Jason Shiga’s outstanding “interactive” time-warping comic, reimagined as an iPad app. Highly recommended.
The Scott Pilgrim books for reading on your iPhone or iPad. I’d downloaded some pirate CBRs into Comic Zeal, so it’s nice to actually pay for them!
A collection of first panels from the annuals of British girls comics such as Bunty and Mandy. All the ponies, photo stories, and boarding school hijinx you could ever hope for.
FoxTrot strip is going Sundays-only after the end of this year. This makes me sad, as it is one of the few genuinely funny comic strips in syndication today (Doonesbury being my other favourite).
Because all too often, the subtle humour of Marmaduke requires explaining.
Currently making me chuckle muchly is the dead-tree version of ‘Toothpaste for Dinner’ — Only ten bucks at Amazon. Here’s my favourite cartoon from the book.
Grauniad dumps Doonesbury strip without warning as part of shrinkifying of paper. Hundreds of readers complain. 24 hours later, the features editor posts “mea culpa” in their blog comments, and says that it will return. Good for them. (FWIW, Steve Bell and Doonesbury were two of the main reasons I started reading the Grauniad when I was 15.)
