I gotta feeling thats a Trad Wife but she gotten an upgrade

Oh that was me

which one was u

I’m the one smoking obvi 🚬

that doesn't narrow it down!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would you be happier if I was a boy? Or a girl? 😆

Sometimes you're the confident curvaceous lady, sometimes the disgruntled dude powering through. Sometimes both!

that's what it's all about

nature is beautiful

I only bought 3 pair & now they’re all worn out, & I’m kicking myself.

300… lol

Don't laugh. Go to a department store and look at high end blouses.

The average woman is not paying 300 dollars for a blouse

more about the guy

I met this man in Costco six pairs of pants

Inside me are two wolves…

LOL

This looks familiar

I hope they have a nice day ❤️

Your Alt+ misses his forearm tattoos, and doesn’t do justice to how short the sundress is.

I'm attracted to both.

Ooo Luuucillle...😆

S-Tier reference

She's off to go wash a car.😜

@johnferrara.bsky.social is this you guys? 😅😂

Chasing cake

"Bogie and Bacall: The Dirtbag Years."

omg you captured them perfectly! This def gives off a vibe would you allow redraws with credit?

Naw just a loser trying to rob a lady

Half expected this to be "before and after estrogen."

God, I wish!

Somewhere in Italy

Woman and her stalker. 2025. 🥰

“Show me a beautiful woman and I’ll show you a man that’s tired of her BS.” -unaccredited

Ahh, some good old morning misogyny!

It's just a joke, relax.

could you explain the joke part of it? like, i know its a joke but im trying to figure it out

The punchline, I think, is that the man is tired of her BS. Does he not look exhausted? Is it her doing necessarily? I dunno? Maybe, maybe not. Could be the cigarettes. Maybe his dog just died.

It might be fairer to say that it doesn’t appear that they have a happy relationship. She certainly looks tired of his shit too.

Not a joke. A misogynist quote.

Jokes have to be funny tho

First of all, humor is subjective.

Sure, but I think only men who dislike their wives/partner would find this funny. It's like the ball and chain "jokes." That said, anyone who finds this funny can probably use it as a tell that it's time to divorce, so it does serve a purpose.

It’s certainly a negative perspective on relationships, to be sure. But I mean, for real, do the people in that depiction look happy together?

You mean the art? I can't tell a thing about their relationship from it. At most, I could say that it looks like one of them enjoys going for a walk and one doesn't. And arguably, the fact that the man is willingly going on the walk despite it not being his thing indicates affection.

I'm generally a morning person, my partner isn't. She'd probably look like the guy if I dragged her on a morning walk with me. And we adore each other lol. If the art piece had them facing each other and he still had this expression, I'd say your interpretation could work.

But yeah... man with grumpy expression + woman with happy expression does not automatically equal "man tired of woman's shit." I think assuming that (even as a joke) speaks to the mentality that "women make men miserable" which is a bad ideology for anyone to have.

Dang, that shit is some SCATHING incel shit

It’s hack

Also subjective. I don’t disagree necessarily.

He looks like he eats cigarettes

Popeye hasn't changed much, but Olive Oyl got a serious makeover!

I really like this picture. Funny and beautiful. 🙂👍

Thank you!

Great style, contrast in styles. Good work.

I was looking for this comment 💯

#goals

It needs the inbetweens of the goon finding a book (the Bimbo Bible?) And their transformation into the babe.

nice XD

Me mentally writing the backstory

This is every other issue of The Goon to me. Excellent job

Fantastic.

They are either the most Left couple in this city, living life their way, or they are a retired ParaMil soldier and his Trad Wife on their way to donate to Big Coal

Her butt is too big to be a liberal.

I don't even know where to begin with this comment

I can smell the stench from here

She obviously prays a lot

Eva Heinemann and Martin from Monster when they had just met

He's datin' the Don's daughter! That mooks gotta be careful.

but are they both men?

but why does that matter?

Depends. The man follows the woman; they retreat; and while penetrating her, he discovers she has a penis... like what happened to a soldier 40 years ago with a prostitute: the most beautiful of them all.

Every comment this dude has on this thread is icky.

I like the vibe that this is going

As seen in Fountain Square?

Not the style, but the content and vibe of this reminds me very much of R. Crumb.

psychobilly couple

Definitely The Cramps-coded

The woman on the right is literally just

The guy looks a little like The Goon.

Those are their working gigs. This time it was just candid casual.

what is this from?

