Root Beers #151: Keep Up with The Times


Hey, peeps. I feel all right. Just a bit of the sniffle. That's all.
Anyway, here's this week comic that acted like an advert for some kind of newspaper? Ah, whatever!
So, here it is. With a King who knows a thing or two about, yes you guessed it, humour!

Masthead says that on this day in 1939, NBC first started its television service from New York, with the opening of the New York’s World Fair.

Root Beers #150: Gilbert, George and Sullivan

Now, there are two events occurred on 23rd April 2016. St. George's Day and the 400th anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare. If you gentle fools don't know who Shakespeare is, look it up.
Also, I'm celebrating BBC Two's birthday with a mention at the top.
Plus, another shout-out to TomSka (for Mine Turtle) and Eddsworld (for that Sinister Guy. I don't think anyone did fan-art of him, before.

Root Beers #149: mEnwIL n 1969

First off, I would like to congratulate Eddsworld on gaining one million subscribers on its YouTube channel.

And now, more nonsense using transL8it! to convert English into TxtLingo, and re-visiting Monty Python's Flying Circus with Spitting Image roots. See? Doesn't make sense, really...

This week's masthead commemoratives the passing of D.A.R.E. co-founder, Daryl Gates, six years ago, today.

Root Beers #148: Wet One Minute, Please…

Ever felt that the recent wet weather was so bad? Well, this is the cartoon for you!
(Sorry, can't think of a better description.)


The masthead references that on this day, The Kamikaze arrives at Croydon Airport in London. It was the first Japanese-built aircraft to fly to Europe.

Root Beers #147: Another Bland Ad

In hoping of an apology involving yesterday's April Fools comic, here's the sequel comic to the coffee advertisement comic of which I have done not six weeks ago, on this very website.

Masthead Reference - The Falkland Islands was invaded by the Argentinians, thus provoking Mrs Thatcher to send out the Army and the Navy to save the islands.
