In today’s action-packed segment, we see Bull fly off the handle after a bad call. The Scapegoats are probably like 3rd and 50, it’s no wonder Coach is so tense.
Also this guy. What the hell is going on with his shoulder? Is his arm growing out of the side of his neck or something? And aren’t penalty flags yellow? Maybe the ref is surrendering so Bull will back off.
Hello there, fellow snarkers! HeyItsDave here, back from hiatus with more Funky Felt Tip adventures.
Yesterday, the leaves in town were falling as fast as Funky’s hair, hopefully without leaving some kind of nasty clog that Holly will have to dig out of the sink trap later. And falling leaves in Funky Winkerbean always mean that we’ll be segueing into some kind of melodramatic tale of woe.
I was really hoping that this week was going to stay focused on Frankie and Lenny. They’re like the Funkyverse version of Pokemon’s Team Rocket – all nefarious and blackhearted and always tripping over their own goddamn feet. But no, today we’re back in Westview to watch Bull Bushka descend into concussion-induced madness. What is it with T-Bats and autumn, anyway? Seems like as soon as the foliage turns he starts obsessing about decay and death. And maybe domestic abuse, given Linda’s face in panel three.
Speaking of decline, is Tommy farming out some of the drawing duties here? I detect a distinct stylistic difference between the way background extras are usually drawn and the way this crowd is rendered.
Not much to say about this one other than today’s strip could have been/should have been a three-panel daily. Oh, and that since high school, Funky is aging at 1.5x the speed of Les while Cindy is aging at .5x the speed of everyone else.
A taco truck on the corner threatens the very existence of Mason Jarre, American’s Favorite Actor’s movie in today’s strip! Before the bad guys leap into what I assume will be limited action, I’d like to remind everyone not to get too excited– it’s possible Monday will start a new story arc back in Westview where the kids are excitedly babbling about the “new” Star Wars movie that came out a year ago.
Sosfdavido here, though I don’t know if anyone else is! If you guys checked out, I don’t blame you, as today’s strip left things completely unresolved. Panel two Darin is enjoyable, though, as Tombat suddenly seemed to remember these two are supposed to be father and son.
