What Masheka Said for 2012-02-04

February 4th, 2012 by Masheka Wood

  • Exciting night! Saw my mom's cat butt-scoot across the kitchen floor & my toddler said 'Shit'. Neither was my fault, by the way. #

Mud Dragons Gallery

February 3rd, 2012 by Kevin Moore

As part of my glacial progress in fleshing this site out, I have created a new gallery on the illustrations page. Last year Ben Lehman commissioned me to draw illustrations and the cover for Mud Dragons, an RPG he has since published.

But you can view it here if ya like.

Wanderlost, Time Travel Edition

February 3rd, 2012 by Kevin Moore

Two most recent page updates have involved a discussion of time travel. If you think, “Hey, that seems like quite a tangent for a comic about a wandering pig to take,” you are probably right. It’s all Mr. Guzek’s fault. Don’t ask me, I just work here.

Oh! Pardon! Didn’t see you folks there! I was just trying to get a simple template down for elementary updates such as the following
a cartoon of the simple sort, making no pretense to wider relevance or import.New Book Number 8!
Hey, readers, there’s another Bob book coming up, debuting July 2012 at San Diego Comic-Con.
But OH NO! I haven’t finished it, nor do I even have a title!
If any regular readers, all 36 to 87 of you, have ideas for titles for the new book, please send them my way!

Lame Games

Some fake video games. If I knew anything about modern programming, I think most of these could work as browser-based games or apps. And if you have a tin ear like me, this book could come in handy.

I have a Super Bowl comic in the works for The Strip, so be sure to check in over the weekend.


Reagan Endorses

February 3rd, 2012 by Matt Bors

Claiming the mantle of Reagan is the most important process in becoming the face of the GOP. Mitt has the look and the animus towards the poor down pat, but Gingrich isn’t letting this one go without a battle.

I don’t really buy the current narrative that the fighting between Mitt and Newt is destroying the GOP brand. You may recall a few years ago wondering how sycophantic Hillary supporters could ever be convinced to support Obama and a few weeks later wondering if people would stop holding hands and singing long enough to realize he wasn’t as great as everyone thought.

Negatives are up today for the GOP candidates, but voters have no memory and hatred for Obama is the Gorilla Glue of the Republican party.

Daily Kos’ McCarthyite Cartoon Censorship

February 2nd, 2012 by Ted Rall

So last May 2011 the blog Daily Kos conducted a poll of their readers asking whether they wanted my cartoons added to the then-new Daily Kos comics line-up, which includes a bunch of like-minded altie/leftie comix, the likes of which I typically run with.

Here was the poll:

“I’d like to see Ted Rall added to the DK4 comics lineup”

Results:
Yes
83% 420 votes

No
16% 86 votes

Total 506 votes

They’re still adding comics. Not me. Apparently I’m too critical of Obama. DK owner Markos tweeted today about my being blackballed: “Feeling entitled much?”

It’s not about me, Markos. It’s about your readers.

What is this, a Florida election?
