Mark Trail, 12/18/24

Mark Trail can of course never be an anti-hunting strip per se, but it has always adhered to a strict moral code when it comes to the sport: for instance, it's highly dishonorable to stage a canned hunt of a little girl's pet deer (which is named "Lucky") as part of an ill-conceived plan to run for governor, or to buy a rare white lion specifically to hunt it. But this is Nu-Look Mark Trail and we need to move on to modern hunting crimes, like hunting a deer that's famous on TikTok specifically to gain clout on TikTok. They don't say TikTok, but people definitely mean TikTok when they say "social media" generically right now, the same way everyone who said "social media" generically in 2011 meant Facebook and everyone who said it in 2018 meant Twitter. Anyway, will vengeful TikTok teens punch Cherry's sister's bad boyfriend out before Mark can get to him? More on this story as it develops.
