Five'll get you ten that Batuik will have the teens forget everything when they get back to their original time so everyone's adult lives will remain miserable.

How about some Plant/Animal Comix? And the mind-swapping story ends with Fish being completely immobile and screaming internally for the rest of his existence, which would be horrifying if it wasn't what he was already doing most of the time. Ballard Street Ballard Burro BALLARD BURRO BALLARD BURRO

The thing did run for 60 years, after all, so it can't have been all bad, right? Right?

Ok, fellas, obviously tonight you're staying where you are, but are you really just going to sit in that spot forever until somebody finds you? Seems to me that it's more sensible to go back to the river and follow it up to wherever you put the canoes in to begin with. Or go back to the river and follow it to wherever you were originally planning to disembark. You've got a pretty major landmark right there, so use it. Luann You think Quill is cheating on you with Jessica Rabbit? The Amazing Spider-Man Pretty surprised it really is Harry Osborn and not the shrink. He must just be brainwashing him instead. Sally Forth The Heart of Juliet Jones Eve! I'm surprised at you!

I dont think Foob redux ever went so far as to add whole storylines, and now it's basically straight reruns.

Foob redux stopped approximately when elementary school Michael met what'sherface her fated wife.

I predict this plotline will end with Prudence revealed to be a leathery hag, and Luann is glad because there's no way Quill would go out with anyone less attractive than her.

Arelon posted:Everett True is so good. Wasn't there a project to have the strips published again or am I remembering something completely different? I would buy an Everett True collection so hard. I don't think this is a full collection of the entire run, but it's all I can find at the moment. Fair warning, once the US gets involved in WWI the strip stops being funny and gets dumb and jingoistic as gently caress, unfortunately.

So, if the Bandar people now get to choose their next leader, they've become a democracy. And everyone knows democracies don't elect the most capable or qualified candidates, they elect the most likable ones. So Guran is going for the "he seems like the kind of guy I could have a beer with" vote while the other guys is shouting about lockboxes and inconvenient slideshows.

[B&W zoom in on Kipawa in the middle of saying something. His mouth is half-open in a weird way] Kipawa says the Bandar tribe needs a strong leader. But he's constantly running to Phantom Head and back. What are you running from, Kipawa?? [now the picture is of Kipawa laughing but he's lit from below] Kipawa says he supports feeding all Bandar tribesmen. But instead he's shooting arrows into our precious eggs. We can't eat arrows, Kipawa!! [Kipawa tripping on Devil's tail or something. I don't know] Kipawa. Wrong on policy. Wrong on eternal ghostlore. Wrong for the Bandar.

Also, I'm fairly sure Everett True has stood up against white people mistreating a black person, but has also lost his poo poo at a black person's accent/way of talking.

I believe there were some early caricatures, but I remember one later on where Everett gets angry at a reasonably drawn, actually-human-looking black man over Jack Johnson beating James Jeffries.

One of the things I enjoy about Everett True is the little slices of culture that are just so strange to modern viewers. Like, multiple strips show that True goes into a restaurant and sits down at a table with complete strangers just because that's the open seat. (Then he beats them up for one reason or another.)

Oh You Kid was a pick up line back then and in a number of pop songs. Lots of men got the poo poo beaten out of them for saying "Oh you kid" to the wrong guys girlfriend.

I always see phrases I want to work into my vernacular there like "whistle the patter" and, lately, "the big apple namer from Washington" but it just doesn't work because people don't get it and I don't like sounding like an anachronistic idiot. I leave that to people like Brooke McEldowney.
