Hostile V posted:I had to go into the archives for context and I'm miserable now but the long and short is that George got pinched by a bunch of pelt harvesters who were also holding Ophelia having mistaken her for a groundhog (they were after groundhog products) and she's being hunted in the sense that she's running from organized crime. I thought the point was that ermine fur is still fashionable in Murderworld?

I don't get the punchline in that second Archie strip. Was he passing off a rental car as his own? Is he getting a rental so that people don't drive his?

modern logic would say he traded it in to be able to afford the new one, but i don't know how car financing worked in 1946

Our Boarding House, in which our parlor boys regret not packing a tent for their summer vacation this year. (August 9-11, 1923)   Toonerville Folks (October 14-16, 1920)   Aunt Eppie Hogg, The Fattest Woman In Three Counties: Aunt Eppie has always refused to be weighed and it was a sore disappointment to everybody when she woke up just as Zeb White had agreed to drive her on to the Scales.  Dok's Dippy Dots and Dashes (August 10, 1914)  Little Lefty (February 14-16, 1938. Yes, that's a repeat in the middle, and unlike a few weeks ago, it was probably intentional.)

F Minus Mark Trail  Oh! It's...those...people. Yes. The ones from before you see. Mary Worth  I thought that panel looked a little weird, and later I found out the Mary Worth and Me guy figured out it was based on this.  Pretty good nod to Rockwell I think.

sorry, that was mean. I'm still entertained by this Crabgrass arc because Bondia is clearly having fun drawing it, and there's goodwill from tons of good gags and characterization in the relatively short time the strip has been running. Even when the storylines kind of falter and stray, the pace is decent and the day-to-day jokes are charming even if they're not gutbusters. Holbrook can take two good tugs off a dead dog's dick and eat the discharge on his toast.

Murdstone posted:Mark Trail Well we know that Jules or her colorist don't try very hard so that's possibly Cricket Bro and his formerly dark-skinned step brother on the left. Bee Sharp in the middle, Colonel Sanders and his secretary(maybe) on the right. It'd be absurdly hacky for Jules to just mash all these characters together for several reasons aside from the creative. 1) Cricket Bro is wanted for two attempted homicides. 2) Bee let him go for some reason despite having him in custody and being one of those targeted to be run over by a car, so golly maybe we're finally getting an explanation from "he bought me off" to "I'm really god drat stupid and amoral." 3) Nothing actually happened with Colonel Sanders. Mark published or helped make a documentary about an issue Sanders actually did the right ecological thing for, got arrested for being a particularly dim protestor, and the storyline just evaporated like a fart in the wind. I guess technically they oppose each other because Sanders sent a guy to punch Mark and Mark almost inconvenienced Sanders. High stakes. The real score here is the reveal of the latest news cycle issue Jules is mad about with Stump and AI art, though I think Jules can rest easy in that nobody will be stealing her work to feed an AI. Or maybe she's mad the AIs outperform her even when drawing hands. My Lovely Horse posted:Nevermind the people, I feel like we're about to see Jules Rivera make points about art and writing quality The pacing of the current arc is as bad as a new Simpsons episode where the first act is a complete disconnect from the others so yeah, always funny to see Trail showing its hand.

EasyEW posted:Crankshaft She's a published author so shouldn't she already have some copy that went inside the dust jacket of her books or whatever? Here, "Mrs. Whoever is a lifelong bookworm who knows it's never too late to achieve your dreams. At the age of 85 or whatever she published her first mystery, Murder Up My Bookhole, to great success, and completed a sequel the following year. Most days she can be found writing away in her bookshop, where she is assisted by her two nieces Tweedledee and Tweedledum and her cat Whiskers." I don't even remember these characters' names but that took me like one minute to come up with. Vintage Valiant (Jan. 15, 1956)  I should have said something yesterday, but of course Trondheimsfjord is a real place, so we can pin down pretty accurately where Thule is supposed to be.
