CommonShore posted:Y'know I'm too lazy to do edits but as an effort poster elsewhere I know how silence feels so I'm going to resolve to comment more about strips I like. I'm trying to do the same so thank you to everyone who does the work to put strips up every day. The historical ones, the translated ones, the ones I hate read (gently caress YOU WILBUR), I appreciate all y'all very much.

Murdstone posted:Rex Morgan MD Why the gently caress do these people know this? The initial accident of "car hits child" was probably in the local papers but they wouldn't have run an article saying "victim of car crash from a month ago found to have lost some memories" because who cares? They can't have gotten it from the doctor who treated Sarah because that's a gross violation of HIPAA, and also this press conference just got called like five loving minutes ago so even if Rex wanted to use the "My daughter suffered memory loss so she can't have copied this guy's works" defense there's no way it would be public by now. God drat this comic is an incredible train wreck of awfulness. Please don't stop posting it, I mean that sincerely. Vargo posted:Wallace the Brave The moment I saw Wallace in the second panel I couldn't help but bust out laughing. Wallace rules. rannum posted:I am not falling for the mary worth trap again ! Ha, I didn't even fall for it the first time! But it's going to be fun to watch people in this thread slowly get their hopes up once again that maybe this time, Estelle will actually dump Wilbur for good, only to see those hopes fall into despair a second time.

Honestly it feels like the Mary Worth team has backed themselves into a corner. They get a lot of attention from Wilbur being lovely, they know everyone loves to hate Wilbur, but if they show Wilbur getting his comeuppance or facing permanent consequences, that well dries up. (And "a lot of attention" is relative here - we're still talking about Mary Worth.) Come to think of it, it really feels like the last storyline was heading for a different ending, and then abruptly changed so it could be extended into this one. Seems like it wasn't planned.

I get it, I get it, we are Estelle, desperate for a morsel of affection/entertainment and the Mary Worth strip is Wilbur, a boorish oaf who promises they can change but is in the end, a boorish oaf

This is ridiculous even past the time Wilbur was being outsmarted by a cat pissing in his chair. Hope there's an actual payoff or it's just kinda blatant Wilbur milking. You're welcome for that combination of words, dear readers and the entire English language. Jucika "486 - Jucika As An Extra" "487 - Jucika And First Aid"

Prediction: the strip catches up to pandemic time and Wilbur and Estelle wind up trapped on a plague ship denied entry at any port for years. They reconsile and break up every few weeks. Mary advises the pets to the point where they start fighting too.

I'll be real, it's better than the original Zofie's World. ZW isn't a bad idea but it's also incredibly one-note and hasn't really done much to execute its concept well.

Murdstone posted:Knowing the structure MW generally follows, it is strange that we got the Mary Worth Victory Lap last week and now instead of moving on we seem to be starting a new arc with the same characters facing the same issues. We should be getting introduced to the next one, or seeing one of the short intermission ones that are resolved in a week or two. It was a decoy Victory Lap to fool you into thinking the arc was finished. A real Mary Worth Victory Lap is never over so quickly.

Slammy posted:Those Were the Days November 21, 1957 Don't think I don't see that your/you're mixup, Beeman In Luann I'm honestly hoping for a little wisdom fron Ms Phelps to Bernice. I think it will end up being along the lines of "let people figure out who they are and make their own mistakes" but what we all really want is "shut the gently caress up you smarmy sophomore psych major"

Aaaaaaaand I'm back! I should have been back over a week ago but the Covid flight cancellations screwed me over pretty bad so I'm just now back home. I am so behind on so many things right now. Anywho, today it's just the current comics to get us back to the present. I'll start posting the old ones where I left off tomorrow to keep things manageable. Apologies in advance for how long this post may get When we last left Crabgrass Miles had convinced Kevin that Santa was real and they are now working to get him back on the good list. but with people telling me about their dreams.
