Worst comic strip ever.

I mean this was pretty openly horribly sexist. It was about a woman who cared about dresses and food and dieting.

good riddance.

Political cartoons have their own separate category of awful.

Ranking the relative shittiness of newspaper comics isn't so much an exercise in futility as it is the futility that all those previous exercises in futility are meant to prepare you for; the all-out futile brawl on a distant futile planet where your training in 100x futile-gravity finally allows you to go Super Futile Z. And also develop telepathy.

Basically, you have Calvin and Hobbes, The Far Side, FoxTrot, and Bloom County, and then everyone else has been dicking around for the past century.

I'll allow that there's a certain joy and purity to watching Dick Tracy throw some asshole off a roof.

Shame FoxTrot is now only on Sundays...

Dilbert was good like four years ago.

And for three of those, the author/artist decided to call it quits before he became shitty...coincidence?
