Cicadalek posted:I fell out of reading the previous thread and I'm 21391 posts behind, did I miss anything The biggest thing you might've missed was the utter insanity of Apartment 3G before it got canceled. The artist and the writer seemed to actively be at war with each other so that the dialogue and the pictures made no sense at all together. Things like the dialogue indicating Margo was at a diner ordering breakfast, but the artwork showing her walking down a city street, so she seemed to be shouting her order at random people as she passed them. Or dialogue indicating people were visiting her in the hospital and again artwork showing them walking down city streets, making it seem like her hospital room was the city streets. It was weird, even for newspaper comics. And then it got canceled and they didn't really give it an ending, just spent the last week with a couple side characters vaguely talking about side plots to try and wrap them up I guess. Only one of the three main characters even showed up at the end.

ChairMaster posted:Wait is that new art? I haven't followed the thread for a while cause it moves so fast but... Mark Trail has new art now? Is it not just an unending parade of clip art rearranged and pasted together in slightly different ways to make it into different stories? It got a new artist a while ago and he seems to actually draw the strips instead of compiling them.

Taear posted:Even after so many years of these threads I can't quite wrap my head around how terrible compu-toon is. I scroll past the stuff I have no interest in but each time Compu-Toon stops me and I wish it would go away. I realllllly don't think Compu-Toon is meant to be educational. (Aside from that Keypad Kid comic book.)

Odonata posted:Moving. Spiritually enriching. Sublime. “High” art, or, Gasoline Alley The fact that he put the words on the door backwards, yet drew it so that we're looking at the front of the door so they wouldn't be backwards bothers me way more than it should.

"Product idea" sounds like a prototype to me.

JaggerMcDagger posted:fort knox I wonder if the colorist messed up and that was supposed to be green instead of white in the background (like it's trees). When I first looked at this I couldn't figure out why they were up in the clouds.

Kennel posted:Nancy For some reason I really like that it says "To be continued," in case there was someone out there who would read this in the paper and be very confused because they didn't know there was more coming.

Kennel posted:Nancy Oh the cat survived! What a surprising end to this story! Wait, to be continued?! I'm glad he specified, since the daily serialized nature of comic strips is confusing to me. Also, Sluggo's heavy-lidded look of dismay that the cat survived seems really weird.
