Pros & Cons

Welp, I went to do a catch up post on some comics last night and found out my Comics Kingdom subscription ran out! :downsbravo:


So I guess that means that my comics are on hiatus until I get paid, in about a week or so. Except for Luann. Luann is eternal:



Kid, you came home from Peru with the specific purpose of preventing her from having a romantic relationship with anybody but you. Your mom can call you whatever the hell she wants.

The people were ASTONISHED at his doctrine.

Gunther is a complete poo poo and everything he does is wildly inconsistent save for its egocentrism. Terrible writing or an incredibly accurate portrayal of someone in their late teens?

Who am I kidding, it's the first one.

He has a strange pattern to his 'jokes'. About once a week, he'll write something absolutely impenetrably bizarre or blatantly incorrect/misspelled, and then the next week he'll write something completely sensible, and if not funny, then understandable. Clearly, Compu-toon is actually a medical thesis on stroke victims rather than an actual comic.

Have any of the Inspector Danger stories ever used as their "solution" evidence that would actually stand up in court? "You see, your honor, the accused pointed at the right side of the car when referring to the passenger seat, but I imagine that a person from Japan would have pointed at the left side! This proves that he murdered his brother for the life insurance money. I rest my case!!"

Also, what happened to Stephan Pastis? I remember Pearls Before Swine being funny years ago, but not a single one of the recent ones has even made me smile.



This is a joke? It's not even entertainingly bizarre like Compu-Toon, or infuriatingly awful like Chickweed. It just...exists.

They're still talking about the Las Vegas in New Mexico (for the Cowboy Reunion rodeo), and I'm just as disappointed about it as you probably are right now.

Anyway, I just couldn't wait for morning to spring The Last Leg Of The Majestic Dick Tracy-Funky Winkerbean Crossover on you. Go out and purchase a hat for this occasion, because you're going to want to hold on to it right now.

The solutions are always just the inspector's prompt to question their stories, and they inevitably crack under :cop: tough questioning :cop: and confess.

Meanwhile, in Peanuts: Year Two, it's March 3, 1952, and the balance of power shifts irreparably in the space of four panels. (March 3-5, 1952)







You can blame any number of things on what happened to the strip after Lucy came in, but Super-Fun-Pak Comix knows the real score.
