St. Petersburg Times’ Comics Shifts
After spotlighting the comic strip changes at the
Sacramento Bee, I received a few e-mails saying that the
St. Petersburg Times, apparently Florida's largest newspaper has also made change by which we might divine a trend or two. The
Times' moves look more like a standard new strip pump-up, with
Dog Eat Doug,
Watch Your Head.
Peach Fuzz, and
F Minus stepping in for a combination of a shifting around of features, dropping
Cathy and
Opus, and the
Boondocks hiatus. The
Opus drop is pretty interesting. I don't think that strip launched with a huge, huge number, and we know Breathed has walked away twice before -- it makes me wonder if Andrews McMeel went with a
Complete Bloom County collection if that might not happen.
