I mean. I think I’ve seen that joke in something from the 60s, so at least the classics are being kept alive?Looks like that’s the intention, yes.
Can’t even imagine how the joke works without the gay element 😂 glad he’s bringing it to new audiences
New golden era for Adam Ellis?
I remember that he was a pretty bad comic artist with lames jokes, then he re invented himself with funny self conscious humor and now has come back with a very polished, but still characteristic art style.
Turns out having to churn out content for buzzfeed yields bad comics, and when he left he could actually take time to do them and care about them more and it turns out he’s pretty funny
He basically was able to flash his talent after leaving buzzfeed. His stuff with them was pretty bad though. Recycled jokes, recycled poses and panels. Basically no creativity. Probably had to do with the workload
yep, buzz feed 100% stifled his creativity. everything I’ve seen since then has been such an improvement
He also had a bit of a psychological horror phase with some genuinely chilling comics… and one oddly heartwarming one.
This joke is old as time, the only original part here is the boy being gay instead of straight
Yeah this is a very old and well-worn joke that is usually about adultery or casual sex:

But hey, putting a new twist on an old classic like this and being upfront about that being what you are doing, good on him
I’d say all of his recent comics are pretty solid so ya definitely an improvement
How does he know who the gay boys are…? 🤔
They clearly confessed first, works better in the original version imo
How would I know who the gay boys are? Cause they’re not exactly subtle about it! Just look for the rainbow flags and the glittery eyeshadow 🏳️💄 #GayPride #NoShame
This comic is missing the part where the priest invites him to become an altar boy.
Some beautiful new art on a very old joke.
Billy Russo?
