Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for October 07, 2012

Alice is so helpful to us (and Nara and Dill) with her exposition of the history and motto of Blisshaven Academy!But it is a little saddening to see Dill’s theory of the Giant Chicken refuted….

I strongly agree

And I’ll add 60 year old Peanuts to that.

Sadly the percentage is higher than 90%.

And I have a feeling this sentiment is shared with most comic strip authors.

Hi, gang. Is this strip being rerun from the beginning? I just got into Cul-de-Sac a few months ago, on the tail end, so to speak. I like it a lot!

I’m enjoying seeing it from the beginning

That’s funny.!And, I too am enjoying this strip from the beginning. Thanks again Mr. Thompson.

They didn’t complete the Alexander Pope quote that "A little learning is a DANGEROUS THING!

Best comic strip ever. I love it every day. So grateful for getting to start from the beginning! Thank you Richard and Gocomics!

I also strongly agree! : )

Minor nitpick: I wish there had been 10 years. It’s only been 5 years since this ran.

Not that I don’t enjoy some other the current cartoons, but, really, nothing out there now compares to the 2 you mentioned except for something like THE FAR SIDE, which is also a “golden age” strip!

I only discovered CdS in 2010, and it has become my favorite (along with PBS and Get Fuzzy). So, I am now able to enjoy this strip (and all the comments) from the beginning. Also, today’s Sunday strip of “Dog Eat Doug” has a nice CdS tribute.

This is the first “Cul de Sac” I ever saw it it was love at first read !

Dill’s theory is confirmed!

The Blisshaven Crest totally needs to be made into a t-shirt!

I’d like to see that.

I’m very glad that they have started running this strip from the beginning. I too, just started reading it a couple of months ago.

You are absolutely right. Along with The Far Side, Calvin & Hobbes and Cul de Sac are timeless masterpieces.

What about Lio?
