Mr. Squishy posted:I like the look of OBH. Is this the calarts style? Calvin Arts, his family called him, but he was just Cal to his friends. But seriously, in the 20s, the grousing would be about the low-class gibberish you get from the newspaper strips compared to the refined palate of the magazine cartoonists.   (Life, September 10, 1925 and September 7, 1922) Either that or how high-speed newsprint is ruining the industry.

Big Nate Year 1 (Feb 28 - Mar 1, 1991)  For some reason I'm irrationally angry that he keeps breaking the 180 degree rule. Also there's the foot thing again. What is he even going for with that pose? Old School Peanuts (Jun 23, 1953)  Wait. Is that an actual phrase!? *googles* Apparently it is. Calvin and Hobbes (Dec 11-12, 1990)   Blind Alley  Support Adam's Patreon here.

Scary Gary is one of those comics that I enjoy, but don't usually think it's amazing or anything. This one though, this one is fantastic. Changing my name to BOOB SAP SIMP

I used to scroll past but the little grooves on my scrollwheel have been ground smooth and ungrippable after scrolling past the millionth oh man wasn't the past wacky and different and also really racist strip I mean you could at least timg which doesn't really help when you're on a tablet but would still be worth the effort Good on you for making the effort to post all of these, it's appreciated but that is a pretty big wall of strips that are posted

It sounds like the issue isn't making the sweet, delicious (if sometimes questionable) content go away, it's the whole "holy poo poo, dropping it all in a single post creates a monster" thing. No harm in pointing that out. the length just got away from me. So let's try something I've been looking for an excuse to do anyway and put the stuff I have to dig for (everything below OOW) into a late-day post, with everything else (the "easy" part) in the morning. If nothing else, it might make things a little more manageable to navigate. Anyway, it's still morning here, so HEY KIDS! COMICS! Mutts  Sally Forth  Peanuts (April 12, 1975)  Funky Winkerbean  Crankshaft  Mutt and Jeff  Rip Haywire  Thimble Theater (November 9, 1938)  Out Our Way (July 18-20, 1938)    Catch you after dinner, and as always, thank you for your support.

It does make it easier on people who want to quote just one strip out of the comic wall.  An old joke, but I don't mind it. At least it's not bitching about Common Core.
