Ziggy by Tom Wilson & Tom II for December 05, 2021

Not even one wrinkle at 50, Zigg!

One time I was 51 years old. I don’t use any trees to read the comic strip Ziggy.

Wow.

A diary would use just as much paper for the cartoons.

Keep up the good work, Zig!! (and Tom II and III and however many more for another 50 years.)

Don’t worry, this is Go Comics, they were all virtual trees!

Before the internet came along some 25 years ago, that entire stack would represent just one Sunday edition of the newspaper carrying Ziggy’s comic in my city alone. I think they printed some 1.5 million copies of the Sunday paper.

When I was a teen one of the hinge I did was to clean estates. One home had a large detached garage. When I opened the door I found it stacked from floor to ceiling, front to back with nothing but New Yorker magazines. Several 60 yard boxes later I had the place clean.

Forest management along with the paper companies rotate the trees needed to make paper for comics, newspapers, magazines and many more paper products. Stop complaining about the waste.

Happy Birthday Ziggy.

Wonder why people are trying to save trees all the time. They are a crop just like wheat. Where I live folks make a living harvesting trees and wheat in the same area. No one ever gets up set with combines cutting down the wheat. Glad they do still cut trees I really enjoy my home made out of wood. LOL.

Odd, the Peanuts collection (also 50 years) doesn’t take up that much paper…

The papers have already been used

You know you could have done that on one compact disk? Fred, it’s hot in here turn the ceiling fan on full.

Happy birthday Ziggy! Tom II you have been awesome maintaining your dad’s legacy in Ziggy. Happy birthday to you too!

Shut up parrot — where do you think your cage liner comes from?

Haps ’Versary!

After 50 years you deserve pants!

Thank goodness it made him fabulously wealthy.

Congratulations, Tom Wilson!

I think Ziggy is fibbing a little, it’s actually 50 1/2 years.

Congrats, Ziggy, and the Wilsons!!

Converting it to digital will really save trees.

Some things are worth using the paper for.

Keep up the good work Ziggy.

Congratulations. 50 years is an amazing achievement.
