Ok then, contemporary fantasy.

Either way, it's the same universe where Mandrake hypnotises with a wave of his hand, has a 400-odd year old dad and meets weird frog aliens. Normal constraints of physics do not apply.

Starting today, the Comics Kingdom vintage section is going to start running Jungle Jim, a jungly adventure strip from the 30's by Alex Raymond, notable for such strips as motherfuckin' Flash Gordon, Secret Agent X--9, and Rip Kirby. I don't intend to post this regularly since I already post more comics than I can easily keep up with, but I thought I might post a few anyway just to give the thread a taste. Maybe somebody will decide they like it and want to keep posting it themselves. :)

I have absolutely no clue what’s up with the giant pig head sneaking up on Booger. Still, it’s nice to see that his parents still make him wear his name on his shirt every day. Makes it easier for the other kids to remember to call him Booger.

Right? What kind of total jerk doesn't just return that? All "hey, I know you probably forgot all about this by now, but we found something you evidently hid in the attic when you were a kid and thought you might want it!"

Clearly it's his vision of the pig that was made into his pulled pork sandwich. It's like Chew or something.

I went to check the comments on gocomics to see if somebody explained it, but it's just a bunch of libertarians talking bullshit about property rights.

I think part of the joke is that they come up there to have sex and that Janis is being bothered by the sign, but I still don't get the last panel.

They had sex between the two final panels, obviously.

Keep calm and Harry on.

Arlo says they're just going to ignore the sign and enjoy the scenery. Notice the angry expression on his face as he sits there defiantly enjoying the scenery regardless of what some goddamned sign says. Finally he finishes his enjoyment and asks Janis if she's ready to go. She compliments him on his determined enjoyment in the face of potential sign-induced discouragement.

And then they hosed.

They snuck off into the woods to gently caress and he was good at it. The actual loving was done off-panel.
