and before I post the Comic Kingdom comics, here's a sampling of 2007 Nancy by Gil (and Brad) Gilchrist. It's very strange because there's so much Gilchrist here, including cheesecake, Americana, and masturbating to oldies. But at the same time, there's actual gags, the art is better (even it if it is imitating Bushmiller), there is acknowledgement of current-at-the-time music, and a sense of humor admitting that old bands weren't perfect. It's still not GOOD, but it's not the garbage we have now. It's mostly just... weird.

Come back, Brad Gilchrist.

Ignore it. Heavenly Nostrils has always been a fantastic comic if you ignore things like that and just entirely assume the author moved on entirely from their previous phases.

I'm super bummed about Tina's Groove ending. It's probably #2 on my list of current comics, with Wallace at #1 and Heavenly Nostrils at #3. I'm happy she got her dream job, and I'm going to hope that Rhymes With Orange stops being a comic that my grandma keeps putting on her fridge and turns into something more enjoyable for me, but we'll see I suppose. Either way, grateful that we got to enjoy Tina's Groove as long as we did.

I'm vaguely considering trying to see if the entire archive is available on the site and maybe post a couple each day so we can have it from the beginning, because I like it, but I'm also very lazy so I might not. At least not in a reliable fashion.

However, I'm not too lazy to post this, if people want. Let me know if people want me to continue! This one and another one I have scanned are my 2 favorites from the books I have, which as far as I know are all the ones published lately. One of those I did grab from a much earlier thread, the other I think I photographed my book.

For me it was mostly that it made me think of this thing:





Hey, bad news. These days Comics Kingdom haaaaaaates me. I don't know what it is, but, like, broken images everywhere, and it's only getting worse. And CK is the only website where I have this issue. I haven't heard anybody else in the thread complaining that this is happening, so I guess it's just me. Maybe it's Chrome? I don't know. But I can't reliably post my comics until it's fixed or fixes itself.

If anybody wants to take over or even just try to fill in gaps until this is resolved, it would be really cool. I can still do Luann (yay?), but here are my other comics, if anybody wants to pitch in:

Yeah yeah, I know all about that stuff, long long before this strip existed. This strip is good enough that I gave her a pass on all the old weird poo poo

It's mostly that Marigolds 2 piece isn't even covering anything.
All the horse nipples are closer to the rump than the forelegs. And then that just reminds me of that argument amongst Bronies as to WHERE breasts would be on a(cartoon) horse.
And then THAT reminds me of that comic drawn where a MLP OC with huge horse breasts up around their back legs, and would just be squirting milk everywhere all the goddamn time.
