The last panel here is how I got out of doing any real work during my one Black Friday shift when I worked at Walmart.

Oof this brings back bad memories of being like 8 years old and being made to play football when I had no idea what the rules were or how it worked, and every other kid did.

I spent two years in Little League (third and fourth grade) out in right field, bored and paying no attention to the game. I did set a season record for most times hit by a pitch, though.

Such is the tragedy of pets, you love them and they love you but unless it's a turtle or one of those birds that live a century you will always see them buried before you

I really hate this Safe Havens arc, even more than I usually dislike Holbrook's poo poo.

Wilbur has a gift for picking songs with lyrics that make him look like an rear end in a top hat if you listen to anything other than the chorus. I hope that's fully intentional on Moy's part.

"Cry Me a River" has a really high range for Wilbur to sing, and while "Never Getting Back Together" and "Rolling in the Deep" aren't so tough that way, I'd think karaoke performances would sound really flat compared with Swift's vocal stylizations or Adele's fireworks. Could actually be part of the comedy but that's not coming across.

Jucika "378 - Jucika's Secret Way" Strength attracts strength, it seems! Also super cute. "379 - Jucika And The Last Guest"  Laffo at that panel breaking gag. And look how excited Jucika is in that last panel. These two know exactly what they're doing and it's nice to see

I’m way behind on this for sure, but I don’t know where to go to find out the answer: what happened to Mark Trail? I remember when jackelrod died, but it’s been a few years since I looked at it.

I remember when jackelrod died, but it’s been a few years since I looked at it. The short version is that it was taken over by a guy named James Allen, who was a bit of a climate change denier. Turns out he was also an idiot, because he used the @MarkTrail twitter account to harass congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. King Features fired him without a lot of ceremony and hired Jules Rivera to take over. She's having fun with it.

Little Lefty actually calling out other comic strips depictions of black people as being racist is fantastic. What do you know, even people from the time knew that things we can now excuse as being "of the time" were bad!

What race were all the big jazz artists again, the music he's saying is uncultured?

Did James Allen really just copy-paste old jackelrod art to make the strips? Those strips are insane. This is crazier than the alcoholic stalker who killed himself because Mary Worth rejected him.

Murdstone posted:Looks good? Better than this? This whole arc is one of the best things ever to happen in this goddamn thread. There was also the mysteriously sudden appearing of really off-brand facial expressions in Mark Trail right after the Dr Vargo story, leading to suspicions that James Allen had either already been replaced, or was letting someone else draw the comic for him.

Also, don't forget that the professor had been previously mentioned, and Mark had a positive opinion, and then Vargo tweeted the thing and suddenly the storyline turned into... that.
