ngl...kinda worried about this one 🧎
i was very excited during class when i suddenly realized this comic translates beautifully into chinese
the explanation here being:
allo? - hello? a l'eau - water?
谁呀?- shei ya? who is it? 水呀?- shui ya? water?
It’s even funnier if you know that in french that type of showerhead is called a “Telephone shower”. ^_^
After I reblogged this I realised that it works in te reo Māori too.
Ko wai tēnei = Who is this but also This is water
Please add to this, I want it to turn out that this works for every language on earth except English.

HECK
The Outbursts of Everett True was a comic strip that ran in papers from 1905 to 1927, wherein the aforementioned Everett True regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude. Men have not only been taking up too much room on public transport for about as long as public transport has existed, but the people around them have been irritated about it for at least a hundred years. The next time someone tries to claim that manspreading is a false phenomenon, please direct them to this strip so that Everett True can correct their misconceptions with an umbrella upside the head.
I have never before heard of Everett True, but if he “regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude,” I have a strong spiritual connection with him.
I fucking love him
i can imagine this guy’s voice very clearly in my head but i couldn’t put a name to it
He also jabs racists in the eye!
I love the justice grandpa of fists
I’m very lucky to own a book that’s a collection of most of these comics (sadly not all of them) and would highly recommend hunting these down if you can. Sorry for the lack of a scanner but phone photos will just have to do.
He was a enjoyable cuss who didn’t care for war mongering.
Especially profitable war mongering and excuses for it!
He certainly didn’t like selfish husbands and fathers!
Politicians who turned on their words once they got theirs weren’t safe.
He said fuck the police!
He absolutely didn’t like people ruining little things for kids.
He stood up for foreigners. Especially those doing their best to communicate with limited second language knowledge.
He was not having any tomfoolery when it came to gun safety and laws. Especially with youth involved.
You had better not abuse a animal with him nearby. He’d right that wrong real quick!
And best of all him and his wife were both prickly cusses together. Relationship goals.
I have a new role model
“justice grandpa of fists”
It’s nice to see a fat dude in a political cartoon that’s NOT being used as shorthand for greed and corruption.
Hes like the personification of motherfucker unlimited
Reblogging this newer version of this thread with so many more strips I haven’t seen…why did this character ever disappear. Where did you go, Everett.
we need him more than ever…
sorry to make a long post longer but I feel like we could all really use some Everett True Beating Up Anti-Maskers content:
He’s a hero, our Everett.
Just found out there were live action Everett True shorts (silent films, though, so the outbursts were largely body language)
Reblogging to always have it to hand. :)

Harley Quinn 30th Anniversary Special #1 - “Siren Soiree” (2022)
written by Paul Dini art by Guillem March & Tomeu Morey
I feel like it’s really important to point out that at the start Harley doesn’t ask “who ate my sandwich”. She asks “who threw out my sandwich”. She knew perfectly well what state it was in and was keeping it in the fridge for psychological warfare (this exact conversation)
Mamo by Sas Milledge. BOOM! BOX, 2022. 9781684158171. Includes #1 - #5. http://www.powells.com/book/-9781684158171?partnerid=34778&p_bt
Jo seeks the help of a witch because magic is going nuts all over Haresden, the fae are misbehaving, and her mother has been cursed. That’s how she meets Orla, who is visiting after her grandmother Mamo’s death. Mamo was the Witch of Haresden, and when she died she didn’t make sure her bones were buried correctly, which is at the heart of most of the town’s magical troubles. Plus her spirit is angry. Now Mamo’s bones need to be buried correctly, and Orla is going to need Jo’s help to do that, to navigate the traps the fae and others have created.
I thought I was done with witchy graphic novels for young people, but this excellent book proved how wrong I was. It’s full of love and friendship, and creates a perfectly understated sense of wonder. My favorite moment was when Jo was having breakfast with her family and we find out her nickname. The irritated trolls are fun, too.
I’ve been cackling about this for like five minutes now
part one of two! this is kind of a filler but even so it took me forever… anyway, hence the uber scribble (and yes that is the same bg as in Arm Restling call me out on it see if I care)
part two will be up tomorrow!
The thing that really hits me about the Marvel universe (in general, both cinematic and comic) is that there’s just so much weird shit happening all the time.
That one scene at the beginning of Black Panther where T’Challa’s just chilling on a branch and the traffickers shine a light on him? If you were a normal human in the Marvel world, the possibilities for that are endless. Is he a superhero? Is he a supervillain? Is that even a suit, like did his mutant power turn him into a black panther? Or is he a just nut job in fancy dress?
That scene where Eddie Brock first sees Venom in the movie, where Venom manifests itself outside of Eddie’s body? He’s so fucking tired. He’s been hearing this weird, low voice that he’s worryingly attracted to and it’s actually an alien symbiote that’s improving his quality of life and helping him take down diet-Elon Musk. You know what? Fine. The girlfriend left him, he lost his job, so he might as well get an alien free-loader to avoid hitting rock bottom and steer his life to full-on weird.
That scene in S1 of Daredevil where Matt tried to get this junior cop to co-operate with him and the cop just fucking throws it back in his face, and then Vladimir won’t even take the best chance he has at revenge for his brother? Honestly can you blame them. Who is this masked dude??? Is he a vigilante? Is he working for Fisk? Or a guy testing out his costume on New York?
That part in infinity War where Stark just says, ‘yea a bad guy’s trying to steal a necklace from a wizard’? That’s… that’s the most succinct description of what was happening. And it wasn’t even the weirdest part, because there was a doughnut shaped spaceship above New York.
Anyway thanks for coming to my TEDtalk. Who the hell knows what’s going on in the Marvel universe. Even if you did have superpowers, it’s just a roll of the goddamn dice who you meet out there. Gwenpool’s the only character that makes any sense.
Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #310 - “Finale” (2018)
written by Chip Zdarsky art by Chip Zdarsky
Please read Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #310. It’s beautiful and funny and heartbreaking and one of the best Spider-Man stories I ever seen.
Clark Kent is not a coward, he just hates Superman. The reason he runs off every time disaster occurs is cause he knows Superman will be there soon and he can’t stand the guy.
Clark Kent has to remove himself from the scene to keep from throwing hands at Superman.
Not Elastigale but this post is still on-brand for Gail. :’)
