I'm starting a new comic strip for my Stern posts, called "Flipper Funnies." Here is the first installment!

That's a 1978 Monte Rosa (Sega) machine in the last panel, which seemed appropriate. I also used some info from EverestHistory.com to get a real Sherpa and mountain climber from the October 2, 1979 summit. So this could have happened... if Ozzy was a real guy. Anyway, I brainstormed a million more pinball gags, so there's more where this came from!
