Does anyone like comic strips? Are they for kids or adults? Do they tickle your funny bone? Which one do you like most?

I don't read any in the papers anymore, since the company stopped delivering papers every day, but I still read Calvin and Hobbes and Foxtrot from the books. Reply #21. Feb 12 13, 8:22 AM |

Crankshaft, Garfield, Peanuts, Hagar the Horrible, and Beetle Bailey are my favorites. I read all the comics in the paper at work. If I'm off I look up the favorites online. Reply #22. Feb 12 13, 10:48 AM |

Peanuts, Blondie, Hagar the Horrible, For Better Or Worse, Beetle Bailey, Garfield, Andy Capp, Barney Google & Snuffy Smith, Fred Bassett, The Lockhorns. There are more but I can't think of them all right now! We got the Sunday paper every week for years so I grew up reading all of these comic strips. I still love them! :) Reply #27.

Pibgorn by Brooke McEldowney is my current favorite, for the artwork rather than the humor, although he sometimes makes me laugh. He's finally started on a new original story; I think he was doing Romeo & Juliet for more than a year, got a bit tiresome. Of the rest of the ones I read, I think only three are still being produced by the originator of the comic strip: Dilbert, Garfield, and Zits. The rest I believe are either repeats or someone else is doing them: Peanuts, Calvin & Hobbes, BC, Barney Google, Beetle Bailey, Blondie, Hagar the Horrible, Hi & Lois, Wizard of Id, Frank & Ernest, Herman. Bunny Hoest does the Lockhorns, taking over from her husband. She still gets in a few good jokes from time to time. (Leroy to friends: "Loretta's ball veered off to the right and landed in the woods somewhere. Unfortunately, we were bowling.") I used to read Shoe, but the new ones are pitiful. I think Doonesbury peaked in the late 70s; I quit reading it around 1995 or so. Extinct strips: Bloom County and sequels; Far Side; Dunagin's People; Tumbleweeds. It's a sad commentary on the state of modern comic writing that Peanuts reruns are the masthead strips of many newspaper comics pages. Reply #30. Nov 28 14, 3:48 PM |

The BEST one on this planet, Pearls Before Swine! The rest pale in comparison. Reply #31. Dec 10 14, 2:13 AM |

I have been a follower for many years of Dick Tracy. The local newspapers near me stopped running it so I have to read it online (and do) every morning. I was a huge fan of The Far Side. I miss it still:( Reply #32. Nov 05 15, 5:42 AM |

I read the comics every day. Sadly, the newspaper seems to be shrinking. K Reply #33. May 30 17, 12:57 PM |

Growing up I loved Blondie, Li'l Abner, Dick Tracy, Little Lulu, Smilin' Jack and many more. More recently. The Far Side, Calvin and Hobbes, Garfield and most of all, still Blondie. Reply #36. May 17 18, 10:37 PM |

"Calvin and Hobbes," of course, but my fave of all time is "Mutts" by Patrick McConnell. The drawings and sentiments are priceless. It's time to leave now and make a "chicky pot pie" and find my "little pink sock".....Anne Reply #37. May 22 18, 5:54 PM |