It's from The Goon, a comic by Eric Powell. Sort of a mix of hillbilly gothic, old-timey gangsters, b-movie monsters, etc. The main characters are the titular Goon (a strongman turned Mob Enforcer) and his best friend Franky, who fight a gang of the undead for control of a small town.

For some reason it reminded me of Mignola hellboy asthetically, ill have to take a look at it.

ope lmao

I bet you that man has been through hell and back, but will still sit you down and tell you stories, pat you on the back, and teach you good life lessons.

Congratulations on spotting that Eric Powell character on the left in the wild. Not sure who designed right, tho. Maybe Manara?

Oh that screams Jamie Hernandez to me!

"He makes me laugh."

Great sketch I like it. Looks like a rockabilly couple to me that are probably happier than the miserable fucks in the comments.

I'd read that comic book...

They won't be arguing with each other about smoking.

I saw them in Vegas.

Back in my day, guys like him are what we call "goon"

And currently that’s just a guy with tattoos and a cigarette.

That's my roommate Wes and his girlfriend Kelly.

Daisy Mae and Guido.

Cyd Charisse

It's the Bacchus/Palomar crossover I didn't even know I wanted!

is that the trad wife from chad memes

I hope they never outlaw seeing things on the street.

A moment later, the Gershwin music kicks in, they fling their cigarettes away, and throw themselves into a jazz pas de deux worthy of Gene Kelly.

Bonjour aux amis du malheur nous sommes fous

The only thing that would make it better would be Lesie Caron!!

Or even better, LESLIE Caron!!!

They look like a French New Wave Couple

Fantastic, Dan.

Is that just The Goon and the pretty lady from rightwing memes?

The most beautiful woman you’ve ever seen in your life and some dude. 100% accuracy 😂

the most common hobby amongst beautiful women appears to be collecting little angry gremlins

I’m really more of a Pooh Bear than a gremlin, but I sure wish some stunning strong vixen would take an interest in my silly old bear ass.

Omg I feel this. And not just because of how I dress in the house and am always thinking of food 😂

I need a beautiful non-straight woman to collect me 😩

unfortunately, same. me and the gremlin i collected ages ago when i vaguely passed as a beautiful woman *sends out pet gremlin, bonded pair applications*

Reminds me of the Orgy Dragons.

its called a Boebert

In what universe? Guido's not getting a handjob.

This one, in the a theater during a performance of Beetlejuice specifically.

same.

My wife is gorgeous and I am indeed the gremlin on two mood stabilizers with a fuckass mustache, I gasped.

😂 Hey, we love and are here for our self-care monarchs! Keep taking those pills (as directed by your doctor)! 👏🏻

men are always like "a woman wants a strong muscular man with a chiseled jawline and $25mill bank account" and women are always like "i could fix popeye"

He does look like Popeye! 🤣💀

Probably a thief following a lady around.

That is not just "some dude" thats the fucking goon

girl you can't be acting like this

Andy Capp and wife: early years. XD Great work and style!

Why does this remind me of the virgin and the chad. Is it too late for me?

he kinda looks like coyle from the outlast trials

Damn her ass was spilling out the bottom of the dress.

This is fantastic. I love it when people draw people they see instead of taking pictures

A lot less invasive yes. Unless you are too good at drawing then we are back at square one.

Good thing OP sucks at drawing. Kidding, I know exactly where and who it is based on the squiggly lines representing the ground and the couple's gait.

That couple really is *click*click*.

Whatever happened to @johnnyspacey.bsky.social and the foxy fire fighter?

Nous somme la!

They've unlocked Hetero Plus™

this is all us girls really want deep down, really

He’s going to poke her ass with his cigarette isn’t he?

Apache Dancers?

Dan I need you to know that, not knowing we were friends or anything, my partner texted me this picture and said "this is us if we smoked" and I don't know how to feel

Lol.

Oh the validation this brings me

Oh, you re-ignited my desire to go to the city and people watch

You know they are the protagonist of some wild story.

God ain’t that the life

Did they spontaneously perform an Apache dance? www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPSh...

Big respect for not taking their actual picture and pasting it on the internet. Normalize just drawing silly guys you see In the world🙌

Guarding the goods.

love the knee details!

This is absolutely nostalgic to me! Thank you 🙏 it kind of reminds me of the old Dick Tracy cartoons 😁👌 well, the bad guy here for sure 👍 great work ❤️

Can I say something
