wait im so confused.
so everett is sayinf the former cop always bullied him when he was a cop. then he beat him up and then the dude returned to become a cop again.
initially i thoight this was intended by true like he wanted to be bullied again LMAOAOAO then i realised the dude probably wants to extract revenge for getting beat

On June 28, 1919, the day this was printed, the Treaty of Versailles was signed in France ending the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers of World War I. That's the context for the "hun mine-layer" comment.

ATTENTION EVERREADIES.
You can also find comics on old newspapers that ran it. For example this one comes from the Library of Congress archive of the Ogden Standard:
Through that page you can also find a job as a stenographer with a cement company, or a 3-room apartment for rent ($35!), or "two milch cows" for sale, if you happen to be in Ogden UT in 1920.
I urge you to look for additional comics and post them.

Just hold this pose for a while until the cement sets good!
Ever the artist, Mr. True branches out into mixed media (cement and fool face).
97
Get up out of that so I can take one more punch at you!
Sadly, Everett would need to wait for the Fair Housing Act of 1968 for this landlord’s behavior to be federally illegal. It’s unclear what state Mr. True lives in (besides anger, obviously).

“There’s no hope of my beating any sense into you, but I’ll knock some of the ignorance out of you!”
-Everett True
Sometimes Everett’s angry chastising gets downright poetic. Here he throws out a one-liner worthy of an 80’s action movie, all because of a messy banana eater.
