Love it.

Also, I love how Popeye, acting purely on sailor's instinct, is an amazing detective. I agree with you, CommonShore!

Hm turns out they launched January 6, 2018 so that's three real years and also comic strip years.

You shouldn't be surprised. You know how much of a stickler Holbrook is for realism.

also this is a great example of how Tinkersons makes the most of its very limited art style, you get a good feeling of the lighting in the room changing as the hours pass and it's all done with two standard colours out of its standard fairly drab palette; either that or it's just random chance supposed to mix things up in identical panels but hell it still works out.

I like that Hank just takes rubber cement hair in stride.

I'm not sure why the war would make wigs impossible to get, since I'm not savvy enough about wig construction -- at a guess, maybe because there was no silk thread coming from Japan or China?

Super-short haircuts on women wouldn't come into style for another decade or so, when Audrey Hepburn popularized the look.

Moomin is just such a crazy good strip. It's the only thing I can think of that really fits the word "whimsical."

God it feels like it was just this year they were there but I guess the kind of meandering pace and sudden stop story telling of things adds up. So many instances of "oh no what could happ---oh it's solved, nevermind."

Looks like dead Bertelsk�lds are my new Christmas tradition. His grandpa drowned last year.

This is the end of the third book. Surgeon's Tales returns in January. Thanks for reading!

Looks like I have exactly 700 strips left, so I should be able to finish it by the end of the next year.

Either that, or orientation was assumed to be verified.

I was 26 when I met my wife; she was 32. Her parents assumed she was gay because she moved out of the house when she was 18, and in with her best friend, for nearly a decade. They reacted similarly when they met me.

I think it may in fact be "just testing if he's gay and thank god he's not".

It's pretty well established that Carlos is a creep; he's exactly the sort of person who would think interests like "reading," "poetry," and "museums" are red flags for gayness.

ing until then. I forgot if and how you're collecting these strips, but they should be- I don't think this story is widely available in English and the comic definitely isn't.
