The beauty of Mallard Fillmore is that it's even weirder than it sounds. If you tried to describe it to someone and said, "Oh, it's a comic where a talking duck spews far-right talking points," you still wouldn't quite capture the bizarre universe of the strip.

yeah i don't even understand his point in that first one... white politicians go out of their way to point out they're not racist to court black votes, which means... racism must not be that bad? Um, no, little duck. Let me tell you a story...

funny thing about that first Mallard strip is that I distinctly remember Charlton Heston using 'marched with King' as an excuse when he was accused of racism/not giving a damn about guns killing young black men.

That was mallard talking there. But it maybe goes double for heston.
I haven't been tracking these guys, so i don't know how tortured their caricatures of Obama have gotten...

I wonder how much irony was intended with the penultimate Patriotart toon.
― libcrypt, Monday, 21 January 2008 23:26 (sixteen years ago) link
I think what was intended is that Hillary is even more of a bitch than Coulter. Which, while less ironical, is still o_O.

I should've known Dan would be a Huckafan.
Impressed that you can go "realistic" when your crazy brain calls for it.
― Pleasant Plains, Tuesday, 29 January 2008 20:35 (sixteen years ago) link
You know, I meant to say 'haven't' been feeling very batshit lately. I had to go through two and a half months worth of toons just to find those three.
I was actually pretty critical of Huck before that cartoon, but the Thompsonites were so condescendingly set against the Huckmeister they caused me to change my mind.

Isn't it uncomfortable to sit/pose like that for extended periods of time? Do all of his female characters have malformed spines due to striking a pose?

Okay, her teacher is a communist. Is that supposed to be funny per se?

Communists are funny, look at this one and tell me you aren't splitting your sides:
