I'm hoping for Estelle to sing IDGAF. Won't happen of course. But a goon can dream, and maybe make a low effort edit.

Vargo posted:This is a slippery slope to the James Allen defense. The thing about James Allen is when you pointed out he uses references (and clip art) in his comic he reacted with all the disgust and defensiveness as if you'd accused him of taking a poo poo on his family's kitchen table. If he'd replied with, "Yeah, of course. Most comic strip artists do. It saves a lot of time and effort," you could kind of respect that answer. Now, I don't know much about Greg Evans' personality, I might be completely off-base here, but I suspect if you told him you can tell he uses references and clip art in his strip, his response would be somewhere in the neighborhood of, "Yes, obviously, what's your problem?" I think that is a perfectly fine response to have. Luann is bad, but it's because of the bad characters and the bad story, not because of the bad art.

I like that cartoon, it's a legit snapshot of the change in generational experience as a change reinforced by the Depression's depression (ahem) of unskilled youth labour wages vs returns to schooling -  albeit mid 1937 is right in the teeth of the 1938 recession; it would not be until WW2 that the unemployment rate truly returns to pre-Depression levels the cultural moment returns in the boomtime 1950s, albeit the 1950s period is where the norm of secondary education is already generationally entrenched and it is sky-high full employment levels that are drawing students back to the labour force (and thereby threatening future earnings once again) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YiYJS5kgJ0 quote:Get out of bed

Judge Parker (May 2021) When I last left off, Sam chased the woman who was pretending to be April (Strand) and she knocked him unconscious. Meanwhile, the real April was confronting Randy and trying to convince him to run away (from the CIA) with her. Now Abbey's driving around looking for Sam and Alan is trying to find out what's going on with Randy. It's all very chaotic.      Eventually, the police show up at Randy's house and find Sam and Abbey there, with Alan arriving shortly afterward.

Samovar posted:Which song was this supposed to be? In the Evening by the Moonlight, going by the context. It looks as though there was a variation that changed "you can hear us" to "you can hear them" and I believe that's what's being referenced in the comic. Given the race of the people in the cartoon, this is an early version of the joke about white people singing rap lyrics and finding themselves stuck for a euphemism.

Hostile V posted:Gonna go out on a limb and say the twist of Crabgrass is there are no officially-recognized mascots and stuff. The dad recognized the purple mascot, but maybe the character was phased out and that's why they're living in a secret goblin city now. I'm wondering if he'll try to show Brock and the kids but everything will be gone or something like that. Kid Fenris posted:The last panel of this strip really stayed with me as a kid, and I dare say it may have saved my life once or twice. Yeah that's a really good moral. Crab Dad posted:My wife use to be able to eat a sandwich while working in the engine room of a small ship in heavy seas and not get a twinge of seasickness. When she got pregnant she immediately started getting seasick and her sensitivity to it never went away even 12 years later. Interesting. That sucks that it affected her permanently.

I could write an entire essay of my thoughts on A+J's handling of female desire and sexuality, and how the men in the comic react to it. The only joke I can recall JJ saying he regrets is this one: He felt like the comic sold her out for a gag, and it's the only time he punished a character in this way with a joke. He otherwise never treated Meg as a wage of sin, and never asked Janis or Mary Lou to apologize or feel ashamed for their sexual histories. It's a really good comic, and the fact he even thought about this gag again, let alone came to regret making it, says a lot about its creator.

Ruth in this storyline (and in general) is a great example. She's always way ahead of Gene, more of a handful than he's prepared for intellectually and sexually. But the comic doesn't hate her for it or expect its readers to learn anything from it. There's no "girl too horny" moral. She's a smart, adventurous, sexually aware young woman with whom Gene doesn't share much in common. But he's kind, and that's what draws her to him. Her home life is a mess, her mom confides in her maybe a little too much. It's no wonder she's in a hurry to grow up, to move out, to move ahead quickly. Gene never gets there, never knows what to do while their paths cross. She's such a real person, and you can totally understand where's she's going, the life she has the potential to live. But we don't follow her, because that isn't how life works. We just have to hope that her big takeaway from her time with Gene is, "kindness in love matters, sometimes more than anything else."

The only joke I can recall JJ saying he regrets is this one: I guess I always assumed Gene was meant to be the butt of the joke in this comic as well, in the sense of "Gene is so naive that he's goggle-eyed by the suggestion that she might not have been in a 100% exclusive relationship"? It's a little disappointing to hear that that wasn't the intended reading - or at least not the sole intended reading.

I get its how the strip works in general (as you say, that's life a lot of the time) but it's always a little sad when a character just quietly leaves the strip after being around so long. Feel the same about Arlo's office workers, since the office space was just slowly phased out; happening in the background but we're not dealing with it anymore. & Gene's other friend whose name I never remember and who I'm not even sure when his last strip was ahhh arlo & janis is such a good strip
