Before you comment
The comments section is here to provide a platform for civil dialogue on the issues we face together as a local community. Xpress is committed to offering this platform for all voices, but when the tone of the discussion gets nasty or strays off topic, we believe many people choose not to participate. Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service. Thank you for being part of this effort to promote respectful discussion.
Give Dan Bushnell a job. Hell, I will!

This issue was completely misleading. It said it was to be a comical issue…….Ummm…………..not hardly. there were maybe 3 pages with some incredibly cheesy and not funny comics, but there was no humor anywhere else in the issue. when you tout the issue as comical, there should be more than just a few pages with bad comics. You guys keep getting worse and worse.
Did I mention that the comics were not funny? Because they weren’t. Not even a little bit. Nope. Not even a chuckle.
I’ll bet you guys were desperate for some stuff to fill your issue with, because, forgive me, but the comics were just horrid. I would keep looking for a good cartoonist if I were you. Just drawing a funny looking character with a speech bubble does not make it funny.
