I don't say it enough but Blueberry is really good. Between Val and Blue, the art is loving amazing. I can't say who is better because gently caress, they both are great.

Given that it's 1940, possibly not, but since " It is used in eye drops as a cycloplegic (to temporarily paralyze accommodation), and as a mydriatic (to dilate the pupil)." according to the aforementioned Wikipedia link, Scarlet's probably going to dump it in Badly's eyes for that old-fashioned retributive justice.

Luann authors just uh, wrote this entire week+ of strips out and didn't reread the dialogue for a second, did they? "Wait a second, all the primary PoV characters are REALLY unlikeable!"

B. Virtanen ANSU Fingerpori A himmel is a traditional Finnish decoration, made from tying pieces of dry hollow reed together with string to form geometrical shapes and then hung from the ceiling. I think they're especially common around christmastime. Gott im Himmel = God in Heaven Gott im Himmel = God in a himmel (Incidentally, himmel is one of the few words in Finnish that end in an L in their basic form (I think there are 12 total?)

In the short term, the ASCAP broadcast boycott meant that radio listeners got a weird, off-brand version of the hit parade, but The History of Rock 'n' Roll in 500 Songs podcast makes the case that the long-term implications were profound. Andrew Hickey posted:The American Society of Composers and Publishers was — and still is — an organisation that represented most of the most important songwriters and music publishers in the USA, the people who had been writing the most successful songs. They collected royalties for live performances and radio plays, and distributed them to the composers and publishers who made up their membership. And they only dealt with the respectable Tin Pan Alley composers, but that covered enough songs — in the early forties they had a repertoire of one and a quarter million songs, including all the most popular songs that the big bands were playing. In hindsight, it was the first brick pulled out of the Jenga tower that was the Big Band Era. That might make it a little bit more relevant to 1946 Archie, which was created in the wake of the escalating unintended consequences of that and the other music-related strike that Andrew Hickey goes on to talk about. But we'll more than likely get to that sooner or later. EasyEW fucked around with this message at 20:16 on Feb 4, 2023 |

CommonShore posted:why does fingerpori have lots of nazis this week What goatface said, + the book tends to have strips grouped by theme; we had a section of ancient history -themed strips earlier, then a set about Allan trying out jobs and going on dates, and now I guess we're into a section of nazis being the butt of the jokes.
