Dinosaur Comics has a new competitor in postmodern weirdness. Not new new, exactly, but new to me. Thinkin’ Lincoln is a webcomic dedicated to the disembodied heads of various historical figures and their hastily drawn antics. Example here. Together with Dinosaur Comics, Thinkin’ Lincoln creates a subgenre of humour that’s 50% lazy artistry and 50% gags that shouldn’t work but do. These boys make postmodern a freakin’ verb:
I hadn’t heard of Gregor MacGregor until Dinosaur Comics postmoderned him.
White Ninja Comics and anything you find in the back page of the Daily Texan aren’t part of this group. Where’s the 50% funny?
