I'm not saying it's inaccurate, but it's egregiously missing the bizarre, proud confederate flag wavers, trump supporters living in a country unaffected by him, and the surplus of street beggars, while we all pat our backs about how 'great' our art culture is.

To put it simply, Edmonton deserves the Favorite Comics Thread.

Edit: Also, Mike Winters Sucks. Go read Bob the Angry Flower.

Atomic Robo owns and it's been awhile since I've read it but I don't remember much Musk praise? :psyduck:

Last that I read, there was a semi-unflatering portrayal of Richard Branson as a Billionaire Home Owners Association.

Also they treated 'Science Nerd' icon Carl Sagan as a vindictive bastard, and the titular character's intellectual arch enemy.

It'd be odd that their irreverence for every non-Nikola Tesla public figure wouldn't extend to tech douche, even before the pedo comments and self-implosion.

perhaps foxdad is translated from some language where ear-defenders is the normal word for earmuffs?

Actually I think they're those industrial ear protectors that are used on construction sites.

Doesn't change the fact that Foxdad is really mundanely odd.

No, I read that one, it was neonomicon. I haven't read it in probably a decade and nor do I want to revisit it. Though if Providence is both less rapey and legitimately good, I might check it out.

Keep in mind, I think the main issue with MMO was that, when people posted it, it was entire depressing story arcs that would flood an entire goddamn page.

So it was an incredible volume of jizz and poo poo stained potheads discussing how they're being pieces of poo poo in the crustpunk scene in Portland, with maybe an actual funny comic in the middle.

I don't find it funny, that's an opinion. It's enthralling to the right people, I suppose?

WRONG

It was about the crustpunk scene in Australia.

Otherwise lol carry on

Not that I'm speaking for them, but society certainly doesn't help with their mental well being. The fact that any trans-fellow are doing okay is probably a minor miracle.

Edit: I just realized we are talking about Goblins. While it might explain some bits, it certainly doesn't scapegoat the series' worst aspects.

exactly, the 90s actually ran until September 30th, 2008, and concluded with the release of the album Nightmare Revisited, the most 90s compilation ever created.

Really? Plain White T's? All American Rejects? Polyphonic Spree? Rise Against? Those are some 2000's as gently caress bands right there. On your side there's Marilyn Manson, maybe Korn. But otherwise that is an album that distinctly belongs in the post-9/11/pre-'08 recession' era.

Easy.



Mainly because people took the premise, and made a 2-edgy-4-u story about a world where all of the sudden everything was made of dog (including, gasp, fruit!).

Because of that, it's the only one I can remember off hand, and thus my automatic favorite.

Excuse the fact that it's from a creepypasta wiki, I'm pretty sure the original was from 4chan from like 15 years ago.

I imagine that the Boomer readers are dropping like flies, but I can't help but imagine that there's still one horribly bitter soul, still reading Nancy because white hot fury is the only thing keeping him alive.

And to him, this comic will be completely incomprehensible, and it delights me.

To be fair, he's been working with K.C. Green on a long, serialized comic for the past few years. Probably has taken up most of his time.

Unfortunately not too many stand alone pages to share, here's a truncated sampler platter of a few pages from it. Please don't make fun of me by saying it's worse than achewood.





(Btw, it's called Back, and it's not about the king. He's the bad guy. It's about a cowgirl who may or may not cause the apocalypse.)

Oh god, the least I could do guy. The most memorable strip he ever did, to me, was in his spinoff comic about commenting on Comic Books. Specifically, the one he did about pissing on the legacy of Jack Kirby, specifically using the characters he created.



If you need a reason to be pissed off about this, Jack Kirby was the son of Austrian-Jewish immigrants, a WWII veteran, and a dude who loved punching Nazis. Before he was drafted, he drew Captain America punching Hitler. And when the publisher was confronted by some American Nazis, he was the one to go meet them down in the lobby just so he could punch them himself. It's not confirmed if he ever did, but everyone agreed, he hated the fuckers and loved telling war stories where he killed 4 Nazis. He practically invented and drew all of the Billion Dollar characters Marvel has, and did it while drawing about 15-20 books a month. Never felt he got his fair share compared the notoriety and money Stan Lee got, while also never having a say or control in the work that he invented, and he's commonly used as an icon for those who fight in favor of creator's rights. And when he quit Marvel to work for DC in his mid 50's, just as Hippies were a common cultural target, he dedicated his work to psychedelic, cosmic level comics that argued that the next generation who were rebelling to make a better world were valid and righteous. Feelings about what hippies actually stood for, and what they became and did aside, it's super cool that a guy in the tail-end of his career was still so open minded and forward thinking, rather becoming a regressive reactionary.

Point being, Jack Kirby was a cool as hell, righteous dude that was always on the right side of history. He rightfully felt he never got his fair share, and his story was used to create better circumstances to the people that followed in his shadow. But, y'know, gently caress him, he signed a contract, he knew what he was in for.

Anyways, asshat also had the gaul to ask his fans to request Marvel to have him write some comics, after Christopher Hastings (Dr. McNinja) and Ryan North (Dinosaur Comics) were hired to do so. It went so far as a fan asking at a comi-con panel of Marvel execs why he hadn't been hired yet, and the only response was "Who?"

He did eventually write comics for an indie publisher, whose most notorious legacy was crashing and burning after it was revealed that they were super chud-y.
