About Prickly City
A small town in the American Southwest... everything in the desert is designed to prick you, wound you or eat you. What better metaphor for 21st century Earth? Prickly City is a comic strip about the friendship between Winslow, a coyote pup, and Carmen, a straight and narrow kind of kid. Prickly City offers a conservative perspective on political and social events within an ongoing storyline. As Carmen might say, "We may not be correct but we will always be right."
Their high jinks provide endless laughs as Winslow gets into trouble and Carmen follows. Join Carmen and Winslow for their adventures in the desert!

I don’t either…and by that, I mean La Cucaracha. Stopped reading that comic after they started praising the insurrectionists of the EZLN.
And yes, I’m a Mexican.

Why didn’t Charlie Brown and Snoopy make an appearance in the Prickly City world?

I thought Carmen was African-American…

This is a crossover I’d never expect. Yes Carmen is a conservative Hispanic but hopefully she’ll learn a thing or 2 from our friends at La Cucaracha.

@dapperdan61 so why is it Carmen that has to learn from La Cucaracha and not the other way around?
The J.A.M. said, almost 2 years ago
Because La Cucaracha is a bleeding heart liberal and they don’t WANT to learn anything from conservatives.
Another reason why I dropped that strip.

La Cucaracha is funny. Prickly City is… Less so. So that’s what I’d hope Scott takes away from a meeting with Lalo.
And hey! No drones! Yay!

@The J.A.M.
The Zapatista Army of National Liberation (Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional, EZLN) often referred to as the Zapatistas is a revolutionary leftist group based in Chiapas, the southernmost state of Mexico.

Seems to me they gave some hope for you after so many of your presidential elections and been stolen. And they don’t kill or kidnap anyone. Now if you could just translate it into open political action that isn’t corrupted.
