Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I didn't know either lol. I've also never heard of Lloyd Austin. For that matter, I'm not sure who was secretary of defense during Facts of Life's run - "Casper Weinberger" comes to mind for some reason.
Very good, he was '81 to '87! And I've actually heard of him, although only because his name was in Bloom County. The others that it could conceivably have been are Harold Brown and Frank Carlucci, but it was probably Weinberger when this question was asked.
Bloom County was so good. I can only hope that Berkeley Breathed hasn't become a rightwing crackpot cunt like so many of the other cartoonists from his era. I'm genuinely afraid to look it up.
He hasn't. In fact, he brought the strip back for a while so he could mock Trump some more.
Faith in humanity: restored. Breathed's humanity, anyways.
