Sunday Best from the Washington Post

Greetings to our blog readers in Colombia, Honduras and Canada...

Why do we have images of Gil Gerard from his "Buck Rogers" day (an NBC sci fi show that aired circa 1979), '60s cartoon favorite Atom Ant and a bunch of green golf balls???!!!

This is because all of these things relate to our favorite comic strips from this Sunday's "Washington Post." "Brewster Rockit: Space Guy," which we actually first saw in "The Atlanta Journal Constitution" in 2007, wins this week with a great comic strip about a carbon copy selfie?! The comic strip is also in the "News and Record" in Greensboro, NC.

Second place goes to "Lio," which shows an alien octopus scaring away the rug rats from "The Family Circus" comic strip. The bronze medal goes to "The Argyle Sweater" which shows Army ants having a picnic in what could be lower Manhattan. Fourth place goes to the always funny and hip Keith Knight and his autobiographical comic strip "Knight Life," which this week, shows a man who literally has his eye on the (golf) ball. Tiger Woods would be proud!

Knight will be singing books at an event in San Fransisco from Oct. 9th-11th. 


Here is our list:

1. Brewster Rockit: Space Guy

2. Lio

3. The Argyle Sweater

4. Knight Life

5. Speed Bump

6. Reply All

7. WUMO

8. Rhymes with Orange

9. Frazz

10. Sherman's Lagoon
