A raffle to raise money to fund the school sports programs? Are you shitting me? OK, Mr. Chamber of Commerce president, let’s “get all the businesses in town to contribute something”…I’m sure the Village Booksmith will— oh, nevermind. Maybe Komix Korner? He hasn’t paid his rent in over a year. What about Citizen Khan’s Deli? Hell, nobody’s seen him in over six months.
Today’s strip would have worked just fine as a two-panel, with Bull blurting out his “athletic supporter” remark as Funky and Les exchange knowing smirks. But how much more fun is it to have Funky patronize him, while Les looks on as if to say, “I know, right? The big oaf didn’t even get my Shakespeare reference earlier!” Stupid though he may appear, Bull at least knows when he’s being mocked.
