Greatest Cartoon Strip Ever?

[Fyodor]

I did a very funny post about Shuggie and Duggie, but, presumably because I hit "Post" about the same time as Peter, it didn't get through and now will never see the light of day .. but wait, methinks I hear a roar of cyber laughter surging over Saturn.

...a very funny post about Shuggie and Duggie...

Now there's a novelty!

Vult, I love Asterix too (I did a little Latin at school). It's magnificent on all counts, but I have a soft spot for the artwork in particular. Simply stunning!

You're right about Mince...and so is Peepsie. You accuse one of the all-time greats, and most-loved of cartoonists of producing tedium on a board heavily populated by cartoonists and cartoon enthusiasts at your peril. But for the record, I thought Peepsie's lentil comparison was uncalled for. Even if I did laugh.

I have not made any comments about Peanuts. My comments were about my experiences with Peanuts. There is a difference, lentil brain.

My apologies to lentils everywhere.

This is just to annoy Roger (the second half of the clip).

My apologies. I should have written, "You accuse one of the all-time greats, and most-loved of cartoonists of producing stuff that bores the frilly pink pants off you, on a board heavily populated by cartoonists and cartoon enthusiasts, at your peril."

I accept that what you wrote says more about you than Charles M. Schulz, and in that light, I rescind my earlier remark about Peepsie's lentil comparison, with due apologies to both Peepmaster and all leguminous pulses everywhere.

Once again, you make assumptions: who said they were frilly?

[Tarquin Thunderthighs lll]

Educated guess.

[Mince]

More like lucky guess.

[Vulture]

More like lucky guess.

What's the odds on a 'luck guess' guessing they were frilly and pink?

I stand by my 'educated guess' claim, whilst thanking Mince for the confirmation.

You were afeard for your life? Belay there, and I'll flay the hide of any man jack who takes the mick out of yer grammar, wench, aharr.

I've used the word afeard since watching the movie The Little Kidnappers

Why do you WANT to annoy me?
The clip you posted is very funny. I presume you are suggesting that I was fishing for compliments in my original question. Given that I asked for my work NOT to be considered, I suppose you've mildly annoyed me. Nah. Not really.

[Roger Kettle]

Goodness, Malc. I thought I was the only one who liked Asterix. I have all the books but everyone I know thinks they're rubbish. The main problem may be that they're not willing to read them with a Latin/English dictionary to hand!

I've never thought of them as a cartoon strip - possibly because they're 'whole' books.

I've also got every Asterix book. Sheer genius and I love them to bits.
