Ignore the modern records, just go with the stuff from the late 60s, early seventies, it's not that far to go Led Zeppelin -> Paul Butterfield -> The Band -> Emmylou Harris or something pointing towards The Byrds -> Gram Parsons -> Emmylou Harris or whatever if you've got more than two goddamn records on your shelf

The Classic Dinette Set is seen, not heard. Working Daze sets up a new plotline. Super-Fun-Pak-Comix is guest written by Grant Morrison.

Wanamingo posted:Nancy Solid last panel, there: in a brief but agonizing flash of self-awareness, Nancy stares at the ramifications of Guy Gilchrist controlling every aspect of the strip for over a decade. Surely, her expression leads us to assume she must be thinking, no child of Sluggo's age would be so familiar with Frank Sinatra. Not unless the universe she resided in toiled under the yoke of a man obsessively driven by nostalgia for a time where he was not forced by popular culture to confront even the token nods towards diversity and difficulty that current media provides. A nostalgia for a mutable, indecipherable haze confused with the 1950s and 1960s, a time that only exists in his imagination. Her black eyes become indistinguishable from voids as she realizes how utterly alone she is in this realization; she is surrounded by props that perpetuate her hollow existence by providing comfort to aging newspaper audiences by providing familiar reference and safe, saccharine platitudes. Soon, the sweet relief of ignorance will wash over her, releasing her from this agony, returning her to the artificial comforts of tears shed for irrelevant 50s musicians and VIET NAM VETS, but for now... for now she must stare in horror. Ringadingding indeed.

What was the name of that strip that had the clown/mime character that did crazy stuff with the design elements in the comic? And is there an online collection of them? Also is The Bus available anywhere online to read?

The guy scanning The Bus collected it into an imgur gallery, which is here. Panto does ring a bell, but it is resistant to google. It was like... Danish or something right?

Slammy posted:Feiffer (click for big) Sixty years. It's been sixty goddamn years. This is social commentary, it's not a stupid cat talking about lasagna, these should not still be so relevant. I've said it before, but the Village Voice and Feiffer in particular was really socially conscious, enough to see all of this coming, and try to warn us. The fact that we can still relate to these strips means that they failed. We Failed Comix. I think I fought those things in Earthbound. Lost Side of Suburbia Okay, that ending was abrupt, but I think it fits. I'll be starting a new strip tomorrow. See you all then! flavor.flv fucked around with this message at 19:01 on Jan 24, 2016 |

F Minus Reminded me of this scene from Roxanne from way back. Mary Worth Getting a little close there, John Dill. Mary looks quite uncomfortable. Rex Morgan MD I guess it's still possible she'll hook up with the chauffeur, but I doubt that's where this is heading.

Bloom County Peanuts (January 26, 1969) Funky Winkerbean Sexual harassment is hilarious when it's old people! Crankshaft Pogo (October 17, 1965) And as our two stooges shuffle off to Buffalo (and we offer thanks that they skipped over 69), we say goodbye to our full-color Sundays with Pogo. If you somehow can't live without it, Whirled of Kelly is still a going concern, and the backlog has plenty that you may have missed. Weekday Pogo strips will keep going until my demands are met or until I catch up with where I started. Whichever comes first.

I think every comic artist working today will agree that Pogo is a huge influence, and a huge influence on their other influences.

Raskolnikov38 posted:Jesus christ, we had like a solid month and a half of lead up to the meddle of getting the homeless baker a job right? Basically, what I'm getting at here is that I'm going to be angry at this comic when the homeless guy magically is revealed as a baker and the stalker mysteriously gets the authority (and budget) to hire him and Mary gets to take a three-week victory lap for making it all happen by putting a dollar in a cup.

Trilobite posted:I'm not doubting you, but was the homeless guy even a baker? I thought he just said that his wife and kid died and his company (no specific industry mentioned) laid him off. Plus, ol' Mary-Stalking John Dill there isn't even the owner of Pierre's bakery, he's just some apprentice/cake-slave and by all rights shouldn't be able to hire or fire anyone. I mean, he won one cake-decorating contest. ONE. And that was in loving Santa Royale, CA, where fine cuisine goes to die. He's lucky that Pierre isn't making him sleep in the dumpster out back and clean the goddamn ovens with a toothbrush. I went backed and checked turns out I misrememberd. He wasn't a baker but the demon child has already destined his replacement career as such.

The Classic Dinette Set doesn't even read the articles. Working Daze is somebody's fetish. Super-Fun-Pak-Comix is well too aware of its situation.
