It hardly ever snows in Canberra.)<br /><br />I hate when the Alec and Shannah say 'we don't need drugs, we feel good about ourselves' in a PSA. That's great for this good-looking pair of popular kids with loving like-minded siblings with two apparently loving parents and the ability to heal from wheelchair dependency between panels... but a lot of kids turn to drugs because they DON'T have that, and DON'T feel good about themselves.<br /><br />The kids look like they might've aged, and are maybe now in high school. Why the same teacher, though? Maybe she's Joo Dee?<br /><br />~ MikAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-56645309635509827592013-07-20T14:46:36.251-05:002013-07-20T14:46:36.251-05:00"being siblings is no impediment to shipping...."being siblings is no impediment to shipping."<br /><br />Well then, hopefully the sane shippers would have that reaction.KKDWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15264964289700883223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-54837421567283198572013-07-19T21:55:49.352-05:002013-07-19T21:55:49.352-05:00KKDW - As anyone who has ever read Supernatural fa...KKDW - As anyone who has ever read <i>Supernatural</i> fan fiction will attest, being siblings is no impediment to shipping.<br /><br />*shudder* So.

I have a feeling this will probably show up soon, probably during another Marville beatdown . . .<br /><br />You know, for a Tandy Computer Whiz Kids comic, there aren't enough pages of kids promoting the products! They spend too much time saying "drugs are bad" but never showing why drugs are bad. And don't get me started on the grammar errors! Have they never heard of proofreading?<br /><br />Seriously, why put kids in charge of a hotline for substance abuse? Maybe if we have college students, that would work out just fine, but preteens?

Also, the one drug dealer/scientist with blond hair and glasses reminded me of Barry Allen.<br /><br />Plot Twist! It will one day be revealed that the Tandy Wiz-Kid comics are actually some kind of alternate dimension/purgatory run by Alec and Shanna, for characters from other comics. And they have brainwashed them in to believing they are merely background characters in Alec and Shanna's lives, forcing them to relive alternate scenarios of the same first day back from summer break.

Even some of the other crappy comics that were reviewed on the show (PSA or not)at least gave various reasons why drugs were bad (e.g. making you see people that aren't there, a zombified version of your child, etc.) But that still doesn't excuse the fact that it caused yet another mental breakdown for our beloved comic reviewer. <br /><br />Thankfully, Linkara has the balls to handle such idiotically bad stories on a weekly basis.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13881676830017749078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-31038735988617164272013-07-17T10:44:25.323-05:002013-07-17T10:44:25.323-05:00Great review!
