Those two sections might be connected to each other somewhere off to the lower-left? I can't really tell where on the board that's supposed to be so there may or may not be room for that.

He does seem to be playing against himself and not getting any bonus squares so he's loving it up in at least two ways (possibly three depending on what's going on off-camera)

This is really creepy somehow. It's okay for one character to address the reader directly. It's okay for two characters to address each other. It's not okay for two characters to look like they were addressing each other but turn their eyes towards you with LET US TELL YOU ABOUT THE MIRACLE WAR.

Does he just really want to draw Batman comics? Ehh, I think of it like Al Capone. Guy was a murderer, but he got pinched on tax evasion. Anything to put him away.

Lodin posted:Not really. As much as I poo poo on Zelda in this thread I will give Lina Neidestam cudos for putting the strip on hiatus for half a year. That time was not spent on a beach in some exotic place (*cough* Rocky *cough*) but instead she trained to be a better artist. It really was night and day when she came back. Unlike most comic artists who hit it big she actually wanted to improve and did it. What is the new Zelda and what is the old? I get the feeling I liked the art more before the artist got "better." Something about the art in the jogging for beach body strips makes it look kind of like the Simpsons when they went to HD. Like technically it's all a lot cleaner but it looks plastic and static.

Yeah, gently caress having an international alliance system that's brought stability and peace to unprecedented levels allowing our standard of living to expand to levels unmatched in all human history! I say every country for themselves, that worked out so well in the past. The increased chance of an industrial power fighting another industrial power surly will more than be made up for by a small cut to the military. Wait, we're abandoning our allies and increasing our military budget and we're cutting funding to clean water programs? I think Bell may in fact have missed several points.

Was it Bors or Lubchansky that had a four-panel about MAGAs cackling with glee as they trigger libs by doing increasingly stupid things, and I think they all end up being killed by global warming? I know that's kind of a genre at this point, but I've had it in my mind the last couple of days.

The problem with that is that there's still a whole Republican Party with the same policy goals. It would be easy, if Trump left office early, for them to say "well, Trump was just an aberration, now let's get back to serious conservative policymaking." So I don't want us to lose sight of the fact that his policies are not much different from whoever would replace him.
