Ahhh. The audible gear shift where Jules gives up on the art, the braindead stupid how do you do fellow kids plot details, the plan that can't work unless the characters read the script and know it will. What a 1-2 punch after yesterdays Trail. She's even phoning in the animal close ups. Those freaking elastic necks, heads and hair.

amigolupus posted:Good point, this is what I think has been really off about the writing in NuTrail. I dunno, seems kind of boring. Where do we fit in the multiple strips of exposition about how cool the race car driver's mom is for giving up her career to have a love child?

Look, if they don't spend a week or two yelling "two fists of justice" then I won't know to get amped about them maybe punching somebody in another week or two.

PetraCore posted:Oh, I realized what was going on from 'the adult is dying'. We know Ten's mother has been really sick for a long time, so I'm guessing that's his mom and probably his dad. I think it's less that he doesn't care because we know he's been upset about his mom being sick, and more that it's been going on so long he's resigned to it and used to it. It's become his normal background that he just has to live in. Yeah, it's definitely not Ten being a sociopath. We know he's been out of control lately to the point of him getting kicked out of the friend group for a while. We've also seen him lash out at people who bring up his mother's health. To me this points at him suppressing his emotions rather than not having them. As for the look back it's either intentionally ambiguous in order to prompt the audience to question how he might be feeling (Sadness? Resentment?), or it's the last time he's seeing her and we'll hear that she died in a later strip. Obviously the second one is just speculation since I can't see the future. But enough about Blind alley. Here, have some more Blind Alley! Crabgrass Peanuts Through the Ages (Jan 11-12, 1964) Big Nate Blind Alley For those who are lost: The baby is psychic and super-intelligent for reasons that have yet to be explained. Kind of a Linus situation but without the mental instability or violent outbursts. Also the Blind Alley guy has been updating 3-4 times a week lately so hopefully that will help fix the problem of time between updates making things hard to remember.

I'm also probably not alone in appreciating that early Scary Go Round is being posted but also being unable to make myself actually read it. It's not just the rough art(although that's definitely not helping - everyone and everything in the Allisonverse is dying to move 1000% more dynamically than this art can manage - I don't think I've ever seen a webcomic that didn't have rough as hell art at the start), just the entire "this is a forgettable 00s webcomic" vibe that makes my eyes instinctively skip past it. 1981 comics Dick Tracy Footrot Flats The Lockhorns Computoon: Origins Legends in the Heights

If people want I can re-post Blind Alley from the beginning a few pages a day so that new people/people who are lost can catch up. I find that it reads a lot better in a continuous sitting than in bits and pieces anyways.

Fingerpori "French lines" is a Finnish term for bullet points, for some reason. The Centre for the Finnish Language says the etymology is unknown, but it may originate from lines that were used to decorate book covers way back in the day.

Murdstone posted:Mark Trail This comic is so poorly thought out. If the "solution" to get people to notice Mark's news by doing a livestream was an option from the beginning, then why the gently caress did Mark just film the train crash at the start of this storyline? And Jules must not understand how streaming on Twitch or Youtube works because some rando with 500 Twitter followers would also get buried by the algorithm. Hell, I don't know if you can even hit 100 watchers even if you Tweeted out a notification that you're going live. And for that matter, this livestream might be more effective if Mark had some evidence of the Mayor covering it up. If all he's gonna do is just show the site of the chemical spill then that's just something people already knew from the video Mark (and other gawkers) had uploaded. Murdstone posted:Apartment 3-G Oh, gently caress off. The guy was a total stalker. Tiggum posted:None of this excuses him for being a massive arsehole to everyone all the time. The author has a problem where they sometimes depict customers who are complete jackasses but the bar owner never tells them to gently caress off and they're no longer welcome in their establishment. See: That one boss of the inspector who was being a classist prick.

I think Mark is going to run up to the senator or whatever holding his phone and live streaming and ask a gotcha question because that's what journalists do. It will "go viral" because Jules is a hip millennial. In reality Mark has an active arrest warrant for assaulting an officer so good luck approaching that dude in public.

Crab Dad posted:I’m at a loss at the family here. Did the son marry his elementary school sweetheart as an adult who already had a child? Yes. Arlo and Janis took Gene on summer vacations down to the gulf coast where they stayed in a motel owned by Gus (the old guy). Gene met Mary Lou as preteens, where she was a bit older and a little more adventurous than him. Several years later they (ahem) bump into each other again, and Mary Lou is pregnant out of wedlock. The father has darted off forever and they bond a bit. After Gene graduates high school and is wasting his time in college he reveals he's never really broken contact with Mary Lou and wants to spend the summer "working in her father's restaurant." They fall in love, Gene They've essentially taken over some amount of Gus' real estate holdings and are making a go of it in a combination of the restaurant business and roadside produce stand.
