Beetle Bailey made me think of something I don't know about the Army. It uses civilian employees sometimes right? Is Miss Buxley never seen in uniform A) because it wouldn't be sexy B) because she's a civilian employee or C) both?

It’s pretty common for commands to have both a civilian and military employee in the woman’s roll of this comic strip.

Indeed.


From Robbie and Bobby a thread favorite.

For a serious answer to why Jughead looks the way he does, I think it's to contrast his character to Archie. Archie is usually depicted with a bright, energetic expression, while Jughead is more lethargic. This is also why Jughead is uninterested in romance, to further contrast him with Archie who's life seems to revolve around his romantic problems.

Speaking of romance here's today's Solver 9: Boys Like Fun Part 1, were things get steamy in more ways than one.

Cupping World (one for sharp-eyed readers) refers to coffee cuppings, which are… like wine tasting? Not the thing where you get a lot of round bruises after paying someone £70. I don’t believe in the miracle powers of that sort of cupping.

Invisible Scarlet O'Neil 8/26-28/40

It turns out that Stamm draws appalling black people even by the low standards of 1940. So behind the spoilers it goes.





For those who'd rather not look: Scarlet dives in after Mike and pulls Mike and the old man to the shore -- invisibly, so it appears to onlookers that Mike is doing the rescuing. When the old man revives, he gives Mike some money for "saving" him.

Based on his comment in the last panel, he may have been attempting suicide? But he’s calling for help?
