Can't seem to find the drat thing now. But I remember being genuinely amused by one with Jon trying trick shots with some balled up note papers and a garbage bin while the pets were asleep, then wakes them up to show them only to have somehow knock the bookcase on top of him and miss the shot.

He can make some actual funny ones from time to time.

I don't think he's actually done anything on the comic strip for decades. They farm that poo poo out to a staff of underlings. All of it, the art, the writing, everything.

In fairness they were not married at the time of that strip. But I ask that posters treat me and Garfield with respect.

Garfield without garfield, or with silent garfield, is reliably hilarious. Just one depressed nerd, going insane.

Yeah, I really notice the difference between the Sunday and regular ones now, as well. As a kid, it was all just more Calvin and Hobbes, so I didn't really appreciate the beauty and experimentation he did in the Sunday stuff. I re-read everything every few years, still...makes me feel like an old man that kids today probably won't ever get into it, the way most people today aren't into Krazy Kat or Pogo, even though at one time, they were in everybody's home, and revisiting that work, it's still amazing. It just will never be popular in the same way again, and that's fine, but it just seems a little sad.

At some point Watterson seriously changed the format of his Sunday strips, before they had to follow a specific strip layout with the title and first panel being a literal throwaway gag because some papers wouldn't print them and the number of rows the strip was printed on could change.

Eventually Watterson got sick of that, and made it a solid box, some papers ended up just printing a smaller version of his strip, so he actually lost real estate on the page.

I thought he straight up told papers to give him the space he wanted or don't print his Sunday strips.

Papers could print a version of the strip that's all the art just a smaller version, they couldn't cut out the first couple of panels or mess with the line breaks anymore. For some papers this meant less of the Sunday comics page was taken up by Calvin and Hobbes.
