He won't have to. He'll just falsely accuse some random guy off the street and sic alfie on'em. By the time he's done it won't matter whodunit.

The Intelligent Life guy used to do comics for Star Trek: The Magazine, apparently. I dimly remember skimming past them when I was seeing just how far the mag had degenerated and turned into recapping TNG episodes. Let's see an example of what that held.



Well, for one, Kahless isn't a deity but is more like Sun Tzu or Moses, so that punchline doesn't make sense, and also, this is bad. And yet, in a weird way, less obnoxiously drawn, but only a smidgen.

I think it's the weird, slightly manic look that all of his characters get that really sets me off. Particularly that lower-eyelid detail.

I was going to look up and post the last comic the thread unaminously hated, which I remember being called "As If" but I couldn't find it. Very badly-drawn Cathy clone? Eventually we noticed the writing was fairly good?

Okay, I do have something to post.

During my self-imposed exile here, I became a fan of Peter Bagge. I bought two of his books while in LA, one of them being "Stupid Comics", put out by Fantagraphics in 1991. One of the comics is "Generic Comix". Think "Super Fun-Pak Comix" from Tom the Dancing Bug, except nastier. I figure it's appropriate for this thread. Enjoy!

Not sure if pointed out, but the cartoonist is one of Jim Davis's many assistants at Paws Inc, working on "Garfield". He also did a webcomic about a barbarian called "Legend of Bill". I'm a bigger fan of "Groo the Wanderer", personally.

A question: since Bleeker has been abandoned, and nobody much likes Geech, would you rather Bleeker replace the Geech reruns?

Pickles is the story of a boy and a man on a raft.

Maybe just an American thing? It used to be that various businesses would thank you for buying their goods/services by giving you these stamps that you could then paste into a book. Over time if you saved enough stamps you could turn them back in for prizes. My mom swears she got some really nice stuff that way.
