“I would probably go with ‘Get Fuzzy.’ It has good illustration and a good sense of humor. I also like that it has longer story lines, but each strip is funny on its own.”

— Elliott Gish, Kansas University freshman, Lawrence

“I’m still a big ‘Peanuts’ fan, probably because my dad would always read it.”

The Far Side, the Seinfeld of comic strips. Dibert is a close second, scary the way it reflects office life - wacky stuff.

Zippy, particularly when Mr. Toad makes an appearance. I have a large degree of self-identification with Mr. Toad.http://pst.rbma.com/content/Zippy_the_Pinhead?date=20080124&size=hires

Get Fuzzy and Dilbert. For those who liked "The Far Side," take a look at one called "The Perry Bible Fellowship, " (http://pbfcomics.com/).
