Selachian posted:Invisible Scarlet O'Neil 6/13-15/40 I've been thinking pretty much this exact thing about this strip's premise. If you're just invisible, with no other abilities or self-preservation, you're probably going to get hit by a lot of cars and people walking around and stuff.

There was some family hero show I remember from years ago called No Ordinary Family where the mom had superspeed. Awesome, cool. So she was racing around finding bad guy poo poo out and escaping and...never wore a loving mask because why would she need a mask or way to hide herself?

I love Mr Sputter. He's like a wholesome Terrible Tempered Mr Bang. Scarlet is pretty good. The right mix of old timey super powered insanity and an actual bit of realistic grounding so far. Artifact Dealer can't die until he marries Bar Owner, you know the rules about my Bar Manga headcanon. Really good Buni there.

Some Guy TT posted:I'm extremely irritated that this is basically the only time we've ever seen Ed express a sincere, spontaneous interest in physical fitness and his wife is making GBS threads all over him because she believes, simultaneously, that pole vaulting is disproportionately dangerous compared to other physical activities and also that it's a dumb sport for babies. It's because the only "eight six" Ed cleared in college was a stack of cheeseburgers.

I'm of two minds here. It would be irresponsible for a man in his early-to-mid 50's to go from "completely sedentary" to "extremely intensive physical activity" on a whim. But also: Kennel posted:Dustin His wife's response is "For even entertaining that idea I will divorce you" because Dustin isn't just written like a sitcom, it's written like a bad sitcom with an icy, dark heart.

He has been shown whining at a personal trainer in the gym and the strip went through an extended period promoting peloton, so it wouldn't be 0-60. They'd need to get him to the point where he run before he can vault anyway. He'd have to spend a year or more just getting to the point he can attempt a launch.

I like how the larger Creep made himself a little dolphin fin to wear. JethroMcB posted:I'm of two minds here. It would be irresponsible for a man in his early-to-mid 50's to go from "completely sedentary" to "extremely intensive physical activity" on a whim. Exactly. It's a sitcom where every female character is a joyless shrew who exists just to mock, criticize, or reject the male characters.

Like, you've got this new couple trying to have an adventure and fall in love and meanwhile the whole time there's these old dipshits wandering around in the background waggling their eyebrows and nudging each other in the ribs like, "Eh? Remember when we were the ones having adventures and falling in love? Eh? Eh?" Gil Thorp

Kennel posted:Dustin This must be an absolutely miserable marriage to be in. God forbid Ed have some fun and make some new friends. Not that Ed is any better to live with, mind you. Also I just learned that they are making some new Peanuts graphic novels that are releasing this month. I may post them once I can get a copy.

Season 7's "Je Souhaite" but it also sorta happened twice with an elephant which is one of my favorite episodes because it's so god drat weird. nut.
