Skippy (August 15, 1927, and yes, we just skipped a couple of weeks; Crosby must've taken another vacation.)  Peanuts (October 23, 1967)  Funky Winkerbean launches himself into the void.  Popeye  Rip Haywire  Out Our Way (November 23-24, 1925)   That accent over the O is kind of throwing me. Is he a Hungarian outlaw? EasyEW fucked around with this message at 12:19 on Oct 20, 2014 |

See, first I thought, well there's your explanation - fat creep has "handy" sweatshirts (like feety-pajamas), but then I remembered that his fingers keep falling off, so that can't be true either! I love this comic.

And, apparently they're not really herbivores but omnivores. C'mon Holbrook, you should have a separate grouping for omnivores. I'm sure they'd call discrimination if they're constantly lumped in with the herbivores.

Mehuyael posted:Is Deanna the one who dies in the car crash? Makes these comics kind of morbid. In real life, yeah. In the comic, she lives and Michael gets a talking-to about his bad behavior at the crash, and then Michael and Deanna get married and live happily ever after and he says that he can't imagine possibly being any happier than with his wife and the children she bore him, after real-life Michael came out of the closet. Also, I'm liking Poptropica a lot more than I thought I would when it first started getting posted. It's not fantastic, but it's fun in a silly sort of way and some of the jokes have made me smile. Jorge's weird bug face with the lack of nose and the huge eyes sticking above his head gross me out, though. The other kid's the same way but at least his big hair sort of hides it.

Paul Gilligan writes good gags, and we've all seen how good Kory Merritt's art can be in Lost Side of Suburbia. A good creative team can easily overcome the inherent soullessness of a marketing tie-in. The lead writer of the G.I. Joe comics back in the day wrote introspective, personal stories based on the challenges he faced as a Japanese-American, the fact that they starred uzi-wielding cyborg ninjas was incidental. Although somebody really should have told Snake Eyes that he was Looking Ridiculous Comix. Pooch Café  Congratulations, Poncho, you made her head look like one of your weird deformed clover paws.

Sergio Aragones The Lighter Side of...    Don Martin Dept. (MAD #29, September 1956) This was Don Martin's first comic for MAD. At the time, "Alfred E. Neuman" was just some name that showed up in MAD a lot as a gag (like "Melvin" during Kurtzman's reign). The name wasn't used to refer to the mascot until later.

Luann Bern, you had the perfect opportunity to say, "Terrifying," and you didn't take it. I'm pretty disappointed in you, to be honest. The Amazing Spider-Man  Speaking of "terrifying," check the anatomy in the middle panel. Nice pelvis, Pete. Yikes. Apartment 3-G  For the second storyline in a row, the blonde woman who looks exactly like Lu Ann is not Lu Ann. (And last time we saw Lu Ann, she did not look like Lu Ann.) Pros & Cons  Sally Forth

TofuDiva posted:This looks and sounds like a repeat from a couple of stories ago. Wasn't Evan one of the interchangeable manipulative bad-guy boyfriends? The name Skyler seems familiar too. They are characters from the past. I'm pretty sure I was even posting this while their plot occurred. A3G is so homogenous, though, that I don't remember what happened. Josh kind of recapped it: The Comics Curmudgeon posted:Well, this is certainly the most shocking development in Apartment 3-G in some time: during Tommie’s multi-month absence, Margo hasn’t gotten bored and come up some new vaguely aspirational business plan, but has instead continued to be a publicist when the plot demands it! You might remember Skyler as the young starlet who Margo’s employee/sex slave/secret enemy Evan flirted with so that Margo would refuse to take her on as a client. Skyler used to be a brunette and then had black hair and now is a blonde, which is par for the course for actresses, I suppose. Less realistic is that she’s wearing a shapeless pink sweatshirt, or that she now looks more or less exactly like Lu Ann, or that Margo is a good enough publicist that anyone would try to hire her after she cruelly rejected them for no good reason.
