Those Curtis strips are just baffling. Curtis is a little poo poo for going through with this, but Barry is flat-out a criminal scumbag for doing all this work.

The last 6-8 strips of Olive and Popeye have been "whew, something almost happened!" with four panels of exposition stretched to absurdity.Julet Esqu posted:Luann Hahahaha called it. Bernice is not a good person.

Kennel posted:Ugh, Comics Kingdom with another enshittification step (panels as separate images). The redesign is interesting, if a little bit headachy for our purposes, but...um...as a paid subscriber, should I be seeing next week's comics? Is that a new feature or just a new bug? e: Well, this explains a lot. Early access to strips for subscribers is part of the redesign. Somebody's been paying attention to Patreon. The individual images probably have something to do with a pivot to mobile that was mentioned somewhere else ('think vertical instead of horizontal").

It should be possible to update the downloader script to match; I'll take a stab at it once the dust settles (they do still have a "please bear with us as we work to get the site running smoothly" banner up). In the meantime, here's my usuals for today, put together by hand.Bizarro  The Family Circus  Slylock Fox  Flash Gordon

Man, the imagery and pacing Dan sets with Flash while acing the art every time. Aside from his clear love of the material it's like he came to the funny pages to embarrass every other adventure serial on a dare. Power sits where it pleases from the witch using her dress/cloak as an invisible throne, eh.

I'm not familiar with the author's other work's pacing, has it been on a regular schedule like this? I don't think I've seen someone hit the ground running so solidly who didn't start falling apart before the end of the first month.

I don't think I've seen someone hit the ground running so solidly who didn't start falling apart before the end of the first month. I haven't read his other stuff yet(my mortal grappling with the passage of time, attention span, etc) but taking a look he has a weekly that doesn't miss a beat for years it seems. Dude's a true professional. A lot of clunkers can keep up with the daily art output or are smart enough to prepare enormous backlogs but I also notice they tend to succumb to awful pacing issues, whether unintentionally or by shameless design. Mary Worth milked about 3 lines of dialogue from Keith's drive into 7 strips and the same 2 perspective shots ad nauseum. That's just the hustle when you become a newspaper lifer, I guess, but it's also why most newspaper strips suck.
