I am very much in favor of giving to charity and helping those less fortunate. I am not very much in favor of self-flagellation. You're allowed to have fun sometimes, kids, and you don't have to feel bad about it!

Besides, I think cooking a meal and dropping it on some poor family, at least the way it sounds like Delta is planning to do it, is more about making yourself feel awesome than it is about doing any actual good for the family (who will likely feel intensely uncomfortable about having a bunch of teenagers show up and... oh, God, I hope they're not planning to watch the family eat the food).

He could have used bar soap, candle wax, or gum. With the old bugs, if you were somebody with a light touch like Willie, you could press a bit of wax or gum over the grid and muffle it until you wanted to let them hear again. Not that I would know anything about that.

On another kind of intel, I was looking to see if there were any new developments in Lost Side of Suburbia and saw this comment from the author (posted in the comments section of the last panel of "The Bogey," the story that just finished):

Kory Merritt posted:

And they lived happily ever after and had lots of hecksuckers and goatbenders. Or maybe not.
Originally the ending was going to be darker, particularly with Biff’s fate. Maybe it would have been less Hollywood, but that ending just felt too incomplete. So this is it.
I’d love to keep going, as I’ve got lots of new stories I’d like to do, but it’s become a matter of time and money. I’m an art teacher by day, and starting last year I picked up some freelance projects that offer some exciting possibilities. But that leaves no time for LSS (LSS makes very little money, and my freelance projects pay very well).
I’m still not convinced this site is a good format for me, since I’m not doing a comic strip here, and I do have a few other options, but I’ll probably be back on GoComics at some point with one or two more stories, one of which I started drawing last summer. I’m thinking maybe I’ll start posting this coming June or July when school lets out. I hope most of you won’t forget me in the meantime.
So thanks so much for following along with me. Maybe one day LSS will be profitable enough that I can focus on the stories more regularly, or maybe make the jump to print, but for now I’ll be mainly working on other stuff. One of the projects – an upcoming syndicated newspaper comic strip, created by a best-selling author and written by a popular cartoonist – is about to debut on another site. And I may post a very short story here on GoComics in a month or so. And I’ll try to update my website:
http://www.lostsideofsuburbia.com
Thanks again!
Kory

(bolding added to highlight an important bit. Nice to see somebody like this getting a chance at a syndicated strip. I hope he puts an announcement on his website when it appears.)

Looking over it, I think I botched something up, the yellow-y artifacts are kinda bad. I'll double check the next one to make sure it's ok.
Meanwhile, somebody should go ahead and buy this, I mean really.

The art in this is so lovely. Like someone said earlier it's so loving static. You don't get the impression of movement or action at all, and that last panel looks like she's only resting his hands on his shoulders or something rather than trying to strangle him. God, the artist, whoever you are, don't you got any loving shame putting out poo poo like this? At least reply-all means for it to look like poo poo, do you?

Wait, what? What the gently caress? So the Nazi was an American spy? And the lady is a Nazi spy? And this is all running parallel to the 'Grandma fucks a Nazi' story still, right? The guy who thinks he's in a movie with legs is the other guy who wants to gently caress Grandma and will be pissed she hosed the Nazi later? And this all started with a grave marker in France that had this guy's name on it, despite that fact that he's still alive? Wait, didn't he storm the beaches and go missing? How did he end up this far into enemy territory? Argh, this comic.

The comic's done by three people, actually. I skipped over posting it originally for the obvious reasons, but here's the meet the creators thing they did just in case anybody's curious.

Really? It explained quite a bit, I thought. Writer has decades of experience, but it's all been spent making the same sort of "loaf-processed humor product" as we're seeing now. Artist just recently broke away from drawing t-shirts -- a decidedly static medium -- and their only significant comics job so far has been in C&L (which may well be the highlight of the whole book), so it's no wonder they're rusty. Inker's a fresh-faced youngster who's probably just ecstatic to have something she can put on her resume. Zachary is the sum of its parts.

I have moved on from being annoyed by the stupid trapeze guy always being on a trapeze everywhere, and now I'm annoyed by the fact that EVEN IF IT WAS POSSIBLE to have a floating trapeze not connected to anything that moves to anywhere you need to be 24/7, THERE IS NO POINT in a trapeze artist simply spending 24/7 hanging motionless by his knees. Unless in Holbrook-world, people pay big money to go to Cirque du Soleil and watch guys compete to hang motionless for as long as possible.
