Haw Haw! Damon, You Lovable Shithead!

It's All Our Yesterdays! Because Boston rocks!

You know, I'm going to back off from the actual strip here to make a simple point. Damon, a young, healthy man in his twenties, is vehemently pro-war. Of course, he can't be bothered to actually go out and serve in the war he's backing--just blindly attack any criticism of it.

So Muir, thinking he's creating a paragon of Republican virtues, creates an asshole, a bully, and a coward with a disgustingly inflated ego. Which is the finest example of his limitations as an artist I can think of.
