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.)

I think this is in fact it for Hippy, since she seems to have lost two or three feet of height.

And I'm not sure exactly what went wrong for him but yeah, my imaginary hypothetical money is on that too. :hmmyes:

They didn't. It's being used by someone in the observation hall.

Catching up on Corto and Blueberry, if I lag behind I make a cache of pending tabs to read. These are definitely sit down and savor strips.

lol Corto is a hell of an assassin. Milner never saw it coming! Really loving how zesty and fast-paced these chapters are after the intro on Monk Island, really gives a lot to love about Corto as an adventure serial.

Looking at the old data, the stocks had been pretty stagnant since 1946 and started growing fast soon after this was published, so that's a well-timed gag in hindsight.

I�ll be honest with you. I don�t know a lot about the serpent men. So I modelled them on the Shadows from Babylon 5. I figured it was exactly the same thing.

It looks like time for yet another artist to discover that lizard people are problematic just too late to stop themselves from making them a plot element.

Murdstone posted:

I guess he could technically be talking about two separate things (leaping off the top rope and also performing slams where he goes down with his opponent, like a powerslam) but it reads like jumping onto the opponent off the top rope is a body slam. Which it absolutely is not, as any kind of slam in pro wrestling is a throw. There's of course a variety of top rope moves, but since Andrzej here is about 900 years old, I think he would've been doing a basic splash (aka body press, but nobody ever calls it that) off the top in his active days.

Yes, I'm nitpicking professional wrestling terminology in a newspaper comic strip about old people. This is what my life has become.

A lot of the the lizard people conspiracy theories floating around the internet are just antisemitism with a hasty find->replace.

Yeah, I've seen a lot of people lately saying "don't use this one ever". A friend of mine wound up withdrawing a novel trilogy from sale because it touched on lizard people and she didn't discover this until it was too late.

I don't think there's anything wrong with using lizard people in general, but you do have to be careful not to say stuff like "they likely still subtly guide the hand of man" because when you combine that with lizard people it definitely sounds antisemitic.

Almost every conspiracy theory sooner or later boils down to "the jews did it," even the flat earth theory.

Luann

This is so stupid. There are multiple ways to convey to Luann that Piro would not appreciate a lame-rear end puppet show without betraying his trust. Or just let Luann do whatever cringey poo poo she's going to do. Bernice agreed to listen to Piro vent, not manage his social life.
