Thing uses pistol ammo! There is a reason soldiers carry rifles....

My limited training with M72 consisted of a few rules of thumb about taking the distance and the speed of the target into account, and the advice: "This is a single shot. If you fire this against an enemy tank and miss, your life expectancy is in seconds. You just told them where you are, and they have been trained to anticipate your escape route, so shrapnels will seal your fate, if they don't kill you on the spot." So an M72 is a single shot in several ways. But also any idiot like me can be trained to use it in five minutes, it doesn't weigh much et cetera.

The counter is made of curved titanium overlaid with more countery materials. It cuts down on storage space a bit, but Dora figured it was a fair trade.

Thing uses high velocity ammo designed for penetrating body armor, so hopefully UberPintsize is made of kevlar or has the same thin chassis as usual.
I really want to make a LAW related pun, but I keep flashing to the Judge Dredd movie and getting distracted.

Sunday night was the first time I watched Jeph draw a comic strip, a true WTF experience and pure luck.
Mr. Doctor:
Hhahahaha poor girls, it must suck to have just a regular week while their friends are in friggin space.

Also... Pintsize participating in a conversation without making dick-jokes? NOW I've seen everything.

he's laying low... they're joking, but we all know the robot apocalypse is already being planned... he doesn't want to blow his cover.
