Back in 2020, people complained about the poorly translated Russian. This made me a little sad, because I had the Russian stuff translated by an actual Russian person I happen to know. Talk about high expectations. Apparently there are more than one versions of Russian, idk.

For the younglings, who understandably might not know the reference: movie director Stanley Kubrick was supposedly involved in making/faking the Apollo 11 moon landing. (for the record: I do NOT believe any of this stuff.)

    I do like the joke that the moon landing was faked by Stanley Kubrick, but that he was such an auteur that he would only do it if he could film on location. :)

    Fun comic!

      It is a good one. It was at least amusing.

      But it would probably go better if there weren’t 20 other jokes sharing the same 4 panels.

      I came here to say this. Brilliant.

    Love it, congrats on 4 years! It’s awesome to have at least one creator posting their own comics directly on Lemmy :)

    I don’t know any russian at all, but its the first time I’ve seen this and it got a chortle out of me. I think that’s three now, but there’s surely tons of your older stuff I haven’t seen.

    Don’t worry I won’t complain about the Russian. Instead I will complain about the Russians, especially the government. I don’t speak their awful-sounding language though, so that’s not a problem.
