Mark Trail, 11/9/19

Genie isn’t just a font of fun Nepal facts, guys! She also understands and respects the privacy rights we all have under HIPAA.

Family Circus, 11/9/19

Ha ha, look at Ma Keane’s face, you guys. “Sounds like a real firetrap!” That’s what finally snuffed out her will to live.

Dennis the Menace, 11/9/19

Damn it Mr. Wilson, unless Dennis is deliberately trying to cut through a gas line, or digging a little torso-sized grave for a dismembered torso, you are way overstating things here.

Pajama Diaries, 11/9/19

Meanwhile, over in Pajama Diaries, everyone is achingly starved for physical affection! Ha ha, what a pleasant thing to read about, in the funny papers!

Definitely what makes this panel worthwhile is the slight smile, right on the cusp between smugness and cruelty, on Big Daddy Keane’s face. “That’s right,” he’s thinking, as he looks knowingly out of the panel straight at us. “Thel’s out for the night and I’m getting these little shits all hepped up on ice cream and you know what? They fuckin’ love me for it. When they can’t fall asleep tonight because of all the sugar coursing through their veins? That’s Thel’s problem. When they demand ice cream for dinner for the rest of the week? That’s Thel’s problem. Serves her right for leaving the house for two hours!”

Sam and Silo, 10/28/19

Big news, everyone! I’ve been reading Sam and Silo for nearly a year, and I’ve finally learned that the guy with the mustache and the hat and the robe (?) and the bible (???) has a name, and that name is “Funny Floyd.” Still don’t really have a handle on literally anything else about his whole deal but with this piece of the puzzle in place maybe we’re on our way to finally cracking the case!

Barney Google and Snuffy Smith, 10/27/19

Maybe it’s because I’m not a parent, but I don’t really understand the “joke” in this strip, which seems like a fairly obvious solution to a relatable problem? Is it because modern-day middle class safety-obsessed parenting would never allow a baby to sit up on a table where he could fall off and hurt himself, even though the simple but wise folks of Hootin’ Holler know that as long as adults are paying attention he’s in no danger? Or is that this is a wonderment to Snuffy and his father because Hootin’ Holler has only recently mastered “chair” technology?

Rex Morgan, M.D., 10/27/19

“Oh, so they think we’re not doing enough medical education in this strip?” said the Rex Morgan, M.D., creative team. “What if we just went into great detail about all the different kinds of medical tests you can get? How’s that for medical education, motherfuckers? Are you not edutained?”

Family Circus, 10/27/19

“You can tell by how depressed he looks! His heart is always crushed by grief whenever he’s not doing the one thing that brings him joy — watching professional football on television — and nothing, not even tending to his beautiful house or spending time with his family, can cheer him up.”
