I think the first one was posted earlier, but not any of the delightful follow-ups!

There actually are even more of them, including the conclusion where we get to meet Tony Lazuto himself.

Not to police your posting, but this seems kinda rude.

Eh, it's not like I have exclusive rights to these comics. I just thought it would be funnier to spread them out, so you don''t see it coming.

Anyway, the Tony Lazuto artist makes other cool comics as well:









Haha, that imgur collection is nowhere near complete. I still have a few tricks up my sleeve!

Haha, good one! I don't know if the mods misunderstood, or if they just thought it was funnier this way. Either way, I am happy to have this as the sole entry on my rap sheet :).



This one was posted AFTER the conclusion, so there is hope for fresh Tony Lazutos in the future!

Ok, I've removed it for now (even though I don't see how it's fundamentally different than burexas.irom's pic).

Have some more comics, to keep the thread on topic:

Well, that's all folks! I can't find any more Tony Lazuto comics that haven't either been posted or linked on imgur. I actually like this ending better than the official one. It's more poignant.

The remaining comics are also available at the artist's web page at: https://www.eldercactus.com/organized-crime-is-evolving/

You can purchase all your Tony Lazuto merchandise from https://www.redbubble.com/people/eldercactus/shop?artistUserName=eldercactus&collections=1300791&iaCode=all-departments&sortOrder=relevant

Another classic:



"If you are bullied,
Beat the bullies to death,
With a hammer."
- William Ernest Hensley

His absolute lack of understanding of the poems he quotes is downright surreal.

This one actually has several sequels, but I am not going to post those because they are just gross.

Fun fact: Stockholm Syndrome was invented to explain why the hostages were "irrationally" concerned that the police might run in and execute their apparently quite peasant and empathetic captors and possibly also accidentally the hostages. Also they got mad at the police afterwards! for teargassing them









Irrational hostage posted:

Yes, I was afraid of the police; what is so strange about that? Is it strange that one is afraid of those who are all around, in parks, on roofs, behind corners, in armoured vests, helmets and weapons, ready to shoot?

From: "See What You Made Me Do: The Dangers of Domestic Abuse That We Ignore, Explain Away, or Refuse to See"

Basically, the reason people like hostage takers better than cops is that hostage takers are better people than cops.

Do you like well drawn fantasy post apocalyptic Scandinavian webcomics with magic and trolls and cats? You do! Well that is pretty specific genre but here you go:



The style of the first page kinda reminds me of the classic Lord of the Rings illustrations by Queen Margrethe II of Denmark:





















Say what you will about our beloved queen, but she draws a mean Nazgûl. It's a pity she didn't get into webcomics.

She did découpage sets for an adaption of H.C. Andersen's "The Wild Swans" some time ago. I would love to see a higher-budget international production with this kind of art style.

It is a bit hard to read, but Bloom County has always been a left-leaning comic, so I definitely don't think he is trying to imply that being progressive is bad.
