[Huehuetenango]

I don't have a fave character so much as I like certain artists' styles or certain writers' take on a character. I like Bruce Timm's look for Batgirl (Timm, along with Paul Dini, produced and created the look of the Batman, Superman, Batman Beyond, and Justice League cartoons).

[Widdykats]

That's way kewl......:D Reminds me of Daria which I liked.

[Sandman2012]

Also, Spder Jerusalem from Warren Ellis's Transmetropolitan. Think Hunter S. Thompson in a cyberpunk setting.

Thinking of Hunter, in and of itself, makes one want to go on a four day tear.......my head just spun off!:eek:

YESHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

[Xerxes]

Get fuzzy is the best new printed syndicated cartoon in a long while-not to mention that it is one of the best drawn syndicated cartoons in ages. The style of cartoons has always been more and more minimal, which is OK, but it is nice to see something with depth, quality, and humor.

On the otherside, I can't get over Penny Arcade- the snide, over confident sneer on all the character's faces makes me think of all the 4th graders down my street who's pants are on their ankles who's daily discussions sound like gangsta rap.

I am a big fan of Max Cannon's Red Meat- especcially the "god" character. :)

Comic book favs: The Tick! (yeah, I'm a sucker for mighty blue justice)

Love those classics:
Calvin and Hobbes
Bloom County
Farside

[golferboy32531]

I have no outright favorite, as I value certain characters as my favorites within a series, BUUUUTTT....

I grew up with Calvin and Hobbes. I just wish that I had that much fun in my backyard. *sigh* flat...durn...pine...woods...

[Aquila Blue]

For all those Calvin and Hobbes fans out there (myself included), you can still see the strips online at:

Calvin and Hobbes (http://www.ucomics.com/calvinandhobbes/)

ucomics has been posting the strips daily, so catch up on all your favs, unless, like me, you own all the books :p

[Shenlong]

Although Sonic was cool, and I favored Knuckles a litle higher than Sonic, you can't really ignore Dr. Eggman (Robotnik) if you're fan of the Sonic Comics! But here's one taken from the Sonic Adventure game series.

http://www.mpog.com/feature/bosses/eggman.jpg

I started collecting the Sonic The Hedgehog comic series made by Archie Comics around issue #30-40-something up to issue #80-something, and skipped for a few months (Or a year or 2, I think). Lost interest, but when Sonic Adventure 2 came out for the SD, I started collecting back around issue #95, and continued up until issue #105(?) but missed out in getting #100. I don't know, I was on and off in the series, but I got alot of the Super Sonic Specials, all of the Tails Mini Series, and most of Knuckles' Mini Series. Thanks to this topic, I think I might start getting involved with it all over again...

But aside from the Sonic comics, I'm also into the Love Hina manga. Naru and Shinobu are my top 2 favorite characters, but I'm a big fan of Motoko! Here's one from the manga series with her in the back, but I can't remember who that other person is...If who's into the LH manga knows who it is, 411 me...It's driving me nuts! :cry:

One of my favorites along with Garfield and Far Side

[Sandman2012]

How could I have forgotten Tank Girl?!?

http://www.twisted.org.uk/tg/pix/tanky.gif

[Aquila Blue]

I forgot to mention before, but for anyone who is a Jim Davis (the guy who draws Garfield) fan, he also has another strip which he does along with another artist. It's called Mr. Potato Head (http://www.ucomics.com/mrpotatohead/) I personally am still undecided about it. I'm not a regular reader (ie check it daily) but I will occassionally plow through a pile of them.

You're welcome :) Some of the potato ones are not bad. I liked today's (the unwrapping with eyes one)

Another strip that is good at times is Heart of the City (http://www.ucomics.com/heartofthecity/)

if peoepl see chalk outline they think someone got killed of right there.. its like staring at an accident.. u dont wanan see it but u cant take yer eyes off it?

[zootm]

i suspect the drivers slow down because they realise how easy it must be to accidentally knock someone down on the road. people tend to go waaaaay too fast on these things.

[Widdykats]

uhhhh, Thanks duet! That remark about you was sarcastic ,like you're just a kitten Now! :rolleyes:

Calvin and Hobbes is great, I definately recommend it. I have a particular strip that has graced my lab bench for about as long as I've had a lab bench. It's not in the current archieves on that site, but maybe I'll scan it in from my books :)

Actually, I'm glad that Bill Watterson decided to end the strip when he thought it was the right time. There are too many strips these days which were once good, but had declined when the artist has just kept going and going, recycling the same jokes. Sure it's a shame that Bill Watterson stopped when he did, but I still prefer it to having stale and repetative strips.

Berkely Breathed comes to mind.....

Calvin and Hobbes all the way! :up::up::up: I must say Baby Blues is giving it a run for it's money tho! They are both aswesome scripts. FarSide is great also.

I thought that Bloom County had a good run, but when he brought about the strip Outland, that was just repetative.

actually if you liked Bloom County, then you might also enjoy Liberty Meadows (http://www.comics.com/creators/liberty/index.html). This strip has just recently ended as well, but the website is running them daily over again.

Liberty Meadows is also being re-printed in comic book format by Image Comics. Inexpensive way to collect 'em. Not as funny as Bloom county, but Frank Cho is a great artist.

do you know what happened in the storyline after the strip ended. I haven't bought the comic book continuation. Does Brandy end up marrying Roger? or does Frank manage to stop it?

Is it just me or is Dilbert starting to run out of gas as well...

Sorry, but I haven't read the full series' continuity. Cho's site (http://www.libertymeadows.com/index.html) reprints a lot of the strips, and has a lot of other interesting things for LM fans.

[Aquila Blue]

Originally posted by Xerxes

Have you seen the Dilbert cartoon? I'm not sure about it. I don't think the strips translate particularly well to animated format.

There is a semi-recent Dilbert strip that absolutely cracked me up, about Dilbert and Alice getting stuck behind a pair of slow-moving large ladies. I liked it so much because I can't stand getting stuck behind slow walkers when I'm out.

Thanks for the LM tip Sandman!

[Sandman2012]

No prob. Also, any comic store will have a copy of the LM comic, and Cho has ordering info on the back page for all his stuff in various formats if you're interested.

Definitely not. For sure, the voices for the characters don't seem right.

[Sandman2012]

I just saw Liberty Meadows #29 in the store. It has a great Christmas cover, (http://www.libertymeadows.com/covers/LM29cov.jpg) though I'm a bit late posting it on Dec. 31st. :(
