For the past six hours, people have been telling you that there is a problem with this strip. How long does it take for you to notice and correct the problem?
It is obvious that no QA is done on the site page: this renders in the same faulty way in FireFox, IE, Chrome, Opera, Iceweasle, and OB1. It strikes me that this may not be an error in rendering, but in presentation. The apparently missing data may not, in fact, exist in the file at all. FYI: The top of every frame is clipped until only two words of the entire strip can be read.
I was really kind of hoping this was some sort of clever joke about falling asleep during a conversation. You know, clever but failed. Vicki the Biker’s presence in the last panel makes that unlikely.
I’m betting Yahoo gets their copy from GoComics, so it still might be their fault. Anyway I’d like to see it fixed too, it’s one of my favorites. Guess I’ll have to break down and buy a paper, ‘cept it’s not in any local papers here.
When I brought the strip up in My Comics Page, it was cut off at the top. But here, I can see the whole thing. Don’t know if it was a problem earlier or not.
I see it just fine… Rose says: “Good morning. What is your agenda today?” and he answers “I propose a day of no rules, no plans and no expectatios” then a kind of biker girl says “The boy shows promise” I don’t know why Rose transformed into her

Oh good. I thought it was me.

someone really screwed up on this one.
Kitty_Noel over 13 years ago
I think comics.com did; so I’m not the only one seeing a comic that got cut off at the top?
Kitty_Noel over 13 years ago
@Ottodesu – yes, that’s Vicki on the last panel. It’s not the first time Pasquale’s encountered her, however.

Let’s hope they get this fixed soon. “Agenda today?” with 3 frames of Pasquale sleeping is just no good.
Frogman_tg over 13 years ago
The comic is the same way at yahoo comics as well, so it isn’t gocomics fault.

text is cut off at the top, only can read “agenda today.”
Durak Premium Member over 13 years ago
I don’t think that’s Vicky at the door. From what I can see it looks like “Mom” from Mother Goose & Grimm.

I knew I should have bought the 17" screen.

That’s the first time I’ve seen a computer COMIC mis-registered…

Until it’s resolved, Pasquale might as well sleep on it!

Thanks Homer, glad I didn’t miss that one.
heligmyer over 13 years ago
Yes, thanks Homer. It’s a lot better when scanned properly.

Somebody was sleep at the switch today???
mirabai305 over 13 years ago
It’s this way on the yahoo comics page as well. So it must be a formatting issue on the other end, not gocomics.

i agree with everyone else

They are learning how to screw up royally like the pros at Yahoo.
Ghost63368 over 13 years ago
Lost part of the comic? Perhaps the artist wanted it that way.

Wah! I hate it when this happens!

Thank you Homer! I hate to miss a guest appearance of VIcky!
twistedmonkey over 13 years ago
Not cool. Can’t read the script or see the sexy metalhead Rose!
skoallyrecovery over 13 years ago
it looks like a closet monster in the last frame :?
skoallyrecovery over 13 years ago
so much for that idea – Thanks Homer for the link to the rest of the story _

Actually I kind of like it like this

Sodaburger over 13 years ago
except, if you’ll notice, Yahoo pulls their comics feed FROM GoComics…
Thanks to Homer for this link:http://www.chron.com/apps/comics/showComic.mpl?date=2011/7/11&name=Rose

Refresh fixed it for me.
jeffsxq over 13 years ago
must have been fixed before I got to it, looks fine right away…love Rose’s alter-ego…
John Willis Premium Member over 13 years ago
Cut off a little on top but all 4 panels are here. Never noticed she had a rose tattoo before.

I’d never heard Rose’s alter ego called Vicki/Vicky. Anyone have any info on when/where that came from?
