We didn’t/don’t get TinTin anywhere in the States. Though I did enjoy the film from a few years back.

Available at both Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
The movie took too much creative license ?

I find the Far Side comics to be a little bit vulgar.

Family Circus might be more your speed.

 

[Aomalley27]

Ack!!!!!

More proof that funny women are few and far between

Great way to follow along, though some strips like Dick Tracy have a HUGE amount of these omnibus (I believe they’re approaching volume 30!). Nicely collected in hardcover though, and they contain two full stories (or a few months of strips) Neat to see the progression of a strip, how art changes, influences of different writers etc.

A few other classics I love include Thimble Theatre, Steve Canyon, Bringing Up Father, and Peanuts

I always found Henry, Nancy & Sluggo, and The Little King exquisitely tedious.

My wife grew up in rural Missouri, hours from any city. Her dad ardently subscribed to the St. Louis Post Dispatch, and she remembers it had color comics ... every single day of the week!! She and her older cousin would come home from school and read the comics while having a snack. I read the Sunday color comics in the Chicago Tribune growing up, and read the daily black and white comics on into adulthood in various papers. Some I always enjoyed, like Dilbert. Some seemed a little sappy like Little Orphan Annie and Dondi. Dick Tracy was fun to read but seemed pretty moralistic. Dennis the Menace was annoying but a daily must. And beyond comics, there was Dear Abby, about which be sure to hear the song by John Prine by the same title, which captures the sameness and fun of that column. All of his "answers" are the same refrain, which always work.

Steve Canyon, Milton Caniff’s successor to Terry and the Pirates?

I do like that one. The children might be rambunctious but they are not malicious.

Cathy reminds me of my 2nd ex-wife's 2nd cousin Mildred. I believe she was happy we divorced.
