Man, the talking heads in Zachary Nixon Johnson drone on about more far-out futuristic space stuff than any other talking heads ever! Maybe next time they'll talk about a space battle, or time travel!

Here, have a partial catchup post... Piranha Club Dick Tracy Judge Parker This must be the part where the Judge charges people to watch the webcam he 'accidentally' left on. 9 Chickweed Lane Oh, so that's why Brooke has never managed to successfully tell one. Pibgorn Most of the audience already guessed that this production would be a sinking ship weeks ago.

Wanamingo posted:Zachary Nixon Johnson I think I figured out what doesn't sit right with me about this. The art is amazingly static. Even with the motion lines it doesn't look like Colin Mochrie's head actually moved. That's also part of what bugged me about the "I'm the hottest zombie ever!" page. It's just amazingly static art. e: Aardmania posted:9 Chickweed Lane Sick burn on the Nazis, there, Brooke. Seriously, was his goal with this storyline to make people sympathize with the Nazis by having his non-Nazi character be so insufferable?

In addition to being a word that nobody uses, it's pronounced spor-ange and not sp-orange. It's only a rhyme is the most technical of senses, in the same way that hinge or syringe are.

In addition, that page doesn't actually have "sporange", it's a redirection from "sporangium", a word I actually used with some frequency when I took seed plant taxonomy, but never since. I doubt "sporange" is even a word. A better rhyme IMO is door-hinge. In historical newspaper comics news, been too drat busy making a course readings app to fart around in the archives.

Tiggum posted:"Aunt" has got to be the wrong word here. That guy can't possibly be chief Dharma's grandchild. This is really late, but what I think the translation is going for is that the young woman is technically the male relative's aunt, making her the "older" person, and as such, the one that the "younger" relative would ask money from. It would be really kind of odd but for example if your mother had a kid (Billy) at an early age, Billy has a child (Timmy) at a young age, and then you mother gave birth to you some time after that. Then technically, you are Timmy's aunt/uncle (Timmy, being your brother's kid, is your nephew), even though Timmy is older than you. It's a strange set of circumstances, and given the apparent age difference of the characters pretty crazy, but certainly possible. I'm having a hard enough time explaining it in English, I can't imagine starting in Korean and moving on from there.

Retail You can always hope that nondescript red box has some horrible death-chemical in it and will be recalled a month later after the guy has used the contents of the whole box on himself. Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog This is way more exciting than any lame sledding! Dustin I'm pretty sure she asked for something different last year and the year before.

BlankIsBeautiful posted:Heavenly Nostrils Now I have The Last Unicorn stuck in my head, but with all the lyrics replaced with the word 'unicorn.' I tried to get it out by busting out the axe (ukulele) and playing through a cover of Walking in Memphis I've been working on, and now the same thing is happening with that. I have to stop before I forget the lyrics to everything. Just Digging Yourself Deeper Comix. Pooch Café Aw, they're so proud of themselves. Nobody tell them he's already dead. Ballard Street Golf comics? Really? You're better than that, Jerry. Of course, Ballard Street is probably the one strip in the papers where every character could realistically be depicted as an avid golfer.

Bloom County Bleurgh. This is standard policy for all small-town news-papers. Calvin And Hobbes Cheap Thrills Cuisine Dark Side Of The Horse is usually more surreal than this. At least, it used to be; I went back over the past week's strips, and there was nada that measured up to the old dream-jokes.

Sergio Aragones' Drawn Out Dramas Assortments of Sergio's margin drawings, enlarged so that you can actually see them! Comes from several Mad magazines, 1989-1991 era. Don Martin Dept. (Mad #104, July 1966) Thorn / 50% More Absorbent Comix Crossover Extravaganza (February 27-28, 1984) Okay, this is a start of a crossover. In The Lantern, right under Thorn was another strip called "50% More Absorbent Comix" by Steve Spencer, who himself is a professional cartoonist. One day, they decided to do a crossover. Basically, Jeff Smith would tell one half of the story in "Thorn", then Spencer would tell the second half in "Absorbent Comix" right under. You had to read both strips to understand what was going on. It's...well, crossovers were never great, and this is no exception. This went on for TWO WEEKS when it was being printed, and Bone, Thorn, etc. never appeared during those times. And after it was over, it was Spring break at the college, so there was another one week gap before Jeff Smith finally got around continuing the story. Lucky Cow (April 29-May 1, 2004)
