Watch Out for Kite-Eating Trees
I know I've been pretty flaky with the Sunday posts but hopefully from this point on there will be a regular stream of Sunday comics.
Ronaldinho Gaucho
Unless eating your vegetables also turns you into a man, this is veering awful close to child pornography. I guess not drawing the nipples make it okay.
That's Life
Wouldn't this work better with Batman considering the 1960s Batman TV show had all the "POW!" and "ZOW!" and "BORT!" graphics? Also considering Superman would be impervious to being stabbed by an action bubble makes this comic not work.
Funky Winkerbean
"Yeah, that Class of '11 just isn't as good as the Class of '10. I hope they all die."
"Well, considering this is 'Funky Winkerbean' that is a plausible storyline."
Blondie
I love how Dithers hit Dagwood so hard with a pillow that it knocked Dag's shoe off. Now that's a wallop.
Mary Worth
Sweet Jesus. First Wilbur takes his fake son fishing and then takes his real daughter kite flying? Does Wilbur not know how to have a good time?
Zits
I love Bazooka Joe comics. I kind of wish there a book that reprinted the thousands of strips that have been produced. I also hope somewhere in those strips is the story of why Joe wears that eyepatch. Some horrible marble accident I assume.
Gasoline Alley
Hmm, considering birds could give a flying fig about our timekeeping methods I don't think they really notice our time change because they still wake up at the crack of dawn.
Now you all need to go over to my site and follow me on Twitter.

I was going to say that maybe depicting a topless underage girl has fewer unsavory implications in the country where Ronaldino Gaucho is drawn, but then I looked up the strip and found out that Ronaldino is actually supposed to be a boy. Apparently, he's a real life soccer player who is famous enough that he got his own comic strip based on his childhood. But that pony tail threw me off too.

Personally I'd like to see the strip where he gets chewed out for posing as a handicap.
That green bird sure is stupid.
Realizing I am on THE INTERNET, I highlighted "Ronaldino Gaucho" and right-clicked for a Google search and learned that this person is a dude.
It took all of two seconds.
That's Life: Given the expression and position of the sound effect, I initially assumed Superman was seeing the doctor because he was having supergastrointestinal distress caused by the same exposure to Red Kryptonite that turned his boots blue.
