Ham Shears would fit into Animal Crossing quite nicely. The Dinette Set knows how to make a wardrobe work. Working Daze isn't trying to hard on a Monday morning.

Mister Beeg posted:Also, for what its worth, I know a guy from Portland who's obsessed with Nemi, and he's been a fan years before the strip even appeared here! I was about to post about seeing English-language Nemi collections of older strips at Powell's the other day, but I looked them up and it looks like they were only published a few years ago. Where did people nerd out about international comics before these threads?

I am a graphic designer and Dilbert pisses me off. I have yet to read today's strip, though. Futility, or, Comix. Pooch Café Wouldn't have expected his tail to go running off like that. Especially not before that one ear that's not even attached to his head. Ballard Street Me IRL. Overstuffed drawer full of envelopes and everything.

Maybe Walker staggered into a city park while he was tripping balls on snake venom. Now he's surrounded by news crews and the skull rings are somewhere out in the jungle.

SomeMathGuy posted:Alright, credit where credit is due - they did a pretty good job with that cliffhanger, although it ironically backfired a bit because I was sure something more interesting than "And then he got better, whatever" was going to happen. I think it's going to go into something about Kit thinking he lost the rings at this point.

It says a lot about Hal Foster that his version of Prince Val is gritty, hilarious, and moves at a quick clip, while the modern version has stuck about a hundred characters on a tiny rock for months and I can't care at this rate. It's time for Val to die. Bleeker tells the same joke twice. Pickles goes "OOO-WEE" before it lights up.

Cricken_Nigfops posted:Cul-de-sac "My brother is a vet." Mister Beeg posted:And yeah, Reddick knows obscure cartoons. On Facebook he did a sketch of Deputy Dawg, a 1960s Terrytoons cartoon. But that's not unusual. I'm 24 (25 this November) and I know a shitton of obscure cartoons. I'm still kind of horrified how much I learned about cartoons from this thread. And how readily I can recall information from this thread. I credited this thread a year or so ago with helping me pull the pub trivia team I was on in grad school through to victory (and a keg of beer) because one of the half-time picture question had 'Name the comic strip' as a question; We swept 23/24 on the comic strips (we missed N, which they gave the answer for, but I can't remember. Pop quiz for the topic!). I know most of those aren't obscure at all, but the trivia round is timed and me being able to reel off the top half of the sheet as fast as I could write gave us ample time to work through the movie frames that made up the bottom half. So yeah, again, thank you all for helping enable the drinking problem my friends and I developed in reaction to grad school.

It's All Right Chief Dharma Originally the comic posted only on working days- basically any day you have to go the office. Art does get reused sometimes, but you have to pay close attention. Hm, what other factoids are there...right now we're in late 2009, and the writer/artist is Park Sung-hoon. Don't bother searching for his name- it's a common one so Google will only tell you about the other more conventionally famous ones.

The Ox is a better person than Peter is; instead of punching out the dude who saved his life, he's here to return the favor. Even though when Spider-Man saved his life he also saved Spider-Man's so they're already kind of even, barring Ox owing Spidey a good punch to the face.

Bloom County gets away clean with a bad bit of word-play. Calvin And Hobbes stay cosmocentric, mostly. Just want to point out that the first day from this set was also the debut of Curtis! If I'd been able to find a complete archive somewhere, I'd add it to my line-up, but you'll have to settle for The Curtis Comic Strip Wiki. Ripley's
