Sunday daily

Yes, that's right, your friendly neighbourhood Ugliness Man is back, filling in once again for Matt as he takes some well-deserved time off. For those of you who weren't around last time I took over, keep in mind that I'm Canadian, so don't be confused by the occasional extra "u" during this period. An average Sunday for my first day back.











Overboard by Chip Dunham
Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller
Brewster Rockit: Space Guy by Tim Rickard
Momma by Mell Lazarus
Frazz by Jef Mallett

Not only does today's Overboard have the SPP, but it's yet another 4-panel cop-out. As we've discussed before, sometimes comic strip artists completely waste all the extra space given to them on Sunday by drawing what basically amounts to an enlarged daily strip, and Chip Dunham seems to do that way more than the others.

Overboard is not the worst comic in the paper, (it does suck pretty bad, but sadly, many others are even more awful), but it consistently seems to be one of the most poorly paced and awkwardly phrased comics out there. The cartoonist frequently draws in five panels what a good cartoonist could draw in three. And I hope the recently introduced mouse with boobs is killed off soon...It's freakin' me out worse than that talking dog with earrings.

michael: I didn't include Opus because the silent panel contains "necessary action".
