Do we need a new writeup for the new thread? I can do a writeup of things, but also lazy.

Isn't that lady also the time traveler or am I mistaking her for someone else entirely?

She is. Now have some lazy writeups.

Family Circus, originally created by Bill Keane in 1960, and currently drawn and written by his son Jeff Keane (whom Jeffy is named after) since his death in 2011. Almost always a single panel, except on sundays. Following the perpetual state of never aging life of the Keane family. It's usually bland, but there are some good moments. Like the time Billy wanted to dress up as a Warhammer 40k dude for Halloween.


Rose is Rose, created by Pat Brady in 1984, now drawn by a Don Wimmer since 2004. It started out with a little bit of a weird weight gain thing with Brady, but that was reigned in by the time Wimmer took over the art. It's extremely, EXTREMELY saccharine, to the point of comic hearts and bubbles and the like. And also pretty heavily Christian influenced.


One Big Happy, created by Rick Detorie and launced late in 1988. It's a bit more realistic family life, althought Detorie has started to show his aging boomer side, and tut-tutting "outlandish" looks and views. It was good, but it's started to slip by thread standards.


Foob as it's colloquially known, better known as For Better or For Worse. Started by Lynn Johnston in 1979, it ended officially near the end of 2008. And then went into reruns July 11, 2010. Rewritten/redrawn reruns. Which follow the original storyline. Lynn is, an odd one. Others can tell her stories better than I. The story actually did have the characters age though. And it had actual deaths.


Compu-Toon, to directly quote the entire wiki article, "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. Since April 23, 2001, it has appeared online via gocomics." Boyce writes an allegedly technology focused strip, and is extremely befuddled by technology. The jokes are usually baffling at best. But sometimes Boyce can actually be surprisingly cogent.


Bizarro, Dan Piraro, 1985. Apparently a friend and colleague took over just last year and none of us ever realized, a guy named Wayne (Wayno) Howath. Piraro still does the Sunday strips. Another single panel comic, that sometimes chastises hipsters and "millenials" while Piraro, well, just look at his picture in his Wiki article.


And finally, Dilbert is the last of my regular dailies. By Scott Adams, 1989. It started out with reader submissions about stories of working in an office. It's vaguely kept up with the times, in that office uniforms have changed. But Adams is. He believes in "The Secret" and is a lovely right wing supporter while claiming to not be. It's certainly a comic.

Millennials grew up before smartphones existed, Scott. You're thinking of Gen Z.

You can't argue with a Master Debater, Tiggum. You know that. He'll just link to his blog post about "common criticisms of Dilbert" even though it's entirely irrelevant. Because he's the Master Debater, you see. :jerkbag:

Have I? Tbf I'm not looking closely. The last few days I was running short on time and didn't take a close look. Especially with Dilbro being Dilbro.
