MockingQuantum posted:Okay I'm new to this thread, having just jumped on board at the start of this year. So is it possible somebody could give me the Cliff's Notes version of what the gently caress is going on in Mr. Boop? Without context it is deeply disturbing, though I'm getting the impression it's not much less disturbing with context, either. he was happily married to betty boop her father sued them to make them get divorced he then entered the real world and met a girl named liz he slowly descended into boop based madness

But I don't mind people pointing out that he's doing it again. i like to feel like there is a massive power struggle between the daughter and the father and this story is his revenge for thirst week with jack last week

I think its becaise tinkersons is dark enough without spilling over into lio/non sequitor style misantropy also it has weird things that exist without only being the butt of jokes like the vegantarianism. its just part of the family.

Countblanc posted:If I had to give a non-art criticism of Tinkersons it's that it sorta sucks that Mrs Tinkerson's personality is being a nag the vast majority of the time. Especially with the kids but also her husband. It'd be nice to see her with some friends or something outside the home like we do all the other characters. there has been a few. usually involves a lot of 🍷

Some Guy TT posted:How old is Lindesfarne supposed to be? The older strips give the impression they're about the same age, but in the newer ones she seems a lot older. Although now that I think about it, maybe she was always supposed to be a lot older than Rudy. I don't recall ever having seen her gone to school. I also don't recall her ever mentioning what her job is. And now the vagueness is irritating me, because she shows up about as often as Rudy does so it's weird that the context of her social life isn't as obvious as his is. i think shes about 4-5 years older also when do fionas ears get bigger? was it just a gradual art change or is there some dumb in univers justification

Doomykins posted:I'm impressed that the Retail author actually works in good twists and drama for a strip that could coast for decades on ripping off and looping the same Customer Is Always Wrong jokes. Yeah, I thought Josh was ironically 100% correct in telling Cooper to look for new work. The retail profession is a grim beast. I think they are also good that in the end Marla does become the monster she hated in stewart when she gets promoted. Sure, she's nicer to Amber than Stuart was to her, and stuart still sucks, but she definitely was spiraling to hell by the time grumbles went under.

Hostile V posted:Alright so Luann is not subtle when it comes to which characters are Good Characters and which ones are Bad Characters and the problem is that Bets is supposed to be Gunther's Bad Girlfriend. The problem is that for a while she was pretty sympathetic because she was actually into Gunther's Entitled Nice Guy horseshit, so it's been a gradual erosion of her character by adding on more and more Bad Characterization. Like, ever since she was pretty alright the first time, they've been working on making her this fame-seeking streamer monster who likes popularity and internet likes more than Gunther to the extent that she kind of just ignores Gunther's free will and what he wants, which has not really made most of us dislike her because Gunther loving sucks. But now, yeah, this is just idiotic. I still don't think she'll ever get written out. She seems like the excuse for the younger Evans to make pop culture references. "Sally Forth does it dad. Do you think we aren't as good as Sally Forth?"

I Shot The Serif posted:I had to look at this one twice because while I appreciate the overhead angle, which is visually interesting and difficult to do with regards to foreshortening, at first glance I couldn't figure out why the woman in red (sorry, i can't be bothered to learn these characters' names) had three legs and one freaky foot with really long toes. Except for the manager, every single one of them is interchangable, one has magic powers but I think they all do?

Ghostlight posted:Yeah but it's through her misinterpretation that Gunther will realise he's in love with Tiffany - even Bets has realised it! - because that's the worst possible storyline. maybe we'll get the best possible storyline and tiff will just crush gunthers heart even further after having a fun quasi date with ox or since luann and bernice have shown up we'll have another week of them just not shutting up while eating hotdogs/more of gunther's fries

Medenmath posted:I hate strips with Travis. His situation is too grim and gross to be funny to me. The non-fantastical version of his character is a paralyzed man being held captive in a basement somewhere. Incidentally I feel the same way about the heads in jars in Futurama, especially since that setting clearly has the technology to give them cyborg bodies or whatever so there's no reason for people to exist that way. Anyway, that's my complaint, thanks for reading. Aleta is 💯 in control of this situation shes perfect for Val
