I just met Rob at the comicon in Seattle and had him sign some books. I even bought the new Youngblood with the Obama cover. There were a lot of interesting folks there. Two borg and a slave Leia, rawr.
I wonder if Bok had made the pirates African, if he'd be accused of racism?
I get it. The pirates are white, so the navy takes action, whereas in real life when they're muslim and black, the government doesn't want to offend!
Note the astonished look on the pirate captain's face. This is well-illustrated, but would have been more engaging had Rob Liefeld illustrated it, because then the look on Pirate Captain (referred to from this point on as PC) would have had an intense look replete with jaw-clenching hyperdontia and superfluous wrinkles.
Actually, if there'd been a little monkey on one of the pirate's shoulders, then it would be racist.
In line with Pants Fan, if you ever want to be convinced of the
genius, absolute genius I tells ya, of Chip Box, look at the last
panel of this Marmaduke comic:

After that a root canal would be amusing, and Chip Bok becomes a
genius.
Whenever I see Suki here, I think of The Saggy Baggy Elephant.
Of course, his name is Sooki, but still...
One-two-three, Kick!
Er. Haha?
After reading those Marmadukes I thought to myself "Damn I should draw a cartoon about my oversized orange cat that sleeps a lot...wait a minute...FUCK YOU JIM DAVIS."
Bronwyn:"Whenever I see Suki here, I think of The Saggy Baggy
Elephant. Of course, his name is Sooki, but still..."
Who else is thinking "Me so horny! Me Suki, Suki!"?
Pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel attached to his belt buckle. Bartender says, "what's that for"? Pirate says, "Arrrrh! It drives me nuts!"
Yeah, this was the first Bok I can remember that produced a real laugh, as opposed to the thought: "Ah, I see where the joke is."
He should have also included a shark with the stars and stripes
on him, so you know that it is also against the Pirates, and
written on that giant gun barrel should say "I have not yet begun
to fight!" and maybe a bird who looks like Farragut saying "Damn
the pirates, full speed ahead!" and then in the bottom corner a
little Obama saying like "well they've forgotten about the
recession/stimulus for the moment at least!" and back behind him
would be Palin looking at an abortion clinic and a church saying
'eeny meeny miny...' and a little bird pointing to her (that maybe
looks like Huffington) saying "Geez, dis lady sure wants dee
spotlight!" and then somebody looking at the Huffington bird saying
"Physician, heal thyself!"
Get on it Bok, and post the revised comic later today.
I would have laughed if there was a sailor yelling from the
ship:
"Looks like you're the butt pirate now!"
Funny. Very nice. And it's a keeper because it illustrates how easy it is to defend against three ill-trained yahoos bobbing around in a dinghy.
Why didn't Jack tar sing "hi-diddley-dee" instead of "yo-ho-ho?"
Is Bok afraid of Disney?

What the hell happened to Pete Bagge?
More Bagge, less of these other guys.
I thought that Libertarian's don't want overseas armed forces. If so what is that boat doing overseas??
I wonder if Bok had made the pirates African, if he'd be accused of racism?
I actually thought about that, and it seems a disproportionate
amount of black people do get gunned down. On the other hand, the
prime killers of black people worldwide would seem to be:
1. Black people
2. Cops
......
11. BET
......
437. The Navy
But still, I could see why it would be a touchy subject.
"I actually thought about that, and it seems a disproportionate

You see, this just proves my point that Art P.O.G. is a rightwing
white supremacist domestic terrorist!

Sure, economist :D
"I wonder if Bok had made the pirates African, if he'd be

Well, they did it on South Park. The whole episode was
meh-entertaining.
