get why this matters? Surely if someone’s fake ID was good enough you wouldn’t get in trouble for serving them would you?
No, the law is pretty clear in most matters involving a fake ID. While the person with the fake ID will of course be in trouble ( I believe it’s considered fraud for faking a government document ) the other side will also be in trouble for not accurately spotting a fake ID. There are a few cases where this has been argued but it’s rare for it to change.
Plus, you can’t come into a strip club (where I bounce) when you’re under a certain age. And we’ve had a few of our more persistent creeps try sneaking back in as well, hoping a fake ID will be enough to fool whoever’s at the door.
Like a lot of laws in the US, it varies by state. In Texas, knowingly using or even possessing a fictitious or altered driver’s license or other official personal identification certificate is a misdemeanor which can get you a year behind bars and a few thousand dollars poorer. If it’s not such a certificate but only confusingly similar to one, then possibility of the jail term goes away, but there is still a fine. Unless the confusingly similar certificate has a clear statement “not a government document” somewhere in the fine print, in which case it’s perfectly okay. Tampering with a real government certificate can get you ten years behind bars and a ten thousand dollar fine. Loaning someone your ID or providing them with a fictitious document gets you the same penalty as using one.
But.
If a bar takes your fake ID, there may be some minor criminal charges, but the serious thing is that the bar loses their liquor license and probably goes out of business, and since losing such a license in itself not a crime, it’s not entrapment when Alcoholic Beverage Commission conducts undercover sting operations at random, or on businesses that have ticked them off, using real minors to test the bar’s ability to spot fake IDs.
The Beatles made the most famous version but there are dozens. It’s one of those songs every garage band either does or tries to do, like “Mustang Sally” or “I Shot The Sheriff”.
I’m noticing that pretty much all of the Dumbiverse characters post-skip now have immediately obvious physical differences from their Walkyverse counterparts (mostly related to hair). Almost the sort of thing one might want to do if one were planning a crossover. Obviously Willis has said that’s not happening, but then again they’ve changed their mind before…
A lot of time has passed out of universe (since the beginning of DOA, but especially since previous comics), so it also might have been an excuse to modernize the haircuts and stuff a bit.
Completely unrelated to the current storyline and I know we’re already mired in some story stuff but as a bisexual dude myself I’d like to see Danny get a molecule of character development at some point ngl
For some reason I didn’t expect Jason to still be working as a bartender at Galasso’s. Last time we saw him was before the time skip, if I remember right.
Anyone else concerned that suddenly Ruth is in a bar that she didn’t plan on visiting? With a few minutes to kill now that her date is “occupied” momentarily? Bad things could happen quickly.
I feel like the mention of ER might be just what she needed to hear. Besides, her date seems to be going unexpectedly well, so, I’d guess she’s relatively less self -destructive than usual rn!
There is a slight chance this is hitting me in the family history, affecting my ability to detect sarcasm (but not, apparently, to dish it out). Today’s strip didn’t help.
Jason is a great guy. He care for the health of the others. Ruth don’t have a chance to order something at the bar with him as a bartender. Let’s hope Daisy will be Ok soon.
Am I the only one who is bothered by the fact that the sign to the right of the Reds ad and above the list of Specials says “Mult Billie Hompk!AA/halp”
In real life the hallway to the bathroom goes all the way across the building – sure there’s an entrance from the bar but also from elsewhere in the restaurant. But Ruth is in the bar, so the entrance to the hallway from the back of the bar is the nearest route.

the ghost of Mike manifesting in bangs on Jason
I knew the bangs signified something…
If the bangs are the source of his power, I’m coming in at about 1.5 Mikes right now
The bangs aren’t the source of his power, but they are associated with the source of his power. The actual source of his power are all the nickles for those ba- *vaudeville hook*
But the real source was all the moms who provided both the nickels and the bangs.
Who knew that Jason was secretly powered by woodpeckers all along
Its the bowtie.
It is also a trick one, that spins, to facilitate blowing ciggy smoke back into rude customer’s face.
You’ll know you’re at full Mike when your bangs can defy gravity.
Damn came here to post just that. Can’t compete with the champ though.
Apparently no character in DOA is cutting their hair this year.
Hostility, thy name is Ruth.
Oh. I guess Jason is still in this comic. Still not very relevant though, even with new hair. Remember that time he and Sal banged? That was his peak.
Banging and bangs. A fringe character now has a fringe. It’s all connected, man.
