So I just want to be sure in Demons, main dude Planck told his gf he'd be back after a year of training, and it's been like 4 years now, and she moved on and got married and had a kid but we're supposed to hate her for that, right? Instead of finding her annoying because all she's done is cry and scream his name.

I've been thinking pretty much this exact thing about this strip's premise. If you're just invisible, with no other abilities or self-preservation, you're probably going to get hit by a lot of cars and people walking around and stuff.

There was some family hero show I remember from years ago called No Ordinary Family where the mom had superspeed. Awesome, cool. So she was racing around finding bad guy poo poo out and escaping and...never wore a loving mask because why would she need a mask or way to hide herself?

the Dustin storyline is.....very weird.

Gonna go read A Problem With Jamal from the first comic, then come back and hopefully find Dustin's dad has learned his lesson never to try new things.

I love the looks on the twins' faces in Val. A mix of "oh dear" and "these fuckers are yolo I cannot wait."

But again, it makes the Phantom and Mozz look stupid for not realizing they could bring their personal army to the prison.

I prefer the idea that Mozz told Gurran all the prophecy poo poo because he wanted to look cool, and Gurran went "Yeah nope" and called up the army.

edit: Val, I love you man, but sometimes I think you need to let one rear end in a top hat who kidnaps your son/wife live, just so the word spreads that if you gently caress with Val's family, you will die tired or in a hole.

I have to admit, I am super glad that Ces is tackling this issue. I was kind of aggravated with the strips where Hil found Steve in the woods over the holidays and it at first seemed like they were suggesting that all her problems were magically solved when she got that photo, especially given the build-up beforehand.

Same here. Be way too easy to pull a Funky magic "let's call Clinton to stop ICE" strip or two to make the problems go away.

I do like how the king in Val debates about hurting Aleta. No, we don't hurt high quality!

And he does go all out in his dance. A jerk rear end in a top hat regardless but the dude tries.

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.

I never got the real answer to the truth/lie guards in Popeye. I do like how they handle it.

And I do like how the standard D&D player does:

Barbarian beats one guard to death. Asks the other if that guard is dead. Now we know who the liar is.

So for Adams, what was the final loving straw that broke this, because he's been such an rear end in a top hat for so long?

I mean even Elon Musk is saying the media is racist against whites so....it's probably something like that, isn't it. poo poo about bringing back slavery or something.


I just don't get it. Maybe because I've never been in that position, but I see idiots like the Dilbert guy and the lady that was on Mandalorian, and both of them went full chud screaming, and lost out on all kinds of insane money. WHY. Take the loving money!

really steams my beans when the art in my cartoons isn't well-defined enough for me to be able to definitively make out the gender of twelve year olds

the only reason i would say otherwise is because the kid in question likes a girl but doesn't want her mom to know she's gay yet? also there were the strips where she was trying to impress her crush without knowing if her crush liked girls or not.

i'm still trying to figure out if the girl with the heart on her face has that as a tattoo or she's a teen so it's a sticker.

I mean it makes sense for Val not to kill these fuckers until he's gotten some repairs out of them.

It's like when you have to Valiant someone, you make them dig the hole first. Their hole. It'll save the wear on your back and knees.
