			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hagar The Horrible is an awful, awful comic strip. It is a daily, self-fulfilling prophecy. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/75277.gif" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/75277.gif" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-64" title="Hagar" src="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/75277.gif" alt="Hagar" width="420" height="281" /></a><br />
</span></p>
<p>Not only is there no discernible punchline in the final panel (which is devoid of anything that would infer any form of inflection to the mother&#8217;s words, such as punctuation), but the first two panels were seemingly just tacked on to increase the quantity of content. </p>
<p>I feel as though there are hidden messages in Hagar comics. The third panel of the one above asks a question that the fifth answers. The fourth panel asks a question that the sixth answers. And then there are these:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/hagar_the_horrible.gif" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-73" title="hagar_the_horrible" src="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/hagar_the_horrible.gif" alt="hagar_the_horrible" width="368" height="111" /></a></p>
<p>Hagar&#8217;s dog is disheartened by a sign that says &#8216;no trees&#8217;. However, there is a tree. And the pain becomes very personal somehow. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/hagar_the_horrible-3.gif" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-71" title="hagar_the_horrible-3" src="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/hagar_the_horrible-3.gif" alt="hagar_the_horrible-3" width="368" height="111" /></a></p>
<p>Hagar&#8217;s friend reads a letter. Hagar asks who wrote it. Hagar&#8217;s friend tells him. Everyone continues on to Family Circus. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/hagar_the_horrible-1.gif" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-70" title="hagar_the_horrible-1" src="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/hagar_the_horrible-1.gif" alt="hagar_the_horrible-1" width="368" height="109" /></a></p>
<p>After a quiet moment of reflection, we find out that Hagar&#8217;s friend is somewhat dim.</p>
<p>It would seem the formula is wholly unremarkable statements with picture accompaniment. So I made one myself:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/hagar_the_horrible-4.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-82" title="hagar_the_horrible-4" src="http://www.boxofjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/hagar_the_horrible-4.jpg" alt="hagar_the_horrible-4" width="368" height="110" /></a></p>
