Ever wonder how slowly time passes in continuity-comic-strip land? Here's a handy measuring device: It's now been exactly a month since Sam Driver of "Judge Parker" was given 24 hours to solve the shooting of Saudi national Bubu Chibale before young Judge (Randy) Parker's girlfriend, ex-CIA (ex?) agent April Bower (Bauer??!!), gets taken in by the cops as their prime suspect. As near as I can figure, it's now about mid-day, and Sam's made some progress: he's leapt to the conclusion after a "chance" meeting with the sultry Monique Zatari that she's the most likely candidate to be the true would-be assassin. What makes him think so? Well, it's a comic strip. Why else would she show up in the storyline at all?
