Comics (web and otherwise) that must die

I find it strange that Fred Basset is actually put out in the US. It's either some meta-surreal joke that no one gets, and thus the best comic strip ever, or its designed by government scientists to sedate us. Has anyone ever tried reading Fred Basset when they're really high? I wonder what the results would be...

If..., The Pain and every strip printed in Private Eye (Especially It's Grim Up North London, Scenes You Seldom See and Young British Artists) disagree with you. If... and The Pain are more political/current affairs cartoons of course (though If... is definitely a comic strip, with story arcs and whatnot), which I suppose is a whole different thing, and a much more thriving field that the internet has yet to seriously touch on (can't think right now of anything online that can match up to Nature Notes or Giles).

Comic I've been enjoying lately is "Pearls Before Swine", anyone else seen it, it's pretty cool 8-)

God, I guess this is the closest any discussion will get to considering Family Circus as anything close to entertainment, so here it is.

Please, click it if you like Nietzsche as much as you hate Family circus

Oh man, Lar Desouza was the best thing that ever happened to LICD. At best, the previous artists were extremely unimaginative.
