Herb and Jamaal by Stephen Bentley for September 21, 2012

1. Not funny; 2. This is the worst I’ve seen out of Herb since reading this strip, given how many of his family talk negatively about him.

Hasn’t this one run before?

So does he hit every black person that uses the prohibited word?

Pathetic, considering the “N” sound in the two words aren’t identical.

Wow. Really throwing the race card in here.

the artist, and i use that term loosely, is a racist n@%@bor

This seems out of character for him, true, but I think it’s a valid metaphor for how out of control “The Race Card” has been used these days.

I have been reading this strip for a long time, and I have never seen it stoop to such low means to get a laugh. Disgusting. He is setting a bad example with this strip. I don’t know if I want to read it any longer.

Something tells me Herb isn’t going to get a good tip this time.

No…not funny at all and far beneath what this strip typically presents.

I look on people as people and how they treat me, not the color of their skin! One of my best friends is BLACK, yes BLACK, she absolutely despises the term Afro American. And with all the POLITICALLY CORRECT garbage these days, who knows what is the proper term.

Sheesh — don’t go near him if your name is Nancy or Norman.
