The Classic Dinette Set is actually not a colorist error.

Working Daze is so bad I can't even come up with a decent way to say how clunky that dialog is.

Super-Fun-Pak Comix is just being paranoid.

So what I'm getting from Intelligent Life is that Barry is the only decent character in the whole strip.

Also Breaking Cat News rules. It's genuinely good-natured and very true to my cat-owning experience

While this has always been true, in this arc it's because Barry is grossly being used as yet another Reddick self-insert. You can read on his inspiration for this arc, which just boils down to he was in the navy for 4 years and he met some homeless vet once.

It's gross because you know Barry will be used as a "lol sports" punchline sooner rather than later.

Between the schmaltz and the �they kicked me out of the diner for being a creeper lol�, Reddick is clearly mutating into the next Guy Gilchrist.

The Phantom

I'm actually curious how he's going to get down on top of Walker's Table unnoticed. I assume the parachute has to slow him down quite a bit and it's not like it's a huge space with a lot of things to obstruct views.

This story bugs me how they keep calluing it Walker's Retreat. It's goddamn halfway around the world from your base of operations.

As several of today's comics have been indicating, today there's a big charity comics auction benifiting victims of assorted natural disasters from this last year! It's a legit charity, so if you have some extra money lying around, I encourage you to head on over to the auction and bid on comics panels from a variety of genres and artists! You could own a gem such as this one:

There are also good comics in there, so it's worth at least a peek!

That third Luann panel feels like a weird 90s time capsule.
