      Oh wow! I’m curious what you’ve found. I just stumbled upon them recently while searching for old comics, and they’ve been pretty entertaining.

    This one feels different. That last panel looks like something from Alan Moore

      Yeah, it’s the first I’ve come across where the violence is just implied.

      Thank god we live in a world where you don’t see female presenting ankles willy nilly. That would be pure insanity.

    that’s what you get for looking at a woman’s ankles, smiling quietly to yourself, and saying nothing. that asshole really got what was coming to him

    EDIT: didn’t notice he bumped into everett bc he was busy looking at her. still tho

    I honestly don’t get the implication… For a second there I thought he like shot off into space but then where’s the woman and the other guy? I’m pretty confused

      The man was staring at the woman’s scandalously bare ankle and accidentally ran into Everett True. The cracked pavement and loose hat on the ground are the aftermath of Mr. True’s reaction.

        Thanks! I was confused too. I thought maybe the woman blew the man away.

          Maybe the first pic is her firing her secret ankle laser.
