I love Ham Shears and The Creeps, and I am glad to see them back.

That's not to discount anyone else's work in posting; I'm just happy to see those strips back - I haven't read either from the beginning, as it were.

I love both Ham Shears and The Creeps, so it's good seeing them being posted again. I saw the former from the start, but not the latter, I don't think.

Less so of the strips that have been posted so far, but The Creeps get into a rhythm that sometimes reminds me too much of my relationship with my significant other

1. Random colors from the garage swirled together? That sure won't look like rear end! I can see why she does so well in her bullshit art class!
2. Way to close a paint can, whoever closed that paint can.
3. Paint is loving heavy and she's got five cans of it. If they're all as full as the green one that's a good 50+ pounds that she's carrying like it's nothing.

That's assuming they are all full which is probably a bad assumption. It's probably like half that, which is not nothing, but isn't that big a deal to carry 100 feet or whatever.

It's interesting the way phrases change. "Friday-faced", a couple hundred years ago, meant someone who looked sad or glum, because Friday (the day Jesus was supposedly crucified) was a solemn day of remembrance and remorse. Thus, no eating meat on Fridays etc.

Garfield hates Jesus, got it.

Bud Grace announced on his website that he's retiring "Piranha Club". Last strip will run on February 3.

I'll actually miss it. I was an avid reader of the strip as a kid.

When they passed out body parts in the comics today, I got Cathy's nose and Dick Tracy's private parts.

You say that, but things can always get worse. Maybe he's retiring Piranha Club because he's been given Nancy?

Me too. Currently it's poo poo but that's not news to anyone. Not that it was always great but it did at least have some decent arcs way back.

I want someone to take over, do a really good, but brief run. Maybe one, two years most. Just so that the last Nancy isn't some Gilchrist poo poo.
