Don't Come A-Knocking
Or, It's Like Learning To Ride A Bicycle
Hey folks, why not become a paid subscriber if you haven’t already? You get a pack of stickers sent to you in the mail as a welcome gift, full access to the archives, and bonus content every week. Look, there’s a button!
A couple or pieces of news this week, folks.
First, I was saddened to learn that Nicole Hollander passed away late in April. She was one of the most distinctive voices in comic strips and paved the way for so much that came later. If you’re not familiar with Sylvia, do yourself a favor and hunt down one of the printed collections. And I do strongly recommend actually getting her in print, the brilliance of her line work just doesn’t translate properly to being seen online. She will be missed.
Second, I hate to do this but I’m afraid I’m going to have to disappear for a week. I’ve got a fairly major home repair project that I have to tackle this week if I want my home to continue to be habitable. Please accept my apologies, normal schedule will resume on May 14th.
And since I mentioned major home repairs, I should also say that now would be a great time for you to buy some stuff. And hey, there’s that button again.







I can identify with the pants problem!
