Luann hits a sad note
Is Aaron Hill really moving away from Luann? What’s with all the guys leaving this strip? I like Luann, but this soap opera goes on forever, especially when every subplot takes a week or two to play out and then may not be revisited for months. I’m still waiting to see what happens with Brad…

Day by Day…or not
Chris Muir’s Day By Day recently had its first interruption after a terrific record of on-time daily postings…and that was due to the hurricane heading for his house! After a few days back at the drawing board, Muir has suspended Day by Day due to family illnesses. According to his final message, several family members…

Cutest story you’ll read in a while!
Her Beau Proposes in ‘Bo’ Comic Strip John Kovaleski asked his sweetheart to proofread a strip that was already online, because his editor claimed it had an error. She didn’t spot any error. Then she refocused on the strip itself and realized that a character who resembled John was proposing to a character resembling her.…

Garfield not by Jim Davis?
Turns out that Garfield isn’t drawn by Jim Davis, but by his employees while he does the marketing. Okay, not the biggest deal in the world. After all, the character models are pretty easy. I guess all of those early 1980s “How to Draw Garfield” pages were just Davis’ attempt to find some fill-in artists.…

Memorial Day
John Cole’s cartoon speaks for us all. Hopefully you will not spend your Memorial Day like this. (Links will not work after Memorial Day, as JWR links change daily.)

Kansasapoppin!
This would be a good month to be in the Kansas City area. Greg Evans of Luann will be doing a book signing at Barnes and Noble on May 27th. And now Scott Kurtz of PvP and Aaron Williams (of Nodwick and the great PS238) will be signing at Pop Culture Comics on May 29th.

You can’t say S.O.B. on the comics page!
That wonderful guy G. Trudeau decided to broaden the horizons of American tots by putting the spelled out curse S.O.B. in today’s Doonesbury in very large print. In the Minneapolis Star Trib the cartoon ran right next to Family Circus. Nice. Makes me wonder if the comics editor even read it. Many other newspapers around…

This is freaking me out
PvP is out on time! Every day I can come in to work, log in to PvP and there is a NEW COMIC STRIP POSTED! It has been years since this happened two days in a row. I have fond memories of the glory days when a new PvP cartoon was there every morning. Oh,…

Great cartoon
Click here fast! I really shouldn’t do this, because I’m just linking to a page that changes the cartoon every day and doesn’t have an archive, so you won’t see the same cartoon if you’re not looking today…but I have to show you this one. Gary Brookins has a nice memorial to Captain Kangaroo. Maybe…

All right Brad!
Brad is my favorite character in Luann, so it’s nice to see something going right for him. At least, in the few seconds before her ex-boyfriend beats him.
