OBH has the benefit that in includes the grandfather teaching the children to play poker, probably the most natural relationship in comics.

I enjoy One Big Happy. It does seem to be one of those that doesn't get much attention. I guess because it's not bad, but not standout good either. It's good, I would say better than most on the average comics page, but it just doesn't pop. It's strange because I'm not sure why. The art's good. The writing's good--the kids are wisecracky without being too wisecracky and are written like children for the most part. I enjoy it daily, but I don't think I'd want to read a big chunk in a collection all at once like I would other comics. F Minus  Mary Worth  Hey, buddy, let's leave the platitudes to Mary, ok? Rex Morgan MD  Secret Agent X-9  X-9's looking around uncomfortably, pulling his collar out "Oh! Look at that you came all the way out here to see me! Uhh that's great, really. Really great! No really I'm happy to see you. Well gotta go on this mission!" Apartment 3-G  A feminist doctor would just kill a man, because that's what they do.

Chimeric posted:Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog This has been harped on, but I cannot get over the fact that a comic full of robots - or any comic in 2016, really - would have a "science project" involving the classical Greek elements. Like... what the actual gently caress is going through the author's head on this one?

dordreff posted:Wait, wasn't this stupid book specifically about the mafia lady's museum? Why would all these museums be buying up something that's basically an advertisement for a different museum? I mean, I know the real answer is "the entire world operates so that it is most advantageous to the Morgans" but still, gently caress off.

Rex Morgan MD Wait, have neither Rex nor June read Sarah's book yet? They keep looking at the book and acting surprised that it's any good. They didn't read any first drafts? Helped her edit the content? Check her goddamn spelling? Sarah just produced a full book on her own and sent it to the mob to print and muscle into museum bookstores and now her parents get to enjoy droopy half lidded smiles at each other?

I like One Big Happy, the art is good, the characters aren't insufferable and the stories/jokes aren't sappy. It's one of the better comics in my opinion.Wanamingo posted:Arlo and Janis People who slouch are the worst. Moomin  Classic Dilbert

EasyEW posted:Funky Winkerbean Jesus Christ, Batiuk, get some help.  Luann  You did not order Korean food. Your guide ordered for you and she picked bugs and poo poo for a laugh. And you did not go clubbing. You walked in the door and did an immediate U-turn. You know, I thought I was just joking when I asked if that was all they did. I thought, "Surely they spent like a week over there and did lots of stuff, but we only saw a couple of things because of economy in storytelling. Comics can only show us a few panels at a time and the Evanses didn't want to spend months on What Luann Did On Her Spring Break." But no. Her only anecdotes are exactly what we were shown. She went there, bought a truckload of novelty shirts, ate a meal, peeked her head into a club, got a good and responsible night's rest, and then went straight home. And that was her big New York trip. The Amazing Spider-Man  This is a weird comic. Sally Forth  Awww. The Heart of Juliet Jones

Kennel posted:Fingerpori Amazing. I seriously wanted to come to the Moominfest in June, but was afraid that I would mortally offend someone with my bad Finnish. Now I am certain that instead, I'd miss an important pun and end up owning a herd of hedgehogs and a large rock somewhere in the Arctic. (I'd also probably never want to leave, but that's a different issue.)
