We Have All the Time in the World for Comics

Bizarro 8/27/08
bizarro comics
Well our last session for a while at least. I am crazy busy at work for the next few weeks and I am also going on vacation from tomorrow-Monday. The Amazing Brian will be filling in for me over vacation and updates will be a little later than usual for the next few weeks, but rest assured that the DCR will keep kicking butt, just like Bizarro.


Buckles 8/27/08

It might be one day early but Buckles busted out a great haiku that had to be posted.


Days of Thunder 8/27/08

Skirting the edge of stereotypes and offensiveness, Days of Thunder walks a thin line but walks it so well!


Dick Tracy 8/27/08

With this horrible storyline finally wrapping up, we should look back on the adventures of Squinty McGee. Shirl Locke got hired as a detective even though she was an escaped mental patient and some old guy got eaten by his own rabid killer dogs. If you haven't been reading Dick for the last month it would almost seem like that would be entertaining, but it sure wasn't.


Cornered 8/27/08

A perfect example of the old comic strip mantra "art can't save bad jokes but great jokes can save bad art".

The Noodge Review 8/20/08

There is only so much you can do when you're just not feeling it. The last couple days haven't been the best comic posts, in my opinion, and I'm striving to pick up my game. Today is looking up though so hopefully the second half of the week will bring kick ass comic reviews.

Retail 8/20/08
retail, noodge
"Two days in a row?" you're thinking. This may be a DCR first but I had to post today's Retail so we could discuss a matter of utmost importance. What the hell is a noodge? There is apparently an actual definition but lets do two DCR firsts in one day and start a poll to choose our favorite definition. We'll let the poll run a few days and it will be in the left sidebar towards the top for your ease of use!


Rex Morgan M.D. 8/20/08

Today's Rex Morgan daily comic is brought to you by the US Department of Health and Human Services... sheesh. Do you have athsma? If you don't want to die, go see your doctor immediatley! A comic strip doctor says so!


Days of Thunder 8/20/08

Dinosaur Comics 8/20/08

If you love accounting humor and really bad puns, this may be the best comic you will ever read, EVER. Of course the possibility that the 10 other people in the world besides me who fit that criteria also read this blog is astronimically small, but you can't blame a guy for trying.

Daily Comics for the World 6/17/08

Keeping you up to date on the comic strip news is one area I would like to increase our content so today I'm reporting on a new artist for the strip Working Daze. New artists always make me dislike the comic for a while until I get used to the new style. When characters you are attached to suddenly start looking different it takes some getting used to. The previous art style was more rigid, where as the new artist Kyle Miller seems to be going with a lighter, wavier comic. We'll keep you posted to any other changes in the future!


Diesel Sweeties Web Comic 6/17/08

The Weezer Blue Album was one of the most influential CDs in my life in middle school/early high school. I can still listen to it any time and enjoy it all the way through. I haven't heard anything they have done since the Green Album and I'm not really a fan any more. I kind of subscribe to the idea that if you go 7 years without putting out a good CD (sorry Pinkerton fans) you can't expect me to keep waiting. Who knows though, maybe there's a new "Sweater Song" on the Red Album.


Crankshaft 6/17/08
Photobucket
Wow Crankshaft! You've proven that stupid Family Circus jokes don't get any better when an old cranky asshole is using them. Why would the Keane Bros. let the FC kids grow up if they'd still not be funny? Those guys know more about comic strips than they have let on all these years.


Days of Thunder 6/17/08
Photobucket
As often as I don't get Days of thunder, it's still one of the best comic strips thanks to the edgy, off-beat humor. Posting this comic was my patriotic duty for the day.

I'd love for the comics to be funny again 5/28/08

I've been struggling lately with the print comics and web comics. I either feel they are boring or stupid, but they don't inspire me to write anything. I've been working a lot on getting the website name out there in networks and working with other bloggers on sharing links. Apparently the black background with white type is hard on some people's eyes so I may be redesigning the color scheme soon. Anyways I'll shut up now.

Days of Thunder 5/28/08

Thanks for the throw-back today DOT. I remember in college when I learned how to scratch records just a little bit and I can't imagine how hard it would be to do on one of those retro players there. Hoo dawgy.


Rex Morgan M.D. 5/28/08
Photobucket
The current Rex storyline is so confusing and boring I wont try to explain it here, but they have hit on a very disturbing new trend I was unaware of. Arson has become so popular among high school students that they are willing to light any large pile of debris aflame. So much so that 24-hour guard is required to make sure no "trash-burners" attacked. Just because it's a comic about a doctor doesn't meant it's logical or makes any sense.

Friday and Saturday comics for May 9th-10th

Friday was hellish for work and for cartoons so I didn't make any posts and today I was very busy, but since I still have 1 hour till Sunday I can slip one little comic in here for ya!

Days of Thunder 5/10/08

























This comic reminds me of my weekend. Business in the front, party in the back. I can't remember two days in a row of more mediocre comics in a long time. Thanks DoT for keeping things interesting.

Monday April 5, 2008 comics!

After a weekend spent trying fix my computer I ultimately succeeded in getting the machine working great once again. I failed to update the blog though and when you have as many readers as I do I just have to apologize to all....... wait, nobody reads this. Anyways today we got tons of comics, way better than last Monday!


Days of Thunder 5/5/08























As as far as the various single panel comics out there go, Days of Thunder falls about in the middle of the spectrum. It is drawn very basic and the humor is very dry but it is seldom boring or even stupid. I liked todays comic very much so I figured I would share it.


Edge City 5/5/08








I worked for 3 months at a big box electronics store and I have to say this is not the way it would have worked. The customer in this comic doesn't even get angry at the clerk. In the real world the customer would insist we look in the back of the store and make sure we don't have any more. Then the clerk would need to get on the phone with the other store and make sure they pulled the item and set it aside. The fact of the matter is it's cheaper almost always to buy your electronics off the internet, but that just isn't funny.


Mark Trail 5/5/08








Talking birds and hands in this Monday edition of MT. As the scheme has now been hatched we can see Mark hasn't lost his touch for outsmarting all manner of outlaws. Apparently the town paper has nothing to report ever if Mark can get a story about how much he loves his dog some front page love.


Marvin 5/5/08








Apart from Marvin's "come hither" stare in the first frame this strip alarms me to the fact that 2 year olds no have access to computers, the internet, and their own email addresses. We're seeing carpal tunnel earlier and earlier with these kids.


The Phantom 5/5/08








The introduction of a new plot line and none of the panels make any sense, whether you read them separately or together. Oh Ghost-Who-Walks you really need to get your shit together.


Slylock Fox 5/5/08








The better mystery might have been what the hell Slylock fox was doing up in a tree in the middle of the field. Solution - He was going to hang himself after he found out his detective office got foreclosed on. Damn adjustable rates! But as he looked down and saw the big ape with the cash he loosened the noose and apprehended the criminal! With that reward coming his way he can pay to fill his gas tank!


The Amazing Spider-Man 5/5/08








Today we got an all too close look at the bedroom behavior of Mr. and Mrs. Spider-man. Peter apparently likes to be tied up with his own sticky webbing. I'm sure there's a whole online community devoted to the idea.


The Fusco Brothers 5/5/08








This is the first time the Fuscos have actually made me laugh. Ever. Congrats guys, lets work on making it a more regular thing.


We The Robots 5/5/08


















For finally chronicling the innermost thoughts of all men as the spend their time toiling away on a patch of grass, We The Robots gets my comic of the day award, woo hoo!
