Oh no :( I have a DC Showcase collection of House of Secrets, and it was a delightful shock to look down at the credits for one of the stories and see Frank Bolle's name right there. He was a good artist, late stage Apartment 3-G notwithstanding, and even then his work certainly made this thread a delight. RIP, Frank Bolle, the thread wouldn't be the same without you.

I don't want to get too into the James Allen drama but originally I felt bad about tweeting CK about him because I don't want anyone to lose their job over a stupid comment, but he's been doubling down on it by saying basically "Not my problem if you can't take a joke" in a FB group where that post came up so gently caress him. We'll see what happens tomorrow, if anything.

I'm really liking Randy's version of Popeye.

Part of it is that he may be the only Cartoon Club artist to attempt actual jokes, as opposed to just going straight for "SPINACH!!!!" as if that's a punchline all by itself. But I've also been reading Something Positive since year one, so I guess I just like Randy's sense of humor.

So I went and looked up his blog, and he had a Popeye-related note last week:

Randy Milholland posted:

Also, you may have noticed Comics Kingdom has been running comics by me in their Popeye Cartoon Club area. Last year, Cartoon Club started as a celebration of Popeye’s 90th birthday with various cartoonists offering their take on the sailor and his cast, one of those cartoonists being me. Well, what’s going on now is a bit different. These are all Popeye comics by me – Monday through Friday are traditional four panel style comics while Saturday and Sunday are larger comics I made for the original event but didn’t use (some were posted on my Twitter account).

This will go on for, I believe, just under two more weeks. If you like the Popeye strips, please let Comics Kingdom know by rating and commenting on their site or dropping Comics Kingdom a line. Doing so increases the likelihood of me doing more Popeye comics and maybe one day getting to do full storylines. If you don’t like ’em… well, uh… go watch this video of sand cats. I have nothing to do with sand cats, but they’re cute and maybe you need some cuteness in your life.

This is probably the best outcome for that mob tbh. Having seen Val's young adventures, finding his friends and family dead in a burning building might result in their villages razed and their fields salted as he works out some part traumas.

On The Fastrack

Well. Let's see: global viral outbreak that's not even close to being in check for most countries due to the inherent demand for death and suffering for capitalism to function, economic uncertainty causing the disenfranchised and the oppressed to rightfully rise up and demand equality through revolution and vandalism, fascism desperately trying to outrun the growing mob, the fact that you're making people check in three times a day to lick your boots...think you found that point already.

Also they're not gonna talk to you, you're a loving snitch, they're going to talk to each other and that gossip is going to reach your ears.

Sidenote: I have to stop trusting whenever Tiggum links a Youtube video and just assume it's a Fastrack video. I'm not mad at Tiggum, I'm mad at myself.

It's been said before, but having both Les and Cayla's lives be permanently wrapped around the Martyrdom of Saint Lisa is unpleasant in a way that I don't think Batiuk fully appreciates. Grief is haunting, and there's no "right" way to grieve, but having so much of the lives of these two people devoted to the death of another feels like a bridge too far to me. Especially when one of them hardly knew the person whose death they have to constantly keep alive in their home.

Dykes to Watch Out For #77 (1990)



Bechdel has written before about how flimsy her early attempts to separate Mo from herself were, and here we see Mo relaying the primal scene of her mother "outgrowing" kissing her, an event that Bechdel recounts in a few different autobiographical venues iirc, on top of a number of other really densely loaded memories of parental love and kissing (for example, the scene in Fun Home where she wants to kiss her father goodnight, but lacks the language of emotional intimacy to do anything other than go up and really briefly kiss his knuckles). This autobiographical slippage is really interesting smack dab in the middle of what I think is intended to be read as a pretty intense and productive moment of therapy!

I like the therapy strips a lot and I really wish they were more readily available for fans coming off of her later graphic novels and curious about her strip.

Anyway this is the last strip in New, Improved! Dykes to Watch Out For, the third collected volume and the last without a chunk of new material in the back. I'll pick up tomorrow with some of the new front-matter in the next volume-- she does fun character intros that very book by book.
