founded here in 1923. Today they changed their daily comics lineup.

Non Sequitur
Zits

Continuing (13):
Beetle Bailey

According to an article last week the new Sunday lineup will begin
February 4. The article spoke broadly about the /D&C/ comics selection
having changed over the years, and implied that the upcoming change
would save the paper money, but made no mention of the corporate mandate
that actually forced the revamp.
