That was awesome.

Yeah, it sucks. So does Marmaduke.

NOW.

And you, too, Maggie.

When I look at it I can’t even discern what the joke is or if there is one, let alone if its good or bad. In fact, I think all newspaper comic strips are horrendous anymore. This makes me doubt if they were ever funny.

They were. A couple still are.

Has anyone else’s paper been running “classic” Calvin & Hobbes? Mine started rerunning them a couple of weeks ago, I suppose to generate interest in the complete set being released next month. It’s great.

i think the worst comic of all time is crankshaft. it’s NEVER funny. it’s always about elderly people getting alzheimers and young drug addicts. why would you want to read that as you eat your wheaties?

and also, that newish comic “off the beaten path.” they should have just called it the farside.2: not at all funny.

I. HATE. MUTTS.

Where is the fucking joke??! I’ve never once seen a punchline in a Mutts comic.

I like Mutts because of the old-time feel of the comic. Occasionally it’ll make me laugh. But yeah, most of the time it’s not too funny.

Like Ziggy.

Ziggy has heart.

Mutts pander to doe-eyed girls with cuteness.

Heart ain’t getting any chuckles out of me in the morning.

i always thought Peanuts was pretty boring, as a comic.

even though Peanuts was splashed across the front first page in full-clour (on sundays), i always skipped it. unless i was bored, and then i read it. and was mad that i wasted 10 seconds.

“Okay. You sit down to read your paper, and you’re enjoying your entire two-page comic spread, right? And, you know, then there’s the Family Circus - bottom right hand corner, just waiting to suck. And that’s the last thing you read, so- it spoils everything you read before! I hate it, yet I’m uncontrollably drawn to it.”

same with me and Peanuts
