You see, Huey is a militant black activist but sometimes he reaches too far to take offense or see discrimination. :redandrover:

The_Other posted:Pretty sure this is cause the IWW was opposed to the United States entering and fighting World War I, as were most Socialist/Anarchist organizations at the time. Interestingly, similar groups in Europe were also opposed to their countries entering the war, but gave lip service of support after their countries started fighting. Also the association with anarchists, who at the time weren't college kids posting on the internet but promoted "propaganda of the deed" which included things like assassinating the President and attempted assassinations of a whole lot of world leaders.

BlankIsBeautiful posted:Jane's World When Jane's World is on a roll it's really good but the rest of the time...  I have a harder time with the characters than Doonesbury and Cancerbean combined. At least in those strips every character can't be described as "an attractive woman who has dated every other member of the cast"

Tiggum posted:I'm honestly starting to hate this comic. It's full of obnoxious arseholes and recycles jokes more than Garfield does. I liked it for a while, but it really didn't take long to wear out its welcome. Rather like Liō or Scary Gary, it's funny enough when you haven't seen much of it, but it just never really moves beyond its basic premise and just keeps reusing the same things over and over. Speaking of Lio, he needs to add Garry Trudeau being a lazy gently caress to his "parade of poo poo comics" repertoire.

EasyEW posted:Seriously, the current Prince Valiant team looks like they're really in love with the idea that they get to do Prince Valiant every week. It's the same feeling I got from the Gravelines Prison arc in the Phantom. They are good, though I did like the Cullen Murphy run. The father took over the art from Hal Foster and the son, who wrote the scripts, has a degree in medieval history from Amhurst.

Andorra posted:I don't know which it's in but I know I've read it before, and I don't have the Complete Collection either. You must have Chinese knockoff versions or something. According to the database it's only in the Complete, while the following one (let's hear some water running) is in Yukon Ho! I just checked my copy of Yukon Ho! and it goes from this one to the "let's hear some water running" with just a Spaceman Spiff drawing in between. How odd. e: apparently it would have been found in Something Under the Bed is Drooling but wasn't reprinted there. It's only one of two comics with an unusual reprinting history. quote:The strip for May 23, 1987 was reprinted in The Essential Calvin and Hobbes and The Complete Calvin and Hobbes, but was missing in Something Under the Bed Is Drooling.
