Well, I would have to agree, even though I like Jane's World the Last Starfighter arc was the worst, so no more until I see some new material. It has become stale, so, in the meantime, should I scan Tank Girl even though it wasn't really a newspaper comic (magazine)? Or, I could finally spring for the Dan Dare collection? I truly miss that comic, and there doesn't appear to be any kind of an online source.  Personally, I vote for Tank Girl but that's because I'm a huge fan, so I'm biased. Hive? What say ye?

Dan Dare or bust, and also because the last time someone tried to post Tank Girl the mods vetoed it.

Yeah, I give the Dick Tracy guys a lot of poo poo and I think they well deserve it, but they're excellent at knowing the strip's history and making sometimes unexpected callbacks. That's why the story with cops and gangsters switching sides was so great before they contextualized it.

As much as I love Tank Girl, I don't think it belongs here.

I really want to see some Tank Girl. All I have are these Rejected Cat Comix. Pooch Café  I've got pretty bad allergies and that image is making my eyeball itch like crazy. Ballard Street  Ted recognizes that his discomfort is his own problem and decides to remove himself from the situation rather than be disruptive. A good comic. Lost Side of Suburbia   I have no idea where this is going. I assume 'somewhere.'

Luann You don't know Prudence is moving in with you. Your dad speculated about maybe asking her. Nobody's even talked to her to find out if she's interested, let alone had a chance to determine that she's too old/fat/nerdy/gay for Quill. (Personally, I think it's more interesting if Pru really is a knockout, but is also a nice person and not interested in stealing Quill, nor is Quill interested in being stolen. Luann would then ruin her perfectly good relationship all by herself with her misplaced jealousy. Lessons would be learned. Character growth might happen? Of course, the Evanses prefer transparent villains over nuance, so even in the unlikely event that she does happen to be attractive and available, she's also going to totally be going after Quill.)

So I'm reading this weird 60's pulp sci-fi paperback, The Time Twister: https://vintage45.wordpress.com/2012/09/27/the-time-twister-emil-petaja-1968/ ...And because it drops a lot of references to Finnish "song magic", it reminded me of a comic posted here, back when we had The Moomin Tax. A god comes to Earth (or wakes up after a hibernation?) and has to cope with modern times. He has the ability to make things happen with song. He has a little sidekick that seems a bit more in-the-know about how stuff on Earth works. I remember really enjoying the charming artwork and writing. If someone remembers what I'm talking about and knows where an archive exists, I'd love to see it again! Also, Blank, my vote is for Tank Girl. And we've had magazine (vs newspaper) comics in here before, not sure why a mod would veto them...? Mister Beeg used to post old Mad strips all the time.

Got a bunch of them saved from when they were being posted. Anyway, I gotta vote for Dan Dare, because while I would love to see Tank Girl, I can't think of a link to newspaper strips. The Mad stuff got posted because it was connected to newspaper strips (there was a Spy vs. Spy strip so there was comparisons between the newspaper strip and magazine pages).

JacquelineDempsey posted:So I'm reading this weird 60's pulp sci-fi paperback, The Time Twister: The comic is Väinämöisen Paluu, or The Return of Väinämöinen and it's drawn by Petri Hiltunen. I do remember it being posted here but I don't know if it has an official English translation or was it translated by the poster. It's a pretty great comic either way and while the main character is a very central character in Finnish mythology, the reader doesn't really need to know anything about Kalevala or other myths. The premise is "ancient god-wizard (think Finnish Gandalf) returns to modern Finland, hijinks ensue". Also put me down for wanting Tank Girl as well.

I don't know if you have to buy the Dan Dare collection though, BlankIsBeautiful, unless you just want it for yourself. There's some stuff in the Comics Kingdom Vintage section that isn't getting posted that might be fun to see. Flash Gordon, Mandrake (no one's posting those anymore, right?), old Judge Parker, and a bunch I've never even heard of. I think you can access most of those for free, but if you miss a day or so you might have to pay the $20 a year to join. F Minus  "Now, release the cats." Mary Worth  Mary's word bubble is thinking about Olive. Rex Morgan MD  Gee I just can't understand why Mr Avery and his son aren't closer. All he does is constantly belittle him.

Tank Girl is my spirit animal so I'd love to see people's reactions to it, but being that the authors started writing new material this year, it might draw some unwanted attention.
