I’m probably the only one that doesn’t like Bizarro or Mr. Mixtplkzlkwyzlk (however the f* you spell it). They’re right up there with Batmite and Snarf on my annoy-o-meter.
As for today’s strip, well damn – that’s some mighty fine work up there. I love a sheriff that’s willing to bend the rules. Rules can be stupid. When I was studying for my gov’t job way back in my past life, I learned there was a law on the books that citizens could bring in a dead rat (at least the head) to the town clerk for a nickel. That’s right! It had something to do with the spread of disease. Plus laws are usually written to be open for some interpretation. It must be nice to be on the law side though; you’re bound to get away with the bending.

That panel with the Sheriff by himself, with the clouds behind him . . . I don’t know why, but I find that just a beautiful shot.

Look! It’s Steeven! Hi Steeven!
It seems I like to stock up and read them several at a time to get that graphic novel effect, and I was struck by the clouds and the blue sky on each page. I love how you can isolate a panel on a page, Dave. Your skies are among the most beautiful I’ve ever seen in any comic.

Way to kick ass, like some…super ass-kicking robot, built in a government lab!
Got my Validus today. There is a beer in your future, sir.

I don’t know exactly what “So I don’t care a continental about it.” means but I like it and will working it into conversation. Great job guys!

Am completely enthralled with this story. And that is saying a lot for someone who doesn’t do much reading, even when coloring a comic. Best comic on TWC!
Fer wha’ such nunsense I knows not. Yeehaw! Get me drunk on and go a gunnin’ for a stagecoach! One of my favorite pastimes.

Ah, moral ambiguity. Where would a good western be without it?

I’ve done Bizarro sketches a few times now, and he sure is fun to draw! I mean: He am no fun to draw! Or something like that.
Glad you guys like the clouds, I know it would be easier to just slap some photos of clouds up there, but it feels a bit like cheating.
Nobody mess with Brent’s cat, she’s an airbender!
Get your dead rat heads, right here! Only a nickle!

Mr. McMonkey: Very poetic words of tribute!
Dave: Well said! I love Bizarro, when he is handled right. I prefer him to be an imperfect clone of Superman, as opposed to the “Emporer Joker” character, but I always get excited when he pops up. Looking forward to this particularly nice rendition gracing my desk!

Cat… Avatar! I get it!!!
