Can you give us links that don't require memberships to view? I'd like to see them but I'm not interested in having a yahoo account.
Stop filling dumpsters, as much as you possibly can, and everything will get better.

Just think it through.
It's not hard to do.

Who would that be? And how would that person "handle" it for you?

The one that malfunctioned, like all his Acme products. LOL :mrgreen:


It was a Snow Machine in the screenplay. FlapJax changed it to a sled. Maybe an Acme sled, dunno.

So I guess FlapJax's boss came back because I haven't seen the fourth episode yet.

RE is on an enforced sabbatical for a couple of weeks. But apparently the fourth edition will still be coming out, despite this setback.

I thought the idea was to reach a broader audience?

But hey if all you want to do is use it to take swipes at other posters... but hey it is your talent. If you want to give this thread a big push in the direction of the Hall of Flames that is your business.

Who is the Hitler character?

I must've missed much of this discussion, except the illegal immigrant storyline.

The Hitler-Vulture is indeed Jack.


Thanks, Ludi. You are as sweet as they come :)


Wiscur, I just draw the stuff. I know that is incriminating. The truth is I know most of the folks here less than half as well as RE does. That does not make for very entertaining content and is why I lean on him. I suppose flaming in itself is entertaining after all; how Rush, Hannity, FOX, MSNBC, have made it by all these years. Anyway, I too hope this moves in a broader direction although I thought some folks might get a kick out of being included every once and a while with the bad and the good. I think RE was in a certain mindset as he wrote this one. I'm just trying to share. Don't shoot the illustrator? :(

Not at all. RE is in the business of dividing the world into good and evil and then shooting the evil... I guess I am more interested in muddling through.

Do Hannity and Rush help illuminate and educate or do they entertain through division and simplification (to be polite)? What you draw is 100% your business. I like the ilIustration. I would just hate to see vendetta detract from the originally stated purpose.

Hi flap:

Who is the other carrion-bird with Jack supposed to be...the one with the Castro-like(?) cigar and fatiques?

And...does RE provide you with just the script or does he also verbally sketch out for you the nature of the individual animals and caricatures he wants you to draw?

THANKS!

P.S. FYI, the COC does say "2.1.4 Avoid flaming" .....

We should get another storyline that doesn't end with RE as the vigilante hero. I mean, if this were reality, RE would have been one of the squatters getting runover by a tractor.

The artwork is great flapjax, but just as an fyi, RE doesn't know folks here 1/10th as well as he likes to believe he does... :wink:
