Endless Mike posted:Star Wars is FAST AND FURIOUS Only recently jumped in on these strips so I didn't catch the start. Does Vader know that the spy is Luke? I'm assuming so and that he's wiped him from any database of wanted rebels. Otherwise you'd think that the guy who blew up the Death Star would be Bin Laden levels of infamous in the Empire.

Nenonen posted:No, you were reading the Swedish version!! Actually, now that you mention it they probably were in Swedish. The vacation home my parents bought in the 80s still had a bunch of crap out in the barn and there were some boxes of old comics among it. Mostly poo poo but there were a couple of MAD Magazine issues that I still have to this day. Swedish MAD sucks compared to the Norwegian one.

Endless Mike posted:Star Wars is steaming hot! So during the confusion of Storm Troopers and admirals running around like headless chickens Luke has the opportunity to knock out a guy and take his armour? I know a guy who cosplays as a Storm Trooper at conventions and movie premieres and have seen him put on the armour pieces over the body suit. That poo poo took probably 30 minutes and he was just sticking most of it on with velcro. Also, Luke would have to have stripped down to his undies before starting or he'd look all lumpy. And yes, I'm being a pedant but that's just because I really like the strip.

SubNat posted:Moomin and family life I do love how Tove Jansson said gently caress it and completely retconned the whole Moomin universe for the newspaper strips. Actually, did she have any involvement with this thing? Like Snork Maiden was already living with the Moomins when they first meet Sniff. And Snufkin was already an old friend of Moomin Dad when the books started. This comic make no sense and it owns.

How Wonderful! posted:These are actually pretty nice realistic ways to help out a friend with a new baby coming, every new parent I know is super grateful whenever they can get an hour break even though they do of course love their new kid immensely. "Sanity savers" is kind of a goofy way of putting it but having even just an hour of space while your kid is taken care of by someone you trust is a huge boon to new parents. She could even cash it in a bunch at once and go out on a date! I think it's a rad gift. Sorta related but I just checked the Facebook of the collective of four apartment buildings i belong to. The nice old lesbian couple in the next door hallway are offering to cook for anyone who gets hit by the Cornholio virus. They're not exactly spring chickens so I told them I could carry over any meals for them. There's also a lady willing to do laundry. Turns out this shitshow is actually bringing out the best in us. This is Norway mind you, we all have the communal spirit ingrained deep down.

Zereth posted:You could make an argument for Val tripping his rear end off from hallucinogenic plants in the garden, and that Le Fay's stuff is just her anxiety and poo poo over what Merlin's doing working overtime, but it'd be pretty strained. I'm in the "this is actual magic" camp. I refuse to believe that there's ever been a piece of media that introduced God drat Merlin and there's no magic present. The exceptions being A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court and Camelot 3000 of course.

BigglesSWE posted:Pondus had for a loooong time some rather homophobic streaks, but I think he's toned down that stuff a bit. Considering the way he portrays conservative movements in general, I've taken it more of a "macho manly man scared of gay" rather than genuine hate. But what do I know. Oh and I found two covers for the thread. Pyton started in Norway because the creators were fed up with censorship from the people publishing Norwegian Mad Magazine. E: Here's a racist one.

JethroMcB posted:Yeah, goddamn those MAD Magazine types for not letting Alfred E. Newman beat a black man to death on the cover of their magazine Nah, the rebellion mostly started because they couldn't draw ladies with bare tiddies. It might be worth mentioning that most of the content in the magazine was from the American version. Stuff like Spy vs. Spy and Sergio Aragones worked well obviously. Also the movie parodies from Mort Drucker (RIP) were easy to translate. The problem appeared when you had a two-pager with jokes about politicians that weren't the President. That didn't work because people here didn't know who those people were. That's when they would print Norwegian originals instead. Oh and funny story, for the first issue of Pyton they had a big upside down drawing of Alfred E. Newman on the backside. The people at stores would mess up when stocking and put the comics with that side out and people would inadvertently be buying the first issue of the comic. The American publisher threatened to sue them for copyright infringement. Lodin fucked around with this message at 12:32 on Apr 10, 2020 |
