ok that's it for 2006!! on that eggy note, i'll start next time with 2007
just realized that percival & pooch (whom I've p much completely ignored up til now cuz they're p innocuous) are supposed to be owned by Tatsuya? kind of a "hi i'm cartoonist jon arbuckle and this is my cat garfield" situation
Lil' Evil here is a character whose whole bit is that he wants everyone to think he's scary & evil but no one takes him seriously, so i think this is supposed to be commentary on the rampant islamophobia of the Bush years. I'm not sure this really works.
The Secret Sisterhood of Spooky Shit, a bridge story between The Matriarchy and the Sisterhood. (this one also includes a quick Matrix reference, since that's one of Tatsuya's ironically enduring obessions)
The US government deciding who deserves $600
i appreciate this gag
this is relatable right
Uh oh!!!!! what crime did this terf dragon commit to go to jail? Reply with your best guess
realizing i made this dumb comic in 2019 about a fake law banning trans women from telling jokes because of their biological advantage and it's probably gonna be real in the next year 🙃
so this sort of thing was pretty par for the course in 2000 (South Park was just then making racism COOL again after all) but still kinda surprised to see so much. i only remembered these early strips being all 'how to draw kanji' not THIS
seems like kind of a big indictment of the entire film medium that no one's ever made a horror movie set against the backdrop of a 1920s halloween
2004, baby!!!!!! Gettin' political!!!!!!!!!
