Sunday Comic Strip #1

I found a stack of Sunday-comics and advice-column "re-edits" I did for a few weeks a decade ago. Save for one or two stand-outs, I don't remember doing any of these or why I stopped, but they have my handwriting all over them, literally and figuratively speaking.

The rule, such as it was, for these re-edits was that I could only use text and panels from that Sunday's section in the mash-up -- a rule I quickly threw out the window as I amassed an envelope of leftover balloons and captions that were great but I just didn't have room to shoehorn into that week's edit.

I'll post a new strip every Sunday morning, an maybe try doing a new one now with that Sunday's comics. These files are huge, so I may have to take one Sunday down to put the next one up; if you like what you read, save the jpeg now.

And now, Flo and Andy Capp star in "Ice Cream Please, Mommy!" [June 10, 1994].
