I have some notes.

Clitch posted:

Not to SMG it up in here, but the execution is a part of the comic's tone. It's mediocre, inconsistent, and feels like all motivation is spent before the comic is done. It's a half-assed, cynical comic about half-assed, cynical losers. People who look down on any real effort, because they long ago realized they can't follow through on anything, and gave up. If the comic was more professional, it would defeat the premise.

MM&O isn't a funny comic, outside of shadenfreude, or laughing as a defense against some absurdity you recognize in your own life.

It's the logical conclusion of the "It's cool not to care." philosophy of a portion of our generation too broken or lazy to be the sexy hipsters we see on TV.

I don't know man, I laughted at Owl getting knocked out by the neighbor's dog while making GBS threads in the yard.

It's like a train wreck really. Can't just look away. It also hits way too close to home as I'm from a place that and grew up around people like that.

Well, I loved Megg, Mogg & Owl so much I finally decided to buy two books of it! Thanks, thread!

...I'd read them all. All of them had been posted. This must be how Owl feels all the time.

Because I only superficially know who those characters are (one's from that kids show with the sentient illuminati symbol and the other's from adult swim's flavor of the week) and don't understand why they're together or the significance of him hating his brother in his reality but loving him in the other and why that makes him a terrible person
