...and by this I mean does anyone still read the comics? Not like comic BOOKS such as Batman, Superman, Spiderman, all that jazz but like comics in the newspaper like the Peanuts, or Fox Trot, or Garfield, or Dilbert, things like that. Do you still read any comics at ALL and if so which are your favorite. I do and my favorites are a class combination of new and old comics, I really love Get Fuzzy and Perals Before Swine of the new era while I enjoy some oldies which are somewhat newies as well because they still go on such as Fox Trot, For Better or For Worse, Peanuts, Calvin and Hobbes, The Far Side, Doonsebury, and even a little bit of Garfield but more or less the ones of the 70's to early 90's because now a day comics of Garfield are really just sucking. How about you people? Do you even read these kinds of comics anymore and if so which ones do you tend to read and enjoy? :)

Eh...not really. That kind falls within the purview of Comic Books. I'm talking about newspaper funnies, I could guess that many people do however read themselves some manga (myself included) but sadly...eh...not really what I mean. :? Sorry. :(

Still read Calvin and Hobbes, B.C., Little Lost Dog and Pooch Cafe. I love Poncho! He's awesome.

Not really. Occasionally I read Peanuts out of nostalgia (... Snoopie is just awesome 8) )

But I do read comic books.

I read through the newspaper every so often (mostly when I work and take a break) and I read the ones in the paper then.
My favourite is probably Zits. A lot of the other ones have their moments too.

For internet comics I read Questionable Content and have been meaning to read through Pictures For Sad Children.
I really like Dresden Codak, though I haven't been reading them as they come out lately (I think I'm going to wait until the current story arc is finished and then read it all). The visuals and content are rediculous and awesome. Took me a little bit to follow how they're laid out, but it was worth it.

The only comic strips I really used to enjoy were Calvin and Hobbes and The Far Side. I'll look at the ones in the paper now on occasion, but they're usually pretty terrible.

I never really read traditional comics much, although I've become quite interested in several webcomics. I keep up to date with about 8 of them now.
