Surgeon's Tales  I guess you can't have an old comic without some racist caricatures. At least this time it's a mask rather than a person with such features. The comic rushes through this party scene and makes it feel pretty pointless, but in the book it takes several chapters and the whole thing was apparently a pretty big deal and took several years of preparations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Pavilion_at_Drottningholm Earlier I was wondering about knobs/buttons Eerikki was hired to manufacture. The book actually explains that they were buttons for Chinese uniforms (the whole party had China theme). Nancy  Dustin  Mandrake

It feels like Jules Rivera feels empowered to just do the dumbest bullshit imaginable in Mark Trail because of what she believes to be the bulletproof "ok boomer" defense.SubNat posted:Don't mind me, just casually unboxing a product to dirty it up and try it right here on the sales floor. (Assuming the product even comes with a battery to try it with.) I worked at a toy store for a few years and this poo poo happened constantly.

Don't worry, if I like it I'll grab one of the boxed ones and buy that, don't want to buy this dirty one. It's always strange when such a subliminally boomer thing slips through without him even realizing it. I've encountered a customer doing that once, but she corrected herself and agreed to buy the kids/toy book she'd taken the shrinkwrap off of when I called her out on it.

It does look like there are display models out of the package as well, in panel 1 I was just hung up on that super form fitting apron, myself. Lady's boob must look just like her nose, but smaller.

In today's Blueberry: It's just like that one scene from Fury Road, or Lone Eagle faces the music, or Child of Water is a legendary figure from Apache folklore, who is at least demi-devine. I have no idea how accurate the final panel on this page is, but is certainly how it was represented in the book originally. However, considering how fast and loose it's played with other things re. Native Americans, I'd take it with a large grain of salt - if anyone can verify/correct, I'd very much welcome it

Mikl posted:Also, we get some first-hand evidence of the discrimination domesticated animals face in that society. Aside from "It's meant to be a metaphor for being gay" I'm not sure why domestication faces discrimination in that society. Like, one of the things the strip has gone over many times is that domestication makes you fiercely loyal to significant others or bosses. In fact Ralph's domestication was given as a reason why he gave up on attacking Kevin. So wouldn't companies want to hire as many domesticated animals as they could, since it mean they could treat them however they liked but the domestication would keep the employees loyal? That sounds like a wet dream for most management types.

It's not like you actually need to know what was going on in the Civil War to understand race and racism on a day by day basis.

Deathless Deer 1/28-30/43   So Deer has a half-brother? Patterson may be drawing inspiration from either Cleopatra or Hatshepsut, both of whom married and shared rule with their half-brothers.
