Luckily there's no evidence to prove that in court.

Wasn't that so out of character for Mark and the strip in general? Unless the plan really was to bring him back at some point. Mark was so nonchalant about the whole thing.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑30 Mar 2021, 1:08pmLuckily there's no evidence to prove that in court.

Re: The Mark Trail Thread of Punching Justice and Smug Life Lessons
There was a blog post where the author, a critic of the old writer, said that he was the basis for Harvey, so the whole narrative was a spiteful fuck you.revbob wrote: ↑30 Mar 2021, 2:14pmWasn't that so out of character for Mark and the strip in general?

What if it's a Rapple Snackbook? It makes BikBok way better.

This shit just gets dumber by the day.
Also why is the guy holding his phone like he has to speak into the mic when he has what looks like is a bluetooth earpiece in his ear?

It's been so boring that I haven't found anything to be snarky about. The kids like the dull, I guess.

Re: The Mark Trail Thread of Punching Justice and Smug Life Lessons
It's been two months since the last post here. What's happened? Mark helped steal a laptop and upload some code, he did some boxing, and Cherry's at war with her HOA about plants and got her hillbilly brother who looks like he wears a fake beard to unleash feral hogs as revenge.
Annnnnyway, I'm far more intrigued by the cloaking technology of cars that is activated when turning off the headlights. Is this a standard feature on newer models?

I'll confess to still reading this for some unknown reason. Mark is hanging out with a bunch of adults with weird nicknames who cosplay as lizards and insects 24x7, and Cherry fancies herself as a budding earth first activist with the help of her anti gummint brother living off the grid.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑10 Jul 2021, 7:47am

I still say this should have been a totally new strip from the get go, let the old one die the tired death it deserved and call the new one something else and carry out your vision.

Re: The Mark Trail Thread of Punching Justice and Smug Life Lessons
I think she needs a writer. The art is mostly quite good but the storytelling is, to be kind, not compelling. Even if it's going to be more of a Dick Tracy kind of thing, the narrative fails to make me care what happens next.revbob wrote: ↑10 Jul 2021, 8:55amI'll confess to still reading this for some unknown reason.

Who the fuck says "flapjacks" ?
Ive traveled over a good portion of this country and eaten at lots of diners and such but never seen "flapjacks" on the menu nor heard a real human refer to them as such.
