So, one of the cool things about ‘A Whole Lot of Nothing!’ is that it gives me a bunch of ideas for this series of accidental strips, I been referring to as ‘Freedom Line’. I came up with this one after writing Major Sims first piece, but then I thought, It kind of looks like they are all in one government again…
I sure went through a lot of trouble to establish that there was not a U.S. in the Onion. There’s the fascist ‘Trade Consortium’ that is pretty much a blatant plutocracy; a ‘right without a left’. And there’s the socialist ‘Royal Alliance’ which is a ‘left without a right’ but no two party system…
So I almost just skipped posting this one so as not to confuse anyone. But then I remembered ‘people aren’t stupid, Dave, people aren’t stupid!’ Groups of People, sure they’re stupid, but each individual person, nah, they’re not stupid. And so I posted it! That, my friends, is the story of how this comic got posted! Quite the ride I’m sure.(um, ‘Squire’s End’ next week!)
