Vincent Macropod in “Violence Solves Everything”
Reverend MattFor those of you who have not seen, there has been a terrifying new development in Vincent Macropod. I speak, of course, of Vincent Macropod Color Saturdays. On every Saturday, except maybe for some (I don’t like to predict the future), you may now thrill to classic Vincent Macropods, put to glorious color by the amazing Lilawyn. You may also do this thrilling after Saturday. You can thrill to last Saturday’s even now!
Wednesdays, like today, remain as they always were - new cartoons, in glorious black-and-white. Why, here’s one now. It is dedicated to Sean Francis. And it has an annotation.
- Have you noticed that some people like to have their ‘true’ selves suddenly show up in their webcomics? And that sometimes those selves like to berate their audiences? Yeah, I’ve never been too tempted to engage in any part of that. But just in case I should ever be so tempted, well, now it’s impossible - I’m dead. And not Cartoon Baby dead! Dead for true. Well, you know what I mean.

I’m curious how Sean feels about that dedication…

Brilliant! I love it, of course.
Now if only Scott Kurtz would shoot himself for real after showing up to editorialize in one of his cartoons.
I apologize for mentioning Scott Kurtz.

Guffaw! Right through the noggin!
How about webcomics that already have their creators as characters? Can those webcomics successfully berate their audience? If so…success! Placeholder Comics writes itself now.

Killed by his own creation…
I’m sure there’s some deep meaning there. Now only if I could stop the heavy drinking, I might figure it out.

This is fantastic. I’m just beginning to appreciate how much the silent beat at the end is essential to your style of humor.

I like the way the pet (is that a two-headed dog?) wakes up at the sound of the gunshot but immediately goes back to sleep without having moved at all.

I do too, jimbow. In fact, I will choose to believe that only one of the heads wakes up!
