Editorial: Tribune’s comics are set to expand
Published 9:26 am Thursday, September 8, 2016
Thanks to everyone over the last few weeks who has contacted us about what comics you would like to read in the Tribune. We found out there are some we are already printing along with a few we are not printing, but could possibly run in the future.
By far, the people who contacted us most frequently said their favorite comic was Pickles, followed by For Better or For Worse.
In our online poll of 849 participants, readers voted for the following as their favorite of the comics the Tribune already prints:
• Garfield, 456 votes, 54 percent
• The Born Loser, 146 votes, 17 percent
• Hagar the Horrible, 113 votes, 13 percent
• Pickles, 69 votes, 8 percent
• For Better or For Worse, 34 votes, 4 percent
• Dilbert, 23 votes, 3 percent
• Willy ’n Ethel, 11 votes, 1 percent
We appreciate the feedback and now plan to begin looking into options to expand the comics further.
If you have any additional thoughts, please let us know. We hope to provide more information in the coming weeks.
