What bothered me about the animated shorts was that they looked so bad + weren't very funny.

Makes it hard to imagine any network picking these up.

The best part is how at the end, after he escapes, he gradually reverts back to normal as the alcohol enters his bloodstream.

Pretty sure it was Teodor, for the events here. Though that could be the joke I guess.

In the Dark Horse hardcover books (which I wish they were still making :smith:) he writes in commentary for that strip something along the lines of,"People still ask me what happened to Scrambles. The answer is that I don't care."

No, Mexican Magical Realism is a pretty large and important literary genre.

The human animal is a beautiful and terrible creature, capable of limitless compassion and unfathomable cruelty.
Of course it's also been argued that "magical realism" is what literary critics call it when people with Spanish-sounding names write fantasy.

I love that series of Great Outdoor Fight posters. I'd never seen those before.

I'm glad he's at long last publicly admitting he hosed up and is apologizing. I'll believe this is all behind him once I see evidence of it, but at least he's finally trying to set things right.
