I guess they call it “Candorville” (KFS) for a reason. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a cartoonist run a correction and hats off to Darrin Bell for breaking that tradition, though perhaps Clyde reflects a larger part of the population who prefer certainty over accuracy. For my part, I’ve lost faith in a […]
First, this commercial, or anti-commercial, from Joy of Tech. I’m a Windows kind of guy, so I wouldn’t have known this, but Apple is getting into banking, and offering some impressive interest rates. As this article suggests, their 4.15% rate is better than traditional banks are offering and may spark banks to raise their current […]
This Man Overboard is as close to political as I plan to get today, but I’m willing to stand by it. I like the idea that the bigot doesn’t think he’s a bigot, because we’re seeing a lot of that as people nail down their opinions and solidify whatever confirms what they thought before anything […]
You’ve likely already seen Sunday’s Doonesbury (AMS), which has not only been posted by a lot of editorial cartoonists but was featured here by my colleague, DD Degg.

In a […]
Greg Kearney, cartooning for the Atchison (Kansas) Globe, offers a bit of nostalgia and regret for the days when world events happened “out there.” A whole lot has changed, much of it in the past half century but much of that has been a sudden acceleration of a developing trend. One of the things I […]
Over at Vintage Thimble Theater (1936), the gang is just beginning to learn about Eugene the Jeep, who lives in the Fourth Dimension and so, among other things, has access to race results. We’re not sure what else he’s capable of, but, as we’ve seen in the last few days, he’s at least capable of […]
