SpacePig posted:I just remembered that I have a signed copy of Richard's Poor Almanac that I managed to snag from an online store a few years ago. It's not my most treasured possession, I guess. Maybe when I have some money to spare I can grab the Complete Cul de Sac. I forgot abut that name. Richard's Poor Almanac is one of the greatest puns of all time. Take that Franklin.

Just heard about Richard Thompson. He was one of this lurker's favorites, for sure, and I will miss him. I only learned about CDS in recent years thanks to these threads, but it's now a gold standard by which I compare other comics.

SomeMathGuy posted:Oh, great, now I'm dreading the strip we'll get when Brian Wilson passes away. I'm only half awake, and this strip gave me a hell of a shock thinking something had happened to Brian. So, has Gilchrist listened to the whole song? I did not need the vision of Nancy and Sluggo mooning about when they'll be old enough to gently caress.  Gilchrist, you twat. (also, Fritzie and Thing can rent two beach houses, but they can't buy that little boy a pair of swim-trunks that aren't covered to gently caress in patches? I hate this version of the strip so much).On the other hand, I love that the Mary Worth drug addict eats choco teddy bear cereal. Ms Boods fucked around with this message at 08:51 on Jul 29, 2016 |

Julet Esqu posted:Luann quote:Nice timing, how the import/sense of Brad and Toni’s conversation also match the import of the verses (even if in a new and different sense) in the song, line for line, in all three panels! quote:Actually, I thought the point was that the song contrasted with what Brad was saying, that he doesn’t realize that he, Jonah and Toni ‘share’ a love for Shannon. Jonah is just not as much of a ‘grown up’ about balancing his responsibilities for his daughter with the other aspects of his life… quote:“Thanks?” You’re Concerned because You weren’t THANKED Brad-o? quote:Still waiting for the other shoe to drop. The one where Shannon decides that Aunt Toni lied to her about her father not showing up and made her cry. That’s going to leave some emotional marks. quote:“Brad To The Bone” (♬) fort knox

I'm not sure what this "joke" is even trying to be. Is it just "who wants to go to Germany?" My only other possible interpretation is that it involves people with beards and recent terror attacks.

It's doubly bad because the first panel isn't a set up, it's just a description. "I'm the cat that eats too much." Do you eat too much cat food? Mice? "Lasagna." Edit: That is a better comic than the one presented.

My only other possible interpretation is that it involves people with beards and recent terror attacks. It's an edit. (I thought at first the joke was "brown shirt = Germany," myself.) Also, some shameless copying and pasting there. He couldn't even bother to close the guy's mouth in the second panel?
