What comic strips do you read out of the newspaper?

None these days. But back in the day; Blondie, Garfield, Family Circus, Andy Kapp, and others.

I tried my hand at comic strips as well. But nothing that would ever make it into a respectable newspaper.

The LA Times really cut down their comics section. There are so few printed now. I read; Foxtrot, Drabble, Skylock Fox, Zits, Baby Blues, and Pearls Before Swine.

I've always liked Garfield and Peanuts the most.

Peanuts is a good one. Also B.C. And Dennis The Menace. I hope comic strips stay relevant as the years pass. I would hate to see it die as an art.

Today's Garfield comic strip is pretty hilarious.

Poor Jon.

This month marks Garfield's 35th birthday. The first Garfield comic strip was on June 19, 1978. You should've seen how fat he was at that time!

Happy B-Day Garfield! Go have a lasagna.

It's your big day, big man.

I have a reprint of that first comic in one of those Garfield comic collections books. I remember when I read it as a kid. I tried to draw the "old Garfield". The one thing I noticed about them was their small eyes.
