Dykes Towatch Out For by Alison Bechdel
WE INTERRUPT OUR
REGULARLY SCHEDULED COMIC STRIP FOR THIS IMPORTANT MESSAGE.
SORRY, FOLKS. I KNOW YOU WERE EXPECTING YOUR USUAL DOSE OF FROTHY, LIFESTYLEAFFIRMING CARTOON ZANINESS. BUT WE NEED TO TALK.
DOES THAT MEAN I CAN TAKE THIS OFF?
AND CAN I GET OUT OF THIS RIDICULOUS DRAG?
YEAH, YEAH. EVERYBODY TAKE FIVE.
APPARENTLY, SOME OF YOU ARE FINDING THE STRIP TO BE A BIT OF A DOWNER LATELY.
WHY'D THE BOOKSTORE HAVE TO CLOSE, YOU ASK. WHAT'S WITH THE LINES UNDER EVERYONE'S EYES? HOW COME NO ONE'S HAVING SEX? AND ALL THE BITTERNESS, THE DRINKING, THE ANTIDEPRESSANTS! WHERE'S THE JOY?!
EXCUSE ME. I'D JUST LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT SELF-REFERENTIALITY IN ENTERTAINMENT IS AN INEXCUSABLY INDULGENT CONCEIT.
Yo, MS. MENSA WE'RE OFFDUTY.
OH. HEY, WAS "THE BACHELORETTE" AWESOME LAST NIGHT, OR WHAT?

WHERE'S THE "JOY"?!!! WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHAT PLANET YOU PEOPLE ARE E-MAILING FROM, BUT ON THIS ONE, THERE'S NOT A BIG JOY SURPLUS AT THE MOMENT.
EVEN IF BUSH AND HIS IMPERIAL GUARD DON'T INCITE A MUTUALLY ASSURED DESTRUCTION
SCENARIO SOON,...
HEY!
CLINK CLINKS
...THEY'RE DRAGGING US INTO AN IRREVERSIBLE POLICY VORTEX! AN OLD TESTAMENT, SOCIAL DARWINIST, KU KLUX KLAN, KINDER KIRCHE KUCHE, TAKE FROM THE POOR, GIVE TO THE RICH, PAVE ALASKA, DAMN THE TORPEDOS FLUME TO HELL!
THE BAD GUYS ARE WINNING AND THEY'RE GONNA KEEP WINNING... BECAUSE THEY'RE BAD!
GOD, I DO HAVE LINES UNDER MY EYES.
THINK ABOUT IT! HOW CAN A MOTLEY BUNCH OF EGALITARIAN, DIVERSITY-RESPECTING NICE PEOPLE EVER HOPE TO TRIUMPH OVER THE HIERARCHICAL, MILITARISTIC, EMPIRE-SEEKING FORCES OF GLOBAL CAPITAL?
THAT'S WHY I'M STARTING AN ANTIWAR MILITIA
OKAY, THERE GOES OUR MILLION DOLLAR ENDORSEMENT FROM THE WOMEN'S INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE FOR PEACE AND FREEDOM.
