I can never tell if Scary Gary is supposed to take place at night and I don't think the colorists can either. I have done absolutely no research so I am totally ready to be wrong.

My copy of Bootsie's Big 50s showed up today. The artwork is even more gorgeous in print, and it also has a notes section in the back to explain things a modern reader may or may not be able to figure out by themselves. (like the fact that "figures" is an old timey name for the numbers racket). 10/10 would impulse buy again.Hostile V posted:I used to have to do cursive in school and I learned how to sign my name along with the rest of the alphabet. Then I went to high school and all I needed to know what to sign my name for various SAT things and applications. Then I got bored and just settled on my initials in vague cursive. Now I just use three scribbles to indicate my initials regularly. Signatures rule, do whatever the gently caress you want, be nub wumbo all the time. catlord posted:My signature has degraded over the years, and only barely resembles my name anymore. It's just scribbles. I was never good at cursive though. I blame being left handed. Now that I'm an adult who has to sign things a lot for work, my signature is basically just a squiggly line.

Giant Days x Batman John Allison's Patreon John Allison's Gumroad store Forward Slash Scare website for Allison's side comics John Allison posted:I wish I could remember the attribution of “Kenny man” in my head. I think it might have come from a set-to between manager Kenny Dalgleish and footballer Peter Beardsley… but I’m not sure. I always hear it in a north-eastern accent, though. There’s every chance that it could have been a dream I had. No one is ever going to be able to tell me the answer.

Vargo posted:Wallace the Brave Weird thing to get hung up on, but why would a kid this age have a Larry Bird action figure casually? I mean, I guess their dad could've been a Celtics fan in the 80s, but they'd treat that as collectable then, they wouldn't just casually have it out....

I'm 99% sure that Wallace isn't a present-day strip. Also note that in the one where Spud throws that Wallace is next in line with his blinged out airplane.

CommonShore posted:I'm 99% sure that Wallace isn't a present-day strip. Wallace is indeed a present-day strip, according to Will Henry. The kids have cell phones and modern video games, they just don't appear that often because Will himself is a luddite who hates tech and still uses a flip phone. None of this explains the Larry Bird other than I assume all New England children are assigned a piece of Larry Bird memorabillia at birth.

As a native Bostonian, I'll say it's more likely David Ortiz or Tom Brady at this point; the Sox and the Patriots are way more popular than the Celtics these days.
