I'm enjoying Scoob and Shag, though I'm not sure how long you can parody shounen tropes like this before you're just... using them like an unironic series would. Then again, maybe that's not the intention. Someone asked how planned the series was, I'm going to put my money on not from the beginning. I don't think the progression from Scooby-doo parody to haunted house horror to shounen battle manga with crossover characters is ... logical? Expected? Anyway, I'm not sure it's what most people would have plotted. I'll eat my words if it shifts genre again. Edit: wait top of the page. Err, have a bouletcorp.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words: in this case the words equivalent to the top-right panel are the contents of Chuck Tingle's Getting My Butt Eaten By My Superpowered Girlfriend While Waiting for a Terrible Social Media Mogul

Blind Alley is Peanuts in the post-apocalypse All adults are dead, and the story switches focus around different kid archetypes as they generally express sad emotions. Also, a dog that has way too little screen time.

Blind Alley is like a kiddy Opplopolis: You have no idea what's going on, but you can sense there's an internal logic to the events happening, and the characters are arresting enough that you want to keep reading.

Restarting Blind Alley from the beginning was definitely the way to go, it makes a whole lot more sense now.

Blind Alley is a serial narrative comic that was cursed by a witch and polymorphed into a gag a day newspaper comic.

I genuinely wondered if I missed something and it was actually post-apocalyptic so I went back and read the first few strips and no, it’s just weird kids in a tiny town. Also we actually see some parents in one of them! (As silhouettes with cartoon eyes but still.)

Maybe my favorite stupid detail about the Shaggy comic is that the cartoons/aliens fly around in a huge dick and have penis emblems and no one ever draws attention to it. Just a classic little dick joke for the sake of dick jokes. Plus in the background when we are first introduced to a larger crowd of cartoon characters on the ship, we see Rosie and Isabelle from Close Your Eyes, Look At The Mountains, which is one of my favorite webcomics and I might post it after I finish with Beaton. Just a cute little comic about queer folks who are sometimes rude.

This is Terrarium in Drawer, a collection of short stories by Ryoko Kui. You might know her from her big serialised piece, Dungeon Meshi! This, however, hasn't been licensed. I'm not committing myself to posting all of this, just some bits I like. Here's the first story in the anthology though, Love Catalogue Posting the twist tomorrow. Any guesses?

Previously on Opplopolis: there were no anarchist ghosts in the house. Or were there? Maureen wouldn't know, really. I had totally forgotten about Sebastian, the knockoff Andy Warhol who eats whales, and my life is slightly better for having been reintroduced to him

Sebastian pioneered the concept of The Menu years before the film was conceived (great flick BTW, I highly recommend it)

ANSU Fingerpori Edit: Über alles = German for "above all", part of the slogan "Germany above all" (or "Germans"?) Über = that awful not-taxi company allesi (slang alles) = (have something) under you Über alles = (have) Über under you There's a Finnish idiomatic phrasing of having X under you, where X refers to whatever vehicle you're riding/driving. I totally missed the "alles" part of the pun and assumed the strip was just a reference to Über the company, but Shaman Tank Spec kindly notified me: Shaman Tank Spec posted:As an additional (untranslatable) joke, the term "über alles" can be read either as German or a mixture of German and Finnish. The Finnish word "allesi" means "underneath you" and can be used in a kind of "ota tuosta auto allesi", "take that car underneath you" -> "go drive in that car". And of course with the so called apokope in spoken casual Finnish an ending vowel is often dropped, for instance "pistä pipo päähäsi", "put a tuque on your head", can become "pistä pipo päähäs".
