What is your favorite comic strip?
Mine is Garfield. That cat cracks me up.

The Far Side for me, also. I just love off-the-wall humor.

Even though it is no longer in production, I loved "Calvin and Hobbes". I also like "Dilbert".

Berke Breathed ("Bloom County") will begin a half-page, Sunday-only feature titled "Opus" later this year, in syndication through the Washington Post. This is great news, as it's been a long time since he quit writing "Outland"...
Current favorite has to be "Fox Trot".

Garfield, Peanuts, Dilbert, For Better or Worse, Sally Forth, Funky Winkerbean, Arlo & Janis, and Rose is Rose. Oh, and the Family Circus (it's kind of like my house).

Most definitely The Far Side. Man, I miss that strip!
Best non-cow strip: Man eating in a cafeteria in hell and exclaiming, "MAN, THESE PLATES ARE HOT!"
Scott... come back!

Are people serious about loving Garfield and Ziggy. They are pleasant enough, but not very creative. Garfield's creator has been telling the same old jokes for 20 years.
I miss Bloom County (and Academia Waltz that Breathed did at University of Texas), Calvin and Hobbes, the Far Side, and Eyebeam (also a University of Texas comic strip).

I love For Better or For Worse. They deal with REAL subjects in a tasteful and usually funny way. And I like the fact that the "kids" get older as the story goes forward.

Say, EGB, didja know that many comic strips can be found online at the aptly named www.comics.com site? Over The Hedge is amongst the offerings. Also there is a veritable plethora of strips at www.chron.com. The Houston Chronicle doesn't actually publish all of these in its paper format, but it has by far the best comic section of any paper I've ever read. (Of course, I also find most other newspapers in other cities to be quite lame. The ones in Cleveland and Philly stink.) I likes Get Fuzzy, Crankshaft, Mr. Boffo, Non Sequitur, Monty, and Real Life Adventures. And I suppose Doonesbury, and sometimes The Boondocks. I find Rose Is Rose to be vaguely unsettling, as if transdimensional demons are trying to send encoded messages through the strip. But that might just be me. Oh, and that crazy Marmaduke! Is there no end to the wacky hijinks he brings about?

Yay! I can have OTH sent to me by email! Too bad they don't have Mutts, I'd be all set.
Random, are you sure you can't come up to Dallas for the DACA conference at which Lucy G will be speaking this month??????

Dilbert is the greatest! Does anyone else think that Scott Adams has a spy camera in their office? I cut out my favorites and have them under my deskpad in my office.
