Yes, all tribal witch doctors take the Hippocratic oath, why not. Myself, I have sworn upon Hermes' name to post Dog Comix. Pooch Café Yes! My favourite fan art is canon! Ballard Street Herding dogs have a strong instinct to protect the flock above all else, and that includes weeding out the weak and sickly before they threaten the rest.

Midnight Moth posted:On the Fastrack The thing that weirds me out the most about this is isn't the guy Dethany's old Middle School teacher? I always assumed the characters in On The Fast Track were all about the same age. That's a fairly decent age gap. But, whatever I guess. I mean, it happened in Sally Forth, so I guess it could happen here.

What bugged me most in Intelligent Life this time was that the first comic's premise was "hey you should break up with him" and the second comic's was "what why do you want to break up with him??" which is just so... I mean, does he not even read the comic he just wrote?

I'm not sure what this Luann storyline is meant to be saying. Is it just "modern art is rubbish"? "Modern art teachers are rubbish"? "Studying the liberal arts is rubbish"? Is it going to turn out that the idiocy is in fact a work of performance art and they all failed for following along like sheep?

Julet Esqu posted:Luann This. I try not to assume that the story necessarily represents what the writer thinks, but it's getting hard to avoid the impression that the Evanses really, really hate arts instruction. I get that we're supposed to hate Mr. Pretentious Art Teacher, but he is so one-dimensional and over the top that I end up hating on the strip instead. It was the same with Ms. Pretentious Drama Teacher a while back. Yup. Angry about this comic. (Disappointed rather than angry, really; I haven't cared enough to get angry about Luann up until now.)

True to traditional Evans form I'm baffled as to whether or not we're meant to like Zebo, and whether or not the reason I don't like him is the reason I'm meant to not like him. Nor can I tell if we're supposed to agree with this whole "you must remove yourself from the creative process" angle, because on the one hand that's a baldly hypocritical position for Evans to take up, but on the other hand it's not really being openly condemned. Most of all, though, I can't quite figure out if I'm supposed to have opinions about this character at all or if this is just some badly executed "Hahaha man art classes amirite?" "humor."

The Evanses are bad writers but I'll give them credit for being more creative than their fanbase, who would just write the most boring and predictable storylines.

I don't think Luann is going for a moral or anything. This is just "Look at this thing that has happened, there is a punchline in the last panel". There is no message, just a pun and a 'take statement literally'.

I"m not even sure if those are actually punchlines. They could use some punch. fake edit: attempt to take the piss?
