Working Daze is like if Tim Buckley decided to reinvent CAD (again) by making it just as bland and hateful but this time cut away all the cursing and dead babies. It's our loss, really.

Evil Mastermind posted:It's because Batuik really, really wants to be a Serious Writer, but doesn't know how to write with any nuance or how to make an interesting character. Hell, half the time he can't even keep his own plotlines straight (like the whole Lisa's Story Goes Hollywood arc). He also can't write any form of pathos beyond "someone dies", and cancer worked so well last time of course he's going to dip back into that well. It's too bad that the dark future with near-death Crankshaft never went anywhere, even after Crankshaft had a supernatural vision of him. When is Crankshaft set, by the way? Is it still 1999 there, as opposed to Funky's nondescript mid-2020s?

Crankshaft takes place twenty years earlier than Funky Winkerbean but they are both set in the current year.

Just finished catching up with this thread over the last couple of weeks, and man have I missed it. I can't believe how much I've come to enjoy Rip Haywire, and I'm also really glad that people are posting more old comics. Everett True is still is great as always, and old Fritzi/Nancy still owns, but Out Our Way and Thimble Theater are also pretty fantastic. I'll probably read a few more of them now that I'm not trying to power through the thread. Thanks for keeping this up, everyone!

I'd say it's the worst thing about Brooke's comics, but everything about his comics are the worst thing about his comics, but contrast between "wolf bugging out his eyes and hitting himself over the head with a hammer hommina hommina hommina" that we are supposed to be getting from the women in his strip vs the actual ghastly, angular, toothy doodles he craps out is really jarring. They aren't attractive in a conventional, modern, retro, stylish, or any other aesthetic way. He could draw boobs on stick figures and it wouldn't remove the reader any further from what we're supposed to be reading from these characters.

Darthemed posted:Ripley's This Lincoln one gets trotted around from time to time and it's the sort of "technically true but misleading" thing that Ripley's likes to deal in. Specifically, when Lincoln established the Secret Service, they were created to combat rampant counterfeiting that cropped up at the end of the Civil War. They served a solely financial purpose until 1901 when the whole "protect the President" thing was added to their portfolio following the McKinley assassination - presumably because no one gave a gently caress about James Garfield. Anyway there's your useless law enforcement branch trivia for the day.
