Far Side stock characters escaping from a jar.
Summary While The Far Side didn't have recurring characters or ongoing storylines in the traditional sense, Gary Larson's infamous comic was highly iterative in its own way – perhaps best illustrated by one dark visual gag that repeated in several different forms over the course of The Far Side's time in publication.
1 The Far Side's First "Kill Marking" Joke Came At Snoopy's Expense First Published: July 18, 1980 Gary Larson extrapolated the "kill marking" punchline of this strip from a convergence of his knowledge of real-world history and his idiosyncratic perspective on Peanuts' classic Red Baron reference. The key thing to note, though, is the fact that Gary Larson extrapolated the "kill marking" punchline of this strip from a convergence of his knowledge of real-world history and his idiosyncratic perspective on Peanuts' classic Red Baron reference. Moving forward, Larson would find different contexts in which to use this joke again, making it equal parts more absurd and grim with each passing iteration of the joke.
