Andertoons has seemed to of pretty much turned into boardroom meeting charts the comic and to be honest I'm pretty okay about that.

The author has ads on the buses around Washington, DC. They're all for insurance or something, and they're all boardroom "jokes."

I've noticed those as well, although there are a few in the people-looking-at-signs genre as well. The ones I've seen have been pro-Medicare Advantage.

(Living in the DC area, you see a lot of ad campaigns for various PACs and issues that are aimed at government workers, congressional staffers, and the like. My Metro stop is decorated with a massive ad campaign calling out the SEC director, by name, demanding she take action on campaign finance.)

RIP Mrs. Curly. Let's all take a moment to remember that if Curly was real, he'd have died of natural causes himself decades ago, and that's the real Kick in the Dog Comix.

My favorite Metro ads were the General Dynamics (I think?) ones trying to sell aircraft carriers.

Runner-up would be the Fallout 3 ones depicting a destroyed DC, because that's what I wanted to see every day.

The school being named "St. Godzilla's" is the only thing that I've ever found mildly amusing in Brooke's disasterpiece of a comic strip.

Sadly it's actually St. Camilla's, but to be fair if I'd been a teenager at a Catholic high school I'd come up with a name like that too.

Also for whoever was asking this is the first time the younger nun meets that priest. When I first started reading the strip in this thread the younger nun had quit being a nun to get married to the priest (who obviously also quit), and she was giving birth to their first child in the company of the older nun, who had a weird prolonged hallucination about God and The Owl and the Pussycat. It was stupid and pretentious and told me everything I needed to know about 9CL.

I need to go have a long hard think about who I am as a person for knowing so much about this goddamn strip.

I love that it's apparent that Curly read the news and broke down, and the others took off their hats as respect. The only one who isn't uncomfortably looking in the distance is the old guy, who has surely been through the same news at some point himself. Just great little details.

It's fashionable with so-called "poetry" these days not to rhyme and most of the poetry in this publication follows that trend. Ellie writes real poetry, however, and so it rhymes. This sets it apart from the others.
