Poppy O'Possum did another April Fool's thing, and the alt text is hinting at the last time it did this.

I think the real reveal is this is the first time we've seen "Steel Heel" Ofelia in anything other than silhouette. I didn't even know she was a possum.

She had a bit more lore about her gathered from q&as somewhere across the internet. She's a short tailed possum bounty hunter who became infamous for utterly wrecking the poo poo out of a mafia family that killed her husband. May or may not have some degree of Poppyesque freakish strength too, but I heard that part from another source and they could have been guessing.

It's really quite impressive how unnerving Lackadaisy manages to be for a cute comic about moonshine cats.

I remember when Tracy was posting her first sketches of the series (I was still in high school then, Jesus Christ) and it was still this silly, cartoony little thing about moonshinin' cats with guns and Rocky's antics were straight comedy relief.

Now it's a look at the nastier side of Prohibition-era bootlegging affairs focusing on a small cast of broken, directionless people trying to hold on to the few scraps of influence they have in a business they've long since lost, even as it kills them a little more every day. With cats.

e: it's especially jarring contrasted with her side comics, where Rocky and Mordecai are still a zany goofball and a dour straight man rather than a desperate, friendless miscreant with a head wound and a death wish, and a slightly lighter take on Anton Chigurh.

And it's pretty much a given at this point that some and even most of this lovable cast of oddballs are going to get killed, and it's only a matter of who.

Eyy folks, my own li'l comic featuring a demon had a massive website revamp. The latest comic is kinda April Foolsy although that wasn't really the intent. Most importantly, though, I got a new collaborator and she is just so good at things, so we're expecting to do a lot of good this year.
Like Miss Cagle, I plan to start doing about 4 different series this year, but I still got problems wrt having the attention span of a ferret, so who knows. I'll try my best, though.

BTW, Bea, your April Fools page was amazing, and I can't believe someone else has heard of Lynch's comic, holy poo poo

Huh, didn't know you had an account here. Makes it easier to say thanks for the comics at least!

Fwiw I'd have been perfectly happy to see You Suck continue with sketches, if it was a choice between that and it never updating again. Then again I also felt the One Punch Man redraw was mostly unnecessary (not to be ungrateful, but), sooooo definitely don't take my aesthetic opinions too seriously.

There was a period on SA about a decade ago when webcartoonists all over would post in these threads. They've since spread out, and I'm mostly sticking around to talk about Final Fantasy Record Keeper, but that's just how it is. I still like to pop in here every once in a while though... Still alive and all that.

I'll be switching back to sketches if it comes to it, as folks didn't seem to mind it. It's nice to know the option's there, since it's a comic I'd like to always be working on in some way... even if I have to switch 99% of my focus to Slipshine comics, where payment is more guaranteed. It's a bummer, but we can only devote so much time to comics that don't pay off these days; this redesign and such is kind of the final push... :sweatdrop:

I love Izzy's triangle-speak, it's oddly cheerful. Is it actually some kind of complex cipher, or is it just whatever you feel like drawing in there?

Ever since she started using more colors than just sepia, the story has been worth following for the art alone.

I have five more from that guy, and I'll be posting each of them in order. He originally sent 10 but I had to reject two of them for being too violent.

Nivose is from the Philippines and his mother is a diagnosed schizophrenic. I don't know much about how his life is now but he said this whole Bunny Meat process has been very therapeutic.

He drew some pictures for me:


That last picture stood out for me because I've already seen those flowers before in a painting I have on my living room wall:



This was given to me by a coworker who made it while receiving schizophrenia treatment as a teenager. He was doing great now with medication and family support and wanted to get rid of his old artwork because he found them upsetting.

It's a good example of the value of morbidity in art.

The two classic genres of storytelling are comedy and tragedy. The world has enough comic strips, I think it could use some more tragic strips.
