Dykes ToWatch Out For by Alison Bechdel

MO'S SO TWEAKED ABOUT WHETHER SHE'S GONNA GET INTO LIBRARY SCHOOL OR NOT, HER USUAL APOCA LYPTIC MODE HAS GONE INTO WARP DRIVE. I'M GLAD YOU GUYS COULD COME OVER.MAYBE SHE'LL SETTLE DOWN.

END GAMER

So, SYDNEY HASN'T

HEARD YET ABOUT TENURE?

NO. BUT BETWEEN YOU AND ME, THE BEST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN IS IF SHE GETS DENIED. SHE'S SO DESPERATE FOR EXTERNAL SUCCESS, SHE MAKES GENGHIS KHAN LOOK UNMOTIVATED. I'M HOPING TONIGHT WILL RELAX HERA BIT.

OH, AND DID I MENTION SHE'S TAKEN TO DRINK?

THIS IS NOT 'DRINK. IT COSTS FIFTY DOLLARS A BOTTLE.

MO, GIVE IT A REST. WE'RE TRYING TO UNWIND.

HEY, YOU'LL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO UNWIND AFTER WORLD WAR THREE. BELIEVE ME

OKAY, SUICIDE TERRORISM. HOW D'YOU STOP IT? YOU CAN'T CRACK DOWN ON PEOPLE WHO ARE ALREADY WILLING TO DIE. AND WHY WOULD THEY VOLUNTARILY GIVE UP THE ONLY TACTIC THAT GETS ANYONE'S ATTENTION?

IF TERRORISM IS A FORM OF ASYMMETRIC WARFARE, A WAY OF COPING WITH A MORE POWERFUL ENEMY, THEN DOESN'T INCREASING THE IMBALANCE OF POWER ONLY INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD OF TERRORISM?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S SCARIER, A SUICIDE BOMBER WITH A NUCLEAR WEAPON, OR DICK CHENEY'S PLAN FOR AMERICAN WORLD DOMINATION!

'HOPELESS'?

WELL.

THAT'S APT.

GOD, YOU'RE ALL SUCH PESSIMISTS! SURELY THERE'S STILL ROOM FOR HOPE IN THE WORLD.
