Took me a minute to realize the lines of coke were just visual shorthand for "in the 80's". Still can't figure out what the Pong looking thing is beside Little Richard.



Pat Harrington died? I thought that happened a while ago. Anyway, I look forward to the Kelly comic of Schneider hitting on Bonnie Franklin in Hell.

Yeah, that jumped out to me for that particular cartoon as well. Bolling's art is usually just fine, I never really had any averse reaction to the art in any Lucky Ducky, Super Fun Pak Comix, The Secret Files of Dick Cheney or anything, but I noticed the art negatively in that one for some reason. Maybe I just excuse his art because "commence humimicry" is the best two word phrase ever written in a politoon.

To put it simply: the OP is already long enough with the ridiculous list of cartoonists and poo poo. Also, people rarely used it and would frequently ask for cartoons already up there.

I did link the tumblr archive for easy access, which is just as likely to never get used but at least it takes up less space.

I liked it because it showed some amount of actual knowledge of and insight into its subject, rather than a lazy reference to his most famous single song which literally everyone knows. Making an effort to convince me that the subject is actually important to the author in some way makes the tribute seem much more sincere.

I mean, it actually taught me something. I had no idea Bowie was on Soul Train.

He started on #14 last year. I went back to mid november but couldn't find the other 13. He also had one between 14 and 15. He might have trouble with numbers.

It looks like that one was a Sunday strip. Some papers only run certain strips on weekdays and others only run them on Sundays, so they have to be out of the sequence entirely. It's a common problem and that's a common solution not at all unique to Tinsley.

Oh my god I just defended Tinsley what's wrong with me.

If you really think about it, religion is a type of science fiction. According to religion, we are Ghost that control Meat-Robots.

Things that more than 99% of the human population believe are real
[ ] Supernatural powers (like revive dead people)
[ ] Souls (ghost that inhabits human bodies and abandon the body when it dies)
[ ] Gods or agents of gods walking among humans with superpowers (turn water into blood and other cool poo poo).

So basically, religion is a type of Anime, type Evangelion or some poo poo.

Abortion is bad because these people believe as soon somebody body start, the tiny "pilot" (the soul) is already in the tiny ship. Thats really what they believe, but they are too dishonest to say it loud.
