New comic pickups: Cul de Sac, Big Nate Freshly Squeezed

The comic page landscape is still unsettled after Cathy Guisewite’s retirement. Here a few more reports on who’s running what:

» The Mansfield News Journal (OH) has picked up Cul de Sac

» Big Nate and Freshly Squeezed are picked up by the Appeal Democrat (CA)

» Richmond Times-Dispatch (VA) is now running Freshly Squeezed in trial

UPDATE: The Mail Tribune has picked up the daily Big Nate and Arlo and Janis. Dropped comics: Hi and Lois and Beetle Bailey.

  1. Citrus County (Fla.) Chronicle replaced “Cathy” with “Pickles” from what I’ve read.

    Daytona Beach News-Journal replaced “Cathy” with “Big Nate”.

    Somerset (Pa.) Daily American replaced “Cathy” with “Stone Soup”.

  2. Diamond Lil is still thriving in the former Cathy location in the Chicago Tribune.

    By the way, I wonder if any papers that carried the now ceased as of Halloween comic strips Cleats and My Cage found good replacements…
