Yeah I do think that there’s stuff in Valhalla that hasn’t aged well but I don’t think we’re supposed to sympathise with Heimdall. He’s a blowhard and coward in general and in the previous story he was pretty evidently a bigoted jackass about Tyr’s background compared to Thor and the kids’ good hearted open mindedness (with some ribbing) Loki’s a dick and orchestrated all this but Heimdall’s reaction is worse. That’s even putting aside the obvious situation where the most beautiful goddess of them all actually does seem to like him well enough and wants to sleep with him… and his puritanism makes him turn and run away from a good thing. It’s a pretty well-worn old fashioned sex comedy reversal but Heimdall’s an idiot.

Zulily Zoetrope posted:I wouldn't go quite so far; I don't think you're meant to sympathize with Heimdall for blowing an incredibly obvious layup and somehow making it out to be the woman's fault, that poo poo was always pathetic. We just had a book of Thor being a decent person below all his various foibles, where Heimdall textually served to contrast him by being a racist piece of poo poo. I think at this point it's uncharitable to assume Heimdall's sexism is meant to be treated with any more respect than his racism.

Last time on Joey's Special Experience by Hirohiko Archie: Wumuu is blasted by the concentrated sunlight and begins burning and cracking! In his zeal to destroy Wumuu, King leaps into the air to deliver the killing blow! Unfortunately he leaps right in front of all the sunlight! Wumuu has a fraction of a second's opening, and he takes immediate advantage, and shreds King with a point-blank Mr. Sandman! Read right to left:

Register Cat  It’s common practice at convenience stores and fast food stores and the like to have someone in charge witness when a cashier breaks a large bill. (Or at least it used to be, I see it pretty rarely come to think of it - I think it might be one of those things that they did more fastidiously in the past and has stuck around as a pop-culture trope more than anything.)

On imgur, you can append an m, l, or h to an image to set it to certain sizes, I don't know what they are off the top of my head. Don't add anything to post it full size. As long as you're timging it shouldn't matter though. e.g: https://i.imgur.com/XzMYp3dm.jpg

The Saddest Rhino posted:ZHUANGZI SPEAKS 庄子说 I think I posted a little bit of it before, but this story gets a mention in Larry Gonick's Cartoon History of the Universe.   Shinozaki's Daily Maintenance chapter 20.5: company retreat edition      And that's the last of the translated Shinozaki we have. Here are the cover pages for that volume though, they're pretty good:      The little shot of Kusunoki and Asashimo make me hope the kid will be a good influence on her. We'll have to see how that turns out, though. Japan Tengu Party Illustrated chapter 9: Of Casting Stones     A little Hirai backstory. Looks like he was a soldier, probably in the Russo-Japanese war? A bugle's not exactly the same as a trumpet, but I guess he's had time to learn.
