The Saturday Comics: Mary Worth (2012)

30 Jun

June 30, 2012

Let’s check in on Mary Worth. Last time we saw the nosey old biddy, she was all up in arms over that new fad, social networking! What’s happening now? Let’s see!

Wow, what a … great… five days.

Last year, Mary was in exactly one panel. This time, none at all. Did she die? Is this strip now named Mary Worth in her honor? Or is she too boring to appear in her strip? I don’t know and I don’t care. There is a reason I only read it one time each year.

Meanwhile, what I want to know is, when did Mary Worth start ripping off Seinfeld?

The Saturday Comics: Rex Morgan M.D. (2012)

23 Jun

June 23, 2012

The last time we checked in on Rex Morgan, M.D. they were in te middle of an odd run in which a man’s prostate troubles had gone viral on Twitter. Think I made that up? Click here and see for yourself.

Let’s see what he’s up to today.

Hmm. Not a lot of doctoring going on, is there? And ol’ Rex is looking a little younger. I think he’s had some work done.

This is how Rex looked the last time we saw him. He’s had a little nip and tuck, I think. Plus he’s dying his hair.

This strip is still playing to its aging audience. A Don Knotts reference? Really? And while I can’t say that’s a bad run of strips, it sure isn’t the old days, when Rex would, you know, be a doctor.
