Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Nothing like spending a week building up to a big event, then skipping over it to show the aftermath. If Batiuk had written the comics adaptation of âStar Wars,â it would have been several issues of the Rebels planning to attack the Death Star, followed immediately by Princess Leia handing out medals (âBoy, that sure was great the way you guys blew up the Death Star and sent Darth Vader careening across the galaxy!â).
SoâŠthe Ukraine fundraiser was just a con? So Dinkle could pocketâŠhow much money? Arenât the handful of people left in this rust belt town starving and bankrupt, having wasted every dollar at the Mandatory Book Signings?
âIâm in SHOW BUSINESS!â cries the delirious hag, mad from hunger. âWhen they make a Netflix documentary on you, DINKLE!â She collapses as Dinkle gleefully grabs her check. And those jars of baby food he told everyone to buy for Ukraineâs orphans. He screams âDINKLE FEASTS ON GERBERâS TONIGHT!â
Lil, never mind the âtax bracketâ stuff. Judging by the number of books I didnât see you signing in the last several yearsâI mean, weeks (just seems like years)âI doubt this even lifts you above the poverty line.

I thought âtonightâs gigâ was a fundraiser for Ukraine. Shouldnât they all be donating their checks to the war relief effort?

âHeh. You got that right, Lil! It probably cost me more to write out the check than what itâs worth!â

Thereâs no business like show business like no business I know
Everything about it is depressing, everything that traffic will allow
Nowhere could you get that sad feeling when you are stealing some extra chow
Thereâs no people like show people, they eat so little when they are low
Even with a turkey that you know will fold, you may be stranded out in the cold
Man I would change it for a sack of gold, but letâs go on with the show

Once upon a time, back in college, I received a bill for one penny. on the check, I wrote: âOne Lousy Rotten Filthy Stinking Centâ (true story).
