The government should be afraid of the good people. (Especially when they do wrong.)

The government can’t be certain all its workers will participate in treason.

So therein lies some of the backstory of “Travis”.
Now…..How did “Travis” (I’m assuming it’s a nom de guerre) and Zed first meet?

This strip has a whole slew of the things I love about DBD. It’s not locked into a particular set of frames; Chris takes as many (or as few) as he needs to tell the story. It makes me think. There’s nothing I love more than wracking my brain trying to figure out some brilliantly subtle reference or twist. I know I’ll wander over to the shady side of bonkers trying to figure out just who the mole is now – which seems fairly evident – and was when everyone first met him. (or her – could “that beard” be part of a masterful disguise? Zed does call him “him” though.) The references to Zed’s mysterious past in Special Ops…
Soooo much to love here.

I like the author, I like the strip, and I like the people who make comments here.
That Wiener drive left at the DD Club and forwarded to dark gov, “Travis” appearing on the scene afterward in a bad disguise (shortly to be revealed) and current events are totally coincidental I’m sure.
Bwah-haha-ahaha-haaa!
And by the way, is this an example of In Shiner Bock Veritas?

Chris, is the global rotating cloud of “DBD Topics” on your home page your doing? Are you the one linking the topics and updating it? I wanted backstory on Weiner or Travis or DDQ based on occurrences in the strip. How do I search the topics, except by rolling through every word? I saw no Weiner or Travis. I tried “BBQ” but was surprised to find only one entry, and I know BBQ has been in the strip mucho times-o. Just wondering.

3/4/15 is the first appearance of Travis Gallagher.I’m afraid the software for assigning topics wasn’t until
2012 or so, so it’s a manual thing to go back-fastest way now is to hold down the haters button and select a time fram.BBQ is mostly a general theme, so I actually haven’t put that in much!:)

He looks sort of like the stylized Notre Dame Leprechaun logo. Same side view except his beard is much larger but pointed out in the same direction.
I have an ND degree, so by the laws of Progressive PC, I can comment. 🙂
I have no concern about beards, so I don’t care that he looks weird.

Absolutely. Salud! (sips single malt)
“I can’t find Weiner’s drive anywhere”
hehehehe hohohohohoho HAHAHAHAHAHA BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
That’s a funny line right there.
Of course Sam can’t find Weiner’s “drive”. She’s too old for his sexting tastes.
Same suffers from a common ailment among Asian women, called Asian aging syndrome.
She stopped aging at 21 and won’t start again until she’s about 137. 😉
Weiner lost control of his drive long ago.
Weiner’s lucky he didn’t have his “drive” bleachbit and shredded.
But then, we wouldn’t be having so much fun if he had kept it secured.
PS – maybe we can get Zed’s contacts to find the drive that “disappeared” from the National Archives…
Yeah, but I’ve seen that profile some place before…. just can’t remember where… or when…. More Zed, please.
3/4/15
G——r, you sly red-headed dog you. With that chin I now see why the beard was so necessary!
Ok, clearly had no clue to see that coming…I guess that’s why, in the DBD world, Mr. Muir rules and we just hang on for the ride.
SOOOOO, if Trump actually pulls this off 🙂
How YUGE will the party be at the DDQ?
No bigger than it will be all across America!
Let’s DRAIN THE SWAMP!
I knew it. But I’ve seen someone in the real world with that profile, too.
OK, just creeped out self!
Called it!
Now. Since Zed is Chris, who is Travis? Hmm?
Never mind. It’s enough to know that the good men/women of dark gov exist.
Zed’s not me,though he looks like me.Travis is…Travis.
Sorry. Didn’t mean to blow your cover.
That Wiener drive left at the DD Club and forwarded to dark gov, “Travis” appearing on the scene afterward in a bad disguise (shortly to be revealed) and current events are totally coincidental I’m sure.
But amazing. 😉
I always did like Travis. Thought there was more to him than appeared.
And why can’t Zed take Travis’s beard anymore? Derp.
I like a man with a beard. Especially when it tickles soft skin.
I like them when they’re just shy of sandpaper.
Dammit, man, I did NOT see that coming.
Plus, what Polly Cy (good name) said.
Thank you!

Goddamn spellcheck-hold down the chapters button.
‘the haters button’ – isn’t that how the proggies vote?
Travis is not only a great Q cook, he has mad covert skills.
Cool
3/4/15…OO-RAH! indeed.
I dare any here to go there and scroll forward and NOT go OORAH! again…and again…and again.
Can we just go back there?
How remarkable that the entire Clinton & media complex might end up being defeated by a Weiner…
Vote early and vote often, folks…
Since we’re so close to 11/8/16, I just feel like quoting Hiram Mann.
No one survives when freedom fails.
