    It’s wild reading just one comic without any context and expecting a punchline. I guess this probably makes sense if it’s just one exchange in a full story but oh man this barely feels like a comic strip to me right now without context.

      Much of bloom county is this way. There are some strips that stand alone (pear dimples being one), but not so much in the beginning.

          But you knew exactly which strip I meant.

          ETA I just went to revisit this strip, and it turns out it was a Sunday strip (which always stood alone, but a lot of times still tied in with the current story arc.) So this was a really bad example.

          For anyone not familiar with the strip.
