It is such fun to see those 1930s pieces of furniture with such added items as a wide screen TV from today. Keep up the great work. I love to look at the drawings.

But the strip to me is soulless. All the artist have drawn what was already established decades ago (Chic and Raymond) so they only copy. On the other hand Dean is just a manager of the strip. So the artist does not really create, but copy what someone else did and the owner of the strip can´t draw a line. For me that is soulless. Kinda what Watterson believed. Anyway, Blondie is stil respectable, unlike Hagar the horrible and Hi & Lois. Blondie has always have great artwork: the characters are among the most difficult to draw right.

Nobody could make Blondie sexier than Stan Drake. I believe Blondie has been getting better of late, although I miss when Stan Drake drew it. Nobody could make Blondie sexier than Stan Drake.

It is most often cited when someone needs an example of how out-of-touch comics have gotten. You cannot change people's perceptions of the comics page when you have 70 year-old comics (espousing a perpective that's at least 30 years gone) cluttering the landscape.
