B.A.: “Arlo and Janis Strip I Wish I Could Un-see”

Pokémon Gone?

Is Pokémon Go still a thing? Or does Mr. Anderson think it’s still a thing? Or is this just an old comic?
My one experience with Pokémon Go was just over three years when my nephew showed me how it worked while we were sitting in a restaurant. This might not have been the best decision either of us had ever made.
Comic That Would Make Infinitely More Sense If Your Father Weren’t a Multi-Billionaire

Not “synchronicity” exactly, but…
Funny that this gets published

right after we discussed this

Beginnings
Today’s premiere of Heart of the City 2.0 prompted me to think about other “first strips” and how, for better or worse, they set the tone for everything that would follow.

Peter Zale hooked me with the very first Helen, Sweetheart of the Internet

Basically, Milholland was telling us on Day One that if you’re capable of being offended, you should leave now.
(And don’t worry: the “baby” is now in his late teens, a regular in the strip, and Davan’s surrogate son)
Perhaps somebody who has a Comics Kingdom membership can supply the very first Hagar the Horrible, which I also remember as setting the stage for the next half century.
Does anybody remember any other significant Day Ones?
Seriously, why not just start a new strip?

Speaking of…

Once again, Zits demonstrates that we really need a “No, adults are NOT that stupid category.” And as Hillel the Elder famously said, “And if not now, when?”

Of course, now Bob’s going to bring the Coronavirus back to his planet and wipe out his entire species. NICE GOING, BOB…
