This poster is making extra effort to help an artist! :mad:

The strip is so bad though, I feel like the artist owes me money for looking at it.

...OK, that's kind of mean, but while Rae the Doe is cute, the art and storytelling just feels very basic to me.

To be clear I'm not saying we shouldn't criticize or lol at bad comics

I bet most of us scroll past certain things. It would take multiple people quoting and responding to that BA BA BA baby comic for me to look at it, god I hate that thing. But keep posting that poo poo

I'm not going to complain when other people are putting in daily loving effort and I'm mostly just passively enjoying the thread

For whatever it's worth I range from meh to enjoying Rae, but I'm also pretty much in its exact target audience(trans, nerd, millennial, loves terrible puns).

Rae The Doe kind of goes back and forth for me, but my personal rule #0 is not everything's made for me, so even in the worst of cases, it earns a resigned shrug.

Genius storytelling to have the characters announce they've reached a dead end and then use the same character to announce that he's found a clue pointing the way forward.

They're both clearly dated so they're not printed out of order, I guess Mark Trail is getting so lazy and lovely that it just repeats literal panels from the last week to tread water and pass time. Agonizing.

But seriously, these are out of order.

This storyline has been going on so long that I thought it was Mozz who did that.

If I remember right, did this prophecy story have something to do with both of the phantom's kids dying and his daughter's friend dying as well and just everything coming to a horrible end if the phantom got Savarna out of prison? I don't remember anything about Diana dying though.

I think Diana just decided to leave the phantom and stay in New York.

Okay okay I know K and K plays loose with everything, but is she a loving porcupine or a hedgehog?

She's a hedgehog on account of being Secret British and is also an omnivore/insectivore.

I thought she was one but was raised as the other because it made it easier on her parents.

Pappy always was a deadbeat and a man of few morals, but I always liked how he and Popeye reconciled in Altman's film version especially because it was made clear, without doing any kind of processing after the fact, that the two missed and thought of each other a lot while estranged. I don't like how Randy is handling the character. Pappy can be a schemer and occasionally a jerk without being a super bastard bad guy everybody hates, cause he should also be helpful and decent when family and friends are in need or even just when he feels like it.

"Just when he feels like it" is the main missing element of Randy's Popeye in general. All the characterization is hard-wired and not open to improvisation. Popeye in general is a good guy who loves a good fight, but he almost never provokes them, he just doesn't deescalate when a situation turns violent. Randy's Popeye is whimsical when what it really needs is just whims.
