Oh . . . .several? ;) About 4 weeks after the new Creator’s hired?!?Reg had Andy in traditional United Stripes. . . . . R.M. Gumby has Him in a Rugby Sweater above.
HUFC, a fourth-tier Club, since 1908. Nowdays, the place looks spiffy, like a Natatorium; They even have an indoor Pitch. not so in Reg’s time.“Monkey Hangers.” Could Howard Cosell call United ‘Futbol’ Matches?
Today’s strip reminded me of an old “Peanuts” cartoon, where Snoopy (as a hockey player) is listening to the National Anthem. He’s thinking to himself: “That’s beautiful…just beautiful…twenty more seconds and I can hit somebody!” (Also relevant would be the Snoopy/Linus fight clouds when they were tangling over Linus’s blanket…..)
Linda, I saw your comment re cartoonists and commenting on old strips and what the cartoonist might think from last night. Chip Dunham is a pretty cool guy! I have been reading Overboard since I started here in 2008. I have at least 5 3 ring binders collected of his strips, and am also archiving Ten Cats and a few others. Anyway, heads up, the Instigator over at OB is CHIP!

Maybe the look in the last panel should be more of resignation than anger. I suspect that anger is somehow supposed to be funny, but not when it’s overused. Anger is not a good substitute for clever and wry...afficio, you’re a handsome man even if topside is white. Good shock of hair…… if you still have that, you’re doing great ! Fine looking brood !..My well wishes for Number Three’s return to a healthy glow. ..Happy Birthday to you, Susan/a> ! What would we do without you to remind us of Andy’s faults ? ..Homerun on the classics, Chalk !Jules was okay, but I like Miss Peaches

I don’t think the Fightcloud proper was ’til 1961, if memory serves.Might as-well run the original, eh?

I’ve known people like Andy. Smokers, drinkers, fearless and competitive athletes. But work? You could take them out with a feather duster.
