   I thought sure that the last panel would contain the word ‘where’…..

   Flight Suit said, 18 days ago

   Don’t forget “when” and “how!”

   Fee Fi’s lookin’ kinda like the Iron Giant or Ultraman or something.

   In the first panel, it looks like Fee Fi is giving Mr Pops a wet willie with his thumb.

   Fe fi fo fum
   This strip is really dumb
   Be it the writing
   Or be it the art
   It has the stench of a juicy…
   Three more panels we see today
   Three that does our trust betray
   Malformed hands, a broken pinky
   The art today is particularly stinky
   The dialog gives us a great big pain
   Seems all our hopes were in vain
   The pig on wheels is truly a sight
   It gives evil clowns an awful fright
   It has a shake and has a shimmy
   That’s cause it’s sporting a Hemi
   Meanwhile back a the scene of the action
   Mr. Pops is a little slow with his reaction
   Caught in the clutches of the giants iron grip
   He had a feeling he was going to
   Such a sad ending to his evil career
   He had the misfortune to have to appear
   Here in this disaster of which it is said
   Would be better for all if it were dead

    This is starting to remind me of that James Bond movie ‘Octopussy’, when James Bond is dressed like a clown and he uses a circus troupe to defeat the international terrorists, making the once lauded double-oh 7 look like an utter twat in clown makeup while the acrobats and elephants do all the work.

    I wonder if Ian Flemming’s estate could sue Locher for copywright infringement here

    Oh boy! My friend Kamio just shared with me the following link, which is NSFW (not safe for work), due to the constant swearing:

    http://screwattack.com/AVGN/2008/DickTracy

    Notice how every one of this guy’s complaints about Dick Tracy the video-game perfectly mirror all of your complaints about Dick Tracy the comic strip! From the inane premise to the shoddy police work to the endless, excruciating monotony, to the bizarre artwork, complete with characters whose appearances mysteriously change from one moment to the next, to the continuity errors, it’s all there!

    The game was officially based on the Warren Beatty movie, but it sure seems to me like it really brings the current comic strip to life.

    If a tepid, frustrating, endless living death can be thought of as life, that is.

    It almost makes you wanna check and see if Locher and Brozman were the lead programmers!

    Does Fee Fi stop bullets too?

    LudwigVonDrake said, 18 days ago

    ^ No.

    The artwork is so poor. Does anyone look at this stuff before it’s published?

14. 

    avatarjk137 said, 18 days ago

    As usual, the artwork is piss-poor, and it’s not intellectual, but today we get to see a circus giant lift a clown into the air by his neckless neck (?) and hold him up in what is clearly preparation for a professional wrestling move. If Pops gets a backbreaker performed on him before he’s thrown into the tiger cage to be eaten, some of Locher’s sins must be forgiven.

    Of course, I’m sure he can screw even this up.

    I guess Mr. Pops emptied his gun. If he hasn’t, he might save a few shots for when he lands.

    Hey, Fee Fi, can u help me deal with annoying troll of a neighbour I have?

    nighthawks said, 18 days ago

    Elxia, any similarity between the movie ‘octopussy’ and the Ian Fleming short story is purely coincidental

    JPBecker said, 18 days ago

    Who wants to bet we will be treated to another whole week of this stinker? Odds are we will still be seeing Mr. Pops and crew next week at this time.

    Joe Allen Doty said, 18 days ago

    Who, what, when, where, why?

    Jim Brozman, the strip’s artist, needs to either be replaced or have someone do quality control and tell him to consistently draw this strip.

    But, there are some popular comic strips which look they were drawn by children with no art training whatsoever.

    nighthawks comment reminds me of fellow students in a college art class which I took as an undergraduate.

    They told one student that what she drew had been done before. But, the art instructor told them that if she had never seen that done before, it was original art in her case.

    Hmmmmm,,,Sydney & Matthew go silent around the same time. Think they went to Joe’ Doty’s Dude ranch together?
    Some quality bonding time? Or is this a job for CSI?

    Do not despair, jtpozenel, we’re just months before it ends…

    Mr. Pops’ so frightened that he forgot about the gun.

    Looking back, I think they’re going to regret installing that escalator to the top of the tiger cage…

    I wondered how everyone was getting up there!

    Araldite said, 17 days ago

    Why is everybody focused on Pops when Barb Ells is the murderer still wandering about with a gun?? Locher has cleverly shifted everyone’s focus away from the real culprit.

    Thank you, VistaBill!

    Only a cyber troll would call someone an idiot in an discussion forum.

    By the way, I have NEVER been on a dude ranch.

    But, I have been on a real ranch. I didn’t work there; but, we lived on a neighboring farm.

    fishbulb said, 17 days ago

    The clown would have been shot when he pulled out his gun. The cops would have opened fire. He would qualify as an elevator counter weight. The story would have ended there. But we are in the Locher Zone. So the complete lack of reality or logic drags on.

    I’m still here, Bassmanbob.

    A daily strip (which I write and draw), a thrice weekly strip (which I draw and help plot), plus two other upcoming projects are keeping WAY busy.

    Plus I still have a day job!

    You’re welcome, FlightSuit.

    “Pig on Wheels may not be legal in states which prohibit the operation of cannons on public roads.”

    Darn! That would spoil the fun!
