Tackling such a heavy topic in such a weightless way, and still doing the "Ba ba ba ba" gags. It's clear that the author is pulling from lived experience, but this whimsical baby strip is not the right medium to express his feelings on losing a parent.

It may be one of the worst attempts at handling a serious subject by a normally unserious property I've ever seen. It lacks the gravitas of even a Saturday morning cartoon's Very Special Episode. I hate to say this, but I think goddamn Loss may be better than this strip. At least Buckley knew when to have the characters shut up for 4 panels.

Nah, it's fine. Like I said, this one runs so much longer than I remembered.

I watched like 30 seconds in the middle of this and I hated every moment of it. Ugly and uninspired animation, completely flat voice performances, obnoxious "playful" musical cues, the cheap-looking flying strip scene transitions...Family Album bad! Family Album go away!

That’s some straight-up Caillou poo poo right there.

It's like this, Peanut

If Dustin bothers someone, he's in the wrong and gets treated punitively. If someone bothers Dustin, it's because of something he did and therefore he deserves it.

That may not be an abusive family situation on its own, but it certainly helps facilitate the abuse.

I hate this loving comic strip and the complete shithead who writes it.

Why do these assholes still have jobs? My bus drivers would wait for you if you were late and they saw you running for the bus.

I still remember having to walk over a mile home in high school, because a teacher kept me late and I missed the bus. I got about halfway there when my bus driver, who had had another route that day, saw me, and pulled over, flashers on and all, asked me what happened, and got my rear end to my usual stop. She said she didn't want me walking home over train tracks, and you know, the fact it was 100*. That was over 20 years ago and I still remember her kindness.

Daddy Daze, loving hell, the baby does not make this better. I concur with the idea that even Loss had the "broken clock right twice a day" bullshit by having Ethan of all people not spouting off about VIDJAGAMES while that poo poo was going on.

There's also the fact that they boarded the train right after breaking out of prison. Royal train or no, there probably isn't clothing in Bok's size at hand there.

Is Flash a fugitive or something? He solved the murder and handed the actual murderer over to the prosecutor. Or does he need to be under protection because Vultan or somebody will be upset that he knows about the murder plot?

Also, breaking out of prison (and being an accessory to the kidnapping of the jailer) is generally still frowned upon by the powers that be, even if you do prove your innocence soon afterward.

"Go on until you're stopped."
Technically Flash broke out of a prison he wasn't supposed to be in, since the jailer sent him to the hellhole instead of the white-collar suite, but since the rules were all written by Ming if they go by the book they probably have to build an entirely new, worse prison, just for Flash.

yeah, the Inquisitor clearly has it out for him, and the royal family weeeere not what you would call any kind of 'useful' in this last endeavor.
