Answer: OUT OF THIS WORLD
(Pretty cool pun! I thought the answer might be a little tougher, because a couple of the jumbles gave me a little trouble, but it was relatively easy to get. I didn’t get it immediately, but it probably took me less than 30 seconds. We actually have a brand new clue word today! Our good friend, ralis95, will have to add “hubcap” to his World Famous Clue Word Database. The jumble “pucahb”, for our new clue word, gave me the most trouble. I didn’t have to back into it, but I did skip over it before coming back to it. The jumble “pettio” wasn’t an immediate solve either, but when I realized it was a compound word, it helped me in getting “hubcap”. All of today’s jumbles came up as new. The answer letter layout was a great jumble! Not obvious. And, the cartoon did a great job setting up the pun. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
PS. Happy first day of spring! The Vernal Equinox arrived at 12:30AM, at least here in New York. Today, daylight should be roughly the same as nighttime. Enjoy the season! — YUR
