The current story is dull but at least Shakespeare didn't write about an alien fairy robot harvesting vampire semen.

Like did it use to be a newspaper comic strip, and then the author was like "I have too much to say!" Was it like "The Creeps" where it just was posted on a comic affiliate but never actually in a paper?

Bloom County There's a few bands that have pulled this sort of thing, with "Do your homework," and "Don't sit so close to the television," worked in via backmasking. Calvin And Hobbes  Barkeater Lake is about a young woman who moves from NYC to a small town. It started off the year with a visit from Satan (no, really), but seems to mainly be about this small dog named Banksy.

All that matters is the Thrill of the Hunt Comix. Pooch Café  Before you judge Hudson, what part of the chicken is the tender? Ballard Street  It really does happen just that quickly. Somebody I'd just met in university once asked me "Hey, do you remember Transformers?" and a week later I had a collection. Now I have five storage bins full of the loving things. I've even got japanese imports in there from ebay. It took years to stop. The next summer I bought one nerf gun. Now I can't open my hall closet.

To add to the confusion, we've got a character named Dorothy and a character named Dorrie.  How can anyone think that's good writing?I used to follow Jane's World long before joining SA, and some of these flashbacks are actually straight-up re-runs. I remembered the furry con as it was being posted, and then this monster truck rally was coming back to me like a bad fever dream. I looked it up, and yep, these are strips from 2005 - 2006: http://www.amazon.com/Janes-World-Volume-Paige-Braddock/dp/0976670755/ref=pd_sim_b_2 So it looks like Paige is doing re-runs framed as flashbacks, with occasional bumpers of new material...? EDIT: I don't know.

Darthemed posted:Bloom County Backmasking was a short-lived moral panic in the 80s, with the most prominent bands/musicians to get accused of it being Judas Priest and Ozzy, the former after a troubled fan killed himself as I recall. To the surprise of pretty much no one, it turned out to be just hysteria, though in reaction some bands did do it as jokes; Weird Al backmasked "if you can hear this you've got too much time on your hands" or something similar onto one of his early albums.

There's even earlier, fairly blatant examples of silly backmasking before then, with ELO including "The music is reversible, but time is not. Turn back, turn back!" backwards in the introduction to their song Fire On High and Pink Floyd including a lengthy message about finding "the hidden message" and to send replies care of "the funny farm" on their record The Wall. Of course, accusations of secret messages of ill intent extend even further back to The Beatles and other early rock and roll tape-manipulators.

ELO got some flak for supposed backmasking in ElDorado in 1974. Jeff Lynne responded in the 80s by giving us the album Secret Messages.
