He sure was violent.
- Ikr?
  
  Opening a newspaper in the full tram, like that, effectively banning people in front of him to the shadow realm & taking in personal space from at least 2 people.
  
  It's hard to get more violent than that.
I just realize how much I miss comics from a hundred years ago from that other place.
- I enjoy seeing them too, so I've been making an effort to sprinkle some in with my usual posts recently.
  
  You are the kind of person we need surfing the Internet, 24/7.
  
  I politely ask anyone searching for bomb making instructions, intending to spread lies or hoping to harass some people, to fuck off this planet.
  
  Edit: "This is" to "You are"
For the 1915 intended reader, the punchline is that Everett is ill-tempered with an extremely short fuse.

For a 2024 reader, it's a Tuesday.
The left half of the bottom panel would make a great reaction meme.
- Lol, you're right. Made a quick one about my experience finding memes for Lemmy.
  
  Lol nice
  
  Shouldn't it be the other way around since its Evert true? Him getting annoyed by crypto scams and punching them
Jeez picard where do you even find these?
- I started actively searching for oldies after posting a random comic from the 60s/70s the other week, because people seemed to enjoy it. I like the variety!
  
  I definitely do. Thanks!
  
  Doing the lords work.
  
  Keep it up!
Check out the smirk on the guy on the bottom left. Dude is glad to see him get popped
Everett True is no gentleman.
He's a big old unit
Boom, right in the kisser!
