This thread is quite flammable now.

PBF isn't in the newspaper, and is only funny maybe like 10% of the time.
Those 10% are arguable, but the Guardian or the Observer has PBF.

Dunno, I've found it the most consistently funny comic around with both great artistic work and great puns/ideas. Only twice or so have I not became amused by it.
But yeah, it's not a newspaper comic.

The last good comics were Bloom County and C&H. And no it's not because I'm old, it's because the new comics fucking suck.
Don't get me started on this shit where Hagar the Horrible, Hi & Lois, and Beetle Baily continue a strong run despite the original writers and illustrators being dead for hundreds of years.
Oh yeah, and Jonny Hart can fuck off too.

I share your contempt of today's comics, AR. With that I have the solution to your problem with 3 little words.
Pearls Before Swine.
Best comic, ever!
Dont know bout the "best ever" but I love it, you are not alone.

I very much get solace from my old Calvin and Hobbes treasuries. My Far Side ones, too. As for anything current, I've been looking to Joe Mathlete for guidance: (

That crazy Marmaduke- I never could have guessed the real story.
Joe does his thing with Ziggy too: (

I can't believe the cloned meat plot bothers you more than WHATEVER THE FUCK THAT BLACK AND WHITE THING IS SUPPOSED TO BE
Even in comics I expect a minimum artistic standard and that thing just pees all over it

But, AR Master, if the newspapers didn't print any terrible comics, what would we have to talk about?
