I knew I was seeing reruns, but I didn't catch on that this was because of the cartoonist's semi-retirement until another strip mentioned it.

So this is probably old news to others, but it was news to me.

Too bad we live in a world where comics that were once funny must be constantly rerun, while the new blood that is funny doesn't seem to be making it in wide syndication. Burying great comics like Pearls, Monty, Sheldon, and Lio, while decades-old punch lines like those of Cathy, Andy Capp, and Peanuts are still (re)running daily, is just...sad.

Good to see FoxTrot is still going, albeit on Sundays only...it's still one of the funniest strips on the papers.


That, and Pearls before Swine...

I wondered why it had vanished from the local rag.

Dilbert is good on occasion.

When will Gary Trudeau retire? I've been offended by his strip so often that I purposely avoid reading it...and would rather not have it in my newspaper at all.

I did not know about this. Sad to hear. I have most of the Large size FoxTrot collections. And I still have the iFruit wallpaper somewhere.
