The Daily Comics Review: Ziggy, Soon to be a Slave to the U.S. Government

by Hal Bent

Late getting to it today, but we're getting to it.  Let me start off with my usual hatred of all things Ziggy to get the ball rolling and make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside: 

Ziggy by Tom Wilson & Tom II:

Hah, hah, Ziggy, you pant-less freak!  Not all indentured servitude in the past was voluntary and Ziggy is going to be hauled to the document shredding department of the IRS for the next few years.  Of course, the US Government is going to provide food, accommodation, clothing and training as part of the servitude so at least he has to wear pants.  Also, I can hold onto the hope that tax-dodge Ziggy here, like most indentured servants in history, don't live out their term due to the oppressive working conditions.  No more Ziggy, ahhh, what a lovely world that would be...


The Norm by Michael Jantze:

Now that's a snarky comic!  Well done, Michael Jantze, a tip of the cap to you for calling out the coffee baristas with their uppity poor service. That said, short of McDonalds, where do you find a cup of joe for a buck?


Lucky Cow by Mark Pett:

Today brings us the rebuttal to the Norm and their poor service in Lucky Cow (Home of the $1 coffee?).  Neil shows that poor customer service is derived from lack of intuition, ignorance, and inability to care about some poor shaded out patron's hatred of all things mayonnaise.  The Mayonnaise Murderer struck immediately after leaving the Lucky Cow restaurant, enraged at being denied his mustard and committed crimes of hideous nature that the mind cannot comprehend (short of having ever watched NCIS, CSI, Law & Order, etc...OK, so easy to imagine carnage).


The Middletons by Ralph Dunagin and Dana Summers:

I've never casually compared cable bills with my neighbor at the fence.  Not something I'd think of doing, I guess.  That said, I'd pay $10 a month to keep that Honey Boo Boo crap of my telly. So what else do these two compare at the fence each day?  Tomorrow on the Middletons, Moustache Guy whips it out to compare size with the neighbor?
