The Comics Curmudgeon

Why must your read The Comics Curmudgeon? Well, there's the proposed story arc for Mark Trail, extrapolating from recent plot developments:

In an earlier strip this week, they talked about dumping “the body” in the bay, and I thought it would be interesting if every Mark Trail strip for the next three years were just three panels of his waterlogged corpse, decaying imperceptibly day by day until eventually there’s nothing left but a barnacle-encrusted skeleton.

Then there's this savaging of Sally Forth. And then a jump back in time for more Mark Trail.
