Jim Morin for January 01, 2020

“Someone will set the spark off, and we will all be blown away”.

Hindsight is always 2020. In this case, foresight is 2020.

Maybe that Kim’’s New Year’s present?

There are more than one fuse that can be lit in the world.

Mother Earth won’t miss us. And in ten thousand years you’ll have to dig really deep to find any trace of us.

Trump is lighting the fuse in the Middle East.

Not to worry.. trump knows how to fix that scuffle on the other side.. said so during his campaign and a zillion times since.. And with the Evangelist and thus God on his side.. Nothing to worry about.

Something makes me feel that Jim M. is a little down in the dumps.

Cheer up, Bunky. There isn’t much we can do to change things.

Looks like the Armageddon (and rapture to follow) that so many are looking for. We have representatives in the US government that actually want this!!

I understand that this is Mr. Morin’s last political cartoon. Thank you for your insights, sir, and best of luck. Enjoy your painting.

I dont like trump’s cheating, lieing, stealing and belittling good people. However I 110 % fully support killin the murderous and hateful soleimanic! My only regret is that I didn’t get to pull the trigger myself! You say I spelled his name wrong! I dont think so!

“There will be no one to save when the whole world is a grave” – Barry McGuire

Come on Jim! Give it a rest, let’s have some new toons buddy!!!

“Dear Twitter followers, after a 43 year career of drawing edit cartoons I’ve decided to call it quits & pursue my oil painting. This has been my passion for decades & I’m thrilled to put all my energies into it. Thank you for being such a super audience. Keep the faith.”

Took this from his Twitter page.

Hej Jim, time to color the GOP elephant the Right color…pure White.

change your comic!

JIM! Where for art thou?!…

Learned yesterday (23 January 2020) from Clay Jones that Morin’s stepping away from the drawing board to paint and perhaps occasionally make a graphic comment.

I’ll certainly miss his cartoons. Pointed, unsparing, and humorously drawn. Here’s wishing him lots of joy and dough in his endeavors.

Isn’t it time for a new one?

Go comics “editors” don’t read their own product. Shameful

Thanks, Mr. Morin, for all the past excellent art and commentary. You will be missed…ALL the BEST !

are you back from vacation yet jim morin? time to change your editorial.

still…………? New one anytime now!!!!

Why haven’t we gotten any more drawings since January 1st?

Only two months ago. Hard worker here.

Enjoy your retirement, I will miss you!

We are in MARCH now.

What happened to Jim Morin? It has been more then two months since a new cartoon!

No more new cartoons. Mr.Morin has retired. He has been an political cartoonist for almost 45 years, I think he has earned some rest!

It is DISTURBING how accurate this was, to the point we can tell less than three months in.

What a way to leave the game.

So Jim, have you retired or what?

when is this jan 01 going to change or is it? Something happen to Morin???

Looks like the someone or something already did!

Jim, I know you are retired, but your 1/1/2020 cartoon was prophetic in so many ways. May you be safe. thanks for sharing this wisdom. Sincerely, “That Lady in Florida”

Gocomics, don’t you think it’s time to take this one off? He retired. There won’t be any new ones.

Why is this guy still on the list?

Hit the nail on the head, didn’t he. Sorry he retired.

How did Jim know that the end of the world was coming, way back in Jan?!

Are we ever going to have a new one from Jim Morin?

I took another look at this today, May 1, 2020. This guy’s last cartoon makes him look like the all-time Karnack the Magnificent.

Don’t you think it’s time for a new cartoon now?

I have that record…

Seems he has retiredhttp://bado-badosblog.blogspot.com/2020/01/jim-morin-retires.html

This cartoon jinxed us.

8/8/2020— Unknowingly prophetic.

I am sorry Mr. Morin hasn’t given us any more cartons since January 1. But this one cartoon is prescient, summing up the year far too well. How did you know?

That fuse needs to be right over the Arctic, check out how low the ice cover is on Climate Reanalyzer. Cross your fingers!

But, but I’m just sure that 2021 will be so, so much better. Wait, what? There seems to be a pattern unfolding?

Remember January 1, when all we had to worry about was Trump starting a war with Iran to distract from the impeachment? We were so cute.

