When I was a kid I used to pore over Prince Valiant in the paper on Sundays, just amazed at it. The art and storytelling got me even then. Now I remember why. That puts you ahead of a lot of the posters in this thread (myself included) who took one look at it as kids and were like, "Ugh! Boring! I want to read Garfield!" and didn't give it another chance until we started posting it here. Kids are dumb.

Julet Esqu posted:Pros & Cons "Sergeant Colon had been happily married for years, perhaps because he and his wife arranged their working lives so that they only met occasionally, normally on the doorstep. But she left him decent meals in the oven, and there was clearly something there; they'd got grandchildren, even, so obviously there had been times when they'd been unable to avoid each other."

Oh christ, poor Heckbender.  I know he's a monster and he was apparently intending to eat the protagonist and her brother, but the comic has done a pretty good job of making me feel sympathy for him, whether it intended to or not.

Wanamingo posted:Lost Side of Suburbia The middle of this arc dragged a bit in the day-to-day format, but that's a loving pay-off.  I also feel a bit bad for Heckbender. He was a monster, but he was sort of sympathetic. Wanamingo posted:Zachary Nixon Johnson Zachary having an encyclopaedic knowledge of gloryholes forced upon him would be the most entertaining thing to happen in this comic so far. Wanamingo posted:Inspector Danger's Crime Quiz Inspector Danger is so far past giving a gently caress he actually counts the shots fired near him instead of just taking cover.

Command Ant posted:Oh christ, poor Heckbender. LtStorm posted:I also feel a bit bad for Heckbender. He was a monster, but he was sort of sympathetic. The setup of the last dozen or so strips is specifically to make us feel sympathetic for Heckbender. Look at how he reacts to the books. He's actually thinking about them and enjoying the time he's spending with the kids reading them. Even here as he's chasing after the kids, it's possible to feel sympathy for him because what he's shouting about is not that, it's that he's feeling betrayed and lied-to. This strip is amazing.

Dear Inspector Danger, I am a Lord who is in failing health and I am beset by my three squabbling nephews who wish to pillage my considerable estate as soon as I die. I wish to donate my liquid wealth to charity and thus deny the little monsters at least some of the worldly wealth they have in no way earned. Due to international finance entanglements, I am unable to withdraw £9,087,529 from my accounts without paying £4,752 in processing fees. I write to you due to your reputation as an upstanding and honest friend to ailing millionaires. If you could provide me with the £4,752 needed to access my own money, then I would gladly reimburse you that amount plus £100,000 before I donate the remainder to St. Wickham's Reformatory School for Naughty Girls, an institute deserving of quite a lot of Sincerely, Lord Peabody Throbottom III, Col., Ret. P.S. This is not a trap designed to lead you into an ambush. Someone would have to think you were an incompetent busy-body to consider so dreadful a plot. A plot, I might add, that your keen investigative wit would see right through.

Gil It's +2 to STR, +10 to LUK, but -5 for CHA Retail  Wow, this store looks pretty overstaffed. You could probably start cutting hours and save a bunch of money. Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog  They're like the thugs of the neighborhood. You do not mess with them. Dustin  Not really any worse than the status updates on your friends' Facebook feed that you probably read all day. On the Fastrack  I thought this was going to be about programmers' bad love life and I'm a little let down. Safe Havens  You have an actual time-traveler in your space crew. Have her do some advance recon.

Wanamingo posted:
Thank you so much for posting this strip. It's convinced me to go and buy the e-book format of this storyline - there don't appear to be hard copies, or I'd put it up in our kids book collection. On a side note, on today's (May 5, 2014) Lost Side of Suburbia on gocomics, there's a villain introduced as a "peddler of bootleg Calvin and Hobbes merchandise" and wearing a "Bill & Opus '84" straw hat. EDIT: Er, or try. None of the links on the LSoS store seem to work. It's disappeared from iTunes, Amazon and Google Play, it looks like.
