Sherman's Strip For The Day

That Hawthorne sure is a mover and shaker.

Quote :

HAWTHORN has signed a multi-label recording contract with Sullen Records and Intense Millennium Records.

Today's (1/23) strip is hilarious. I love that drawing of Hawthorne in the second frame.

Yeah, 1/23 is the best in awhile.

The new one (2/3/11 I assume) is hilarious. Megan is going to eat her guest on KRAB radio.

It's on a roll with this radio schtick.

I'm really enjoying Sherman's Lagoon, I've been reading the strips from the beginning thanks to you guys.

This new Tikileaks theme is hilarious but I wish he'd finish off his ideas.

What ever happened to KRAB radio?

He does tend to drop a storyline right in the middle.

Keebler Oaf!

I liked the 2/3 "punchline".

"Crab wins Heisman."

2/5 is hilarious. Getting beat up by dinner.

One of the many battles between Serman and The Giant Squid. Of course Giant Squid always kicks his a$$.

I sort of feel for Sherman, he's the butt of everything. But I guess that makes if funny. I used to feel sorry for Opus too.

I feel more sorry for Fillmore. Poor guy can't even get a date let alone start a relationship. He actually met his equal in female form but even she rejected him.

Hawthorne is my favorite.

He's a conniving, entrepeneurial Heisman winner!

That says a lot about you.

OK, a little help with the characters. Who's Carl? (2/eight)

Generic character. You know the major players (except maybe Bob The Bottom Dweller), so almost all other characters exist just to make the lagoon population seem bigger than just the regulars.

2/11 is a classic. Does your rear end ever see the light of day?

2/12 Regatta does sound like pasta!

I would find this one funnier if the "Tikileaks" idea had been wrapped up. This guy seems to jump from theme to theme without ever bringing closure to any of his previous themes.

If you're going to have a themed strip, I think you should at least close your story arcs.

I think purpsely (sic) he's not closing these up, that way he can come back to them.

Good point. If he returns to the Tikileaks idea somewhere down the road, he'll become my favorite comic strip author. I find that idea to be a stretch but you are much more familiar with this guy than I am. If he resurrects an idea like that when it's more appropriate, that's freakin' brilliant.

Well, the K.R.A.B. radio one from a few weeks ago was revisited from an older story. Another reason could be that he ran out of jokes. A lot of cartoonists will have some good jokes on a subject but use them up before reaching a conclusion.
