What? New thread? Jumping the gun!! Anyway, I post both Cul-de-sac and The Creeps Both are fine exemplars of the craft of cartooning. Cul de sac by Richard Thompson is the story of the Otterloop family, and generally focuses on Alice and her friends. It is funny, and weird and consistently good. It is no longer being produced and is in re-runs due to the author's battle with Parkinsons. The true tragedy is it was replaced by Mike Du Jour, which is execrable beyond excretion. Some of the best: The Creeps is a story of horrible people doing horrible things to each other. They are nameless, generally referred to as Fat Creep and Skinny Creep. They appear to be siblings, and the Fat Creep wears a sweater with gloves attached. That isn't a pompadour, that's a tumor. And, here's some edits that I've saved from last year: (dude with the smitty avatar.) Both by JackMcAskill, who is greatly missed. All by Borden This one was by me. Axe Maniac

Midnight Moth posted:Terrible comics Edit: Darthemed I posted Alley Oop for about two weeks, it got mired down in poor story telling and a Sunday recap. Unlike the award winning Dick Tracy, it didn't make the jump to modern times as good. Cricken_Nigfops fucked around with this message at 08:45 on Jan 1, 2014 |

Mister Beeg posted:I like "Retail". Not to be combattive, but what do you like about Retail? The characters are all hateful, the art is pretty bland and always ALWAYS includes an eyeroll. I will say in its favor that the linework is always clean and neat and sharp.

Jack McAskill was a great poster who introduced us to The Creeps I post it in his honor, in hopes that he returns once again and favors us with more funny edits. Cul-de-sac The Creeps

TampaTango posted:An angle of 147 would also be 43. He can't just say 45 degrees, or 43 degrees, he has to measure the angle by eye accurately. It's a shame we can't have a cross-over with Spider-man, then he could get needled by a radioactive prick! Cul-de-sac The Creeps

I see what you mean by Zero-G being a little mean spirited, but it's still pretty entertaining. I say post it! Also... Moomin!! Oh boy, Cul-de-sac is going down the rabbit hole, this is going to end with Petey chewing both arms off. The Creeps

Good morning gang, it's cold and icy here today, which is entirely unusual for my location. The good thing is I'd already planned to work from home today, so it's a win for me anyway. Cul-de-sac The Creeps Hey, leave off, he just wants to feel pretty and the societal norms make him feel shame for it!
