Calvin and Hobbes. The comic strip. now that is discordian literature
he meant well, or at least he meant somthing.

I haven't gotten to Calvin and Hobbes yet, I'm currently studying dilbert cartoons.

But the best cartoons are still those once created by Gary Lawson (I think this is the correct name, I keep confusing this one with Scott Adams), you know...  Those one-pane cartoons with "the far side" written on top of it...  They are da Bomb!

BOOYEW!
When I was a little man
Playdough came in a little can
I was Star Wars' biggest fan
Now I'm stuck without a plan
GI Joe was an action man
Shaggy drove the mystery van
Devo was my favorite band
Take me back to my happy land

Dilbert is ok, but it can't comapre to the genius that is clavin and hobbes...

All of the above are fine Discordian comics. Too bad that Lawson retired...
Well, shit.

The Far Side is above and beyond any other comic.... try and find old ones from the early 80's.. (look in used book stores for the collections)... if I could ever find that one about mating rituals again i would kill for it.... KILL!....
is it Gary Lawson or Larson?... I'm not in the mood to go look...
damn my sig is still out of date....

Larson

Always trust your own memory first

My fave was the Transmografier
Ghost Cookies... Think about it...

Spoon E. Gee

damn my sig is still out of date....

Calvin and Hobbes was awesome.

and so is spacemoose.

I used to have anthologies of the Far Side, plenty of the books. As a kid I would read a book of those every night just before I went to bed. Laugh myself to sleep.

I used to love stuff like the Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes. Now, most of the syndicated crap is...well...crap. I like the Boondocks, though.

I'm more into webcomics now, though. Like Something Positive, Sinfest, Wigu, and Diesel Sweeties. Among assorted others.

On a side note...

Anybody play Calvin Ball?

We're trying to have a game this weekend.
If other people in the country play, perhaps there is a future for a game.
A league maybe?

Also, Wigu is awesome... but webcomics of choice for me have always been

www.spacemoose.com
www.angryflower.com
www.plif.com

Unfortunately, I think spacemoose is down.

My favorite webcomic is still 8-bit theatre

But then again...  It's hard not to like this one if you're a final fantasy addict like me  :wink:
