Roddy: Let me introduce myself!! Roddy Entwistle editor of the daily halfpipe ...a fine newspaper!! Id love , love, love to run your cartoons in the pipe... But we dont have any black people in our town!! KK: You've got humans in your town, yes? Roddy: Whats that supposed to mean? KK: Youre not black and you like my comic strip ...so what makes you think other non blacks wont like it? Roddy: Because IM open minded!! K: !!! (really happened!!)
St Louis tried the open minded angle for a while. We had Curtis and Candorville for a short time. Now the only black person in the comics is the young lady in Prickly City. The reason she gets to stay is because it’s a republican comic. I’m waiting for them to pull Funky Winkerbean. Maybe they haven’t noticed that Les is married to a black chick. Shhhh whatever you do don’t tell them.
