Jucika "256 - Jucika In The Library" "csendet kérünk! = quiet please!" "257 - Jucika's Going To A Ball"  "Jelmez kötelező = Costume is mandatory" --- I wish Blind Alley would actually do more Tell, Don't Show instead of this awkward Show, Forever, And Never Tell that was kind of interesting dozens of strips ago but I could swear that's the third identical foreshadowing strip of a kid dreaming about something sad, to go with the ten strips that the birds are robots and gasp what's this HARD PERSPECTIVE CHANGE. It's not Phantom levels of bad but for goodness sake you've got the set-up down pat, now do something!

I think this Bobbins run takes place *before* Scary-Go-Round, so... it does all work out for Ryan in the end. It's just going to take another seven years of sometimes questionably-drawn comics for us to get there.

somepartsareme posted:Did his ICE arc end with them calling Bill Clinton to stop the deportation, and then sitting down for laughs and pizza with the ICE agents, or did I hallucinate that You did not imagine it. It’s so real and so crazy bad I saved a bunch of the strips in my phone. Mostly because Baituk’s Bill Clinton is terrible, like, hilariously badly drawn.

The_Other posted:I think you're thinking of Eustace "The Boy" Boyce. He died, went to hell with Erin, then they both came back in New Bobbins. I'm thinking of that time in SGR when Ryan gets "killed" by Eisegesis so he can see his murdered French girlfriend again. Only she's turned into a skellington which Ryan isn't into at all. So more of a Flatliners experience than a true death, but close enough.

In today's Blueberry: You can't tell in my scans, but in the colour version, you see that both ol' Jim and Red are now completely white-haired. It really pushes home the point that they are now very old men, or Gamers rise up, or This is almost certainly an allusion to the Trail of Tears genocide under President Andrew Jackson, but of course there were many other forced relocations besides from that. I couldn't go into all the details that such a subject deserves, but as a brief, it was just one of the many, many imperialistic outrages that the U.S. has unleashed upon the world

gleebster posted:Well, both characters have been in the strip for 6 or 7 years. It's just that Batiuk finally gave a name (Malcolm) to the middle-aged looking male teenager I thought there might be a possibility this was the case, I just couldnt remember seeing them in the like 3 years I've been reading this thread

So, I'm having some problems getting this strip. There's a part of the population that's legally entitled to eat another part of the population and everyone is okay with this arrangement?
