It's that spooky time of year again!

  • WayLazy

    What bullshit. If you're doing a weekly strip, a filler panel - with clip art no less - is worse than skipping a week. What the hell - has Lay entirely lost it?

  • Was she busy sewing her costume?

    Maybe that wacky, out-of-kilter humor of hers failed her in the season when the rest of us get funny.

  • Phoned it in

    It's better not to run a comic, than to run a doodle like this.

    Most weeks, I enjoy Carol's work. Some weeks, I understand it. This week, she shouldn't have bothered.

  • I'm a Salon reader

    And I demand to be spoon fed the same political claptrap day after day after day.

  • Was this the tattoo on Opus' ass?

    Cause if so, then it was pretty funny.

  • Dear Carol Lay

    I have never met you, know nothing about you or your life, and have only the faintest idea (based on your own drawings) of what you even look like, but I still feel compelled to devote my energies towards holding you in the utmost contempt based on a cartoon you drew, which should have been more interesting to me, even if your mother died or something, which for all I know could be the reason for your having drawn a simple doodle this week rather than skip it altogether and leave us with nothing.

    In conclusion, I'm a complete jerk and I don't deserve any cartoons at all.

    Yours sincerely,

    Pompous McTypeanwine.
