There's only one possible way to solve this. Go back in time and prevent Bill Keane from ever drawing Family Circus! It would be for the betterment of all mankind.

Hopefully this arc ends with a huge battle between the BFF league and the evil legions of Hollywood. Hopefully with giant robots and cameos by the rest of the cast. Looking forward to reading more.

They should get Stephen Pastis to help. He's been ripping into Family Circus for years.

Promoting Cathy is like promoting the Family Circus. Bloom County kicks her to the curb.

Must be. Spends all their time heads down texting on their iPhone, can't keep up with the train of events going on around them in the RW.

Lol, Marmaduke is based on a comic? Some guy wanted to buy it when I was working a couple of weeks ago, but left it because it was $25 instead of $10 (or something...) and I read the synopsis on the back when I had free time, it sounded like something that would be extreeemely painful to watch.


http://comics.com/marmaduke/ Yup, and it's still running and looks to still be drawn by the same artist. It's a 1 panel gag comic, with longer strips on weekends....

Really, Family Circus isn't all that bad folks. It's got it's charms, and they take the humour some fans have about the strip well for the most part. It's actually drawn by one of Bill Keane's sons at the moment- drawing the continuing adventures of your bratty child-self has to be kind of surreal though. And the strip gave us Glen Keane if you stop an think about it, and animation's all the better for that Smile

Just wondering, does anyone else see this pic as a candidate for Jimmy Kimmel's Unnecessary Censorship.

I guess that goes for the Bill the Cat pic too.

URP!

I know I gag whenever I see it.

How many more months will I have to wait before we get a good panty shot of Nina?
