In your opinion, what is the biggest waste of valuable space on the funny papers?

I hate Fred Bassett. It's never, ever been funny - even once!

Garfield and Cathy. About half of the comics page is a bunch of new, non-funny, non-entertaining strips that I don't even read. But I've disliked Cathy and Garfield since the mid-80s.

Well, it ain't funny.

I like seeing all those long-haired dudes in short tunics traipsing about and the horses and the cool Viking ships and the guys with funny names.

It looks like I’ll get a chance to off Fred Bassett! Our local paper dropped ‘Get Fuzzy’ to run a new strip and got deluged with angry messages (duh!). They’ve asked for votes on which strip to drop so they can bring back Satchel, Bucky and Rob. Votes can be emailed. I’m going to sign up for a few hundred bogus email addresses and be rid of that stupid hound!

I liked Bloom County a lot, too. Berke did some cartoons for the college paper (The Daily Texan) when I was at UT, Austin.

I'm so grateful for a chance to exercise my right to vote on this vital issue. I have never enjoyed FRED BASSETT. Please euthanize him at once to make room for funny animals like Satchel and Bucky.

I still have every issue of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, in plastic, gordon. Storing them in plastic bags is somehow very appropriate. And every time I break them out to read them, they're all new to me. So much for my short term memory.

Well, the masses have spoken.

Mark Trail was knocked out by a huge margin - thousands of votes. I like that one too. You can always tell the villains - the larger the sideburns, the more evil the character - just like real life.

Cathy and Andy Capp also came in strong on the hit list. Seems Fred Basset wasn't even a contender. Oh well.
