Which are your favorites?I like Zits, Baby Blues, For Better or For Worse, The Boondocks (more for its political commentary than its non-existent humor) and Doonesbury. Especially Doonesbury!!!!! And Calvin and Hobbes, even though its not in the papers anymore. ------------------ "The only devils in this world are those running around in our own hearts.That is where the battle should be fought"-Gandhi IP: Logged |

Garfield is my all-time fave! I also like the Archie comics. My favourite character is Betty. IP: Logged |

definately doonesbury! but as far as real (read: non opinionated political) comics, i like "over the hedge" and totally "peanuts"- they're the bestand i agree randall far side was the best, and tho those look-alikes are humorous, no one replaces gary larson! IP: Logged |

What are they about?Do you have the opportunity to read comics in English in France, or do they translate Garfield into French, or what? ------------------ "The only devils in this world are those running around in our own hearts.That is where the battle should be fought"-Gandhi IP: Logged |

yeah dilbert is very funny, even though i am not part, nor plan to ever be part, of that corporate rat race of hopelessness- we absolutely need a whole cartoon to uplift and make fun of the rediculousness of it all!IP: Logged |

Well I have to admit, I work in that corporate world, I mean it's not awful like in dilbert, but it is a financial corporation, but that is not my life long dream you know, just a good job that pays the bills, I enjoy the work and the people and they reimburse me for college But I do enjoy dilbert! ------------------ Food is the only art that nourishes!
