    Minimum Security has undergone another metamorphosis, it seems. If nothing else, it shows Ms. McMillan isn’t married to a single style of presentation.

    Marigold’s personality has been upgraded from “Brillo pad” to “automotive sanding paper.”

    I seriously read that as “Kentucky bourbon,” and I have no idea how.

    Say, did Mr. Pastis change his art style, again? I noticed the characters’ heads look significantly larger and more rounded; further, in the case of Pig and Goat, their ears are floppier and positioned differently on said heads.

    Even as cooperative as we are compared to most other life forms on Earth, individualism and competition are still part and parcel of the human spirit. Adopting a different economic ideology isn’t going to change that.

    There’s so much truth in this comic that it should be enshrined in a museum.

    All work and no play makes Stalin a dull boy.

    Going back to 2006 and reading Ms. McMillan’s strips from that time, I can’t help but feel that Minimum Security, and her work in general, is all about exploiting a certain niche’s political beliefs for her own capitalist gain. These “daily affirmation” panels are far less bizarre and head-scratching than the ones predicting a worse-than-Nazism Bush administration, but of course it would eat into her profits if she ever admitted she was wrong; even if she ever addressed the issue of her outlandish predictions, she’d likely simply take credit for rallying enough citizens to keep the abuses she portrayed as inevitable and immediate from happening.

    I suppose if bilge like Mallard Fillmore can somehow get syndicated, so can insincere drivel like Minimum Security. This strip is about as genuinely proletarian as the real-world practice of Marxism has been.

    Radioactivity does not work that way, Ms. McMillan.
