JethroMcB posted:I get that they're just doing visual shorthand for the gag, but the story of Adam and Eve really isn't substantial enough to support a book of that size. It includes excerpts from the tosafist commentaries. hexwren posted:are computoons all reruns from 1989, or do they just feel that way There was a bitcoin Computoon a bit ago. I think it was depicted as a physical coin. They're not re-runs, the artist just fires up the old strips in MSPaint and white-outs any details that need to be changed.

I'm sure they did, there's a rearguard or something minding the boats while they go sack a city.

Archduke Frantz Fanon posted:itll be funnier if aleta needs to scold a blood covered val for not actually grabbing their kids Very very minor spoilers: It's basically not addressed! They rescue Aleta of course, and then they're back on the boats and the twins are there and just fine. Like El Spamo suggests, I assume they left a rearguard who take care of the kids and the boats, but the script doesn't really mention it. Perhaps we're meant to assume this is part of Val "making his plan" in panel four today. Malachite_Dragon posted:If they aren't smart enough to connect the dots of "literally everyone who has tried to gently caress with his family has failed", they're not smart enough to heed the warnings of the proverbial last survivor. "Y'all were stupid; my plan, to catch him in a tiny net, will work for sure!" It's very much like all the people who figure they can take out Modesty Blaise and Willie Garvin.

I have to say, that's been a remarkably long running ad campaign by, uh, Progressive?

It's been probably six years since I been in the newspaper comic thread since they moved it outta wherever it was and I remembered it still existed. Glad to see that Computoon still exists and is still as inscrutable as ever.
