The three new comics today are not inspiring for funny as based on one day's worth of panels. Pooch Cafe has a "scare a juvenile" theme it seems. I don't see this going anywhere. I place it in the trash heap with Lio.
The Knight Life has a hint of realism and humanity - yet to be verified. It may have potential.
Scary Gary is totally irrelevant and vile/bile. Toss it in the trash heap.
One of my daily habits is to read the comics first thing in the AM before I solidify my plans for the day. If I don't do this, the day seems empty. I look for two things: humor, and insights into life's realities and ironies, philosophy more or less. Thus there are some of the comics that I rarely glance at because I have already discounted them as not providing either of the above. As far as I am concerned they are a waste of space and would prefer that they be tossed or sorted so that they all fall on the right side page at the bottom, so I don't have to look. Specifically:
Cathy- This strip was once mildly interesting, but it has gone over the same territory for so many years that it is not worth the time to read it.Toss it.
Tundra - Since the space is used, I will comment again.
