Ultimately Pluggers just makes me think of how country music is increasingly being taken over by self-praising music about how "country people"* are better than city folks. * many of the country folks buying said music work at Sport Clips and do not know how to use a plow

I bet almost zero percent of us know how to use a plow. I know we aren't sitting around pretending to be farmers but I am curious what the numbers are.

I like Overboard as a very light chuckle, but the art really is walking the fine line between stylized cartooning and incompetence.

The drawing in Overboard stinks out loud but it is far from alone.

emSparkly posted:Pluggers don’t do Windows. They learned a bit of BASIC for the Apple II at school for a bit and that’s all they remember. Not true. This plugger learned BASIC through a digital teletype with a 3##-baud-rate phone connection to part of General Electric's mainframe in downtown Philadelphia. I didn't get my hands on an Apple IIe until I was a university senior. I still have some programs on tape somewhere (paper tape). I see MacNelly's / "Shoe" DNA. I really miss him.

 Untranslatable Fingerpori   The key word here is "puolisoosi", which is the second person genetive illative form of "puoliso", spouse: "to your spouse, of your spouse". But "puolisoosi" can ALSO be a compound word of "puoli", half, and "soosi", which kind of like gravy or sauce, but with slop-like connotations. A proper nice sauce is "kastike".

Powered Descent posted:Flash Gordon Excellent use of the Sunday strips's bigger format to better establish someone's characterization. "I am, at best, a man of science" really says a lot about how Zarkov sees himself. Hostile V posted:[buries my face in my hands] god I am not looking forward to revisiting January 2021 even if I did experience those strips in real time and can't remember them. Jesus christ, this comic. With Lindesfarne involved, I was already preparing myself for something idiotic like her debating the hate group using facts and logic, but this is stupider than I could have ever imagined. The "heroes" solution to destroy racists is through illegal DNA testing and mass doxxing. And this isn't getting into Holbrook's utter lack of thought given into the message of making every member of a hate group someone with multiracial background/ancestry.

amigolupus posted:And this isn't getting into Holbrook's utter lack of thought given into the message of making every member of a hate group someone with multiracial background/ancestry. The best possible implication here is that, say, a pure Wolf or hamster or Eagle simply doesn't exist. Literally everybody in the setting is a cross-species mutt of some kind. Which does make the title characters even less special for their relationship, but we've already had that massively and repeatedly undermined, so...

Yeah I like this a lot. Like a lot of strips they're using Sunday as a recap of things we've already seen, so that people who missed weekday strips can catch up, but now it's from Zarkov's perspective so we're still getting new information and characterization.

I'd start with "Canonically, she has the ability to reverse their aging through DNA potion, combined with miscellaneous DNA magic to cure whatever ails them, so there's no need to euthanize these sapient, speaking mice at all unless they want to die."

She can also make them human so lmao at asking them what flower they want to be. "I was hoping for something short lived with minimal day to day care. No, even less than mice." Unironically a body horror villain with an abyss of a soul.

What kills my about Overboard is that I remember reading it in old Larson! and Ernie comic books back in the early aughts and the art hasn’t changed at all.

EasyEW posted:Gluyas Williams: quote:Thompson ran again in 1927 during a citywide gang war, aiming to unseat his successor, William Dever. Always a flamboyant campaigner, Thompson held a primary-election debate between himself and two live rats which he used to portray his opponents. Pledging to clean up Chicago and remove the crooks, Thompson instead turned his attention to the reformers, whom he considered the real criminals. According to Thompson, the biggest enemy the United States had was King George V of the United Kingdom. Thompson promised his supporters, many of whom were Irish, that if they ever met, Thompson would punch the king in the nose, or at other times, that he would arrest His Majesty.
