Just what other things exactly. nevermind about the lines of bullshit they're feeding him ("we do trust you, but not ~the situation~ of which the very defining factor is you"), or the obvious putting the idea in his head in the first place, that's all par for the course for Foob, I want to know exactly what other things besides booze this couple keeps around that they're afraid of their 15-year-old getting into.

Cobalt-60 posted:I re-read my complete Calvin and Hobbes collection every few years. It's still funny, but the least plausible thing is that Calvin is only 6. What in the world is that watermark? Is this just a really old Something Awful image or do you attach that to all your edits so people know where you first posted it? readingatwork posted:I still quite enjoy C&H but yeah, it was never meant to be taken that seriously. That said I always felt kind of bad that Calvin has no real friends. He really needs a Miles in his life to keep him grounded and channel all that destructive energy. Seeing his relationship with Suzie improve to the point where they're no longer antagonistic would have also been nice. Don't let Will Henry hear you talking like that! Vargo said that to him secondhand once and it made him really mad!

It's a really old image, back from the time when frog edits were new. No idea who made it. I think Phoebe and Her Unicorn is the successor/"in the tradition of" to Calvin and Hobbes, myself.

Classic Kevin & Kell (March 13-17, 2000) Just by the way, completely unrelated to this batch of strips. Remember this? Well, time to bring it out again. Now that the big Bird Conspiracy Arc is over, we'll be adding onto that, and fairly quickly too. (Also, you may notice I've limited it to people who are in a family relationship with the main cast, because otherwise it would be a clusterfuck. Bruno and Corrie are there because I like 'em.)

I just want to say that I really really love Get Fuzzy. The art is great, especially Satchel’s slightly-worried-and-confused expressions, the gags are solid, and the comic never punches down or feels cruel. Bucky’s an rear end in a top hat, obviously, but he’s just a grumpy cat (in a baby carrier ). Also this sloth in the Almanac is killing me! Re: Calvin, as an only child with ADD I really relate. I was never hyperactive in that way, but I was lonely and bad at making friends and definitely a handful for my parents. Some of you were remarking on how sad his life seems sometimes, but that sadness is one of the things that make the strip great imo. There’s just this tinge of melancholy behind the whole thing that really elevates it beyond little kid hijinx without getting maudlin or heavy-handed.

Kennel posted:Dustin So, is the grandfather moving in going to lead to: A: Someone finally around to constantly poo poo on Ed, threating him the way he treats Dustin? B: A bunch of comparisons from Millennials to The Greatest Generation, and yet another character whose purpose is to find "clever" ways to dig at Dustin? Some Guy TT posted:Don't let Will Henry hear you talking like that! Vargo said that to him secondhand once and it made him really mad! It's true! His response was something like "Those people are on loving drugs. Now here, try this cheese." (Will Henry owns a cheese shop.) Anyway, I think some of my comics are in the same vein, but there's no true successor to C&H, nor should there be/needs to be. C&H is kind of its own thing and saying what it "is" exactly will have a lot of different answers from a lot of different people. It's the blind men and the elephant. So a lot of comics can capture pieces of it, but no one has been close to the whole mix. Wallace is close in some regards, but it really lacks the "philosophical/intellectualism" streak that C&H has. (And that's a good thing. Frazz, Baldo, and Candorville all try to do it constantly, and they're all loving insufferable.) BCN Phoebe Wallace Curtis

I'm glad that apparently nobody gave them the story of what happened beyond "a burglary, idk", because that's how normal people communicate, right? Nobody would even accidentally mention that it was her cousin.
