Transcript:
Alex: So no worries, peeps - all your fave characters will continue on in the strip! Zeke: Sounds good to me! Alex: Zeke, forget it! No way you're making the cut! Zeke: Sure I am - you need my edginess! Hi, Drew. Alex: Excuse me? Could I get a little help here? Zeke: Who're you talking to? Alex: Thank you. Zeke: What the hell?

Alas, I fear this is not the last of Uncle Stupidhead.

Cut the fat Alex.

BW: Alex’s sleeve? Maybe Uncle Spudhead ripped it off BETWEEN panel 2 and panel 3, then put it back on in time for panel 4? Edgy, dude, edgy!

Good girl, Alex. Drop him down to Garfield where he belongs.

This doesn’t really go well with Timeless Trends Corsets (no adblock on my iPad).

also, Garry, you’re not going to go all Batman on us? Can’t you just have them all shoved out on the ice?
Oh, wait…

If all the characters are good guys, where is the conflict?

I might stay away until this arc is done.

Notice, the first thing Uncle Stupidhead does, is hit on Drew!D.T. Pi, Good to see you!

If Trudeau is serious about passing on his strip to the younger generation, then maybe deadwood characters like Zeke will finally get axed. It can’t be soon enough.

Alex’s sleeves are different in each panel. One assumes it’s deliberate, signalling the decline of the strip or something?

Plea #4: say it isn’t so!!!
Cofyjunky over 12 years ago
Yah, gotta get rid of the sleazy step-dad! He comes onto Drew right in front of Alex?? Ewwww!!!

Zeke being Zeke.

not like BO won’t throw us all under the bus, again, these conservative Reagan worshippers are so predictable. lol. so what’s the problem with having fun with these “characters”. getting rid of Jeff would be worth it. republican attitudes are so passe, besides being “unAmerican”, lol. the Jim Crow show is so much fun, but i don’t see that being exposed too much, now
wonder what brought this “interlude” on.
i’d like to see Toggle’s ma find out who his daddy is. and watch Duke and his paranoia. Alex is so navel oriented. loved the ride with her Gma in the snow.
i’d miss the whole bunch and their “sides”. maybe this is just to see our responses to the “takeover”. or prepare for the eventual “change” when and if Trudeau stops the strip.

Poor Mitt. To have supporters like bhinkle. It’s ok, Mitt. The security guards won’t let people like him into your country club.
gaebie over 12 years ago
Yea, get rid of Zeke. Maybe he could move down to Calvin and Hobbs. Imagine Calvin with an Uncle Stupedhead!

I hope this navel-gazing ends soon, and we get back to real events. I hate cominc strips about comic strips

LTBT — Let Trudeau Be Trudeau. Maybe I’ll get a T-shirt that says that on the front. Only, only, if I do, then I’ll hafta wear it inside out to remind myself! Sigh.

Could this be Mike’s summer daydream? or Alex’s? Hmmm… I wonder.
sbeavin over 12 years ago
Tired of the BS- Go back to the real strip and can this crap.

wish I could remove whole portions of memory so easily.

I like Zeke’s hat. That’s about all I like about Zeke, but it is a great hat.

Don’t worry everybody this arc is just like the mailbag filler while Trudeau reloads for another Romney slam.
Now that we can take DT off of the milk cartons we can resume the search for Sheik Yurbouti, once we’ve locate him we will be a complete forum again.
DylanThomas3.14159 over 12 years ago
Lawdy! Am I the only one to notice? Alex’s sleeve is ON in panel 3!
George Alexander over 12 years ago
@ Linguist: Shouldn’t it be “suits” rather than “suites,” oh Linguist?
diggitt over 12 years ago
Troll alert! Incoherent.
tomielm over 12 years ago
Welcome back, DT Pi, you were sorely missed. Seeing your “handle” was like a fresh breeze up in here!
TheDOCTOR over 12 years ago
Zeke is a Perv. Didn’t he try to hit on Alex one time a while back?
JLG Premium Member over 12 years ago
Alex’s sleeve has been corrected, proving my suspicion that it was actually a mistake by the colorist, not by Trudeau. The colorist wasn’t paying too much attention and mistook Alex’s sleeve in panel three for a bare arm, when it’s really just a tight short.

Groesawu yn ôl, Dylan…. Glad to see that the force which through the green fuse drives the flower is still driving your life also; you had us wondering…
