Are you gonna do anything about it? No? Well, thanks for wasting our time, corporate bootlicker. riderchop posted:Safe Havens Hang on, she's going on a vacation to Mermaidsville and film it. That's going to raise a lot of questions from the viewers about how she turner herself into a half-fish monstrosity, right? Wasn't DNA Wizard keeping the existence of her inventing shapeshifting potions a secret because she doesn't trust anyone else other than herself not to abuse that knowledge?

riderchop posted:Safe Havens So, my first thought was "why would the fillings reappear, shouldn't they fall out when the body changes since they're not actually part of the body?" but then that made me think about how this is all supposed to work and it just makes my head hurt. The ability to radically reform the human body is such an amazing advance in medical technology. Hell, she's already made herself practically immortal with mermaid DNA; she could basically be Dr. Quintum but instead she's Sauron wanting to turn people into dinosaurs.

There's no contradiction here: those sunglasses were too cool to just leave there on a corpse. They been repurposed.

Mermaid Queen's Trapeze-obsessed Human husband and son became merpeople when husband became UN envoy to the mermaids once the mermaids went public after the Mars trip. It's presumably public knowledge that someone has the ability to turn humans into mermaids. Given that the Mermaid Queen was publicly believed to be human when the Mars trip started, I'm guessing that the public think it's the mermaids that know how to do this. That said, yeah, I would absolutely expect "This is how I (and my crew, because who films a documentary with one person?) became mermaids" to be part of the documentary's additional material, if not part of the documentary itself. They can lie about it, of course...

So the rabbit warren, a secretive underground city, which is accessed exclusively through hidden entrances and that only permits Rudy and Fiona to live there because they've worked as Easter Bunnies due to a family connection, has an event venue that not only permits, but offers special services to, carnivores. Vintage Valiant (Feb. 11, 1962)

Really good storytelling and characterization in about four panels of Valiant, counting Justin's introduction last strip.  Scarlet got an update in 2012 by the son of the original author! She also gets a few comic book covers and make overs, going into at least 1950. I'm dying to know if this 2012 story updates the timeless Scarlet O'Neil wild and crazy goon design. Psychopathic gangsters like Snail and One-Eye, the big guy/little guy goon duos, and man oh man am I wondering if Wendell(the 2012 artist) took on modernizing Hippy's design.

Doomykins posted:Really good storytelling and characterization in about four panels of Valiant, counting Justin's introduction last strip. I suspect the 2012 book is an adaptation of the original stories. One of the cover pictures shows Scarlet running through fire to save a baby -- which, as Scarlet fans will remember, was one of her first adventures. I've never been able to find a copy to verify though. New Legend Productions, the publisher, seems to be out of business. Searches of used book stores just turn up a 1943 kids' chapter book from Whitman Publishing, which did lots of cheap ghostwritten books based on popular comic characters. There was also a Big Little Book published in 1946, Invisible Scarlet O'Neil Versus the King of the Slums, which sounds interesting but tends to be pricey since collectors love that sort of thing. Rhymes with Orange  Get Fuzzy 3/6/04  Brenda Starr 10/9-11/52    "This is the worst case of convenientlydyingitis I've ever seen!" Smokey Stover 3/13/60  Everyday Movies 4/24/37  "Gee, they leave you a nickel and expect everything. Why, they don't know there's guys come in here and leave you 10 and 15-cent tips and don't even make a pass at you." Invisible Scarlet O'Neil 4/8-10/43    So once again Hippy meets a rather disappointing and anticlimactic end. (I haven't read ahead but I'm putting my money on the Snail actually getting his legs chopped off by the train.) Closer Than We Think! 3/13/60  "So where's Girltopia?" "Kitchen's that way."

Cul de Sac Shoe shopping is definitely one of the most excruciating common childhood experiences (exempting medical stuff.) Endlessly dull, parents do not like/will not buy the shoes you like, and yes, that weird new-shoe smell pervades everything. FoxTrot Classix  Rose is Rose  In case you weren't convinced of the strip's obsession with maternalism. Also, cats in this strip having playing card markings on their foreheads (Or are they Lucky Charms shapes?) really annoys me. Bad Machinery

Luann should timeskip another few years to her first real job as a teacher, where she is constantly outwitted and generally bullied by a class of 8 year olds who find her mostly embarrassing.
