[Mayberry Machiavelli]

4. I will NEVER admit to reading "Nancy" or "Family Circus" though.

[yellowdogintexas]

9. I did read Nancy when I was a kid.

Then a new writer took over about 10 years ago and it got funny, in a sassy way like FoxTrot, but then it got revamped agan and became really boring.

[fishwax]

10. ah, the family circus

[Redstone]

5. I read all the comics in the Hartford newspaper.

Every day and on Sundays. If someone published a newspaper that contained all the cartoons available, I'd pay five bucks a day for a subscription. Ten bucks for Sundays.

Redstone

6. Peanuts, Boondocks

Can't really remember the names of the others...

[elshiva]

7. Okay:

Peanuts
Doonesbury
Far Side
Dykes To Watch Out For
Bloom County
Garfield (used to)
Boondocks
Snuffy Smith
Zippy the Pinhead

8. No Calvin and Hobbes?

Calvin and Hobbes
Foxtrot
Dilbert
Far Side
Non sequitor

Bloom County
Opus
The other Bloom County one

And the one with the guy with the psychotic cat and the weird dog (no, not Garfield). I can't remember the name of the strip, nor any of the names of the characters. The cat is currently trying tmake a movie memoir of himself, and wants it to start with a camera shot of "a room full of carcasses". I love that cat!

[XemaSab]

14. Get Fuzzy

I swear, that cat was based on my kitty that passed away in November.

If my kitty could talk, she would have THAT snarky.

18. Man I forgot Gasoline Alley! Didn't the characters age on that cartoon,

like on For Better or Worse?

[GoddessOfGuinness]

19. It was similar in a lot of ways

Though For Better or for Worse tackles more controversial issues. That's a step in the right direction, in my opinion anyway...

Non Sequitor
Doonsbury
Get Fuzzy
