Cartoons/comic strips
-
I thought I would start a new thread to showcase good cartoons or comic strips. Starting with this belter I saw today
Awesome job on making two completely separate jokes in one picture...
-
despite the overwhelming lack of interest, I'll continue to post items I come across in here.
Have discovered a cartoon called Jucika. This was by a Hungarian cartoonist in the late 1950's. Jucika is an attractive young woman, and the cartoon focuses on satirizing sexism. Part of the fun is working out what is happening in each one, as it is not always immediately apparent
-
A lot going on in this Jucika cartoon.
:::
When she leaves in the morning, she has the rightmost apartment, but construction is ongoing. By the time she turns up at the end of the day, another apartment has been built, and she mistakenly enters that apartment, causing the new tenant to throw his mistress out of the window, thinking it is his wife at the door

100%, I needed to check out the spoiler! I don't quite get the dress/painting one either

@hooroo The dress painting one she has just gotten back from a holiday, but not gotten a tan, so paints one on

Nice! Cheers. I didn't see the subtle tone change in the colour.

since it is a scans from newspapers in the 50's and 60's, colours are not the greatest

I don't know about your Mum, but:

Gary Larson is a genius who was occasionally weird, but Gahan Wilson was more often than not, just weird..

Loved the Alex storylines - particularly the ones with the Christmas theme.
-
Alex was great for a small window then just repetitive. Calvin and Hobbs would be my favourite for a long read, and obviously the Far Side is a special. Except that one that I never got. Jim's garage or something. Going to hunt for it now.

Middle School for the Gifted was one that always stood out for me.

Like Bloom County it was 100% perfect for its time. Loved Opus.

@gt12 One of my all time favourites. I am neither confirming nor denying that I have done that.
I have done that. Ferry flight with just cabin crew on board.
Some people have no sense of humour. -

Used to love Whizzer and Chips as a kid. Buster was okay, but not as good

@victor-meldrew No love for Billy and the Boingers?
Bloom County rocked
Nope

I've put all of my friends (except for the hot ones) on facebook on ignore and am only tuning into Far Side and Calvin & Hobbes groups, and this is why:

One of my all time favourites. I am neither confirming nor denying that I have done that.
I know a BA Captain who refused to confirm or deny he once started his pre-flight monologue to the passengers with the words:
"My name is Captain xxx .... This is my first flight since I finished a weeks refresher course on the 747 flight simulator where I successfully experienced 6 serious crashes and survived 3...
Let me start that again..."

Matt is focussed mainly on UK current affairs, but one of the best around.
