The only thing that isn't boring about The Phantom is the evil stuff the Phantom is constantly doing, and given that I'm pretty sure that the author isn't aware of the fact that the Phantom is an awful person, I have to wonder what he thinks the comic is actually about.

goatface posted:Andy Capp is a wife-beating, unapologetic, unemployable, scrounging drunk. He is what the lower classes believe the upper classes think all the lower classes are like, and is what the middle classes secretly wish they could be. He is symptomatic of the class warfare inherent in all British life. Well sure, but according to the Go Comics about page for it: http://www.gocomics.com/andycapp/about posted:Andy and his wife, Flo, live out the epitome of functional dysfunction. From the pub to the bedroom, Andy’s misadventures paint an indelible portrait of an extremely British battle of the sexes. Join Andy and Flo as they bicker their way through life. Their banter can be hostile, caring, sarcastic and adorable: the perfect ingredients for a lasting marriage.

Johnny Walker posted:Noodle Incident! You know, I always assumed that the Noodle Incident was that report on the brain that he did. Also, the newspaper I had growing up didn't have Prince Valiant or Flash Gordon, they're pretty good and it's much easier to get into them than I was worried about, considering how long they've run.

catlord posted:You know, I always assumed that the Noodle Incident was that report on the brain that he did. Watterson stated in the 10th anniversary book that other than that one allusion, there are no specifics about what the Noodle Incident actually was. Much like the particulars of Hamster Huey and the Gooey Kablooey, he felt it was better left to the readers' imaginations to fill in the blanks.

We (the thread) have seen Lio before, the general consensus was initially positive but grew less so when it seemed to only have one joke and to not do anything that interesting with it. That was years ago though, it might have changed.

Star-Trek (Happy New Year! It is now officially 1980!  ) Firstly, I like the playing with the panel borders in the Saturday strip. Nice to see in 1980. Secondly, I also like that explanation of the impulse engine in the Sunday strip. It seems so far that NPST is mindful that a lot of readers will be people like me, that is people who like Trek but haven't necessarily memorized every technical detail. (Probably a good call back before VCRs and the Internet made obsessive fandom much easier to pull off.)  Spock, you're also an unfeeling machine; are you really truly 100% super-dupes sure you can't tell the computer to let us go?  And so ends the first storyline of Newspaper Star-Trek!  Yes, it really is that abrupt. I thought they'd at least end it on a Sunday, but I peeked and the next strip has nothing to do with this one. So much for the ad copy's claim that Sunday-only people won't get left out on plot points, I guess!I'll be starting the new adventure He-Man   I like that Skeletor is a great big skellington man with bones for a face, but still manages to emote (and get flopsweat, if the lower left is to be believed). In the last panel, for example, he's pulling off a great  Everybody in this strip is so cut, even that weird-rear end fish dude. Julet Esqu fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Mar 12, 2017 |
