riderchop posted:Overboard No one would ever accuse this strip of having competent art, but, uh, where's the bottom of the boat in the second panel? Also, when your self-given drawing prompt is "bags and a diaper" and you cannot convincingly depict either, you may need to admit that art is not for you. riderchop posted:On The Fastrack No one would ever accuse this strip of having competent writing, but this is a real tour de force of Holbrookian moon logic, bafflingly phrased setups, and punchlines that only make sense if you can already take as read multiple elements of in-universe lunacy. Fi (whose full name is "Fistula Breech") proofread something by typing it ("letter by letter") on a computer and running autocorrect, causing her stepson to decide that she "became" "autocorrect" (which he already understands to be a sentient bee that lives in the computer), causing him to desire honey ("...on bread", for some reason). Also the only reason the kid knows that autocorrect is a sentient computer bee is that he specifically got a computer to do his homework on because he's dyslexic, and autocorrect is supposed to help this, which raises the question of why he would be doing homework in some other manner in the first place. It's already complete nonsense if you're approaching it de novo, but if you know all the details of what's going on it actually gets orders of magnitude more incoherent. Really impressive stuff! ukonvasara fucked around with this message at 07:21 on Jul 21, 2022 |

"You once fell asleep in the fire place." Ice cold burns in BCN today. Marry Worth: As obviously unlovable as a responsible, kind-hearted nurse? Well he's also a dork and the writing has made him into a big jealous workplace policy violating doofus for this storyline but pretty funny that Daughter of Wilbur really wears the Wilbur on her sleeve. That dating world poison, the mature adorkable nerdy guy. I really like the subtle touch of Boltar being one of the few willing to risk a stink eye from his gods to show respect to Valiant and his family.

Wow, that secretary immediately noticed some hack was trying to plagiarize Hal Foster's legendary and immediately recognizable work and binned it! Give her a raise! gently caress you, Batiuk. At least nut up and reproduce some Foster panels in your own style. I might not like it but I'd respect it. Mark Trail cryptid sighting in panel 3. And... Yup! A really stupid option two. "Mark, do you want to track a rampaging elephant or go to a spa retreat to write a marketing piece?" Why even have the deadline, will the spa go out of business in the next week?

This Phantom storyline has been going on way too long and sucked all the suspense out of it by being a story that's not gonna happen, but I have to say that "our commander says he'd like us to stop being shot" is a good line and good characterization. It would've been easy to paint Kit as going down the wrong path into zealotry, sacrificing everyone for revenge (nevermind that this is currently a tragic misunderstanding), but that's the sort of charisma and leadership worthy of the Phantom.
