Now, “editorial cartoonists” are supposed to come up with comics about the news of the day, but all other syndicated comics are done weeks in advance, explaining some belated mentions of big issues, and ALL the “Snakes on a Plane” jokes more than a month after it bombed in the theaters. But the timing of Dave Crowley’s Speed Bump coming up with this gag the day after several controversial Supreme Court decisions, including “Bong Hits 4 Jesus”, is almost eerie.

But then again, if he was legally savvy (and very few cartoonists are), he’d have known this was going to be the week for the Supremes to announce their final decisions of the term. Hmmmm….

I get at least 25% of my daily minimum requirement of cute from Count Your Sheep…

Because there just hasn’t been enough interesting stuff the last few days…

Savage Chickens explains EVERYTHING.

I thought it seemed rather stupid for Peter Parker to use his own phone to call a member of The Media and say “I’m Spiderman”…

But David Willis (scroll down to the blog) has it nailed: “Peter Parker, you’re retarded!”

Here’s a great one-panel Zippy-ism, appropriately in a strip about the “Hefty One-Zip”:

At least webcomics pariah Tim Buckley is smart enough to register the fake domain and put something there before he mentions it in his strip: CHURCHOFGAMING.COM. And considering the reliability of the character behind the Church of Gaming, a splashpage is probably all it’ll ever need.

I try to expand my webcomic reading from time to time, but Small Wonder is not going to make any of my lists if it’d going to do Calvin & Hobbes Cliche’d Reference #37.

As a former practitioner of the medium of Radio back when it was fun, I salute Dan ‘Bizarro’ Piraro:
