I think it started going downhill around October 2002. The early stuff is pretty nifty though.
It started going downhill when it became completely incomprehensible. The last few years, I can’t even follow most of the plotlines. It might help if Abrams wasn’t just congenitally incapable of letting a plotline end.
She doesn’t need a floatie.
I guess Oasis is a good choice if you’re into gymnasts.
I’d still pick Sasha. She has huge floaties.
And “deep.” I mean, c’mon, do I really want to slog through Torg’s angst over Zoe and Oasis? Gimmie the suicide bikini frisbee stuff, or at least a Stormbringer time-travel romp, instead.
I don’t even try to follow them any more, but just stick around for the jokes. I admit today’s strip (with Bun-Bun and the alien in the crow’s nest) had a funny exchange on the last panel.
Their adventures used to be so fun. Now I can’t even follow the storylines because they’ve popped up in eight separate incarnations and never made any sense to begin with. Who the hell was that purple thing from Hereti-Corp that they were chasing? Is K’z’k still around? What the hell was that whole bit a couple years ago with the house falling through hell? It just stopped making sense, and it’s sad.
