I mildly like Garfield. Never particularly cared for Calvin and Hobbes (always found it somewhat preachy, tacky, and emotionally kitch, the "I think we've learned something today", going-for-the-feels type), though the writer is nonetheless very talented (and a lot of its strips are great). The post also mentions the New Yorker cartoons. Never cared for them either, not because I "missed the joke", but because I dislike their faux-high-brow attitude to humor, given that the content is more often than not trite observations about society. I also like lots of webcomic strips (Cyanide and Hapiness, Dinosaur Comics, SMBC, The Parking Lot is Full, etc), and comics like Gosciny, Mafalda, Mortadelo y Filemon, and so on, besides "serious" comics. |
