I can’t help but think that’s an unhealthy shade of green.
Is he a zombie like the headliner?
Between the green skin and the torn clothing, I was sure this was going to be a comic about the Incredible Hulk.
Was trying to go for a Palestine-like olive skin tone, but there’s no conclusive evidence to say that John the Baptist wasn’t the Incredible Hulk.
I’m curious: what translation is that? I don’t think I’ve ever encountered a version of the Bible, including the King James, that uses the word “latchet.”
KJV - Mark 1 v 7
I’m not telling you to stop, but I’m curious why you keep going. I can’t find you funny. You’re dry, bland, and you have no niche. I was going to rage, and be inflammatory, but I can’t help but think that maybe you’ll read this if I articulate myself a little bit.
Because there are other people who do find it funny and check every day for a 3-days-a-week comic.
I check about five times a day… Either I have a bad memory, I REALLY like lukesurl.com, or I procrastinate a lot.
Wait, what was this comment about, again?
I find Luke funny. When he doesn’t fly straight over my head.
It’s my private jet and I can do whatever I like with it! Would you prefer I flew it *into* yer cranium mister?
I find many of his comics funny. Some of the puns are too plain, and some reference things I don’t know (like today’s), but there are still plenty of good ones. Three of my favorites are comics 212 (/archives/1062), 306 (/archives/1325), and 318 (/archives/1389). Comic 212 is a connection I hadn’t thought of, and I find amusing the idea of me doing one experiment on rocket and then telling everyone I’m a rocket scientist. Comic 306 is just a good pun, made more solid by the mentioned “initiative” being the initiative to do something involving the normal use of the phrase. Comic 318 is funny because it points out that Team Rocket (Pokémon anime reference, if you didn’t know) is a company, not just villains with a funny speech, and invites the reader to consider them as such. It is also impressive how it manages to make everything, even the previous and next slide, sound corporate while still saying the same thing as the speech. Of course, even though those really are the elements of those comics I like, it’s hard to say that all comics with those properties are objectively funny – it’s hard to analyze humor. So if you don’t like those three comics, I wouldn’t really understand why, but I can’t say you’re wrong.
Ooh, a troll! How cute.
