This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.
Alley Oop is growing on me. And if that Mark Trail is real, it's also actually great.

When I want to relax, I read an essay by Engels. When I want something more serious, I read Corto Maltese.


In today's Corto Maltese: A conspiracy within the conspiracy, or The Faliero referred to here is Marino Faliero, who lead a failed coup against the established Venetian oligarchy in the mid-1300s, or Well, I'm sure these boys won't get up to anything worse in the next decade or so.





Before the next update, can anyone guess who the newest arrival is?

Launching the reboot with over a week of strips that said "That all didn't happen!/Yes it did!/Wait, explain to me again what the premise of this strip is and has been for decades?" again and again was not the wisest gambit. It's still not great, but it's definitely showing improvement now that it's out of that rut.

To be fair, he is producing content for three separate strips on a daily basis. If I had to poo poo out content for three daily comic strips to maintain the lifestyle to which I am accustomed, you can be drat sure that they would be nonsense by the end of year 2.

Wasn't it "The Honorable Master"?

And now I'm remembering them saying that the couple fooling around under the table wasn't a "sex thing" and anyone who thought that two people playing footsie then diving under the table was about sex had a dirty mind.

(and can't post for 6 years!)

Hello Goons, Goonettes and TransGoonders! If any of you who are Weapon Brown fans you may know that I am working on a new project, an epilogue to Weapon Brown called Aftershock.

The opening scene is set in a refugee camp, and I want it to be peopled with comic strip characters I haven't used yet in Weapon Brown. This is tough, because I have exhausted most of the recognizable faces.

There is still room for me to use minor characters from strips I have already lampooned (for instance, I've already spoofed Jon and Garfield, but not Doc Boy). However, I'd like to include players from comic strips I never got around to.

So, if there are any obscure gems or "how could you have forgotten...?" characters that you would like to see featured in Weapon Brown, I am entertaining suggestions!

Previously my theme had been to limit the references exclusively to newspaper strip characters, but I am open to characters from popular webstrips and magazines.

Most important is that the characters have a distinctive look... the more deformed the better! Feel free to suggest what their apocalypse gimmick could be as well.

Here is one of the crowd scenes I want to retrofit with more famous (or non-famous) faces. Presently, most of the people shown are just stock post-apocalyptic dregs. Please help!

Only registered members can see post attachments!

You need to give some sort of starring role to Modesty Blaise and Willie Garvin.

Edda was in one of the later crowd scenes. She had fat stubby little legs.

Ah, ok.

I did the recent kickstarter but I should re-read it slower to pay more attention to the background scenes.

I still have all the old original comic books from when it was new, too, plus a Weapon Brown drawing on some sort of card stock.

And besides, Edda should be able to unhinge her jaw like a goddamn toothy snake.
