Rock and Roll Part Two

... and so, with Sunday September 25, 2005's Comics section in hand, I go down the list of comics and see what I have here:

#1: Dilbert


Again, the "Yes, I know... Safe placation for the fumes of the bourgeoise for the ultimate goal of societal corporate hegenomy" syndrome. Boss. Clueless. Falls to a garbage bin. Hardey Har Har.

#2: For Better or For Worse

Herein lies the problem: I know that is how surly teenagers are supposed to act; I know that is how dorky fathers are supposed to act; I do not know that this is in actuality how surly teenagers and dorky fathers do in fact act. Thus... it's a bad sitcom

#4: Get Fuzzy

Funny. I like the closing comment.

#5: The Wizard of Id

Curious. Is this a political commentary?

#6: Rose is Rose

So is the first two panel construction, ie: one scene broken into two panels, all that there is to this to make it above average strip-wise? I do not know.

#7: Elderberries
An above average episode. Gnomes are funny, right?

#8: Mutts
An above average episode, and I don't get the queasy feeling I usually do with Mutts this time around. We all relate to acorns, right?
