Shoes, gold, sharks, bacon, forgetful children, and clutter! Oh my?
It's a new week, so there's no need for delays. Except for, perhaps, a shameless plug.
Anyway, the comics -
Judge Parker:
This is what happens when someone reads a strip after having not read it in a long while. I really have no idea what's going on here, and I certainly didn't know the Spencers had a shoe lab. I'm not entirely sure I know what a shoe lab is.
The upside, however, is that I found the strip quite amusing. The fact that it makes absolutely no sense to me makes it far more enjoyable than it would have been otherwise.
Spiderman:
Just one question here: Why is Iron Man known as "The Golden Avenger" when he's mostly red, at least in this particular depiction? I don't read very many Marvel comics, so maybe that's why I'm in the dark about it. Perhaps someone else can fill me in.
Family Circus:
The question he's really asking is whether he has just won or lost, because it appears that the game is over no matter what. How unfortunate. If I was the mother, I'd just say, "Doesn't matter. We'll just start over." If this happened several times, I'd say, "If you're not going to take this game seriously, there's no reason for me to play with you. Now, this time REMEMBER your role!"
This is why I'm not a mother. Hopefully I won't do that when I'm a father, either.
Rubes:
But he is the Jaws of life! He just comes off looking a bit mean. His teeth are actually quite dull, and he does a great job of prying people out of cars. Mr. fireman, you don't need to keep holding up that tree anymore, thanks.
Pearls Before Swine:
Wait a second... Pig eats bacon...?!
I always thought he was Jewish. Reform Jew, I guess.
Graffiti:
You do realize that you've just insulted every single one of your readers with this panel, don't you? Okay, as long as you realized that.
