There's only a finite amount of happy endings in the Funkyverse, and if somebody gets one, another household has to do without.


For as miserable and cynical as the Funkyverse is, I'm :allears: at Batiuk's naivete in this plot. Soldiers dying in the Middle East being reported as breaking news? He must think we still haven't lost anyone over there.

Wasn't there actually a Dick Tracy villain named Nitrous Oxide fairly recently or is that the nomenclature for the current villain coloring my thinking?

It's weird that you can't see Juliette's mouth in any of the panels. It's like she's got her mouth wrapped around the phone or something.

It's also weird that, you know, Amos is suddenly macking on his girlfriend's mother.

No one else mentioned it, but I have to say, that scrolling by without reading, this stood out as being the WEIRDEST out-of-context series of panels I've ever seen in this thread. So I went back and read it, and it didn't help one bit! Wow, old Mandrake was unique.

I dunno. If RIR is just loving around with the Jojo's-style alter-ego, then it's just incomprehensible. It only gets vile when it lets the children talk in that mush-mouthed misspelled English. Hm.

So, right now, my handicapping list looks like

1 - Momma
2 - Piranha Club
3 - Rose is Rose
4 - Stupid Future Private Dick Comix

and I might be inclined to swap 2 and 3.

I'm at least entertained by Momma. It's reprehensible and moronic, but in an amusing way. Pirahna Club just grosses me out.

Whereas I'm not. Momma's like the Lockhorns with fewer jokes, it's just a collection of non-characters that have no function other than to abuse each other.

e: Literally every Momma strip, scrubbed of art, is just "here is an insult."

The side-by-side position of the footprints indicates that the thief hopped to the Frog's blanket. Unlike sea gulls, woodpeckers do not walk. Their anatomy requires them to hop.

Well there are like a dozen animal witnesses around so he could just ask. And they'll probably help him nab the bad guy too.
