I'm 70 y/o and still read the comics every day. Peanuts rules, but Beetle Bailey is a very close second.
RIP Mort Walker, you made daily life a little easier to deal with.

R.I.P.

There was one particular Beetle Bailey panel which I wish I had a copy of. Sorry I didn’t commit that panel’s text bubble to memory. First, Sarge says something “Who sent this?”

Next, Plato is standing at attention, and being called on to explain why he wrote “Styxian darkness unrelieved by . . . blah, blah, blah . . . “ (and here I wish I could recite the whole litany). Plato explains,

“I thought it sounded better than, ‘No Report.’"

Rest in Peace Mort Walker and thank you very much for Beetle Bailey and everyone at Camp Swampy.
