FWIW: This was originally posted to the LJ community namelessdread, but was deleted when it got popular. robyn_ma wrote:
“namelessdread, c’est fini. Y’know, I did it to amuse myself and the few people on my friends list who dug the humor and added themselves to the community. I didn’t want a fuckload of eyes on it, I don’t need to be worrying about lawyers coming after me, and I myself was not the fucking thing’s biggest fan in the first place. You take a cartoon and you stick someone else’s words under it big deal. Not what I really wish to put energy into, become notorious for, or catch legal bullets for. So: gone.”
As discussed in my LJ in May 2005.

I like it better with random cutouts from the finance section.
This is fine, also.

Family Circus is always good modifying fun.
These suck. How pseudo-intellectual!! How avante-garde!! (How un-funny!!)
Consider the source material. Family Circus is’nt exactly the most ‘intellectual’ comic you’ll read. I think the creator nailed the feeling of a Family Circus cartoon about Cthulhu perfectly.
And it’s gone. 404′s.
Just a heads up.
Not to worry. I made copies, and the links now take you to them.
Always good to hear from the world’s coolest club-owner!
As for the Cthulhu comics: May 2005? I’m always late to the party.

Reminds me of “The Dysfunctional Family Circus” from a few years back…
Pronounce it “fah-TAG-en”.
Cah-thoo-loo told me so.
Pure genius. I love these. Please don’t ever remove them, and do make more!
they *really* need to be printed on shirts, or giant posters.. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAN, YOU NEED TO GENERATE MORE! MORE!
btw, trackback appears to be broken? (kill this post after you check)
I love these. Linking to ‘em!
Dat is 2 funny!
