The Herald in Monterey CA announces their big funny pages change up
Skip to commentsThe Herald (Monterey, CA) has done a major shake up on their funnies page. They recently polled their readers to find out which features were the most popular and which ones should be dropped.
Results:
The top three favorites also were clear-cut: “For Better or For Worse,” “Zits” and “Blondie.”
From there, the voting got a little tighter, but this is how it’s all shaken out:
To the daily lineup, we’re adding: “Pickles,” “Baby Blues,” “Bizarro,” “Mutts,” “Boondocks” and “Baldo.” On Sundays, we’re adding those plus “The Other Coast,” “Pearls Before Swine” and “Opus” — the strip about a penguin that was the clear favorite among new options. (Some would like to see “Opus” added daily, but it’s only offered once a week.)
To make room, we’re dropping the bottom-five finishers mentioned above as well as “Close to Home,” “Cathy,” “Doonesbury,” “Frank & Ernest” and “Luann.”
The whole article is an interesting read on the comic poll survey results.
