Just buzzing it is the minimum socially acceptable effort approach to hair care, with "gently caress it, crazy mullet" coming in at no effort whatsoever for a man who no longer gives a poo poo.

ryonguy posted:This has not been a good arc for achewood, and I posit that the longer story arcs have rarely been as good as the shorter stories/one offs. I don't think Onstad has ever really been that great at long form stuff. His Chris Ware-esque ramblings aren't really up to the same level. I tend to agree, but I will note that one of the few exceptions to this is the Lazarus, Loafer to the Greatest Business Minds arc. That one was fairly funny and had an amazing payoff.

That one was fairly funny and had an amazing payoff. Any one of those strips would have stood on their own, though. It still kept to a good setup and punchline for each strip. His weaker arcs are ones like the Roast Beef Dies one where it's all cliffhangers and drama and you can't enjoy the strip out of context.

I thought the original Cartilage Head arc had an awesome payoff and great build the whole way, i know that's not a universal opinion though.

Ok, Let's say Al Qaeda needed a little video to give its troops a boost, and you were one of like six U.S. hostages. The terrorists are like "Look, our guys haven't had a good chuckle in days. We'll let you go if you stand in front of this American flag and accept money from Nolan." You salute your men, about-face, and open the email. Orlando Bloom plays you in the movie.

It's actually the first Achewood. Teodor decides to throw a party to celebrate his new relationship and invites everybody around, Penny goes home to pick up some stuff and promises she'll be there later, then this happens. Onstad just isn't going to make the update till March 12, sorry if I spoiled it.

It's been a week and a half. This most recent batch of comics followed an unannounced yearlong hiatus. It sucks that onstad isn't communicating but hardly time to write an obituary.
