If you aren't reading it (and if you aren't, you should) then you wouldn't know that lio_comic just finished a series of strips about Calvin and Hobbes, which made me think of this.

I think the actual dichotomy would be Bloom County or Doonesbury, both of which are political in nature.

Calvin and Hobbes isn't political, but nostalgic in nature, which is why it stands up so well. Of course, Doonesbury stands up better than Bloom County.

I disagree. I think a lot of Bloom County (not all of which was political) stands up quite well indeed.

I agree. I've gotten a better understanding of American history in the early 70s from Doonesbury strips than any class I've taken.
