Richard Thompson's Cul de Sac, is a comic strip about the life of a pre-school girl named Alice Otterloop. It is a light-hearted comic strip centered around a four-year old girl and her suburban life experiences on a cul-de-sac with her friends Beni and Dill, older brother Petey and her classmates at Blisshaven Academy pre-school. Alice describes her father's car as a "Honda-Tonka Cuisinart" and talks to the class guinea pig, Mr. Danders. She has the typical older brother who plays jokes on her, and she contemplates ways to keep the scary clown from jumping out of the jack-in-the-box with friends.

This was the perfect strip for today. My youngest kiddo told me that she is already sick of this school year. It isn’t the classes or the homework, but she is tired of having to get up so early. I sent this to her. I’m sure she’ll have great appreciation (said with irony dripping from every word.)

Speaking as a late comer to this strip, I would be thrilled if Mr. Thompson simply started with Cul de Sac #1 and published them all again. I am going to miss this strip terribly. Best wishes to your and yours Sir.

@Bontebok
Reruns would be GoComics’s decisiion, I believe.
However, I’m also a relative newcomer and I agree with you!

It is my understanding that Cul de Sac will be in reruns. Where it will start from, I don’t know. I for one will take what I can get. Hang in there Richard! There are MANY, MANY people praying and pulling for you and your family!
