Mark and Niecy get into the online weeds

Glamor Gorilla!? Okay, this is obviously a parody of hooking up websites. But just searching Glamor Gorilla is hardly a thorough search of the web. Still, what is it Mark has seen that gives him pause? He didn’t say it was someone but something. Maybe he found Happy’s profile on the web site!!

Anyway, check out Mark’s head in panel 4. It is either an extremely bad case of sloppy drawing or Jules Rivera has attempted to show a head doing a fast double-take. I figure it is the latter, though I’ve never seen Rivera attempt this before. Have you?

Frankly, it needs a bit more visual reinforcement, such as a few of those semi-circular arc lines that indicate rotational movement. Mort Walker referred to these lines as agitrons (lines showing a reaction to something).

One thought on “Mark and Niecy get into the online weeds

  1. Mark has a spiral next to his head.
    The weird spot today is Niecy’s nose. Hippo, mustache, lasso.
    Glamor Gorilla must have some connection to the gorilla sanctuary, but I don’t see it mentioned yet in this story.
    Trying to return a phone call but the office I’m calling shuts down for lunch.
