Weird strip. Though I did like the fake “Tofu Hut” ad back in the 80s.

Now, where does “Life in Hell” go when it dies?

I bought his first book of Life is Hell for $5. I was a big fan. A friend of mine was going to fix me up with this struggling older cartoonist. Funny to think of now...

Yeah, Life in Hell was to close to Life in Obama’s Nation.

I’ve always wondered what the audience for Cathy was. She is the worst followed by Garfield.
