Cartooning is hard...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

It's time to bring Rob Liefeld and Cathy Guisewhite on board...
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.
It doesn't totally suck?
It is by far the funniest chip bik cartoon posted on Reason today.
Yes. I'd like to buy a vowel. an O please.
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.
Is this one any funnier?

Is the funny part hidden by the ads on the right margin?
Hi domo! Hi Art!
Suki
Hi Suki!
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.
oops. Bok not Box, and here's the link: http://tinyurl.com/csvm4c
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!"?
Er... I think that's just you.
The Navy only protects rich white men.
...
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!"
Every time that whale bites me I get wood.
It explains the Hartford / New Orleans collision.
Oh, c'mon. This one was funny.
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.
Thanks, Ronctonculous, something on this page ought to make me laugh.
Not funny, Dude!
srsly
I peed myself (and not from laughing).
I would have laughed if there was a sailor yelling from the ship:
"Looks like you're the butt pirate now!"
(belated) Hi, Suki!
Ronctonculous, that was genius.
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?
Kevin
What the hell happened to Pete Bagge?
More Bagge, less of these other guys.
Boring. Bring back Peter Bagge.
I thought that Libertarian's don't want overseas armed forces. If so what is that boat doing overseas??
I'm a "Heinlein Libertarian," so I'm down with exterminating pirates.
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 amount of black people do get gunned down. On the other hand, the prime killers of black people worldwide would seem to be:

You see, this just proves my point that Art P.O.G. is a rightwing white supremacist domestic terrorist!
Sure, economist 😀
"I wonder if Bok had made the pirates African, if he'd be accused of racism?"
Well, they did it on South Park. The whole episode was meh-entertaining.
