I'm suddenly remembering that this whole flashback is Gunther telling the story of his journey to Quill and his mom. So every time Gunther is in this flashback saying "And then I told Rosa (/the kindly truck driver/those old bus ladies/that nice woman with the llama) that I had to get home and stop my mom from getting laid," he's saying it to his mom. She must be really impressed with this story. Gunther is a bad son. Sally Forth OH HOW I WISH IT WERE TRUE. The Amazing Spider-Man Juliet Jones Get yourself a decent lawyer, kiddo.

Wait, Nona's in grad school? Then why is she so well-groomed, on top of the dishes, and wearing what appears to be expensive clothing in the other strips? She doesn't even look like she has an alcohol problem! My immersion is ruined.

This doesn't make sense. Yes, hieroglyphs do sometimes represent the actual object or concept they depict, but far more frequently they're read as phonemes, just like English letters. The ancient Egyptians had words for more than just birds, eyes and reeds, after all. It's actually much harder than English to interpret, because sometimes hieroglyphs are ideograms, sometimes they're homophones of the ideogram, and sometimes they're phonemes related to some other aspect of the ideogram (eg: represents the sound at the beginning of the word), and sometimes none of the above, depending on how the scribe was feeling on that day.

Gunther never left home, and was actually in a coma for a couple of months. This is his coma-dream.

Cul-de-sac engages in some low tech winter fun. The Creeps discovers that the Tom Sawyer trick only works if you're not gullible yourself. Poptropica is gross today, you may want to slide your eyes on down to heathcliff, if you don't already. Heathcliff I had a hard time figuring out where his arms were at first today.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I meant what the hell at all three other comics not even trying to have punchlines; Monty is fine.

Skippy (November 25, 1927) Peanuts tackles the escalation of school violence. (January 26, 1968) THE DAZZLING, SEIZURE-INDUCING DICK TRACY-FUNKY WINKERBEAN CROSSOVER! So. Holly just won a cache of Golden Age comics. The bid from Chester that we saw--remember, he's the geek in the mansion--was $50,000, and she beat that, and presumably whatever else he threw down, without the excuse of Her Soldier Son. How much money does Montoni's (a struggling business in a fading part of town) pull in so that she can just sling around like that? Popeye Rip Haywire Out Our Way (June 30-July 1, 1926)
