Business is slow

Okay I laughed at a Compu-Toon

I'm pretty sure it's not SUPPOSED to be a meta-joke about Boyce copy pasting things, and is actually just the standard Compu-Toon nonsense but I choose to take it as the former because it made me laugh.

So, let me get this straight - Tracy spent a month chasing this hobo across the country, shot two innocent people during the manhunt, and the closest thing to any detective work he’s done is having luckily read a single article in a local newspaper because there was nothing else to read?

Law & Order, this ain’t.

The guy on Apartment 3-G's second panel is looking to the side like he can't believe this farce. Compare that to Mark Trail's second panel which is supposed to convey...what exactly? It bugs me how Mark Trail almost always has an extreme close-up of someone's face. It'd be fine if it was drawn in different angles to convey certain moods, but James is so creatively bankrupt that he always draws them facing the front like this.

Julet Esqu posted:



We can hope that what he's angry about is that she, his supposed friend, went around gossiping and speculating about his sex life with other people rather than asking him directly. But knowing Gunther and Team Evans, it seems more likely that he's mad that she thinks he would have se...heh...heh.... and put a mark on his fair lady's honor.

In a good comic, Gunther would :sever: because he finally realizes that Luann's a terrible friend all this time. But knowing Team Evans, it's going to be treated as a little spat that goes absolutely nowhere. Oh, and Bets/Tiffany will somehow be at fault.


This made my day, thanks for the edit!

The mechanics of time travel from what we've seen are so hosed. It's not really time travel, it's dimension hopping but the timelines of the dimensions are out of synch, hence the "time travel," but as we saw with that stupid loving comet there are differences between these dimensions (as the future lady noted, that comet was destroyed thousands of years ago in her timeline, which raises all kinds of other questions frankly, like how she even knew about it in the first place if it never threatened her Earth). Even were this baby to bite it in the vents, her (blonde?) "future-self" should still be alive because she's not even from their universe, she's an alternate universe doppelgänger (but blonde?).

Holbrook really needs to decide if he wants science in his comics to be realistic or wild, whimsical magitech. He wants to have it both ways, but better writers who don't have to split their attention between three projects have tried and failed to do that.

So her plan was "steal a big expensive ship and then smash it to poo poo for no reason"? I think I've spotted a couple of teensy flaws with that procedure.

There's already a bat-kid in the other comic, and Holbrook seems to hate using the same species twice as a general rule.
