Part of why Foxy Grandpa works for me is you don't need the dialogue. In some instances it helps, but it isn't strictly required. I know most current strips are "past" visual slapstick type gags, but imagine trying to get any laughs out of almost any of them if they were pantomime strips.

Manuel Calavera posted:Bizarro This comic was almost something else! Dan Piraro posted:I confess that when I was drawing this cartoon, I really, really, really wanted to use Thel and Jeffy from Family Circus as the characters in the museum. I’m sure Jeff Keane would have gotten a kick out of it, but in the end I decided it was a little too disrespectful to his father, the late, great Bil Keane, who was a personal friend of mine and just about everybody’s in the National Cartoonists Society. So just use your imagination for an extra giggle.

Bloom County At last, a chance to use  Calvin And Hobbes  Basic Instructions is a comic written by a comedian, and features instructions for life's tricky situations!  Since I can't imagine anyone actually carrying about it, though, here's Beardo, which cannot get punchline timing correct to save its life.

The only detail is that this would work a lot loving better if, say, her dad had called her while she was in the middle of making out to remind her she's late and needs to be home now, instead of this self-governing bullshit. Nikaer Drekin posted:That would be awesome for sure, but if he were still alive an older Laurence Tierney probably would have been perfect. I even found a picture of him in the True hat!

Piranha Club Too bad the same thing happens when you try sticking a fork in this week's strips. Dick Tracy  Tracy will bend any law to keep his best bud out of jail. Judge Parker  9 Chickweed Lane  Got it, Yancey. Now to go back to the front and attack another British officer. Pibgorn  It's not surprising to see today's strip taking place in the gutter.

Gil Don't you know the joys of a sedentary lifestyle? Retail  My my. It's nice to see someone take initiative. Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog  But Bleeker, you had an existential crisis once too that you got over by having Grammy K tell you to stop moping and get over it. Although Slinkys are good too. Dustin  Why should he be? The happy holidays have passed into unhappy January and now he's just realized that those big juicy burgers on tv are all a lie??? On the Fastrack  "Anything to get you to stop internet detectiving me behind my back." Safe Havens  Useful skill for any budding psychopath.

It's more a complaint about the absurd nature of the internet than spoiling in general.

Peanuts (January 14, 1967) It's hard for a soldier to be intimidating when he's only a couple of feet tall. Funky Winkerbean  Popeye  It's a little less hard to talk about divided loyalties with Swee'pea over the other characters, who don't usually have any loyalties. That said, he turned really quickly, didn't he. Rip Haywire  Pogo (January 14, 1956)  "Don't screw around unless you're ready to give us a near-death experience, buddy." Out Our Way (March 24-25, 1924)   Oh yeah, cowboys...there's going to be a lot these coming. There was a six year period after J.R. Williams dropped out of school where he was either working on ranches when he wasn't in machine shops.  Above: Our cartoonist in his natural habitat. His friend is named Lizard.

I figured I was late to the Breaking Bad party and didn't even think about spoiling others. At least any future Hectorfield cartoons I do will be from earlier in the series.

Bloom County Amanda Palmer does kind of look like a penguin, now that I think about it. Calvin And Hobbes  I believe this is the only time Susie got a strip to herself. Ben seems to have the same set-up as Pickles, but with an art style similar to Cow And Boy.
