I don't think enough people appreciate the comic possibilities of suicide anymore. (via memepool)

Neat. Reminds me of the incredibly cool Rodolphe Töpffer comic that was in the McSweeney's comic issue.

The classic cartoon suicides.

Suicide is not so much painless as it is hilarious.

Didn't know there was a Woody Allen comic strip....

For whatever reason, the last strip made me think of Michael Jackson.

Mickey should've offed himself back then.

It would've saved Michael Eisner a whole lotta trouble.

Mickey's edgy. Who knew?

Mickey's attempts are clearly cries for help. Its sad that he gets support only from the squirrels. Maybe he should go for a few drinks with Horse Collar, get some strange, sort things out.

Moral: Minnie is a ho.

Well, only one in two million people has what we call the evil gene. Hitler had it, Walt Disney had it, and Freddy Quimby has it.
