Steeple – Brian's Insides Concludes! John Allison's Patreon John Allison's Gumroad store Steeple website John Allison posted:When I started this story, i was a spent force, mentally. Then I caught Covid and was a physical wreck too. What you see before you are the embers of my empire. At the time of writing I feel a lot better. Thank you for reading despite these headwinds. The action returns to badmachinery.com with a new SOLVER story next week. Here's the “cover” for the SOLVER special starting next week:  John Allison posted:The Autumn Special was meant to run in the autumn but then it was moved to the summer. It takes place in the autumn. If I haven’t changed this by the time it runs, I guess I have made peace with certain decisions. At least it’s not about toilets.

readingatwork posted:Big Nate Year 1 () I seem to be the only person who likes Big Nate, and this is why. I don't think we're supposed to see him sympathetically. I think we're supposed to see him as kind of a dick who's always getting what's coming to him. But my sense of nostalgia might be tinted. I'm too young to have read Calvin and Hobbes in actual newspapers, and Big Nate was the closest equivalent.

Selachian posted:Brenda Starr 11/28/48 Say, when was the last time Brenda Starr did anything that could actually reasonably be called work? I remember she almost did some work when she threatened the plagiarist guy with an expose article about how he's a plagiarist if he keeps fooling around on his wife. I want to guess...maybe when the fat lady at the circus murdered the guy whose diet pills gave people a rare tropical disease?

EasyEW posted:Peanuts (June 13, 1975) I find the entirely coincidental connection of these two similar topics in the same post far more interesting than is reasonable. The knowledge that Marcie's parents and grandparents both got married very young is...odd, as is the extremely specific reference to a hockey league (not even a team, a league) that no longer exists. But it's all in the service of the joke and who doesn't love jokes right? Whereas this month's Very Special Episode of Funky Winkerbean is wrapping around to arcane Batiuk lore mostly just so he can remind us that the arcane Batiuk lore even exists.

Darthemed posted:Docks I feel like Huey's complaining rings a little hollow here given that he's spent the last several months complaining, correctly, that John Kerry was an atrocious candidate who was going out of his way to wage a terrible campaign. quote:Retail Aw, this is just cute as hell. quote:Popcom (more Jack Randall edition) I'm not a big fan of the way Westerns are pigeonholed in pop culture discourse given how many of them, Blueberry being just one example, have exceptionally complex and nuanced writing that goes way beyond lazy Cowboys and Indians tropes. But Jack Randall is just like...the platonic ideal of the stereotypical Western. It's so generic it's borderline parody.

Wait, Bets is supposed to have a million followers on Instagram? Posting selfies of herself with confused surprised people? Have the Evans ever actually looked at Instagram?
