I should warn everyone that Pop Team Epic can get pretty Cow Tools at time, but it's hilarious. So is Honey Come Chatka, which is more straight forward in it's punchlines.

Yeah Batiuk I'm sure McCarthy would've just let someone he accused grandstand like that, he was just so well known for his polite listening ability and patience. He was definitely undone by a well-reasoned argument and not television coverage exposing him as a petty bully. :rolleyes:

It was far better in real life when Pete Seeger refused to take the Fifth at a HUAC hearing and instead took the First:

quote:

Mr. SEEGER: I will tell you what my answer is.

I feel that in my whole life I have never done anything of any conspiratorial nature and I resent very much and very deeply the implication of being called before this Committee that in some way because my opinions may be different from yours, or yours, Mr. Willis, or yours, Mr. Scherer, that I am any less of an American than anybody else. I love my country very deeply, sir.

Chairman WALTER: Why don’t you make a little contribution toward preserving its institutions?

Mr. SEEGER: I feel that my whole life is a contribution. That is why I would like to tell you about it.

Chairman WALTER: I don’t want to hear about it.

quote:

Mr. SEEGER: I decline to discuss, under compulsion, where I have sung, and who has sung my songs, and who else has sung with me, and the people I have known. I love my country very dearly, and I greatly resent this implication that some of the places that I have sung and some of the people that I have known, and some of my opinions, whether they are religious or philosophical, or I might be a vegetarian, make me any less of an American. I will tell you about my songs, but I am not interested in telling you who wrote them, and I will tell you about my songs, and I am not interested in who listened to them.

No no, don't you get it? It's just "the strip’s tradition of winking throwbacks to retro sexism". It's ironic. :downs:

Like I said, PTE is very surreal at times and is often an anti joke, but I started with a recent chapter opening instead of a normal strip. Honey Come Chatka only started this year and has the smallest semblance of a narrative so I began it at...the beginning. I'll post again tomorrow.

1. You'd think that in any of the Marvel Universes the first reaction a person would have to seeing a big freakin' crazy alien would be, "Uh oh! A big freakin' crazy alien! I better run away before he explodes me!" I would not think the first reaction would be suspicion of mutual attempted date rape. But maybe that's just how these two fellas like to spend an afternoon.

2. Ok, this is a Guardians of the Galaxy dude! I... didn't see that movie. (I know, I know.)

I realize that graphic novels are technically off-topic in this thread, but I want to mention this since there's a connection.



This is drawn by the guy who does "Retail" and "Gil", and it came out few months ago. I just finished reading it, and I consider it fantastic. One of my favorite books so far.

I recommend checking it out if you're into long-form comics. Amazon has it, as well as most stores that sells graphic novels.

I am concerned that your mind first goes to " dudes trying to rape each other" when you read "Spiked our drinks".
