Barkeater Lake
Still a slow week, just two silent penultimate panels this Wednesday:
Overboard by Chip Dunham
Barkeater Lake by Corey Pandolph
Pandolph has been doing something called Fan Dialogue Week with mixed results:
I don't know if Barkeater Lake has enough stature or established fan base to pull off something like this. Darby Conley could do this the next time he's feeling a little lazy, (it would be better than pasting Satchel faces onto Pearls Before Swine art) but I think it's always better just to make jokes than to do some high-concept gimmick.

I'm pretty sure that Pandolph is riffing on the Pluggers/TDIET thing here and these are not actual fan submissions. (This is bolstered by the Thursday cartoon "submitted" by the Krinkles author.) A reasonable enough thing to satire, but I'm not sure it has enough to fill out a whole week.
Corey has been doing strips like this lately this year. I think he has a burnout or something.
Better than another reruns, though.
