Philosophical Friday: A new concept in comics that I hope never to experience again

Tina's Groove, 2014-07-14.
OK, you've got to listen to this. Now try to make it all the way through the week. That's certainly... something.



Dog Eat Doug, 2014-07-31.
There's no way that that bird could have been hidden from the dog. It's hidden from us, but the dog is looking at the scene from a totally different angle.

One-Panel Wednesday: Anger and Disgust

Beetle Bailey, 2014-05-30.

Pvt. Bailey is alone, in the middle of the desert when he is approached by Chip Flagston.
"Hey, jerk!" calls Chip.
"You talking to me?" asks Bailey.

I thought Chip liked Beetle.



Hazel, 2014-05-30.

George has built a scarecrow that looks like Hazel.
"If ANYTHING will keep the birds away..." he says happily.
Unseen behind him stands Hazel, glaring. Apparently she isn't taking it as a compliment.



Tina's Groove, 2014-05-30.

Tina is serving a middle-aged couple a large slice of cake.
"Here comes all that extra weight I lost..." says the woman. "Somehow it always finds me..."
She refers not to the cake but to a pink blob of human fat that is slithering across the floor of the restaurant toward her. No one seems to be reacting with the horror and disgust you'd expect. Tina looks a bit worried, but she always does.



Ziggy, 2014-06-04.

Ziggy is at the doctor's, with a thermometer in his mouth.
"Your test results are in..." says the doctor. "Are you trying to be funny?"
Obviously Ziggy is not, he is the punchline.

Weekend Workshop: Unsanitary Restaurants

Based on Tina's Groove 2014-03-04.
Based on Blondie 2014-03-05.
And here's an avatar I made from this week's classic Mandrake Sunday (originally published 1941-11-23):

And a reminder that I also have a Facebook page, where you can see the modified comics for each Weekend Workshop as I make them instead of waiting for Sunday plus get notifications when I update this blog, and a Twitter which includes all that plus additional (funny?) comments about a bunch of comics each day.

And in case you're not already aware of them, Comics Kingdom and GoComics are the best places to read the daily comics online, and you may also enjoy The Comics Curmudgeon, The Lovely Ladies of Apartment 3-G, Mary Worth & Me,  Son of Stuck Funky and Luann DeGroot on Twitter.

Tina's Groove

Gus, Tina and Suzanne are at a bar. Gus has a beer, Tina has a glass of wine and Suzanne has a martini bigger than her head.
"I've got people living vicariously through me..." she explains. "I can't let them down."

Tina's Groove

While taking a shower, Monica is struck by lightning, complete with thunder, that comes through her shower-head. Later at the restaurant she tells Tina and Gus about it.
"Either it's defective, or my rain showerhead has a tempest feature." she says.
Tina and Gus stare wordlessly at her, no doubt wondering why she isn't at a hospital given the Harvey Dent style burns to one side of her face.

Tina's Groove

Tina stands outside the door to the men's toilets.
"Carlos?" she calls out. "When will you be back to work?"

Maternity leave for men.

Tina's Groove

"Mike is great, but I think he's a little too laid-back for me..." says Tina, pressing a button on a machine of some kind, a look of hopeless resignation on her face. Her coworker looks on angrily.

Flashback to Tina talking to Mike as he lies on a bed. He is wearing a t-shirt, underwear, and for some reason, socks.

"Aren't you gonna talk to your landlord about your eviction notice?" asks Tina, sadly.

"Of course." says Mike. "I wanna ask him where he got this cool font."

Returning to the present, Tina's colleague speaks up. "So when are you gonna evict him from your place?"

Either ignoring or simply not hearing the question, Tina examines the paper she's just printed out (the machine was a printer, I guess).

"I hope he likes this font..." she says, morosely.
