Poison Ivy Gulch is a gag Western webcomic created by Max West and launched on June 1, 2020. The setting is in a ramshackle town somewhere in the American frontier of the 1870s. The eponymous town is home to Lotta Doler, a Professional Gambler plus her Kid Sidekick Ace and a load of other Western Characters.Some (but not all) of the other characters are: Samuel Sidewinder, the town's mayor Marshal Art, the local lawman Herman the German, the hangman Rigg R. Mortis, mortician Pickaxe Paul, a local prospectorHas a Characters page under construction. A first book collection, Poison Ivy Gulch Saddles Up, was released in 2022.Updated on Mondays and Wednesdays with the sporadic Sunday Strip, the format is a gag per day in black and white panels much like Newspaper Comics.Read it here. |

comment |
Ms. Fanservice: Lotta. Both her everyday dress and gambling dress show off her cleavage. Saloon girl Lorraine Hester wears a low cut dress too, with cleavage visible and a bustle dress showing off an Impossible Hourglass Figure. Fellow saloon girl Lullabelle counts too. |

comment |
Hypocritical Humor: Played straight when a tough guy with Perma-Stubble barks at a bookseller to give him a book on manners, insulting him all the while. |

Sweet Tooth: Ace loves sweets as he has been shown blowing bubble gum bubbles and remarks about having to choose between cherry and custard pie at a cafe. Justified as he is a child. |

Stock Food Depictions: Beer appears sometimes in strips set in the saloon. It is always shown in a glass mug with foam on top; color comic strips show it as being gold colored. Bubble gum appears too in spite of being Anachronism Stew. Color strips show it as being pink. |

Pyramid Power: Parodied when Mayor Sidewinder asks the local undertaker Rigg R. Mortis to build a pyramid for him. The undertaker taunts the mayor if he wants it built to scale as the mayor is short. |

Mayor Pain: Mayor Sidewinder is the incompetent type and he comes off as a Sleazy Politician too. Examples of his incompetence are renaming a street rather than clean its stench and giving a non-answer to a citizen's question. |

Expospeak Gag: A laywer uses the term "acetylsalicylic acid". When the judge clarifies that as being aspirin, the laywer says he can never remember that word. While flirting with Wilbur and Nimrod, saloon girls Lorraine and Lullabelle offer them libations. They say they'd rather have drinks instead. |

Comically Missing the Point: A frequent device used for gags. A specific example includes a color Sunday Strip where a prostitute asks a passing cowboy if he wants to fool around. The cowboy, not understanding she means sex, asks her what she wants to fool around doing. |
