Weapon Brown 113
Thanks for your patience, crude believers! I’ve had a few obligations that have kept me from getting the strip drawn a week ahead of time as I prefer, and this has put a hiccup in my preferred Monday/Wednesday schedule.
Also, in order to get you a full-sized second strip this week and still get all those Blockhead’s War #2 orders in the mail, I am going to push the next update to Friday. Just keep re-reading today’s strip. Plenty of nuance to tide you over!

And bring that rumble on !! Go Snoop show that marmaduke what a real dog fights like ! even if you are no that enormous, ha ha.

I just knew that Marmaduke would appear here, and that he’d be called Duke. Of course, we can’t have Snoop die just yet, so what’s going to happen next?
A — Snoop whacks Duke.
B — Snoop eludes Duke, who then chomps on Dogwood.
C — The fight is stopped by Anne or someone else, because they need Snoop alive for now.
D — Other.
Place yer bets!
BTW, if you’re going to have bickering couples, why not have The Lockhorns, or Andy Capp and ‘is missus?

I recognize the other canines in today’s strip: Rosebud the Basselope from “Bloom County” (panel 1) and Edgar from “For Better or Worse” (panel 4).

oh fuck.. he’s so much bigger than Snoop. Either Snoop is going to have to make some friends fast, or he’s going to kick some serious ass.
In the second last frame I see Farley, from For Better or Worse.
In the first frame I also see a dog, but cannot remember his name. I think he is from Crankshaft, but am not certain. I seem to remember the dog with antlers from a sunday I used to read, but cannot place it. Anyone?
Out of curiosity, who (which strip) says doggone again?
November 3rd, 2009 at 3:45 pm
Sherlock, haha.. opps now I see the other comments. I do think the antlers is from bloom county. Yes, that’s right Crankshaft had a cat. In the fourth it’s Farley, not Edgar from FBOW. Awesome stuff. Go Snoop!

that look in Duke’s eye is priceless.
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:44 pm
The Doggone funny thing is the true but usually not funny stories at the end of the Marmaduke strips.
November 3rd, 2009 at 8:02 pm
Hooray Rosebud! Let’s see some basselope puppies!
Also, ohshit ohshit ohshit Snoopy. This is it.
captcha fairest production

ha ha ha … it’s like he thinks he’s people! oh wait wrong comic…
Snoop has a lower center of gravity, my bux are on him

Swallowing Snoop whole will get him away from both teeth and claws, yet give Snoop unmuzzled access to Duke’s vital organs. Either Duke rethinks his strategy, or Snoop eats his way out.

You know? Marmaduke is one of the worst strips ever drawn. And yet to have him portrayed here like this is pretty outstanding. He goes from dipshit to arguably the scariest dog I have ever seen. I hope he gives a good fight before Snoop gets him down on a technicality.
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:43 pm
It’s not the size of the dog in the fight…
November 4th, 2009 at 4:22 am
My prediction?
No way that small chain link fence is gonna contain those two.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:46 am
Nah, Marmaduke’s a red herring. What’s really going to happen is that Fred Basset’s gonna come in and bore everyone to death.
November 4th, 2009 at 10:18 am
I must admit, I completely failed to see this coming – quite possibly because Marmaduke is indeed so very forgettable.
Alas, I am disinclined to give this particular strip the scrutiny it deserves owing to the second appearance of the chaps. Gwah.
November 4th, 2009 at 12:31 pm
lkjsdlkfjlksdjf: I’m pretty sure that’s Edgar, not Farley; I remember that Edgar was the freakish-looking one, because his ears were way too low on his head for a dog.
November 4th, 2009 at 12:35 pm
Maybe WB will show up and tear marmaduke apart, and then he will impale dagwood, hell yeah rip them all apart WB !!, ha ha, I find pretty perverse wait to c what will come next, ha ha. thanks for briging sense back to my life.
November 4th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
I was expecting Dagwood to run out the door screaming only to run smack into the mailman.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:34 pm
I agree with KiZeR, that chain link won’t hold up to an all out fight. But my prediction depends on a piece of missing info: Just what is the Spook doing right now?
November 4th, 2009 at 11:21 pm
You know, with multiple shots of Dagwood’s assless chaps, and Blondie’s beastiality quips, I half-suspect that Duke is going to ignore Snoopy altogether and just get busy dog-raping the hell out of ol’ “Dog-Wood”
November 5th, 2009 at 10:00 am
Guess you guys never saw a smaller dog take on a larger one, most of the time the larger dog loses since the smaller one can get under them and get to their belly and “other things”, and do some serious damage.
November 5th, 2009 at 1:51 pm
What Richard said above absolutely has to happen. Maybe not next update, but at some point.
November 5th, 2009 at 2:06 pm
Dag is going to run into Karl Malone?
