What's up folks? After looking at all 39 of the short-lived Spy vs. Spy Sunday comic strips from 2002, this one is one of my favorites. I mean, panel three just melts my heart with Black mentioning his mother and father there. Seeing the illustration of his parents in the speech bubble in that same panel also has been giving me ideas, for some reason. Either way, it's just so heart-warming.
In panel five, that face is basically me whenever I receive a jury summons in the mail. Not to mention that's it is actually the image for the "This is gonna suck" trope page image. It's perfect for that.
As for the short-lived Sunday comic strips in general, it's hard to believe it's been almost 22 years since these have been made. I may have been in preschool (4-5 years old) at the time these were made, but holy frick I feel old (personally).
I do not claim ownership of the content. Spy vs. Spy belongs to the defunct MAD Magazine and the late, great Antonio Prohias. The Sunday Strips were produced by Dave Manak (illustrator) and the late, great Don "Duck" Edwing.
