Ardeem posted:“Friend Heloise wants for a sister” makes me think Mozz thinks Heloise is trying to set Kadia up with her brother, and not with herself. I read that as just to be adopted into the family

Vargo posted:All the talk about the FOOB storyline, and the frustration around legacy comics being taken over by webcomics people made me decide to bring back Heart of the City. The problem with this strip is that the art is so chunky, like the characters look like they can barely fit in the frame and are just squeezed in there

And if Kadia's never met Kit, why would she kill herself over him? Mozz really is just making this poo poo up as he goes, isn't he?

Kennel posted:Also I want to share this one I saw while going through the older strips: Every time there's a complaint about New Nancy I think we can just return to this particular strip and know that "nancy and her interchangeable friends are snippy with one another" is an improvement.

Julet Esqu posted:You know, there's a lot that the rando you get on the phone can do for you if you're not an rear end in a top hat to them. I wonder if Kelley has ever gotten a string pulled for him in his life. There's a non-zero chance professional cartoonist Steve Kelley, creator of the Reuben Award-winning strip "Dustin" has played the "Do you know who I am?" game before, and often to people who really can't do what he's demanding. (And good to see you back!)

Minimalist Nancy was a good larf. In today's Blueberry: Blueberry learns the importance of networking, or Say... this Kelly fella doesn't seem like a very nice fella... or Time for a long note - I've done a considerable bit of editing here, but I hope with this explanation, you'll understand why. Now, I have Cartridge saying that Blueberry might be able to escape half-way on the route between El Paso and Francisville and hide in maybe the Driskill mountains. Originally, the text has Cartridge recommend Blueberry hide himself in the Rockies. As far as I can tell, there is no 'Francisville' in Alabama but let's say for arguments' sake that it is in the middle of Alabama. Alabama to El Paso is about 1,240 miles. Alabama to the closest Rocky Mountain range is about 1,285 miles. This is something like telling a person who is on a trip from Pskov to Munich to escape half-way and hide among the Alps. Also, when Blueberry is first getting taken from the prison, they mention that they will be first going by wagon to Topeka, Kansas. Again, from the center of Alabama to Topeka is about 850 miles North-East so... why wouldn't they get a closer train? Anyways, it's not just the geography of the U.S.A. that gets a bit... 'pants-on-head-crazy' in this story... you'll see...

Rex Morgan is kinda weird and interesting in that occasionally they just drop a casual murder bomb in the middle of the most boring poo poo in the world.  Another laugh at Mark Trail today, Jules is one of those "April Fools ends when I say it does" criminals I guess!
