Yvonmukluk posted:Oh jeez, I missed three days! But it turns out I got out of sync with GoComics again, so I guess it works out. Okay this is the strip where I started following on the last go-round. Lottie remains the best.

MockingQuantum posted:I am continually amazed how many distinct and genuinely funny comics Andertoons has managed to build around a line graph and a boardroom table Yeah. It's weird. I feel like it's some kind of a... Hackney comic situation, like two guys on a desert island, but I can't think of another comic which did it? Also, this Bad Machinery is one of the best, if not the best.

The_Other posted:That wraps up the Giant Days x Batman crossover. What are the thread's thoughts? Honestly, I wasn't so hot on it. There wasn't much of a conflict, there wasn't much of a conclusion, and it was over before it could get interesting. It was neat seeing Batman, I guess?

The_Other posted:That wraps up the Giant Days x Batman crossover. What are the thread's thoughts? The Giant Days series is definitely different from Allison's other works, lacking any supernatural or mystery elements and instead focusing on the day-to-day lives of the main cast during their university years. I do think that it might have worked better if the story was a little longer and there was more opportunities for the two casts to interact. It was enjoyable, but I can't help but feel like it should have been a Bad Machinery crossover instead. Yes, I realise I'm just asking for a British Gotham Academy, but I think that would have solved the issue with the casts not really interacting. Of course the Mystery Teens would get involved in snooker crime. Lottie and Maps could probably have some fascinating conversations.

Hello everyone! Well, after Blueberry's last misadventure, we start of our next story in a very unpleasant place, because today: Blueberry seems a little thin in the skin, as it were, or We meet the new villain of the piece, I think, or I'm glad to see that the tradition of prisoner well-being is as high-standard as it was in the past as it is today

Schwarzwald posted:Honestly, I wasn't so hot on it. There wasn't much of a conflict, there wasn't much of a conclusion, and it was over before it could get interesting. It feels like it did the Mark Trail thing where there was a possibly interesting premise, but the person writing it had no idea how to connect it to a conclusion, so the conclusion just kind of happens all of a sudden. 2018 Spiderman 1979 comics Elsewhere: Gee, I hope someone ends up doing something about this "Scientology" thing eventually!

Allison posted the "cover" for the Lottie story starting next Monday;John Allison posted:A new story starts on Monday, the SOLVER 2022 SPRING SPECIAL. I had a big Charlotte story worked out called The Great British Bump-Off, but I got cold feet about it. It was too long and complicated to serialise on the web, so it has been kicked into the longest available grass. What takes its place is a 22-page story assembled from the ideas I had at the top of my head the day after I threw out the Bump-Off. Under the circumstances, I think it has come out well.

Although since the parasites are intelligent too, maybe it's some kind of deal. Do they pay rent? (That would only make it more gross since it makes Fiona a landlord) Selachian posted:Bonus Movie Ad!
