The New Yorker, The Lockhorns, Flash Gordon, Phil Miller, Jim Steranko. Yaakov Kirschen, and John Donohue are in the spotlight. Since Mike ends with a video I’ll start with a video. N.Y.C.’s ROOF Studio partnered with Le Truc, the creative collective within Publicis Groupe, alongside The Condé Nast Creative Marketing Team and Human, to create […]
So to catch everyone up, GoComics apparently now updates at 3 a.m. Eastern Time, which likely only effects me, Arcamax quit updating a whole slew of political cartoons about a month ago, and Counterpoint now has a new format for its subscribers that includes more comics more often. And I’m still here every day. Andy […]
No April Fool’s gags as such today, given how predictable they are each year, but Dave Coverly has managed to stumble onto a case of “It’s funny, ’cause it’s true,” which will do just as well.

Now The Cleveland Plain Dealer/cleveland.com has given their readers […]
Adam@Home (AMS) is in an optimistic mood as 2024 has launched, though not quite as much in a hurry as his wife, who I suspect is only trying to encourage him, given that they’ve been married long enough to have a couple of kids on the brink of middle school. After all, encouraging him has […]
Zits (KFS) is starting a story arc that could mark a shift in the comic, with Jeremy and presumably his friends beginning the college search. The strip has a glacial pace, but that’s better than no pace at all, and, over the years, we’ve seen the kids get drivers licenses and cars and even a […]
