And of course, these newspaper comic strips to date have disappeared for good in 2023:
R.F.D.
Mt. Pleasant
Half Full
Pros and Cons
Dilbert (the lame duck of the year)
....and now, The Amazing Spider-Man (after a few years of reruns).

Even the third Spider-Verse film planned for 2024 is delayed due to the SAG/AFTRA strike.
