Underground Dragon linked to The Marmaduke Project, which tries to make the comic strip funny by altering it (executive summary : only putting in completely new captions seems to work). In a coincidence that simply cannot be explained, I came across the Joe Mathlete Explains Today's Marmaduke blog, which is marvelous, because all these years I thought Marmaduke wasn't funny, but when it's explained to me, it's batshit hilarious.

really, you only liked the changed captions? Those are my least favorite. How can you not like Marmaduke as a 40's radio show?

The 40's radio show is good, yes, but it reminds me too much of life without the many comforts and conveniences that we have today, so instead of laughing I feel really weird inside.

I also like the New Yorker switcheroo cartoons.
