Title: Favorite comics...
Post by: Beth Andrea on April 22, 2013, 11:55:33 PM
I'll start this thread with my own, first choice, fav comic:

Tumbleweeds (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumbleweeds_%28comic_strip%29).

A typical joke, please excuse no images:

Tumbleweeds, standing on a porch. Claude Clay, the town's undertaker, walks into the comic.


Claude: "Hiya Tumbleweed! Notice anything...different?" (poses as if modeling)

Tumbleweed: "Nope."

C: "I got a new suit!"

T: *looks confused*

C: "The old one was deep raven. This one's deep jet." (Remember, this is a black and white comic LOL)

T: *looks bemused*

C: "What's the matter? Color-blind?"

Heh, well *I* thought it was funny.

I love Cathy.  I can so relate to her.

xkcd is also one of my favorites:

9 Chickweed Lane I liked, but the locals had such an outcry that the paper replaced it with...I don't remember, but it made me stop reading the funnies altogether.

btw, I was following the panels back aways, and found this gem; Sven is the big dude, gay as can be, and "Fleurrie" is a (girl) friend who is trying to get him in bed (I don't know why...)

First time Sven goes into her place (to get her a change of clothes):
