Hello everetters,

For a while I've been thinking about transcribing the comics I post so more people can enjoy them, but I've never actually transcribed before so I could use some pointers.

I'm very bad at describing anything that isn't dialogue, and I'm unsure if transcribing solely the dialogue is sufficient to get the message across, so maybe with somebody with more experience could voluntarily transcribe the comics at their own convenience? In which case, I would post their transcription in the text body.

If anybody got any suggestions / advice on how to transcribe actions and environment, or if you want to voluntarily transcribe some comics posted here, feel free to let me know in the comments.

Cheers!

Hi y'all,

Just wanted to sticky this to let y'all know that this community exists and I am the moderator (also of !madmax@midwest.social). I don't want to be the only one posting so I hope y'all post your favourite True strips in here as well. Also some simple rules:

  1. This place is only for the posting of Everett True comics by Condo,
  2. Please try posting the most high quality image of a comic excerpt,
  3. If you can, post the publication date of the comic strip, otherwise type either nothing or (date unknown).

Okay Everett lovers let's get this twentieth century party started

This cartoon was printed 110 years ago today on September 1, 1914.

World War 1 was in progress, though it wasn't called that yet. On the Western Front, Imperial Germany's invasion was underway and the French and British armies had been in retreat for almost a week. Among the engagements of this day was a skirmish near Néry, where a dismounted British cavalry division fought a dismounted German cavalry division. The outnumbered British forces prevailed, and three British soldiers were later awarded the prestigious Victoria Cross. The French and British forces continued to retreat, but they were doing so in an orderly manner, and in a few days they would be ready to counterattack in one of the most significant battles of the century.

Meanwhile, in rapidly-urbanizing America, Everett True was beginning to wonder if cars were a good idea after all.

We have this phenomenon where I live where people won't leave your house. Just as they're getting up to go they'll start telling another story. They'll put their shoes on and have another tale to tell. Then with one hand on the door they'll be reminded of something else.

Please get out of my house. I love you, but go.

Image Transcription:

Everett and Mrs True are entertaining two guests. One of the guests stands to leave: "Well, True, I guess we'd better be going home."

Everett rises out of his chair, knocking it over: "I'm glad to hear you say that! I'm tired and sleepy and I have to get up early in the morning! For heaven's sake, don't sit down. Good night, GOOD NIGHT!!!!"
