This comic should not have the name "Funky Winkerbean"

...

OVER HERE FUNKY!

dude, wtf.

why do you fuckers insist on fucking with 50's camp? You turn Acrhie into a bunch of raging sex monsters, fred flinstone in a vietnam vet, Garfield into daedist lunacy and now this..

I don't know what you mean.

Why do people insist on shitting on the greatest period of american history? What is it about our Golden Age that attracts you vultures?

Jealousy? Vengeance?

Funky Winkerbean has been like this for decades, man. I want to say it was spiraling out of control for a long time, but it really became apparent with the arc where that dude's wife dies of cancer.

Is the creator insane or something? Because I heard he takes this completely seriously and gets mad if you laugh at the misery porn.

Batiuk did that to himself. The early Winkerbean strips are actually pretty chill. Also it started in the 70s.

Also also, there's nothing wrong with taking relics from another era and looking at them through a different lens. Flintstones was fucking good. Not great, but a damn sight better than sitting through either of the live action properties.

What the hell are you talking about?

>fred flinstone in a vietnam vet,
He allways was

>writer/artist clearly has a mental breakdown and turns a goofy high school comic into a gaze at pure nihilism
>newspapers run it without noticing

>>writer/artist clearly has a mental breakdown and turns a goofy high school comic into a gaze at pure nihilism

Actually here's a better question:

Decades of Funky Winkerbean vs all of Dumbing of Age, which is better?

I'm just wondering why this guy's females look like transsexuals

Syndicate editors do not fucking care at this point. They're well aware that there's no real talent left in newspaper cartooning, newspapers are on their way out the door, and anybody who still reads the funnies only does so out of inertia. How do you think shit like Six Chix gets run every day of every week?

Fred Flintstone was literally always a veteran

the comic just made it more explicit

imagine being nostalgic for something you didn't live through

...

Funky, no question. We might laugh at Funky, but it's still coherent and is a craft of love. DOA is garbage and should be a ban-worthy offense for posting, like Sinfest was.

Most of us lived through afganistan user.

pretty sure that user is not referring to Afghanistan as the greatest period of american history

unless he's a weirdo

Wouldn't be the dumbest thing I have seen on Sup Forums.

Don't you guys yearn for the good ol' days after 9/11?

At least Winkerbean hasn't retold the same story 3 times already in just a slightly different way. DoA I would have some respect for it it wasn't centered around the exact same cast as the last three comics. And hell, have the other two comics actually had a real ending or did they just end?

YOU'RE FUCKING INSANE!

...

did his L have a stroke or something

ooooh shit
this used to be a household meme with my sister and I

>have the other two comics actually had a real ending or did they just end?
It's Walky! did have an ending... then Willis made a (much shorter) sequel that he put behind a paywall. Shortpacked just ripped its ending off Neon Genesis Evangelion, only they did it with The Soggies from those old Captain Crunch commercials.

I wish I was making all that up.
