The Perishers (1986) I feel like I need to add some context notes, like the Bloom Country strips. Mr Band-Aid is obviously Bob Geldof. Mr Maxwell is Robert Maxwell, millionaire and since 1984 owner of the Daily Mirror newspaper in which The Perishers was published. (But not anything to do with Maxwell House coffee.)

Flash Gordon Oh come on, this 'arc' was like 4 strips. Did Keefe get sick of drawing the Tricera-Cthulhu? 2005 Spiderman The Amazing The Lizard Magnificatz Laputanmachine posted:I understand now why Americans think Toblerone is ambrosia. I imagine it tastes like heaven if you have eaten sour milk chocolate all your life. How non-Americans got it in their head that we're not familiar with any chocolate but Hershey's is baffling to me. It's like assuming our only pizza is Pizza Hut. But some variation on "poor Americans, completely without access to real chocolate" comes up every time Hershey's does, without fail.

Haifisch posted:We have real chocolate too. Hershey's is the poo poo we give to children and for situations where we want to give chocolate but don't care enough to spend actual money on it(office treats and such), because it's cheap and easy to buy in large quantities. This. I always laugh whenever non-Americans assume that Hershey's is the only chocolate we have. Even within convenient stores you can find other, much better chocolates for sale (although they tend to cost more)

Even within convenient stores you can find other, much better chocolates for sale (although they tend to cost more) Dove chocolate is a good step up without a steep price increase. Then there is Ghiradelli and Godiva. When I lived in Memphis, there was a local chocolatier called Dinstuhl's. That had factory tours and a company store that sold fresh off the line chocolate. There are two things I miss about Memphis: Dinstuhl's and the Zoo. Not the high taxes or the mentally ill turned into the homeless or the misguided attempts to revitalize downtown (like the trolley nobody wanted and nobody uses). Okay, the Redbird's stadium is really nice, but I'm a Cubs fan and they are the AAA affiliate for the Cardinals. I really like chocolate but have low standards.

We also have See's Candies. If you like peanut brittle, they make some tasty batches of it. Thanks for posting Modesty Blaise - that one is on my To Buy list.

They have to have enough people interested at a specific time before they'll do it. At least, that's how it was a decade or so ago when we did it. It was a popular school field trip spot.

Yes, give a heads-up to the DeGroots so they can hire a lawyer to help them cover their asses, but your very next call after that should be to Souffle Lingerie who will most definitely call up their own lawyers to take Ann Eiffel to the cleaners.

Yvonmukluk posted:Bad Machinery, and the SHOCKING CHARACTER REVELATION is upon us! Plus the return of a certain character from the Scary Go Round days. Don't worry, nobody else remembers her either. What was the SHOCKING CHARACTER REVELATION? That the swappy guy was able to swap something? That Mrs Biscuits is not the old woman's actual name? Is it the noisy boots?

I have to say, I don't have a low opinion of Curtis, but I also wasn't predicting it would be the strip to touch on this controversial sociocultural phenomenon without either being hamfisted or making me cringe.

Endless Mike posted:drat. These four panels convey more emotions than I've seen in entire comic books. I was wasting time in a bookshop with coworkers yesterday where they had a unicorn themed display in the kids' section, and I had to check if they'd included any Phoebe books. If they had I would now be known at work as "the guy who picks up unicorn stuff from the kids' section and loudly announces 'now this one's actually really good, you guys'".
