new Crabgrass looks like he saw early Penny Arcade and thought "I can do that." maybe it'll grow on me. the weird juts and facial expressions don't work right now.

Olive & Popeye finally caught up with us.  As for Thimble Theater, I just couldn't wait any longer. (January 1, 1940)  Our Boarding House (January 24-26, 1924)    Toonerville Folks (March 28-30, 1921)  THE TOONERVILLE TROLLEY THAT MEETS ALL THE TRAINS: Bert Eggers is too big to get inside the car and sit in the middle so when Bert is the only passenger, the Skipper has to run the car in a rather unusual manner.  THEY FINALLY HAD TO SHOUT UP THROUGH THE SMOKE PIPE FOR HELP: And now everyone in the neighborhood knows about the secret cave.  Dok's Dippy Slushball (October 5, 1914)  A little technical glitch has thwarted Little Lefty for tonight (as opposed to my busted work ethic).

Subtle. I approve. re: Crabgrass's new art style - it's almost *over* expressive, in a way? I do like that Miles's bigger 'fro.

Powered Descent posted:What are they doing in the left-hand strip? I believe it's a trick kids used to get dragonflies to land on your hand by spinning your finger in front of them. This makes them dizzy so they would land on your hand when it does. Or so I think.

Mister Beeg posted:So... without further ado...I'll post few at a time (each page contains 2 strips) I didn't immediately realize that the strips were intended to be read from top to bottom and kept reading the first one from left to right, then "realized" it was a Japanese strip and tried reading it from right to left, and it still didn't make a lot of sense. But yeah, this is cool!

So, after reviewing F&GM, I realized I was being a bit too quick off the mark - it's not a comic that got published in a periodical like other comics here, so negative on my part. Sorry.

Doomykins posted:If it's interesting That's kind of you to say, but it was as someone stated earlier, a DC story, despite me thinking it was something else. I was also pondering about posting Buddy Longway... but, while it is another Western with a sympathetic approach to the indigenous people of America, it looks even less accurate than Blueberry was so it just... Kinda gave me bad vibes. If I was going to post something else, I'd want it to be of quality that I feel the thread deserves.

Fingerpori There have been various campaigns here to give teenagers easy/free access to contraceptives to encourage normalizing them & sex education. In Finnish politics, anti-sex ed/anti-contraceptive stances aren't very popular so even the more conservative parties haven't really gone for those for some time now (afaik, I live in the capital city so I might be massively biased).

to chime in on the Crabgrass art style, it owns reading all the comparisons to Penny Arcade in its prime is funny, since Tauhid was a pretty big artist on their forums and collabed with Andrew Hussie of Homestuck/MS Paint Adventures fame on more than a handful of things it's hard to find but he had a webcomic called 'Spells & Whistles', and what this most recent style he's showcasing reminds me of is that work from back then, but much more refined and confident

Professor Wayne posted:Zits I'm never really confident I'm reading these comics the way they were intended. To me, the joke is plainly on the parents for assuming their highschooler intern would have some genuine responsibility at the company as opposed to being the company's pet teenager for a few weeks. But what are the odds that later comics will keep to that?
