Hey older people do you remember when sunday comic strips were a full page?

LOL -yes I do and there weren't any soap opera ones on there. They were all funny.

BQ - Right now it's Hagar the Horrible but when I was a kid it was Li'l Abner

BQ2 - You mean Winsor McCay I think. I didn't even know who he was until I looked him a couple of minutes ago. LOL

BQ3 - I'm good - Bored but good.

How are you?

I don't remember the strips taking up the full page, but I do remember Sunday sections, where perhaps only two strips appeared on the first page. Some of them are gone now, like Liberty Meadows, Calvin & Hobbes and Bloom County (later Outland and Opus). Of course there was Pogo and Peanuts, too, which were often on the front page. All of the comics have shrunk almost beyond recognition nowadays. My current favorites are Get Fuzzy, Zits, and Pearls Before Swine, along with Pickles. The best drawn strip from my days of reading comics were C & H and Liberty Meadows, both beautiful and imaginative.

Yes, I do. Still the case in some papers, I believe.

BQ: Probably a tie between "Calvin and Hobbes" and "The Far Side", both of which have been known to literally make me LOL.

BQ2: Not familiar with that, therefore not qualified to answer.

BQ3: All right I guess, thanks for asking. A bit tired and the crappy weather hitting the tri-state area this week isn't helping, but nothing I can't handle.

The Mason City Globe Gazette (Iowa) Sunday paper has 4 full pages in color. They include:Beetle Bailey, Blondie, B.C., Hagar the Horrible, Crankshaft, Foxtrot, Classic Peanuts, Garfield, Dilbert, Dennis the Menace, For Better or For Worse, Zits, The Duplex and, (sigh.......) The Family Circus and Hi and Lois.

We read a few of those. Others are pretty awful, but at least we still get them with the paper.

BQ: "Zits," and "Dilbert."

BQ2: never heard of it.

BQ3: need a coffee, but great otherwise, thanks.

The last Sunday paper I saw, there was still a three page bi folded section of comics.

I still have a few I like. "Cathy", and "Family Circus" to name two I can think of. I re-

member when "Henry" and "Lulu" were in the Sunday comics. And the Katz& Jammer

Kids, and "Popeye" and "Blondie and Dagwood" too.I'd save the comics for the last to

look forward to the fun and saver it.

I remember the exploits of Steve Canyon on the full page comic strips.Look at the size of newspapers today.(Enough said.)

BQ:Garfield and Crankshaft.

BQ3:I'm vertical and blessed to be alive on this National Day of Prayer.

alas,we were not allowed to read the Sunday Newspapers in our house on a Sunday,my mother and father read The News of the World,which was a tad near the mark Comic strips were only in American papers,in the 30s as a kid Britain was very staid,(on the surface.)

Our city newspapers had a whole separate section of comics. I remember reading them on the floor with our knees and elbows on the floor while daddy read the paper.

Blondie

Maggie and Jiggs

Gasoline Alley

Dick Tracy

Popeye

L'il Abner

So many ore I don't remember.

Last BQ, Pretty good, usual stiffness and aches and pains, that is just a usual part of me. Basically, I'm good! Thanks for asking.

They gone down hill. I liked Orphan Annie, Charlie Brown, Blondie, Fred Basset and Zits.

Yes! I loved Little Lulu and Nancy and Sluggo. I thought Archie was a dummy for preferring Veronica over Betty.
