amigolupus posted:Modesty Blaise is really unique in how Modesty has multiple casual boyfriends across the globe and it's never portrayed as a bad thing. Her boyfriends understand that Modesty can choose to spend months with one of them and none of them get jealous about it or think bad of the others. I actually went through my copy of The Modesty Blaise Companion and counted Modesty's boyfriends (or bedfellows as the guide often refers to them) and Willie's girlfriends. My results:
# of Modesty's boyfriends that appear more than once: 3 # of Modesty's boyfriends that get killed: 3 # of Willie's girlfriends: 22 # of Willie's girlfriends that appear more than once: 4 # of Willie's girlfriends that appear once only to be stood up because he has to go help Modesty: 3 # of Willie's girlfriends that appear once only to be stood up because he has to go help an elephant: 1

Luann does have a Sunday strip, but I don't post it here partly because it almost never follows the story continuity and also partly because I don't want to. (If anybody has a strong feeling like this thread needs more Luann and wants to post the Sundays, feel free.) Instead, every Sunday I post Junk Drawer, a one-panel gag strip by Ellis Rosen. Not much to say about it, other than I like it. It generally runs three days a week, though the last few weeks it's been fewer (presumably for holiday-related reasons). This week, we get two:

Scary Gary Gary is a schlubby, sensitive vampire who has moved to the American suburbs.  His household includes his evil henchman Leopold, a monster with human parents:    Leopold inherited his mother's scientific bent, and conducts experiments in the basement of the house; one of these experiments is Travis, an optimistic head in a jar.  The household also contains Owen, a depressed ghost.  Leopold enjoys hanging out at a dive bar called The Hammered Henchman:  Leopold isn't all that impressed with Gary:  Gary is chronically single, but Leopold periodically dates the Fifty-Foot Woman, and he's also pursued by Beatrice, a creepy little girl with a crush on him. Other characters include a gay couple consisting of a pair of Frankenstein's monsters, Steve and Frank.     2021 strips    EDIT: more crossover action!

So it's already Monday the 4th of January in England, which means that John Allison has posted the first page from his new webcomic Circus Windows starring Mildred Haversham and Charlotte Meredith Grote! It looks like the comic will follow a M-W-F schedule. I don't know if i should post it here as it's not a newspaper comic, but Allison's Tackleford series is pretty popular with readers of this thread. Here is the website   John Allison posted:If you're a chronology fan, this story takes place a couple of months after Wicked Things, and two-and-a-half years after the end of Bad Machinery. If you prefer to read it in webcomic form, or just comment as the pages go up, it is running at badmachinery.com (because the old Scary Go Round site is collapsing around my ears).

Buni Rhymes with Orange  Is it just me or is it kinda weird to do a joke about grass skirts and have the characters wearing them all be Caucasian-colored? Get Fuzzy 1/3/01  Brenda Starr 4/15/45  The "why isn't he in uniform?" would be more of a zinger if Messick hadn't been carefully avoiding any explanation of why none of the men in the strip are in the service (although Pesky has an excuse, being underage).

I'm guessing all this focus on these two having a domestic life is Holbrook is setting up these two to finally get married. Who knows, maybe Rudy will finally stop looking like a 12-year old by then.

I get if Kevin would be the one making this observation, but I find Rudy and Lindesfarne being the ones to say just a little creepy, especially with all the focus on Kell taking off her bathrobe in the previous panels. It's like, if my mom was taking hours in the bathroom I'd just think she was just enjoying a really long soak in a bathtub, not that she's admiring her figure in the nude in front of the mirror. Green Intern posted:Why are all the Temps nude. WHY ARE ALL THE TEMPS NUDE? Look, you got to teach them early on that they can never hide anything from their bosses. You've seen how Ms. Trellis treats everyone in Fastrack. Everyone's already accepted her constant invasions into their privacy, with Dethany even thanking her for it.