I don’t think anyone knew just how prophetic this cartoon was when it was published in January.May 2021 be better.

Did Morin have any idea how prophetic he was? Since he hasn’t posted anything since then, I’m guessing he managed to hitch a ride off this planet with the dolphins.

No need to update the year

Sad that this one still applies today.

Hey Jim don’t you think it’s high time for a new comic??

Still relevant 13 months later. Saw a strip a couple of days ago where a guy came out of a coma after a year. He said the last thing he remembered was the Chiefs were in the Super Bowl, Trump was being impeached, and a virus had broken out. The nurse told him to go back to sleep. Wonder why the editors don’t remove inactive strips?

Just not real …. the world and people will be hear much longer than any of us will live.

GoComics has cut many a good comic this past year, and this one hasn’t been updated in over a year. I hope Mr. Morin isn’t still being paid by GoComics.

How long is this thing going to run?

I look at this every 5 – 6 months or so. Gary Markstein’s stuff is getting old too. Time for some major editing on what strips are posted in “Need to Go” Comics.

Remove the cable news media and we’d be fine. Usual mix of good life with crime, wars, civil unrest, etc. But we’d be fine and not feel the world is about to blow up. Relax, folks. Really.

Morin retired in January 2020.

Why is this still here since Mr. Morin hasn’t put anything in for a year and a half?!?

When is a new comic coming???

2020 it was lit and 2021 it is still burning!!! I hope for a change…..

‘The Trump monkeys were really running the show’:

DOJ roiled by Trump’s Big Lie

Joyce Vance, former U.S. attorney, talks about the extent to which Donald Trump’s lies about the 2020 election penetrated the Department of Justice and why a criminal investigation of what is increasingly looking like a coordinated effort to overturn the election is warranted.

Fuse has burned down quite a ways now.

So nice that this is a daily strip.

Don’t you think it’s high time for a new comic, Jim?

Don’t you think after all this time that’s we’re long overdue for a new comic??

Wow! The first New Year comic of 2022. Klever plan Jim!

This strip just keeps on giving.

When are we getting a new comic??

Why is this spot still here?

Why are these dead comics still taking up space???

From my long list of world ending predictions. GLOBAL WARMING TO WIPE NATIONS “OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH” IF CLIMATE CHANGE NOT ADDRESSED BY YEAR 2000In 1989, the Associated Press relayed a warning from a U.N. official:“A senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000.”The official was Noel Brown, director of the New York office of the U.N. Environment Program, who added: "Shifting climate patterns would bring back 1930s Dust Bowl conditions to Canadian and U.S. wheatlands.” Instead, U.S. and global farm production rose, and more than 1 billion people worldwide rose out of extreme poverty due to economic growth. No nations were “wiped off the face of the Earth” as of 2019.

The same U.N. official who predicted the loss of entire nations by the year 2000 also claimed: "the most conservative scientific estimate [is] that the Earth’s temperature will rise 1 to 7 degrees in the next 30 years.”But looking back from 2019, the temperature rose about half of a degree Celsius since 1989, according to NASA.

This comic might as well be removed

why don’t you all read comics marked "updated today "?

If we only knew how true that would be!?!

I just took the Go Comics survey. There were no questions about what irritates you about Go Comics, or any questions about what I think about leaving strips online that have ceased in existence. This has been gone for years. Take it down. And Signe, and the rest who have retired.

How long is this comic going to keep running?? It’s been well over a year! If Jim doesn’t want to draw anymore, he should let another artist step in!

This is now 3 years old. Drawn prior to the pandemic and Ukraine … where are we now?

And check out this one … https://www.gocomics.com/reallifeadventures/2023/01/01?ct=v&cti=1372567

In reality the fuse is too long.

Dear Earth, Sorry, our bad. Sincerely, Humans

Why is this guy still here?

That fuse should be half as long.

That fuse needs to be shorter by now Jim.

Move on Morin!

Mr. Morin correctly predicted the future.

That fuse needs to be much shorter. . .

GoComics….Start removing cartoons with no content in 4 years please.

Did the cartoonist get blown up?

It was a wild one!
