Bad Machinery by John Allison for July 15, 2022

“When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.” – I Corinthians 13:11

You never really grow out of Super Charles and Dark Rotuss.

Not his toys!!! Oh memories gone! =(

Poor Sonny. In this story he’s the one hurted the most.

Have a great day my friends.

Lottie is clueless once again.

Some things you never outgrow.

Gotta give Sonny some props though, for him trying to put on a brave face and pretend it doesn’t bother him for the sake of the greater good here.

These are a few of my favorite things…

Ok, sorry – I already commented once on today’s strip, so, I can’t help my inner juvenile self with this…

You shouldn’t t it about with tat.

(Apparently, t it is now a banned word.)

Folks, I’ve enjoyed reading and commenting on Bad Machinery over the years now.

I first fell in love with it when I found a free Bad Machinery comic book on, yes, Free Comic Book Day, oh, about 5 tears ago.

It is so well written that reading it second time is as entertaining as the first time I read the series. I’m retired and on a fixed income, so being able to read it on GoComics has been a blessing and I thank John Allison for posting it here.

John is a great and prolific artist/author. If you are reading Bad Machinery and enjoying it, then I urge you to seek out his other works.

Among those are Bobbins and other of his works on the internet, and I thank John for that too. Especially “The Great Unboxing” – I recommend that highly if you haven’t read it yet. That is the adventure during which a man disappears between the tents, which has been occasionally mentioned in the Bad Machinery comments section.

John has also published many books, and if you are able, I urge you to purchase those. As I have mentioned, I am on a fixed income, so have only read a few of them, but they are as entertaining as Bad Machinery, and you won’t be wasting your money if you buy them.

Now for the part of this comment that I reluctantly write.

I have recently been experiencing bullying from another commenter, and, at my age, I don’t want to put up with it and I don’t need to put up with it and I don’t have to put up with it.

It spoils my whole experience, and I don’t want to lose the wonderful feeling I get when I read about these silly antics of lower/middle school students in England.

So, sorry, but no more comments from me, at least for the near future. That way I will be able to read Bad Machinery and enjoy it, AND, read the comments and enjoy them, but just not commenting myself.

This will at least make the bully happy, I am sure. And maybe some others happy also… I don’t know.

Anyway, Good Bye for now, my fellow Bad Machinery fans…

Growing older is not optional, growing up is.
