SomeMathGuy posted:Perhaps the colorist hosed up and accidentally made it less racist. Yeah, offensive Asian stereotypes are supposed to be green! Ms Boods posted:I'm a masochist Rex Morgan can be frustrating but it's almost entertaining in what a black hole of suck it is. The only comics I can think of offhand that really piss me off is Six Chix, because it's sheer low quality in every area every day is revoltingly painful, and Gasoline Alley, because of what self indulgent old man prattling it is.

(which is why I keep reading Nancy, Tor Johnson Baby (Rose is Rose), and Rex Morgan, even though they wind me up something fierce).

Serious question: Why is Scott Adams so clever in Dilbert, but incredibly stupid whenever he opens his mouth otherwise? I've seen plenty of disconnects between the quality of an artist and the quality of their art, but Adams seems completely detached from reality.

Good Listener posted:I am curious why there are at least two strips, Rex Morgan and Judge Parker, where the whole on going theme is "the stupidly rich get richer." Is this what the fans of the comic want? This is how I imagine the audience for these strips.

SpacePig posted:So, there's an armed guard outside of a bank that is closed, but also that bank's drive through lane is still operating. So... It's not closed? What's going on? The guard is loving with The Shaft because his presence is intolerable and no one wants him around. The joke is that society has so much contempt for him that they aren't even putting in the effort for a convincing lie. At least, that'd be the meaning of the strip if I was writing it.

Wanamingo posted:Nancy Nancy isn't a fetish comic-that'd require a fetish. This is just plain old cheesecake. Arlo and Janis, on the other hand...requiring that the woman you love be unaware of your voyeurism, and being disappointed when she consents? That's a fetish comic. My disgust is matched only by the shame I feel knowing it was allowed to be published.

I can't tell if this strip is meant as Crankshaft being an rear end in a top hat as usual or it's supposed to be one of his deep cultural observations we're supposed to agree with.

TDIET all the way.SomeMathGuy posted:I'm thinking the Gay Thirties. Frankly They'll Do It Every Time seems like old school Pluggers albeit not exclusively aimed at the elderly. I love it because it's very similar to modern observational humor and feels pretty dang relatable. It's truly timeless and matched in that regard only by perhaps Peanuts and Calvin & Hobbes. You could start a successor called That Feel When and there'd be no difference at all. WickedHate fucked around with this message at 20:57 on Jul 17, 2016 |

"Kids these days are so self absorbed they demand their water be free of minerals and come in convenient bottles! Well, we smart old people know how to get free water, all you need is a sink and a tin can, yes indeed!" Old people constantly complain about the future not being as good as they expected when they were kids and yet seem to despise every single basic improvement.

EasyEW posted:Thimble Theater (February 4, 1930) I skip straight past Popeye to read Kabibble. Yeah, most of it is "haha, marriage is hell, am I right?", but hey, given how old it is, it predates all the terrible sitcoms and stand up comedians that made it a terrible cliche. It certainly not the Lockhorns, and it usually gives me a hearty internal chuckle, such as today.

Nenonen posted:It all started as a cartoon about Fritzi Ritz, Gilchrist is just returning to the roots with how he even re-introduced Phil Fumble! Truly he's more faithful to his sources than Bushmiller ever was. Yeah, but then they could just make the strip actually about Fritzi Ritz again. And look, Fritzi Ritz is exceptionally attractive, I admit, if whoever owns the comic thinks sex appeal is the way to go, go for it. But as is it's like if Sesame Street had a stripper walk across the screen every now and then. Julet Esqu posted:Sally Forth You know what, I'm shocked, but Sally Forth has it in it to be hilarious.
