How Comics Work

(Looky Squares/Justin Duvall)

Confused by comic strips? That's not unreasonable and is nothing to be ashamed of. If you didn't grow up with the medium, then you might not understand how sequential art works, especially the nuances of the classic 3-panel horizontal narrative. 

Cartoonist Justin Duvall explains while commenting:

seriously, who keeps a bomb in a safe anymore? what is this, Rocky & Bullwinkle?

That's what I do, but I'm a bit old-fashioned.

It's a "cake scoop". The makers of ice cream scoops, with their button to release the ice cream from their special spoon, thought that they could repeat their earlier success with a special fork that could release their piece of cake when they pressed the button as well.

This is a fork for extracting olives from an olive barrel. It has a convenient device for ejecting impaled olives from the tines. I'm surprised they still make these.

It's a s'more roasting fork. Just layer the ingredients, clamp it shut, then hold over the fire. It could use a longer handle though.

This is a Puritan courting fork from colonial New England. Using it, the happy couple could enjoy a meal together, while propriety was ensured by the sturdy central barrier.

It's a 70's sheep afro comb. Everyone got groovy back in the day.

Saw one at a flea market and asked Grandpa what it was. He said it was a separator. I asked how it worked. He said wait around a while and you'll see it separate some fool from his money.
