  1. Mr. Ralph Hagen,

    Just wanted to let you know that I thoroughly enjoy “The BARN”. I emailed the Anchorage Daily News for them to please keep it running – they were asking for feedback. I really miss comics like “The Far Side” & “Calvin & Hobbes” & I feel this will be in the same league someday. The strip about the vet clinic with “Yes, we got the test results back & your dog is ____ ugly.” was hilarious! Also love the lamb…the “Baaaaaa”, the German “Baaaaa”…my daughter & I used to say ‘bye’ like that on instant message. I just shared this with her so you will be having another fan, soon! Thanks for giving us “The BARN”! Melinda

  2. There’s a certain cuteness to the characters and the relationships between them could be promising, but, with all due respect for everyone’s opinion, the creator doesn’t seem to be able to to take the strip beyond the “gag a day” aproach, nor is he able to create a cast that anyone would care about. Let the butcher win.
