Comics Saturday

As I’ve mentioned before, we get three papers in the morning, and I have about twenty minutes to read them (except on Saturdays and Sundays, of course). No matter what, I read the comics, as it is a tenet of my religion. Only the Courant’s comics will do. I scorn the Day’s comic page, and of course we all know that the Times is too highbrow to stoop to running the comics, except of course on their op-ed page, where they run both Maureen Dowd and Bill Kristol.

Today, there were three good ones, so I will pass them along, in the order of funniness.

First, Zippy, which today is almost eerily comprehensible:

Next, Monty, who, in case you don’t follow the comics, is trying to fulfill his New Year’s resolution of talking to a new girl every day until he meets his true love:

You have to appreciate the little touches in these cartoons. Note the store name on the bag that Monty is carrying. You may have to click on the cartoon to get a little bigger view.

Finally, Soup to Nutz, which makes a compelling case for laxer gun laws:
