IMPORTANT: E-MAIL ADDRESS CHANGE

Cidu Bill on Aug 5th 2008

Spam has pretty much made the e-mail address I’ve used for the past four years useless, so all submissions to the CIDU Page should now be sent to comicsidontunderstand………………at……………………gmail.com.

A couple of other notes that I’ll be adding to the FAQ along with the e-mail change:

If you send a comment that uses the word “suck” in any context, it will be sent to my moderation queue rather than immediately appearing on the page. This filter was necessary because of the vast amount of sexually-based spam that includes the word.

Yes, once again spam is inconveniencing everybody. It sucks, I know.

Knowing this doesn’t help me understand the comic, unless Frazz (tall white guy) actually thought that Caulfield (little black dude) meant that Rockwell wouldn’t have painted him because of his t-shirt.And just as an aside, I wonder why, since Mallet was clearly evoking one of Rockwell’s more famous paintings (”The Runaway”) anyway, he didn’t construct his version much closer to the original. This is one of those rare times when I would like to know what the artist was thinking.
