    RIP Bil Keane. One of the only comics I'd still look at.

    You're fucking crazy. Garfield retired that trophy long, long ago.

    Garfield is funnier than Family Circus and Cathy combined, which means not at all...

    Zero times zero is still zero. Unless Chuck Norris is 'rithmeticing.

    I appreciate what Bil did moreso than the Cathys and Garfields of the world.

    He didn't pimp the fuck out of it, ala Garfield (except when the Family Circus were the official mascots of KOA Kampgrounds), and, it's much harder, IMO to do one single panel and make it tight, vs doing a three or four panel strip that continues for a bit, giving you a chance to have part of it slip in quality.

    You need to Google "Flintstones fuck" on Google images. You'll piss yourself.

    Prickly City. The guy tries to be slick, and he's got nothing.

    Nice understated tribute in the "Lio" strip.

    I enjoyed Family Circus and wish him RIP.

    Went to the Charles Schultz Museum this weekend and forgot all the warm joy that Charlie Brown and the gang brought to me when I was younger.

    Cartoons are wonderful. Too bad they're lost somewhat in today's Internet age.
