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.

Only we got to see it in black and white before.

Alice! It’s not a pie! It’s called lasagna, and it’s one of the finest comfort foods ever invented. And that cat? “She” has a name…. (Petey, don’t give up! Where there’s life, there’s hope—even for comic strips.)

From the archive, this also ran November 25, 2007. Mr. Thompson explains why he chose it for the last one, before the reruns, here.

This is hilarious. I hope comic strips are never a dying art form in my lifetime. As much as I love her, Alice would make me neurotic too!

I wonder how Richard is doing? I hope in spite of everything, he had a nice holiday surrounded by family and friends. Bless you Sir!

The thing is, comics are not a dying art form. There are tons of great and popular webcomics out there. Newspaper comic strips, on the other hand….

It makes me wonder what might happen if Alice talked to an actual cartoonist.
