The Daily Comics for 7/29/08

Do you feel that there should be daily comics in color in newspapers? It's more effort to force on people who are already working hard every day, but in my opinion, the color adds so much! There are lots of traditional comic strips available in color, and most web comics are in color too. Is it time for grayscale daily comics to go the way of the dinosaur? Are there certain comics that benefit from black and white only? We'd love to hear your opinions!


Marmaduke 7/29/08

"You see, he is gigantic! Don't you get that Marmaduke is a HUGE dog? I've got to scoop his crap with a snow shovel! Someone kill me."


Nancy 7/29/08

There must be a missing panel right after the first one because this doesn't make any sense otherwise. I'm guessing, just from reading this strip the last few months, it went something like this: Sluggo stands over Nancy, kicking sand in her face and saying "That's the stupidest idea I've ever heard."


Pearls Before Swine 7/29/08

Maybe this is why I've always had a problem with those people, they're just unnatural.


The Fusco Brothers 7/29/08

Here we see how going from irrelevant comics to creepy sexual innuendo comics is one of the best ways to get yourself featured on Daily Comics Review. It's more enjoyable to read Fusco Brothers if you imagine they speak in a low gravely deep voice, real creepy slow like. Try it!


Alley Oop 7/29/08

Alley Oop is on a quest to contact his creators for some boring reason and has finally found them. Turns out they are two flat, featureless gradient-maps shaped slightly like humans.


For Better or For Worse 7/29/08

We present the first and hopefully last comic to feature an old man biting his own nipple. And people say For Better or For Worse is past its prime!


Dick Tracy 7/29/08

I've bitched a lot about the rediculous lack of gun use in superhero comics where cops are often present (see the whole Spider-Man plot currently running) but Dick Tracy is a detective. He has no super powers, but doesn't use his gun in the most obvious situation. Let me set it up for you: You are being attacked by dogs that are trained to kill people. You have a gun, but you decide to give them a steak instead in the hopes of distracting them. Either Dick's writer is losing it or Mr. Tracy is really a sleeper operative for PETA.


Overcompensating 7/29/08

Best comic today. We lean kinda left, deal with it.
