She was a singer, not a stripper. So what response is Brooke honestly expecting from readers when he splashes Edda's akimbo limbs across 4 panels if not 'visceral'?

Greg Evans is the Anti-Brooke. Whereas Brooke happily spends two straight months saying HAY LOOK THESE TWO ARE A COUPLE AND loving... LOOK THEY ARE loving AGAIN, DID I MENTION THEY gently caress? Evans' characters spend forever in stupid "will they/won't they" quantum states that are no less irritating, even though they lack the slime coating excreted by 9CL and Pigporn.

Johnny Walker posted:It's awkwardly worded and no one would talk like that in real life but I believe it's technically correct. I think it's a regional thing -- I've only heard "Anymore" used to begin a sentence or a clause like that in central [hillbilly area] Pennsylvania. They'd use it two ways: "Anymore, I don't like his paintings," meaning they didn't like the paintings at all, and... "Anymore, I think I'm going to shop there," meaning they would very much like to shop there from now on. It was the most confusing thing ever and I am so glad I never picked up on that habit. That said, where the hell is Brooke from?

Mister Kingdom posted:I'm just not getting the love for this strip. The jokes are okay, but not outrageously funny. Well, what do you expect? Honestly, with all the comic strips that we all like considered, how many times a month do you actually read the funny pages and have a good, audible, guffawing kind of laugh? Maybe I'm a humorless fuckbag, but it doesn't really happen that often. That said, I've described the Fingerpori with Batman being called "Shitpants" to about five friends now, and I start laughing every time. I'm laughing right now.

I should check Snopes. Old Hollywood was just as skanky as Hollywood is today, they just kept it better under wraps because them bitches was classy. Anyway, Brooke needs to pull his head out of his rear end because the USO still sends ostensibly sexy lady performers overseas.  I just realized her top is made of footballs

Leonard Pine posted:I like Sally Forth, but the art is kind of odd sometimes. I understand that the artist wants to experiment with borders and stuff, but he doesn't know how to make it look fluid and coherent. First panel Hilary is surrounded by Sallys. Ces Marculiano writes it, but his words are sent to a company which does the art. I think that when you have that disconnect, it's harder to get the words and images to match.

These days singers going to entertain the troops would be thought of as INCREDIBLY POLITICALLY INCORRECT. Wait no it isn't. By anyone, right or left or middle of the road. Shut the gently caress up Brooke, you don't know what the gently caress you're talking about.

BetterTasteThnU posted:Whoa, slow down there! These days singers going to entertain the troops would be thought of as INCREDIBLY POLITICALLY INCORRECT. For instance, it's not politically incorrect to not tell someone you used to be a singer who took pride in giving soldiers boners. You're free to say that whenever you want. It's just inappropriate to say this to your daughter, though, since a real person doesn't want to hear her mother talking about how much she turned soldiers on. Just because you have the freedom to say whatever you want doesn't mean you should; a lesson Brooke needs to take to heart.

Yeah but what's her shirt made out of?  Brooke is just one of those pathetic people who thinks that everything that happened before he became an adult was better because he was either a child or only heard about things through the reminiscence of his parents or other adults. Plus the whole "retro" appeal.

TheJoker138 posted:If you think that anything Justin Timberlake or Lady GaGa are doing is worth a drat, or will even be remembered in 20 years, you're loving stupid. Lady GaGa is just glam Britney Spears, and Justin Timberlake really needs to realize that he's both not black, and was a member of loving N'Sync, which automatically means he has no credibility whatsoever. I may be loving retarded, but at least I can read. Where the gently caress did I say anything about their longevity? The rest is so laughable I'm not even going to bother responding to it, since you obviously can't read.

QuelleFuck posted:Also, if you count N*SYnc, JTim's been making relevant pop music for over a decade now. And he's been in at least a couple movies (okay, maybe one) that will be watched in the future. Oh, I have nothing against his acting. In fact, I think if he stuck to that, he could probably be something in that field. His music is still trash though. I'm done now.

I think Brooke genuinely believes he's empowering the women in his comics- he just doesn't realize that there are modes of female empowerment other than "Be the best sexual spectacle you can be."
