About 10 years ago, there was a strip called Bears in Love by Eric Meese.
Has anyone seen anything related to it recently?
(It was my most favoritest strip!)

Count me in!
I *love* Foxtrot!  I'd usually flip through the Foxtrot books at
the comic shop.  After reading them so many times and laughing
out loud, I figured that it's high time I paid for such fine
entertainment and I've bought several of the books
(none of the newspapers here carry it either).
They pull gags that I've not seen anywhere else, such as
all the Iguana jokes.
I usually love Jason's antics teasing Paige (the older sister)
since I usually helped my friends in elementary school tease
their older sisters (I had none of my own to tourment).
It's a family sitcom, but with a very trange twist with Jason's
antics either by himself or with the Iguana.
I'd say it's somewhere between "For Better or for Worse" in being
kind to the family dynamics and seeing the silly things that happen,
and the zany antics of Calvin and Hobbes.

Foxtrot has been my fav over Calvin and Hobbs! The Washington Post only carries
C&H, though, so I have to be satisfied with the compilations (*sigh*).
Jason is as brilliant in annoying tactics IMHO as Calvin can be.  Calvin just
doesn't have a sister and is more violent in his methods (and immagination-
zap ray guns and dinasours eating slimey girls :) ) while Jason allows his
poor iguana to lick his sleeping sister's face [Yech!:)]  Calin focus's mainly
on the main character (deservingly so) while Fox Trot covers the entire family.
Maybe it just hits closer to home since I'm not an only child...

	I believe Dik Browne is the artist who draws Hagar.

Yeah, Foxtrot is a pretty funny strip.  What I think is interesting
about it is the artwork, how similar is seems to be to some
Japanese comic strips, the ones where the people's eyes bulge out
of their heads for several feet...  Amend's artwork is very simple
and very diagrammatic, and yet can be very detailed as well...it
is always worth checking out the "fine print" in that strip.

   Here, here. I was so sick of the ones I saw in our local campus paper that
I decided to do my own strip. The very first thing I did was draw up a large list of
things that I'd NEVER do.
   Of course, it's always safer to stick with the derivative stuff. I did
a strip last year satirizing how participants in a local election were trying
to name several new buildings and bridges after the reverend Martin Luther King
Jr. Ordinarily, this would be a good thing, but these pork-barrel rascals were
just doing it to garner votes. Anyway, the Black Student Union on campus decided
that ANY mention of MLK in a cartoon was racist and complained to the Communications
Board on campus about it. The net result: my very understanding paper said that if
I did any more controversial strips, they would consider moving them to the editorial
page a la Doonesbury. They did make one thing clear, though: the one off-limits
subject in cartoons here is race.

   The strip went something like this:
PANEL 1:
   We see a girl talking to a man at an information desk.
   GIRL: So, how do I get to this seminar?

PANEL 2:
   Full shot of the man answering her question.
   MAN: Easy! Just take the Martin Luther King Jr. Expressway until you
      get to Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. Turn right and keep going
      until you get to Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza.

PANEL 3:
   Full shot of the girl. She looks bewildered.
   MAN (continues from offpanel): Go in the King Building, and the seminar
      is in the King Wing in the MLK Junior Memorial Room.

PANEL 4:
   Wide shot showing the girl staring at the man.
   GIRL: Uh... thanks.
   MAN: Any time! And if you need anything else, my name's Martin...

Comments, anyone? I didn't see anything racist about it, and neither did my
editor. I would love to hear some opinions from anyone who feels otherwise.

   Would YOUR campus paper have run this...?

Even though I'm a die-hard Fox Trot fan (where's the bloody calendar this
year, Bill?!), I have to admit the art has somewhat stagnated, though I 
certainly wouldn't say "deteriorated."  For the first 2-3 books (the 
small ones) he was almost always refining the characters, changing them
subtly.  I'm very glad Paige and Andy don't have those awful pointy noses
anymore.  Now, though the most recent character change I can think of was
Denise's glases changing shape (side note, I really like Denise, wish
she showed up more, especially in color).  Still, it is my favorite strip
(even though I don't get a paper) and I always buy the books as soon as they
are released...

So my paper, The Greenville (SC) News, ran the ``take the parents to the 
airport and get delayed'' strip today. They also ran it a couple of weeks
ago. What's the deal? Am I missing some subtle symmetry joke, or did 
my paper run the wrong thing two weeks ago? Did everyone's paper run
this one twice?

I have another question about Marvin (Yes, I've already admitted to
reading every stip in the paper :-). A couple of weeks ago, they built
up to having to get rid of the dog because marvin was alergic to him. 
Then (from my perspective, I don't remember missing a day) they dropped
the story line with no resolution.

FoxTrot is my second favorite strip, after Calvin and Hobbes.  Unfortunatly, 
since I moved to New Jersey, I haven't been able to find a newspaper which
carries it.  The only time I can read it is when I happen to visit my parents
at home.  I really miss it!!!!!

I didn't say anything about it.  I've never read it, so I can't have much
of an opinion on it...

One paper did pick up the "new Pogo" for a while when it first started up.
I found it to be interesting, but it suffered because I didn't get the
paper frequently enough to follow its continuing story line.

The main complaint I've heard about Fox Trot (which I enjoy very much)
is that it looks photocopied, and that the artwork has *deteriorated*
rather than improved over time (the idea is the artist matures and the
work improves: see Trudeau, Garry).

Comic Relief still won't reprint Fox Trot strips, which I think is
unfortunate considering it is still in less than pristine circulation
around the country. The guys at C.R. (whom I like very much but
disagree with on this issue) say that they can't find anything in Fox
Trot that is either a) funny or b) can't be spotted coming in the
first panel.

Now...C.R. reprints Calvin and Hobbes. Is there a newspaper in the
civilized world (defined as: having a 7-11) that doesn't print C&H?
Sure, I enjoy it (C&H, as well as 7-11), but I think C.R. should print
Fox Trot instead and bring it to a wider audience.

This story did have a resolution, it turned out that Marvin was not alergic 
to the dog, but to the dog's flea collar.  They got rid of the flea collar,
and kept the dog.

I love it too! I first came across it in a bookstore, while leafing
through the humor section. I loved it so much, I bought it. Now I just
have to buy ``En Masse'' (I didn't get it for Christmas <sob!> :-) 
and my collection will be relatively complete.

In complete agreement with another poster, I believe that one of the best
things about it is the fact that it's up-to-date, and has no qualms about
referring to the real world. (For example, Jason dressing up as Spock and
Worf--Bill Amend must be a real Trekkie-er, Trekker. :-) Also there's
Batman references for both movies, etc.)

On another note, is someone keeping track of all us FoxTrot fans? Unfor-
tunately, the only paper in Canada that I've found to carry FoxTrot is
the Ottawa Citizen. However, if I can show a certain local paper how pop-
ular FoxTrot *really* is, maybe I can get them to pick it up.

And don't forget about Doyle & Sternecky, former recreators of Pogo.
They created my all-time favorite U of I strip, "Escaped from the Zoo".

I agree, Bob 'n Dave is a great strip.  I doubt if the syndicates
will be picking it up anytime soon, though...

Favorite Bob 'n Dave sequence:  one fall the Daily Illini started the
semester running an "adventure" strip, drawn in great detail in typical
soap-opera-strip style, with some hero-type going on a great quest of
some sort.  After about three convincing weeks of this, the guy comes to
the guru-in-a-mountain-cave at the end of his quest, and it turns out to be 
Dave, who tries to bum some smokes off of him.  After that, it reverted to 
the usual crude (but great) line drawings...
