The death of Funky Winkerbean was such a self-congratulatory nothing, but it's a shame one of the most consistently infuriating strips has been removed from the rotation.

As always, Dustin Burn in Hell.

It’s my secret shame that almost never do I get all of the differences between the two images. There’s a real art to creating those that Webber really understands. Or I’m a moron.

This space feels...empty. It feels doubly empty because the Funky Winkerbean page was deleted from Comics Kingdom at some point yesterday. Good excuse for an audition. (flips through what's being offered on the big two websites)

...

Crankshaft has also been erased from Comics Kingdom, which has to be embarrassing, seeing as how Ed and his son-in-law showed up for work anyway.


(e: because Crankshaft changed syndicates and main websites, which was announced a long time ago, but I was too distracted by the collapse of the Funkyverse to notice.)

How will Mandrake get out of this pickle?

I mentioned it in the last thread but something I really hate about Crankshaft is that there's a streak of "Only My Sports Fandom is Pure" running through it that rears its head from time to time. We're getting a whole week of it here with these two schlubs watching a football game where every gag is "Too many penalties! Too much tech! Remember when they just let the boys get out there and PLAY?"

this one feels especially ridiculous because Joe's wish was explicitly for this to happen but it keeps acting like he wished for something else entirely

Is it too early to start praying for Crankshaft to be cancelled too? That way Batiuk can just gently caress all the way off.

Any guesses as to how Scarlet gets out of this, given that she is not Invisible Flying Scarlet O'Neil?

Mercury Hat posted:

Invisible Scarlet is becoming my favorite comic in this thread, I don't know how I didn't predict "plane crashes into daycare, dooming children to horrific death". At first I was worried the author was burning through plot points too fast but I changed my mind, keep going.

loving incredible.

JethroMcB posted:

I get that they're just doing visual shorthand for the gag, but the story of Adam and Eve really isn't substantial enough to support a book of that size.

This actually happened when I was a kid, my parents took us to see Weird Al at a state fair and my little sister was disappointed because she thought she was going to see a giant weird owl.

The first two were way too comprehensible so let's have a third one:

Tanko = (metal) bar
Tangot = (metal) bars
Tangot (or is it tangat?) = skimpy underwear, not sure exactly what kind or where the name comes from but think strings or such

Roikkua = to hang from something
Roikkua = to hang around somewhere

"Tangoissa roikkuminen kielletty" = "It is forbbiden to hang on the (metal) bars"
"Tangoissa roikkuminen kielletty" = "It is forbbiden to hang around in skimpy underwear"

She helped him rescue his wife from this same prison, so he owes her I guess. I'm disappointed in how they're handling her as I remember her being less crazy, but it's also been like fifteen years since that storyline so maybe I'm misremembering her.
