cat & girl is nicely drawn but makes less sense than day by day

does your crazy ex like these?

cat and girl lost the plot at some point but the ones you've just reposted are actually good

Ok you don't like it. we get the point! i think if you peek at the "batshit right wing cartoons" thread you'll see this shit called "day by day" that makes this junk look like it was done by picaso.

From these examples Cat & Girl seems a lot better. The jokes don't make much sense, but they're not nearly as trite and obvious. Also, yes, quite nice drawings.

Nothing ever happens in QC. They just mention a band, make some zing and then hint at sex. It is very boring. I still read it though because I like the anthropc and want one.

Hey I like QC. Love it. SA Rock City looks kind of shit from the examples here tho.

I think you could be onto something here. Today, our protagonist finds out what happens when one wears a nylon shirt for just over two months; tomorrow they become a 'pigeon detective' in an attempt to find out why they get covered in shit every time they step out the house

it's strange that there isn't, to my knowledge, a brit indie equivilant of these comics. i guess cos amerindie is into books and comics and geekiness while britindie, well, isn't.
i was thinking more of the protagonist searching for 5live on AM for a long time. yr idea is better. keep the ideas coming, we could sell this stuff to drowned in sound!

On a Kerrang thread some time back we mourned long-dead K! strips and the continuing existence of Pandora... but that isn't really what we're looking for I suppose

I Don't get it... Why does the guy who confesses his indie guilt have vampire teeth? And why did he put the Dolly Parton cassette in his mouth? Are these two things interrelated?
― Tuomas, Friday, 15 June 2007 12:12 (sixteen years ago) link
actually Tuomas that was the only thing on this entire thread I laughed at, but I can't explain why
― marmotwolof, Friday, 15 June 2007 12:15 (sixteen years ago) link
I agree that the "hugging a mestruating woman" strip is the worst. Because, you know, when you hug a woman with mensies some blood may squirt out of her! EW!
― Tuomas, Friday, 15 June 2007 12:20 (sixteen years ago) link
x-post I mean I can try, but...you know the speeches people give at AA and NA meetings about how they hit rock bottom?
― marmotwolof, Friday, 15 June 2007 12:21 (sixteen years ago) link
The vampire is a long-running character. I dunno - I think Dom's posted one poor C&G strip and two good ones, so I don't know what point he's trying to make.
― Mark C, Friday, 15 June 2007 12:22 (sixteen years ago) link
Okay, so hitting the rock bottom is putting Dolly Parton in your mouth, I get that. But why the teeth?

also, can we throw Penny Arcade and Dustinland into the debate here? PA is occasionally funny (when the video game refs don't go over my head) but this whole genre of comics that are just a stand-in for the author wearing a band shirt and saying shit they say to their friends has got to stop. wtf happened to comics about talking animals and incongruously worldly children?

I didn't like how the author attempted comic-relief at the end of the strip (I think it's kind of a cop-out), but strips like this, and this storyline in particular are what prompt me to regularly read Questionable Content.

there's a rhythmic jolt between the 3rd and 4th panels that makes it impossible to rap these lines properly. it would work if it were "so kick back relax, let me put on some Adele for ya/ and tell you why I'm running for the town of Philadelphia," but as it is, you'd either have to throw your rhythm totally off or insert an awkward extra beat between "ya" and "while". c'mon, Randall Patrick Munroe, sort it out!
