I was worried that now that NK is indoors, he was going to start showing the whole cat like he did on the sidewalk, and ruin the fun.

So John X keeps thrilling us with new daring exploits each week. Meanwhile, the Phantom spent an eternity showing off his collection of items that really belonged in a museum, beating up a criminal he had already caught for no reason, and then slowly being poisoned by a snakebite. Can we just keep John X?

True, but he handled it much more quickly than the Phantom did, and he was (ostensibly) doing it to get information.

EasyEW posted:It's not just the art. The only ones that don't talk in the same beat-you-to-death-with-a-Thesaurus style are speaking German. The rest of them are all the same person without the art, and what's worse, that person is Bulwer-Lytton. I love to hate-read Luann, I really do, but I have to agree with you. *I can tell all recurring characters apart with no effort. *All recurring characters have recognizably separate personalities and motivations *I always understand what's happening in the plot This is not to say that the art isn't lazy, that the characters aren't horrible people with selfish motivations, or that the plot isn't stupid. All this is true and more. But at least Greg has worked out the basics of storytelling as have been handed down throughout human civilization. Brooke has not. Brooke's comics don't feature any of the qualities listed above. Whatever he or his few remaining fans may believe, this doesn't make his work artistic or intellectual; it makes it confusing and boring. Luann may be lovely, but it is neither confusing nor boring. All I can really figure out from the plot of Chickweed is that Brooke really wants to gently caress a nazi. I'm sure if he ever witnessed a nazi loving a ballerina he'd be coming for days.

EasyEW posted:Super-Fun-Pak Comix I'm surprised that Pooch Café hasn't ever done that joke for real. The strip has featured Poop-Flinging Comix before. Pooch Café  Oh, cool, the already impossible weather formation just does whatever the plot wants it to for no reason, just like the real sharknado. Ballard Street  John Lithgow really does not like Jim.

Working Daze actually does a better "bad management" joke than the office comics. Working Daze, meanwhile, sticks to "character has singular trait".

I actually think Luann's art is above average for a newspaper strip but then again that's a really low bar. There's actually some variety between panels and it's not just talking heads. The characters all look like muppets though.

bad posts ahead!!! posted:Which newspapers publish 9 Chickweed Lane? Do any actual newspapers publish Chickweed in their print editions at this point? The last year or two have been so extraordinarily bad even for him that I would not be at all surprised if his editors are just running out the clock on his contract.

And he has exactly one male and one female character model, particularly noticeable in the "3/4 walking" pose.

Lots of catching up to do. Hopefully I got these in somewhat the right order. Click for huge! Luann  Is this how he got all grizzled? By riding an old lady bus? I ain't gonna play Sun City. Sally Forth   She's making conversation. No need to be an enormous bitch about it.    The Amazing Spider-Man    Love it.    I'm sure somebody wants this! No clue what the av text should be, though.

The characters in 9CWL spending the entire year loving sounds about right. Piranha Club   Dick Tracy   Judge Parker   9 Chickweed Lane  Nah, people have been yelling at this strip for much longer than the last three stories.  Can he at least put some pants on before you throw him out the window? Pibgorn