Don’t Bogart the joint.
I see what you did there.
Plus tutoring Walky. Wonder if he still is, though I’d imagine it’s not super likely.
Despite the road bumps he’s had a fairly uneventful school life. With so many characters and him not showing any particular problems it’s not unlikely he fell by the wayside. I mean, Daisy is here so it’s already kind of a “side character” chapter.
Huh. Is Ruth going to hit it off with Jason while Daisy’s in the bathroom? Is that where this thing is going?
I mean I hope not for Daisy’s sake but I can kind of see it happening.
This was not intended as a reply. Whoops.
Be nice if there were edit/delete functions.
Ruth is kind of insulting him in the last panel. Not really a great start to them hitting it off. Plus I don’t think Jason’s really her type personality wise, but I assume he has an accent so maybe Ruth would be into that.
You’d think an insult would be a bad start to a relationship, but look at how Ruth and Billie hit it off. With literal hitting.
Ruth became interested in Daisy only after there was yelling.
They just make small talk, but Daisy thinks they’re hitting it off. Confusion and drama ensue.
TBF banging Sal would be the peak for anyone.
Are you saying that Ethan would never give us peak Danny?
He has seen better days. Still dang spiffy.
*orders whole wheat bread for the table*
The new hairdo suits him well
I mean he’s having some better days in the Joyce and Walky reruns right now. Horrifically violent days with characters on the brink of death, sure, but better than this.
Cheezy bread for me, thanks
I wonder if the fact that Ruth’s new ID is probably American bothers her Canadian sensibilities, too.
It’s possible she has dual citizenship, if her mother was from Indiana and her father was Canadian.
That’s what I’ve always assumed.
Vague memory suggests that those born with dual citizenship, both US and something else, are required to pick one at a certain age, but I’m not sure what the age is, or if this is something my mind is making up.
Apparently I was wrong. It seems that the ability for adults to be simultaneously citizens of two countries under US law was recognized by the Supreme Court in Kawakita v. United States.
What if Jason has actually been Mike in a time travel witness protection program this whole time??
Now that his earlier self is out of the picture, he can slowly relax his disguise.
Nah, I’m pretty sure Jennifer is actually Mike.
Y’sure it’s not Sal?
Hello, Mike is Fuckface, obviously???
Well, if it isn’t any of these people, it can only be Blowjob Cat.
Nono! Mike is Amazigirl!
They both disappeared at the the same time. Can that be coincidence?
But, King Dan, where does she hide all the woodpeckers?
In her trunk, obviously.
jason with a combover, huh
Looks more like a combforward.
Self-conscious about your hairline, Jason?
Nice synergy with the reruns, Jason’s performing CPR over there and talking about taking someone to the hospital here.
Cripes, Jason me lad, it’s been yonks! When’d we see you last, can’t’ve been more than a few months but it feels like years. The longer hair and darker brows suit you, mate.
Dude, if Jason has that good a memory for people who’ve used fake IDs, he’s gotta be kicking ass as a bartender. Good on ya, Jason, good on ya.
College town, he probably gets a lot of practice.
I mean, yeah, fair, I remember the Before Times.
I mean his last encounter with Ruth was probably more memorable than most
True enough!
I mean, you kinda hafta remember who’s got fake ID for when they try to sneak in again. Spoken from personal experience.
Speaking as not-a-barman, I don’t get why this matters? Surely if someone’s fake ID was good enough you wouldn’t get in trouble for serving them would you?
No, the law is pretty clear in most matters involving a fake ID. While the person with the fake ID will of course be in trouble ( I believe it’s considered fraud for faking a government document ) the other side will also be in trouble for not accurately spotting a fake ID.

alright! thanks to the 3 of you for that context
*plays “The Hippy Hippy shake” on the jukebox*
You see, I had the wrong band in my head about this particular cut. Which is why I didn’t mention anybody.
And the same band did Keep Your Hands to Yourself. Weird. TIL.
The Beatles made the most famous version but there are dozens. It’s one of those songs every garage band either does or tries to do, like “Mustang Sally” or “I Shot The Sheriff”.
the jason with longer hair. first sighting in the wild
Dang, that’s not a bad look for him
Hold on, Sal said Jason had a student visa. How’s he still here? Either we’ll find out in the next few pages, or it will be a years-spanning mystery!
“Mostly by not thinking about it with every bit of his might”
His new look is probably an attempt to hide from the authorities.
