Hard to read what's going on in the last two panels. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] wjrii@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) Looks like just "CHOW" for the last syllable of the sneeze, along with some artwork indicating it broke the comic strip panels (aka "the gag"). This is one of those ones that's really interesting as a historical artifact, but less compelling as a joke for modern audiences. Without decades of fourth-wall breaking in their cultural memories, it probably cracked people up in 1905. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] GTG3000@programming.dev 1 point 2 years ago I get the joke, I just literally can't see what's going on in those two panels, turns into noise for me. permalink fedilink source parent
