Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Geez what's next, a Breaking Bad show without Walter White or Jesse?

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 22 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Walt and Jesse are there but there's no drugs.

Breaking Bad reimagined this time it's about the bad breakup between Walter and Jesse stretched into 8 seasons.

All while living in constant fear, for no particular reason, of a random guy who owns a small fried chicken restaurant chain.

Family Guy without the family... or the guy

Tucker Carlson without racism?

Or an All in the Family show with no Archie Bunker? Or a Happy Days show with no Fonzie or Richie Cunningham?

At this rate they're going to be making Star Wars stuff without Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker.

The irony here is that it could very well be much better than whatever Disney did, especially if you consider some of the stuff from the 90s and 2000s games, like Dark Forces or Knights of the Old Republic.

Hey, that last one could work as a movie if not a TV series. Chuck Cunningham comes back.

They could reshoot a few scenes from the TV show with lookalike actors, have Chuck play out his final bit, and then a few more scenes from the show that make it clear that no-one remembers him. At all.

Now, think about it: Extra-terrestrial aliens are canon in Happy Days (Mork and Mindy was a spin-off), so it's possibly some other alien race abducted Chuck and caused everyone to forget he ever existed.

Depending on what time period he comes back to, this could be played for laughs or for existential horror.
