Post #6,788 by SpiceWare 8/27/01 11:18:50 AM Reply	I miss legible comics Last time I looked at a paper I was shocked at how much smaller the comics have become. Bill Watterson has a section in Calvin and Hobbes Tenth Anniversary where he discusses how comics used to have the entire page to be layed out in, and how they've just become "talking heads" due to the shrinkage.

Post #6,898 by Ashton 8/27/01 8:18:22 PM Reply	MBA-s again? crap-strips a real 'bargain' maybe? I recall that one of the reasons - maybe main one - Watterson gave for leaving then, was the horrible shrinking of space. Add to that of late (at least SF Chronicle - the ONLY paper left for all of San Francisco..) - comic section is so small it is buried in the custom ad-let-'zines, has a folded ad around it AND - one you have to tear-off of the first page, itself! I must soon get that snail-mail 100% rag note off to Owner: hey! Wake Up!! HALF my reason for purchase of the Sunday ad-monition is for Decent Comics, the last bastion of actual political satire left in Murica, 'cept for the rags pitched to converted fringe groups. Little by little.. the homgenization is slipped in with each merger, each large city disinterested in preserving 'newspapers' (pl.) - each strip mall turned into a Walmart + BlockB + StarBux. Poco a poco. A. Boycott Walmart.. It's the decent, the Murican, the Christian Thing to do..

"He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." - Friedrich Nietzsche
