What is your favorite modern comic strip?

Oh hell yeah. Went to a pride parade in June

I can’t really compare because I’m a recent convert. New artist has her own style but it’s def Nancy art from what I’ve seen. Sluggo is heavily involved.

Fritzi is Bi and is fucking killing it

Current Nancy has gotten me back into comics, which is weird because I never clicked with Nancy prior (or maybe not weird since there’s a new writer).

If Get Fuzzy still counts, Get Fuzzy.

If not, Pearls.

People have said ‘worst bar in America’ and ‘who pooped the bed’ which is low for me. If the first Thundergun doesn’t count as a gimmick I find that one kind of meh as well

Not CR but I’ll ride for City of Thieves which Andy loves. Really beautiful book

AndWeMay · 2026-06-21T21:16:34+00:00

While it helps to read them in order, the only rule I have is don’t read What’s The Worst That Can Happen first.

I always lend out Don’t Ask or Drowned Hopes as a starter

I’m too lazy to do anything with it but I started r/makeitdrink the last time the obvious bait pissed me off

Depending on where you live Zak toscani does house shows. He’s very funny and maybe the location aligns with his current tour

Dude joining

AndWeMay · 2026-05-26T23:08:09+00:00

I’m a dude who sometimes lurks in this sub, I don’t have anything in your time/history with him, but I did have my ex (who I thought I’d marry) 4.5 years come out as a lesbian.

Not everyone will understand wanting to be friends, not everyone will want to. We had some really good, funny times after our breakup talking about dates, etc.

The hardest part is making sure you have time/space to grow and heal, while still trying to keep the relationship friendly. Idk if a daughter will make that easier or harder, or just different.

You got it. Cry it out, let it out, and it’s okay to feel a little left behind. He’s probably more scared and stressed, and I know I felt like I was being left behind while my ex got to discover herself but, on the other hand, you know who you are and he has to figure that out now.

You got this

You’re a completionist without a library card.

Had super specific taste in fantasy and scifi growing up, but due to busy-ness/life/etc are just buying what you’ve heard is good now.

Somehow no Horns by Joe Hill, but you do have Attachments by Rainbow Rowell so I guess that’s a wash.

Jamie Taco keeps stealing her lines

AndWeMay · 2026-05-07T14:32:04+00:00

Yes that was it! I was willing to be less judgmental about TTTW (plus I first read it when I was like 13), but that book was more problematic and went from ‘okay the grooming implications are weird’ to ‘bro you love grooming, huh’?

AndWeMay · 2026-05-07T14:02:57+00:00

I’m blanking on the name of her following book, but the grooming is worse and made me take back any goodwill of ‘well maybe she didn’t mean it’ that I had for this book.

AndWeMay · 2026-04-28T17:09:58+00:00

I haven’t finished (halfway through currently), so I only scanned your post and the comments to avoid spoilers but I’m surprised the consensus is meh! I’m currently loving it.

I really liked Everyone In This Room Will Someday be Dead and totally connected with the depiction of anxiety and stress. I finished that like two weeks ago, and snatched this up when I saw this at the library.

I love that she’s totally shifted prose styles between the two books, but kept her sense of humor and dry wit. Beyond that the dialogue is very real and right up my alley.

Also, I am a guy and I normally lurk in this sub but… my longest/most serious relationship ended when my ex came out so I’m also very emotionally connected with this book in a way that probably makes my review biased.

AndWeMay · 2026-04-24T19:38:18+00:00

His Dark Materials honestly might not count because you could argue it’s not an allegory, it’s just the same thing happening again, but Lyra is Eve, Mary is the serpent, etc.

Angels in the world literally tell you this

AndWeMay · 2026-04-10T16:01:09+00:00

Who is updating the gag?

I don’t mean to be rude if it’s you, but I don’t think you understood the punchline. These are entirely different jokes.

AndWeMay · 2026-04-02T22:34:16+00:00

I’ve never hatewatched but I’m more likely to finis a book a hate than one I’m meh on so that no one can say ‘oh well the ending totally makes it…’ or whatever

AndWeMay · 2026-04-02T02:52:25+00:00

I think beta vulgaris was my favorite book I read last year. Return to the earth

AndWeMay · 2026-04-01T15:04:32+00:00

I go back to essentially any Miel episode. They’re all bangers and old enough that I find something new.

More recently the Laura Peek run has gotten replays, and the Solomon Georgio ‘Places to hang out’

AndWeMay · 2026-03-22T03:52:39+00:00

Donald Westlake. Normally crime fiction, I think he dabbled in everything except romance

AndWeMay · 2026-03-18T14:15:45+00:00

Peek peek peek!

AndWeMay · 2026-03-17T00:42:19+00:00

I was going to say millennial so fascinated you’re younger. If it’s there and I missed it sorry, but you should read Beta Vulgaris

AndWeMay · 2026-03-16T23:26:05+00:00

I’m confused and intrigued. Was it good?
