While expanding my comics canon (can't rip on Drabble every day), I've stumbled across a few new strips. Above we have La Cucaracha, which spent the week spoofing Disney's acquisition of Marvel.
And below, a comic called Housebroken. Tyler Perry robots? I can get behind that.
It seems the success of these minority-themed strips lies in their willingness to mock pop culture. Probably because they're not written by 60-year-old white guys whose idea of pop culture is Tony Bennett and M*A*S*H.
To temper the optimism of this post, though, I leave you with a recent edition of Secret Asian Man, which, despite its promising title, sucks:
Themes of friendship and high adventure? *YAWN*

hate those guys. ...
Why do we read these funnies, most of them aren't funny. I hate the ones where you don't know if its a punch line or not. Anyway secret asian man is very promising. You should write your own funnies, apparently you get some sort of tenure. Why all the old guys...Imma check out some chinese papers and see if they got funnies.
