Guess I'll get to reposting for today. Do we need a new write up for strips this time or no? I don't think we need them.

Tina's Groove started in 2002, follows the life of titular character, Tina. A waitress at a restaurant of indeterminate type. Along with her boyfriend, Gus, coworkers Suzanne & Monica, owner/boss Rob, and Carlos, the chef. It's sorta-realistic in it's depiction of working in the restaurant industry, but in a comic way obviously. To many times have I seen similar things. :gonk:


Family Circus is a zombie strip by Jeffy Keane, the current artist and author. Created by father Billy in 1960. It started out interesting, but has become preachy and saccharine.


Rose is Rose by Pat Brady, started in 1984. It follows the life of Rose & Jimbo Gumbo, their son, Pasquale, and pet Siamese, Peekaboo. This one is even more saccharine than Family Circus, rainbows and sunshine vomit a prevalent feature. Cousin Clem, a greedy little poo poo, is also regularly featured. And Pasquale's guardian angel. So it's kinda preachy too.

I started posting it because it was something I could only read when visiting my grandparents.

One Big Happy :911: 1988, by artist & author Rick Detorie. A good children comic that's actually realistic.


Mother Goose & Grimm started by Mike Peters in 1984, also featured in the Political Cartoons thread for his editorial strips. Aside from the titular Mother Goose & Grimm, we have Ralph the Terrier, and Atilla the Cat.


Foob ran from September, 1979, through August 31, 2008. Lynn Johnston then went on hiatus until July 11, 2010, with the strip basically starting over as re-runs. Johnston used to change some of the art, or add new strips, but it's just been in re-runs for at least a year since her syndicate essentially told her "stop changing stuff and keep collecting your royalties."

It also spawned a smilie I can't find.

Compu-Toon just...is. To quote Wikipedia
[qoute]Compu-toon is a comic strip by Charles Boyce. Compu-toon was launched in 1994 through Tribune Media Services. At its height, the comic strip ran in about 150 newspapers worldwide from 1994 to 1997 in print form.[/quote]
Boyce rarely makes sense. And when he does, the thread tends to :psyduck: over it. Sometimes he's even funny!


Bizarro has been running since 1985, by Dan Piraro. It's hit or miss, but usually decent at least. And it can go way off entirely and be racist out of nowhere.


Dilbert is Dilbert, created by artist Scott Adams. It can be hit or miss, much better if Wally is involved. It also spawned one of the greatest edits of internet history, the very :nws::nms: Dilbert Hole

The father's Bil. I believe Billy is most directly based on Glen, but the only child in the strips who shares a name with one of Bil's real-life children is Jeffy.

Pff, semantics. :colbert:
