Clem Twang had mixed reviews on GoComics.com. Some people got fed up with him quickly, while others enjoyed trying to untangle his monologues.
Here we go again.

I grew up in a little church. The church bulletin would have benefitted from a few good adventure stories.
As it was, it was all “Invocation” and “Scripture reading” and “Passing the plate” and “Sermon” and “Benediction”. Nowhere in there did it say anything about “Once time, we were in the church bus, and I mean it was hot, and we were tired, and there was this big crowd off to the side of the highway. It looked like a carnival or something, so we thought…”
I nodded off five minutes into either the sermons or the interminable prayers by one of the more florid and fervid deacons… a nice adventure tale would have kept me up a little longer.
When I first conceived of Chase R. Ambule, I assumed he was not a good lawyer.
I figured he’d never get to court, always hoping to make a big score on some random settlement. In other words, a lawyer like you see in cheap TV ads.
I haven’t changed my mind about it.
Zombies.
I tried to think of something new to say about zombies.
I think everything has been said. This cartoon is the capstone.
Zombies.
Good people won’t break a commandment.
Great people will break one to save you.
If you can’t think of anyone in your group of friends and acquaintances who incites the others to do silly things
… you need to question whether it’s YOU who’s the inciter.
There’s always one in every crowd.
Welcome back, please, Mr. Chase Ambule. He’s a jerk, but he’s our jerk. I guess.
Maybe we could trade him in on a better grade of jerk.
So the Nutleys have started their list of “how to live outside instead of die inside”.
Anyone want to suggest other things that they might have gleaned from a day at The OutdoorFest?
All the stuff that worries people about statues…
Somebody had to spend a lot of time carving those things.
Anatomically correct statues of nudes or animals that now make people giggle and blush… did they make the people who spent hours and hours shaping various stone erogenous zones laugh too?
Not if their laughter was going to make a chisel slip and crack off something that was going to be conspicuous by its absence, I bet. Try explaining THAT to the boss. “We had to start over, ’cause, well… uh…”
Seems to me that Orc costumes would turn up at conventions more often.
I mean, sure, they play their part in the movie ‘Paul’, but I don’t usually see Orcs in non-movie real-life conventions.
You could do various kinds… the kind that used to be painted by the Hildebrandt brothers for all those Tolkien calendars, or Frazetta type paintings, or the kind from the Rankin-Bass TV shows, or the ones from the Ralph Bakshi Lord Of The Rings movie. Or you could do the kinds of Orcs that the various toy soldier companies used to make out of lead and sell to all of us who liked to get eyestrain while painting tiny, tiny Orcs. Or you could do the Peter Jackson movie Orcs if you wanted to. Any way you choose to do them, Orcs. Man, what a costume.
