Reelin’ and a Rockin’, Rantin’ and A Raven

I got my rant on yesterday, but The Brilliant Mind of Edison Lee

has me thiiiis close to going off on 21st Century Cracker Jack prizes.

Also yesterday I made a scene about the lack of spotting blacks, but today we are here not to bury but praise Patrick McDonnell’s Mutts where “negative space” is the highlight not the default.

For those who missed Mutts title panel this past Sunday it was inspired by the cover of his new book.

Also praiseworthy is the Prince Valiant team.

As Morgan and her minions return to Castle Le Fay we have probably seen the last of her for a while. I have thoroughly enjoyed her guest-starring role. This (apparent) farewell to Morgan by Mark Schultz and Thomas Yeates is a wonderful example, made better by Thomas Scott Roberts‘ coloring.

One of those last panel ravens looks familiar – is Aleta keeping on eye on the green enchantress?

This is getting too sweet, back to ranting:

Man Martin‘s Man Overboard has come onto so much praise here that it is time to balance the scale.

It’s “Frammin’ AT” not Frammin’ IN” the Jim-Jam.

And if Wayno is riffin’ on “Farm-to-Fork” shouldn’t that Bizarro read “Maze-to-Meal” instead?

    It might be a regional thing, but in some places in the country (such as Cleveland, where I live, the term “farm-to-table” is used. In other parts of the country “Farm-to-fork” is used, as the first sentence of this Wikipedia article acknowledges.

    Wayno is in Pittsburgh, so is in that region.
