Did we ever find out why the painting wasn't stolen (or was stashed in the museum after being stolen), or was that lost in archives somewhere?

I think Dustin's creators actually think very carefully about how to draw, say, a vacuum cleaner so their stodgy audience will still recognize it from the one they've had for 50 years from back when things were still good, or a librarian so they'll recognize her as an uptight harridan, or a teen service worker so they'll recognize them as a useless braindead moron. e: I guess what I'm actually saying is, they know their visual cliches.

Haifisch posted:Nope. It's just an incredibly awkward story where I suspect they couldn't figure out how to condense it into a single week's story arc. (assuming it was adapted from a book, which I think most/all of these are?) I haven't really been looking at the Encyclopedia Brown Encyclopedia as of late, but the main reason I stopped was because most of the ones I was looking up were not showing up there (or at least, I couldn't find them). At this point, I think they're either sufficiently-modified to make searching for them difficult, coming out of Sobol's non-encyclopedia-brown mystery collections, or completely original.

Jucika "94 - Jucika As Krampus" A fascinating historical strip today. This is actually the first known instance of thicc demon girls in animation, making Jucika the progenitor of Morrigan and so on. Krampus is a goat demon that kidnaps bad children on Christmas. Or scares them if you want to keep it friendly. "rosszak = naughty" ""95 - Jucika Is Freezing" "hírlap = newspaper"
