Just in case you didn't think the comic commenters were horrible people, a bunch of them looked at that Saturday strip of Retail and declared Marla an idiot, because now all her employees will quit or start stealing poo poo.

Kinda interesting to see the Star Wars comic refer to A New Hope as “Star Wars” while Empire gets the subtitle treatment.

Endless Mike posted:"A New Hope" wasn't added until the 1981 re-release (after Empire came out), so just calling it "Star Wars" would certainly still be common in 1982, when these were coming out. I did not know this. Neat.

Nekonaughey![]() Starting today I will also be posting what I would say is the companion piece to Footrot Flats, the NZ cult classic Bogor - together with Garfield these formed the bog trinity - when I was growing up if a house had reading material next to the toilet it was almost certainly a Footrot Flats or a Garfield collection, but ever so rarely you would find a sneaky Bogor. Burton Silver first conceived of Bogor, the titular and slightly eccentric woodsman, after being alone on a family plot of land in the middle of the bush for half a year. According to legend Silver then shopped around a batch of 35 strips to editors until being commissioned for a weekly strip by the New Zealand Listener after the editor reviewed only the first 30 strips, with the 31st introducing Bogor's marijuana plantation. On discovery of this, the furious editor forced Silver into a compromise wherein only the hedgehogs would be allowed to grow and smoke pot. As the first collection is mostly the initial strips drawn to shop around for publication without quite having a voice yet, I intend to post a page at a time (usually two strips). ![]() ![]() The second one of this first batch is link-only because I think that while it was probably fine in 1973 to depict a Nazi salute as shorthand for being a dictator, the strip doesn't say anything beyond simply depicting it and as such I don't think it ever actually was fine let alone appropriate now, but I scanned the strip and included it for historical purposes. https://i.imgur.com/a07Chn9.jpg

These "teachers have free time during snow days" strips are one of the more annoying ones in this godawful comic. Julet Esqu posted:He doesn't want to work in the US, Dawn. He thinks France rules and America drools. That was, in fact, the whole point of your last storyline and is the entire reason you guys are long distance dating. There's also how Dawn never talks about trying to move to France to be with Hugo, even back in that stupid storyline. Dawn keeps acting like Hugo is the one who needs to make all these big changes in his life, while she sits around waiting for her perfect life to happen. She's insufferably selfish, just like Wilbur, and I still can't believe Moy wrote them getting to keep their happy relationships. Gloomy Rube posted:Knowing all the backstory behind Lynn makes this comic super gross Holy poo poo, I remember that. Some terrible parents kick their kids out for being gay, Lynn one-ups them by straight-washing her son in her comic.

I think I realized why I like Wallace so much: It has the energy of Calvin & Hobbes with the heart of Cul De Sac, which are two of my favorite strips.
