Comics Review: Regular Show: Skips #5

There’s one more issue left…

Spoilers

The Time Lord, I mean Billy, grabs Benson and plops him down with Skips. Skips tries to question Benson on how to control Mordecai and Rigby, but Benson is obviously too pissed from babysitting them. Skips lets another explosion happens, and this time, he volunteers Billy to take over babysitting Mordecai and Rigby while Skips takes Benson to the coffeehouse in the lodge. After buttering up Benson for a few hours, he suggests taking Mordecai and Rigby out of the park. If they’re away from the park, the explosion can’t happen. Skips rushes Benson to Mordecai, Rigby, and Billy, and all five of them leave the park. As they’re leaving, the park breaks apart, and the real Destruction Lord appears. He’s a pyramid-headed yeti monster, and he’s really pissed from having all of the crap people have thrown into the geyser. Billy tells Skips that to end the loop, they need to destroy the Destruction Lord before it destroys them.

For a 23 page comic (minus the covers and recap page), to be able to dwindle the issue’s story to a paragraph is pretty bad. I actually had to dig to actually make something out of it. This Dr. Who crap finally ends next month, and I could not be happier. This has been a cheap cash in on one of the series’s most loved characters. I think I’d have rather seen a six issue series on Fives, that’s how bad this comic has been. What’s worse, is that it’s getting worse, because it’s going nowhere. Billy sucks as a time-lord, Skips is lost, and I already had to deal with a Groundhog Day plot in Space Dandy. The problem is, Space Dandy did it so well. This is garbage, and charging $4.00 is a crime.
