Another thing about patrons not reshelving books is, a book that's misfiled can very easily become "missing" in the library records. It's still there, but even three or four shelf lengths away, someone looking for it is not gonna see it (and if it's a title they want to still have available they'll have to buy a new copy.) It can be replaced if found and that was one thing I did when volunteering was correcting records, but it's a pain.

EasyEW posted:Thimble Theater (August 12-13, 1937) A couple years after this, a pulp hero called the Avenger debuted. One of his gimmicks was that his facial muscles were paralyzed so he could re-mold his face into any shape he wanted, for a perfect disguise. Wonder if that was inspired by these strips.

RoboRodent posted:I knew it was coming. I mean, obviously that's not the nose but a solid bit of horn. That raises the question of where the nose actually is, but I'll leave that to others. I want to see Holbrook draw what this Hippopotaleo's skull is supposed to look like, then somebody who understands biology to do it. Pigsfeet on Rye posted:Apparently he does, a daughter.

We've all known for some time that Brooke loves loves LOVES when his characters get to gently caress in front of a live audience. I hate that he apparently considers small children to be an acceptable audience.  Okay, and? Yeah, they're birthday candles, I get it, what a stupid useless idiot. But also, this isn't even her house. And also, she's six.

Green Intern posted:Specifically, they're Mafia Bosses in the drug trade, which Modesty and Willie have an intense dislike of and spent a lot of their time smashing while in their own criminal network. Yeah, I get why Modesty would hesitate about saving people engaged in the drug trade. I guess I'm just hung up on the detail that Joanna was used as the cult's sex slave. We've seen Modesty kick the rear end of a wifebeater, or even take down a human trafficking ring that sold girls to rich men, so it's just weird that she doesn't even mention what happened to Joanna as a reason for wanting to go after the Blackwings. Like she could mention wanting to take down the Blackwing for what they did to Joanna while also hesitating about doing it because it would mean saving the lives of the Mafia bosses. Julet Esqu posted:We've all known for some time that Brooke loves loves LOVES when his characters get to gently caress in front of a live audience. While Edda and Amos don't know that the kids are fully aware of what's happening in front of them, Brooke as the writer obviously does, so he's really gross to make these strips. I was wondering if Foob was just going to ignore that the parents dumped the baby in Liz's room. Liz is still a growing kid who needs a full night's sleep. The baby's crib is close to her so of course she'll be the first one woken up when it's crying. It's completely reasonable for her to be upset and complain to her parents about it. Ughhhh.

Surgeon's Tales In the book the sergeant is speaking a mix of German, Swedish, Finnish and Russian, so you have lines like these (from the English translation, which touches only the Swedish parts): "mituntereinander wie ein Eselsjunge for these cursed kivekät und Teufels nasibratten Marsch" "Wech mit palaschen und on your knees mit that koiran oder den Teufel take dich" While parsing these is pretty fun challenge, they are hard to understand and the comic just has him speaking broken Finnish, which I try to imitate here.

Right gently caress it i'm loving done with Overboard. It used to be on the good comics list but it's just got overbearingly tone deaf and twee. I get that its heart is in the right place but this strip just makes me want to walk into the loving ocean. No I don't know why this is the one that broke me, and I would like a Dave's Combo meal please.
