oh ha ha! it’s SO freaking hilarious!—-especially when the dude screams in agony as the flames lick at his skin and start to melt it….doncha just love to seepeople burn to death screaming in agony.
Amazing the number of commenters who don’t find today’s strip very peasant, and are getting hot under the collar. Perhaps they need to cool down and leaf for a while?
I hearby declare the Wizard of Id section of Go Comics a SAFE SPACE. Henceforth no cartoon which can in ANY way be deemed offensive shall be published. Penalty for said publication will be to be burned at the stake.
This type of “humour” has a past in the Kingdom of Id. I remember when Spook was made into a Christmas wreath some years ago. Many did not find that funny either.
Read the book “Foxx’s Book of Martyrs”. I read it on-line years ago. Not looked lately to see if it’s still up or not. The things they really did to people back then will make this not funny. Personally I come to the comics for some escape and a good laugh not something like this.
Hey, dear creator of this comic strip. Don’t mind the haters. The Fink always was a cruel tyrant. If delicate snowflakes don’t like it, let them go read pony puff princess or something.
I am not one to shy away from dark humor, so maybe it’s the state of the world now that makes me feel ready to cry upon reading this today. I know that after days of real-life horrors in the news, this is too much. I was looking for a smiley moment.

There is no humor here. Just the same kind of viciousness we see ‘inside the Beltway’…

Well don’t for get that the original team passed on in 2007. This is the work of the Next Generation.

Almost as good as cooking it over bacon. But the peasant should have been cleaned first — I’m getting a little taste of burnt hair in my marshmallows.

I have about 15 to 20 core comics I like, and another 10 or so get shuffled in and out. This one belongs to the latter group. Time to start shuffling.

Aye VALKA,spot on! And there we have just summed up the King of Id completely.

Do not like today’s strip at all! Years ago, this would have been good, but no longer!
Egrayjames over 6 years ago
I certainly don’t care to see the other five things. I agree with Valka.

You really don’t know the difference?
Wile E. Coyote would hurt himself during his attempts to kill the Roadrunner.
I.e. Instant Karma.
This is a (presumed) innocent peasant apparently being put to death for the amusement of the overlord King.
I.e. Punching Down ‘humor’.
Not understanding the difference may be a sign of Psychopathy, Sociopathy, or Republicanism.

No trace of humor, esp the day after Las Vegas. Parker and Hart deserve to be ripped on this. I just hope they learned….

That’s pretty sick. I dont’ think I’ve ever seen this type of “humour” in this strip.
