I’m with Katy in today’s Adam@Home. We haven’t had actual snow here lately but we’ve only had two days of warm sunshiny weather so far and even the warmish days that might have come close have, instead, featured cold winds. It might as well be March. However, the birds are back, including the cormorants, as […]
Well, Arlo (AMS), the problem is that you’re celebrating the wrong saint. If you wait two days, you can have corned beef and cabbage on your St. Joseph’s Table at a heavily discounted price. Best of all, Festa di San Giuseppe falls on a Sunday this year, so you don’t need a dispensation to have […]
Some days are political, some days are comical. Today is a mix, but we’ll start with the shock of Michael Ramirez (Creators) pointing out that Marjorie Taylor Greene is an embarrassment to the Republican Party. Constant Readers will know I often disagree with Ramirez, but he doesn’t simply illustrate talk radio nonsense and this is […]
Today’s Judge Parker (KFS) has set me thinking about continuity strips, and, since there are only a few left, that puts me in the somewhat uncomfortable position of criticizing this one, which isn’t my point. I think there should be more continuity strips, because, whether they would induce people to buy newspapers, they’d at least […]
The ship is unstuck and we’ve got to get back to other topics and other tropes. Mike Luckovich (AJC) noted the problem conservatives had when Biden nailed his press conference, but they managed to edit together a few random moments when he paused and one when he dropped a subject and moved on. It helps […]
Seems like a quiet day in the cartooning universe, but a lack of stark drama allows for some more quiet appreciation. For example, in his weekly taking-of-the-wheel at Bizarro (KFS), Dan Piraro touches on one of my pet peeves — see what I did there? — which is “Lady and the Tramp Syndrome,” a bit […]
Not only is it TGIF, but it’s also TGIR, which stands for “Thank God I’m Retired,” because this Andertoons might otherwise spark a bout of depression. The only suspense in visits from Corporate was whether they were sending a deliberate liar or just someone who didn’t know what was going on. We had a […]
Start with an old man’s correction to a lot of Moon Landing cartoons. It was not the Moon landing that made people aware of the need to preserve the Earth. It was Apollo 8, seven months earlier, from which this iconic photo of the Big Blue Marble was taken. Seeing the Earth rise over the […]
Jimmy Johnson has a dedicated following, but it was still ballsy of him to produce a comic using only Arlo & Janis’s former hairstyles as an indicator that it’s set in the past. I’m just pointing it out, not criticizing it, and he’s crafted a cartoon that stands up even if you didn’t realize it […]
