Kansas O’Flaherty

“Kansas O’Flaherty… Secret Agent,” the new weekly comic strip on Salon.com, is so entertaining to read because it’s such a horrible trainwreck. The comments by readers are so wonderfully vicious. Either (1) the writer and illustrator of the comic have no clue how to write a comic strip, (2) they think they’re being pretentiously cool with their anti-art but are failing miserably, or (3) it’s all an experiment and they’re trying to pull a fast one on the audience.

I can’t decide which.

Judge for yourself:

Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
