…but don’t tell me that BMcE couldn’t draw the face of an orgasmic woman.

Unless he’s never seen the face 0–oh, never mind.

Apparently Mary Worth will be re-introducing a character from several years ago (before I started reading The Comics Curmudgeon and pursuing my life of mashing).  Irene’s son was incarcerated for making meth and dreaming of becoming the lead in Breaking Badhey! A slacker can dream, can’t he?

Whatever the premise, it seems comic hijinx will ensue!  Be there!

New MW

Well, maybe not “comic” hijinx, but perhaps Action Aplenty!

Some folks are sticklers for detail, and although I don’t know how thick a small plane’s wings should be in order to allow it successful flight, I will certainly bow to the expertise of others on this topic.

OTOH, CC’s Dale appears to have an alternative use for those aircraft that are a wee bit under FAA standards. Wheeeeeee!

AND IN THE SAME STORYLINE!!

Are we excited because this shows an expert understanding of outlining a riveting plot? Or that it plunges into a multi-faceted, multi-themed story? Or that it explores its characters with a surprising incisiveness?

Nope. It just means Judge Pissyface it back…YAY!

So. We’ve determined that there is only one virgin in New Hampshire.  And counting…

Oh, fine. Now we have the honeymoon to deal with.

The Comics Curmudgeon‘s faithful Poteet knows a metric butt-ton of the flora, fauna and ecology of the Great Plains (weren’t they the three fairy godmothers in Sleeping Beauty, too?).  Always striving to increase her knowledge beyond those horizons (yes, even beyond the state line of Lu Ann Powell’s beloved East Dakota), when she suggests that a certain comic strip could be improved by substituting elephant seals for the current characters, who am I to dispute this Great Notion?
