It could also be a case of phoebe beating Marigold to the punchline, though in that case I personally wouldn't use an exclamation point.

The use of "it is" as opposed to "it's" makes it more likely to be Marigold, though.

Note about "My First Commute": On the outer loop of the DC Beltway (I-495), at the junction with I-270, there's a relatively sharp curve, and at least once or twice a year there's some truck driver that ignores the gigantic signs warning them to slow down, and the truck tips over and completely shuts down traffic on one of the busiest roads in the country.

Other people have been thrown from helicopters (it shows up in the de Palma Scarface, for instance). I'm speaking from ignorance, but maybe the Japanese far right don't talk about Pinochet's use of it as much as the western far right does. It's just cartoon violence, not politically coded cartoon violence.

Thanks for posting that, I was looking for a way to distinguish that kind of cartoon from the Everett True kind of cartoon and that's exactly the difference (although Everett True is not so much politically coded as explicitly political).

The combination of the exclamation point and the lack of contractions forces me to conclude this is most likely a case of a misplacement of the bubble pointer.

So many typos and misspellings in this adventure. It started on the very first page of it, when a narration box referred to the bad guys as the "dark angles". Did they contract out the lettering to the lowest bidder they could find?

Classic Kevin & Kell (May 8-12, 2000), in which Rudy does a really lovely thing.

Reminder: by this point, the social stigma associated with domestication is similar to being gay or HIV positive in the late '80s - early '90s. (Also, please note that apparently everything Vin did was posturing, to hide his insecurity as being domesticated.)

So basically Rudy just outed Vin to everyone (there's even a newspaper article about it!), ruining his reputation and future prospects. Our hero, folks!

Well. I sure as hell didn't remember this bit. The third strip doesn't even have the guts to say that what Rudy did was extremely lovely, just that Vin needs him for support. What the gently caress, Holbrook? :stare:

Boomers are eternal and are eternally terrible.

The Dinette Set is just giving you the heads-up.

Working Daze made me realize that these "Throwback Thursdaze" are probably my most hated thing this comic does on the regular.

Super-Fun-Pak Comix wants to make America great again, probably.
