%- excellent, something to share with others
&- very good
5- good, about par for a decent strip
4- neutral, about like reading an advertisement
6- fair, not quite clear why the author bothered
q- mixed, somewhat funny but having other negative strands in it too
h - sick
!- toxic, attacking without any humor
And now, with no further ado (trumpet fanfare, please), I present to you the first weekly Sunday Funnies awards,
Comics I
- Zits & (of course I'm prejudiced, since I have sons like this too)
- Foxtrot 5 (amazing how things can change that way)
- Get Fuzzy % (lovely puns on the songs and a beautiful putdown of that cat)
- Frazz & (cute and fun, as it usually is)
- Baby Blues & (good, and SpinMom likes it...)
- For Better or Worse 5 (curious...)
- Jump Start 5 (the lead frames are in some ways the best)
- Brewster Rocket 4 (pretty typical - which isn't saying much)
- Drabble 5 (mom gets her turn)
- Peanuts4 (maybe someone who has taught kids will find it funny)
- Garfield4 (nothing special)
- Mutts & (sounds like some kids I know)
- Heathcliff 5 (not bad)
- Marmaduke 5 (if you have a packrat around you'll sympathize)
- Doonesbury !! (bitter and toxic - Trudeau will be the tragic figure, not those he names)
- Opus h (sick and clueless - oh well...)
- Cathy q (do we laugh or cry?)
- Ballard Street 6 (if there is supposed to be something funny here, I'm missing it)
- Blondie 5 (typical Dagwood)
- Momma q (is it just me, or is the punchline almost cruel?)
- Herman 5 (not a bad lawyer joke)
- Boondocks ! (he always manages to see something bad even when it's not there)
- Dilbert 5 (ouch!)
- La Cucaracha 5 (ok)
- Mallard Fillmore 5 (typical Oscars joke)
- In The Bleachers 5 (decent for this strip)
- Non Sequitur 4 (even if this is an intro to a topic, it needs something more)
- Prickly City & (getting too close to home - put this on the front instead of Doonesbury!)
Update: fixed some font issues. Mozilla doesn't appear to like the webdings font, but Internet Explorer is handling it properly.
