And Then Skye Was A Zombie.

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Liane the Wayfarer.

You know, every now and then Muir draws a panel that demonstrates that, no, his skills as an artist aren't improving at all--at best, he's managed to figure out how to avoid drawings that showcase his many, many weaknesses as an artist.

Like that mind-bendingly awful last picture of Skye, who is apparently going full Morlock.

And The Sitcom From Hell Goes On...

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because a gnome named Grimble Gromble.

Asking a guy old enough to be your father for advice on dating his father.

Didn't they do this story on My Name is Earl once?

The Spirit Of Bad Seventies Sitcoms Lives On...

It's the Day's Day of Days!  If I had a heart I could love you.

Three's Company had more dignity in its lowest moments.

Plus John Ritter, who was thoroughly underrated as a physical comedian for much of his career.

"I Mean, Your Mother's Already Dating Your Best Friend's Dad..."

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because peppermint white hot chocolate.

You know, the worst part for me, I like that show, the occasionally somewhat distasteful Cold War politics in it aside.

Though you had to feel for Barney--being the black guy in a team of covert agents that kept going to Eastern European Ruritanias had to be tough, even if he did have his elite technical and mad ninja skills to fall back on. 

Yes, I am just talking about Mission: Impossible in these comments. Can you blame me?  It was a fun show.

"How Dare He Ignore The Head Of A Foreign State Who Has Repeatedly Tried To Undermine Him!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because the story of my life.

More foreign policy genius from Muir's fictitious foreigners.

Who, remember, thought moving to the Ukraine during Maidan was a good idea.

"Hee, Hee, Hee. They Clearly Deserved It, Because They Are Incoveniencing Our Heroes!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because wholeheartedly.

...From the culture that romanticizes Ruby Ridge and Waco.

But not the Black Panthers, for some inexplicable reason...

Saturday, January 24, 2015

"Hee-Hee! Corrupt Racist Southern Sheriffs Are The Best!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because they Herman's Hermits, not Herman and the Hermits.  Which is to say, Herman apparently owns the Hermits.

I'm just waiting for someone to state that what they've got here is a failure to communicate.

Tuesday, January 20, 2015

"Black Helicopters! Soon, They Will Storm The Compound!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because zebra.

Remember when I used to JOKE about the inevitable compound move?

Yeah. This is going to be... unpleasant.

Monday, January 19, 2015

"How About 'Look, Nekkid Chick'?"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because orange collar.

Muir is no more capable of producing a picture of a healthy relationship than he is of producing a picture of genuinely attractive woman.

Friday, January 16, 2015

Ummm... Wha...?

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because moo-cow.

So, Chingis Khan, mass murderer, and empire builder is the best exemplar of Western manhood.

Despite being... you know... a Mongolian.

Thursday, January 15, 2015

"Yeah! This Is Totally What's Happening!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Nausea, by Sartre.

This is sort of like all the MacArthur fanboys back in the 50s who wouldn't admit their hero had fucked things up big time.

Wednesday, January 14, 2015

"We's Da Oppressed One, And Now Youse Knows Wese Was Right All Along!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because the Defenders of the Universe.  Or one, weirdass planet, really, but who wants to get technical?

Ahh, more chest-thumping and nonsense as Muir sets up shabby strong men to bowl over.

And as usual manages to somehow not do it...

Tuesday, January 13, 2015

"Yep. Totally Like A Crusader! Not That I'm Saying Anything!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because blue fu dog.

Oddly enough, Zed's garb looks to be a Templar uniform.

The Templars were knights of the Church sworn to celibacy.  Who were disbanded amongst (admittedly fabricated) charges of devil-worship and sodomy.

Monday, January 12, 2015

"My Expertise Is Vast, So I Do Constantly Tell Myself!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because golem.

Well, it's always fun when Muir goes off on one these tangents wherein he winds up showing that what he doesn't know about foreign politics... is foreign politics.

Friday, January 9, 2015

"Deviance From The True Party Is Evil!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Lenny Bruce is not afraid.

And remember the days when Jan wasn't a hard right Republican?

Thursday, January 8, 2015

"Behold My Incwedible Couwage!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because he's our hero.

The sad thing about cowardly asshole fights is that good decent people tend to be the collateral damage...

Wednesday, January 7, 2015

"His Less-Than-Perfect Adherance To Our Ideals Show He Is A Traitor!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because I don't think she knows I know.

And this is why I doubt this new Congress is going to be that different from the last one...  the circular firing squads have remained firmly in place...

Tuesday, January 6, 2015

"Yep! The Mere Fact That The Government Uses Acronyms Is Funny!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Liverpool.

Muir is so crap at comedy, he can't make the Alphabet Soup funny.

That says something right there.

Monday, January 5, 2015

"And That's Why They Turn Against Us!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because bling-blang.

Muir has found a way to unite the awful "Sitcom from Hell" strips with the horrifying "Political Blather" strips into one terrifyingly incompetent whole.

Heaven help us all.

Sunday, January 4, 2015

"See! This Is CLEARLY Awful!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because Valli with an 'i'.

...

Muir should stop trying to make things sexy.  It just doesn't work.

Saturday, January 3, 2015

Somehow, I Think Zed's Trips Are Very, Very Short...

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because West End Blues.

Muir wonders why real women can't be more like his pretend woman, and understand what guys really want...

Thursday, January 1, 2015

"This Is Totally What This Thing Means!"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because lime green.

Astonishing as it may seem, but Muir has actually managed to make Skye one of the less-objectionable character despite her raging assholishness simply because she's surrounded by people as bad or worse who imagine that they are better...
