I’m behind on this one. Bill Amend’s FoxTrot comic went to Sundays-only on December 31st. I admit that I haven’t read FoxTrot on a daily basis since I moved out of my parents’ house back in 2000 (they get a daily paper), and really the last time I was a big reader was probably in ‘98 while I still worked at a book store, but it’s always been a good strip.

Anyone know if any of the kids actually got around to graduating high school?

Not quite safe for work, The Last Panel adds one final panel to the end of each of a bunch of For Better or For Worse strips…. freaky but hilarious

What’s funny about today’s Get Fuzzy isn’t that Satchel’s about to eat something odd-looking that he found in the street - that’s semi-normal dog behavior. What’s funny is that he brought it home and set it on a plate on the counter in order to eat it.
