Fingerpori -You have a long-haired cat for sale? -A long, hairy cat Works slightly better in Finnish as the only difference is the comma (I guess calling cat "haired" technically works in English, but it sounds awkward)

Demons of Baseball is good but the pacing seems royally screwed up. Plank has been gone for 3-4 years now? Copper has undeniably won in the game of life and baseball. It's like we're seeing an alt timeline where the Demons don't show up to derail the Meteors during Copper's 100 game streak. They've even got a kid now. It's like Plank is two years late to his own story. Two gut laughs in one comic. I love Boarding House.

Maybe it'll still turn out to be an elaborate daydream Copper Ma is having at the onset of his 100th game, right before he beefs it. Can't believe that hussy couldn't be assed to go on pining for her MIA boyfriend for at least a couple more years.

Nancy 1947 This is the last "plot" of 1947, but it bleeds into 1948, so we won't necessarily see the end of it. Should I double-post until the 3rd, alongside Nancy 1943 so we get closure?

Turns out that sadistic training doesn't work and Planck and his buddies just hosed up their bodies beyond repair.

I am also def enjoying Demons of Baseball and I hope my comments don't sound like I'm being too mean to the only real female character in the strip. Just feels like she is mainly just the prize to be won over anything and Planck is doing a bad job at this haha. Also I don't remember if we've seen this new guy and lady on the last page. Everyone has very similar haircuts and builds Also I'm glad Futaba's concert is going well. Cthlhu idol comic is fun and I should say that more.

Rhymes with Orange Get Fuzzy 12/28/02 Brenda Starr 2/6-8/50 Smokey Stover 1/13/52 I was curious so I looked at some electric blanket ads from 1952, and they seem to have gone for about $25-50 back then. I also noticed several ads touting electric blankets not from the manufacturers, but from local electric companies eager to see you run up bigger bills. Everyday Movies 12/10/35 "Christmas may not be so far off counting by weeks, but it's a long time when you count by minutes." Two strips with unauthorized Mickey Mouse today!

Vargo posted:Francesco wrote a blog post about the REM poster: https://mediumlarge.wordpress.com/2022/12/29/sally-forth-the-r-e-m-poster/ For those of you who kept saying "TAKE THE POSTER ALREADY!"... Mutts Skippy (February 18, 1935) Peanuts (January 6, 1976) Fallout: Funky Winkerbean Nicknaming the robot helper for one of the most ubiquitous costume characters in midcentury American science fiction films is simultaneously a logical fit for this retrofuture schtick and the laziest boomer choice our writer could've gone with, which makes it absolutely perfect for whatever the hell this is supposed to be. That the reference isn't even spelled right solidifies that this is the right choice for the Funkyverse. Tom, I hate to break it to you, we're never getting those flying cars. The future is a exploding Tesla with a gaming console built into the dashboard. Crankshaft Mutt and Jeff Rip Haywire Thimble Theater (July 31, 1939) Olive & Popeye, in which Randy gives us some step-sibling bonding. Out Our Way (September 9-11, 1940, and for those of you who were wondering how OOW would deal with the war, the bombing campaign against London had been going on for awhile when that first one went to press.)

"In this world, is the destiny of a baseball team controlled by some transcendental entity or law? Is it like the hand of the umpire hovering above? At least it is true that man has no control, even over his own average. Man takes up the bat in order to shield the small wound in his heart sustained in a far-off time beyond remembrance. Man swings for the fences so that he may die smiling in some far-off time beyond perception." This started as a joke but the last two lines actually fit pretty well

They can call off the cryptid hunt in Mark Trail. He's right there in panel 3. Sad to hear that about Phoebe. Nickelodeon defending their reputation as having comically wrong and outdated takes as always. Say, what's the last popular show Nick put out? The one that isn't 20 years old. Oh, right, Loud House. Glad we don't have many girls in that one, would drive away the boys.
