The Saturday Comics: Mutts Comic Cons 3

Every year one of my favorite comic strips, Mutts, pays homage to the San Diego Comic Con by turning its strip over to superheroes. Last week, I looked back at the last couple of years and now this week, the current run of Mutts comic cons. This series features Bip and Bop, a pair of acorn-loving squirrels. (And by “acorn-loving” I mean “they love to drop acorns on people’s heads.”) BTW- note the X-Men in their original costumes and Iron Man in a very early (and accurate) version of his armor.

I will never understand why they insist on standing under that tree.

 

Another Example of Do-Nothing Government

What am I paying taxes for if not to get my local streets fixed and properly repaired? If I lived in England I would be very upset.

This is an egregious breach of the public trust. This could be bad- very bad. ANYTHING could come through that portal- Roman Centurions, anal-probing aliens from Betelgeuse, even an other-dimensional Kanye West where he is pregnant with Kim Kardashian’s baby. Frankly, I can’t have that.

And the snake? Is no one else concerned that it could be Jörmungandr, the Midgard Serpent of Norse mythology whose final battle with Thor will be fought at Ragnarök? This could be the end, ladies and gentlemen. You may be reading the last installment of Mr. Blog’s Tepid Ride and, indeed, everything else as well.

So I say goodbye, internet public. Goodbye world. So long to all that I have known. This vortex is going to be the end of us all.

And the local Brighton officials will have no one else to blame when the pregnant Kanye West comes after them.
