Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for March 29, 2012
Transcript:
Bucky: this time I saw one, I saw a grim reaper out in the hall! Satchel: No, no, the bulb is out, it's just spooky! The same guy kissing a baby wouldn't seem so scary! It's contexty! You know what would chill you out? If you saw a grim reaper on an air vent, like marylin monroe! He'd be tryin' to keep his robe down, see, but he couldn't put his reaper thingy down, so he was all "ooh la la!" and shown' a little pelvis! Ha ha! Context!

Sometimes… when everything is all quiet and contexty… Satchel’s words can’t quite drown out the light wind blowing gently through his head and whistling out his ears…

Death as Marilyn Monroe—I didn’t even understand it the first time I read it, it was so bizarre.
But now I see—that is pure genius…

@SusanSunshineI love your comments. I always hope you and/or Dogsniff will have something to say. Between the two of you, the comments are just as fun as the actual comic. Thanks.

I thought Satchel was fixed, but looks like he’s got the 7 year itch.

Most geniuses talk above the common man and are difficult to understand.

Satch: please never strike that pose again. thanks.

Hah! After my nitpick yesterday about the conflict between the shadow and the perceived lighting (actually, the colorization) in the hallway, Satch tells us the bulb’s burnt out! But I assumed that Darby does the strips in black and white, and that someone else colorized them for this web site. My assumption was based on a recollection from a couple years ago that another artist did/does the same, though I don’t remember if that was here on GoComics, or That Other Site That Merged With It.
