Mark Trail: Buzz, will you take this chip and get the pictures printed?

One of the oddly appealing* things about Mark Trail is that it has refused to change with the times. Everything about it is proudly old-fashioned, from the black-and-white morality to the art to the endless stream of exclamation points! It's the kind of comic you can imagine pluggers enjoying without the least bit of irony.

So today's comic, in which Jack Elrod reveals that Mark owns a--gasp!--digital camera, is more than a little surprising. Next thing you know, Mark will be texting on his smart phone while Segwaying his way around Lost Forest.

*No, really!
