    If anyone has any comics with death/grim reaper, please share.
    Larsen *might* have this covered, too:

I did use a few. It was a great project. I'm pretty sure I used the primitive spelling bee one b/c it is one of my favorites.
    Are you sure this wasn't at UNC?

    For the record, smart alec, this was actually a pretty tough intro class. The final exam was 3.5 hours long and kicked my butt. The comic project was supposed to be a fun addition to everything else we were doing. And it was. And our projects were turned into a very popular exhibit at the anthropology museum on campus. But, I should have expected this response. Wake is not like the holes.

    And that's when a funny thread about a comic strip turned into a fistfight.

    It's OK. I just don't want my alma mater even jokingly compared to the cheaters.

    Not to go off too much on a tangent, as a NY kid who attended Duke in the '80's I had no idea how Wake was as an academic institution. As a NJ parent in 2020, I've learned it's a damn good school and hard as hell to get in to!

    I must say, I'm pretty disappointed at the big rollout of New Stuff! It's been over 2 weeks and there's been nothing more than the 3 added the first day.

    That said, the Daily Dose keeps me pretty happy. Every day has at least 1 classic, which is why I have trouble understanding how anyone can pick out a favorite. The guy was remarkable.

    The Wing Baby one today is my new favorite.

    Oh crap! Today's top panel I did not appreciate 30 years ago.

    I do not know how to paste it here, maybe someone else can do the honors. I'm sure I'm not the only one to sigh at it.