He got kicked out as a TA, not necessarily as a student.
I’m sure Galasso doesn’t care if his minions have student visas or not, as long as they are willing to do his bidding.
I’m guessing Jason’s trying to make himself look unrecognizable to authorities, considering the state of his student visa.
I’m noticing that pretty much all of the Dumbiverse characters post-skip now have immediately obvious physical differences from their Walkyverse counterparts (mostly related to hair). Almost the sort of thing one might want to do if one were planning a crossover. Obviously Willis has said that’s not happening, but then again they’ve changed their mind before…
A lot of time has passed out of universe (since the beginning of DOA, but especially since previous comics), so it also might have been an excuse to modernize the haircuts and stuff a bit.
Sure, if you want a pRaCtIcAl explanation!
Obviously this means we’re going to see the dimension-hopping troupe from Shortpacked! pop into the background.
I mean, in Shortpacked! Rachel mentions how she found a Joe who was still in college…
That was explicitly referring to the Joe of the universe that story took place in, though, since it was an effect of the Tag never getting pulled.
Do we know the status of the Drama Tag in this ‘verse? It could well be unpulled still.
The man still exists!
And Jason is still working for him.
Matching shoes! She did dress up.
She even went to all the trouble of wearing trousers!
Huh, Jason got hot.
Completely unrelated to the current storyline and I know we’re already mired in some story stuff but as a bisexual dude myself I’d like to see Danny get a molecule of character development at some point ngl
He’s gotten plenty of development, though. All of it towards being more of a prick.
Danny? Danny! He was the Bizzaro-World Mike, right?
Might be a while.
That… that happened a lot though, over the course of like ten years. What character development has he missed out on?
Helloooo, Jason.
He wears that hair well!
Liking Jason’s new hair. The change of part-time job might have contributed to it.
Heh, good line, Jason.
Also, considering how many IU students Jason has to ferry to hospitals I’m impressed he remembers individual cases.
Comb your hair, Jason!
Does the loose hair look good? Sure. Does it suit Jason? NO. IT’S NOT JASONY.
Oh, well, I’ll get used to it.
ngl I prefer these eyebrows.
For some reason I didn’t expect Jason to still be working as a bartender at Galasso’s. Last time we saw him was before the time skip, if I remember right.
Anyone else concerned that suddenly Ruth is in a bar that she didn’t plan on visiting? With a few minutes to kill now that her date is “occupied” momentarily? Bad things could happen quickly.
I feel like the mention of ER might be just what she needed to hear. Besides, her date seems to be going unexpectedly well, so, I’d guess she’s relatively less self -destructive than usual rn!
Hey, she’s legal now. It’s fine.
She’s already said she’s not ready to date sober.
Yes, as soon as you reach legal drinking age, the whole “dangerous alcohol dependency” thing resets, and you get to start again with a clean slate.
i think thejeff did a sarcasm?
Oops, probably.
There is a slight chance this is hitting me in the family history, affecting my ability to detect sarcasm (but not, apparently, to dish it out). Today’s strip didn’t help.
Jason is a great guy. He care for the health of the others. Ruth don’t have a chance to order something at the bar with him as a bartender. Let’s hope Daisy will be Ok soon.
Connie: check.
Jason: check.
C’mon, Penny! It’s your turn!
Unfortunately Jason do be looking like a snack though.
He looks super cute in panel 4.
Jason looks… different.
Is it the hair or something?
Something something Mike something something.
He also got thicker eyebrows.
I apologize to everyone for this observation but Jason and the Nostalgia Critic have the same job description, remembering it so others don’t have to.
Am I the only one who is bothered by the fact, that the way to the bathroom is trough the bar (aka age restricted area)?
Am I the only one who is bothered by the fact that the sign to the right of the Reds ad and above the list of Specials says “Mult Billie Hompk!AA/halp”
according to the next strip it says something like “___ beer tomorrow”.
Also I wonder how you managed to read anything of it in this strip – to me it’s just blurry.
In real life the hallway to the bathroom goes all the way across the building – sure there’s an entrance from the bar but also from elsewhere in the restaurant. But Ruth is in the bar, so the entrance to the hallway from the back of the bar is the nearest route.
Kind of expected it to be that way – but needed clarification regardless
ha ha ha, Jason
Wow Jason looks great, actually
Hi Jason
I love his new hairstyle, it looks great
