They could have thrown the camera while it was still attached to the fish eye lens.
Or… they could have heaved the camera lens, camera and the camera guy all together at once, separately or continuously in varying degrees of combinations and contempt.
That’s depending on how Russ acts in the next few strips. Part of me is thinking this will go one of three ways:
1. He doubles down on the contract and makes Joel and co. forced into a lifetime contract that they only get out of when Russ becomes so aggressive he threatens bloody murder on them when they keep telling him to go fuck himself and security steps in to arrest him due to his rampent outbursts and general scorn everyone’s already heaped onto him. Stoned or not, if he does try to beat the living daylights out of Aaron or any of the others, there are still witnesses around them, and they’re all looking to take him down as much as the band is.
2. The incident has him cut the contract because of how pissed he is. After all, if they don’t appreciate him, and the crowd, MTV and everyone else except his dad (who I’m convinced is only going along with it either because he’s just as bad as his son, or out of fear) don’t either, then why bother giving them anything more than an attempt at a massive hospital bill? He’d also probably try and find a way to fire them while simultaneously keeping all trademarks and the name, but be foiled along the way.
3. Daddy finally sees the harm Russ has been causing to all those around him (remember, that outburst was being filmed on live TV) and takes action. The unlikely scenario, but entirely possible.
There is, after all, only so much anyone can take, both here in the comments and in the comic itself.
Anyone else having flashbacks to when Allie called them out over the stolen song? This reminds me of that, only more intense.
Also, I don’t think Russell is insane, only very immature, stupid and socially clueless to the max. He must have had a very sheltered life to not know a single thing of how the real world works.
And, I’ve had this fear for a while that Russell would eventually learn of Joel and Michelle, and demand that Joel dump her for a “hotter babe”. I’m worried something similar will happen within the next few strips.
I know Aaron is gonna get his teeth kicked in… I call for blood. I know this is an alternate version of the old Kevin beating the ever loving tar out of Lindsay. Russell deserves the exact same fate.
Awwww poor Russel. It could’ve been worse.

The camera crew are really rock and roll
Anyone else see Green Day?
RUN!
Mosh pit, anyone?
Well, his swearing game has definitely leveled up from “doodoo-head”, I’ll give him that much.

@JIMENOPOLIX: He said jackass a few strips ago
Welp… here comes the rage.
Also, I probably have a bad memory, but… has Russell ever used swear words before this? (I’m too lazy to go back and check)
Aw snap, he’s using swears…
Hoo-wee… Out goes the manchild, in comes pure rage!
It’s six against one, they could take him.
But don’t chuck lenses, they’re really expensive.
No more man-child for us. The beast has been UNLEASHED!
Oh shit. Time to get the fuck out of dodge. Also, Russell makes Andy Bernard from The Office look mature.
Oh, fuck off and die already, Russell.
Maybe y’all should’ve… y’know, actually left before deciding to have these convos :p
