I wonder if they get a discount on the comics carried by Tribune Media Services? I want to see Lio back in the Sunday section. I've contacted Gerry Kerns a couple of times already. Here is Gerry Kern's contact information if you need it: Email the editor at: ctc-editor@tribune.com Editors name, Gerould W. Kern Phone number: 1-800-874-2863 His Twitter page: http://twitter.com/gerrykern If he Twitters, that might be a good way to get in touch with him directly and instantly?

And keep calling every day. There’s no list, Jamie, so I suggest you call the editor of the Trib and complain. And keep calling every day.

I enjoyed Scary Gary as well. Natch, two of the better ones had to get booted and not, say, a strip whose name rhymes with Braising Vector...

I also wish the daily Chicago Tribune comics: 1) Dropped the 2008 feed of Bliss strips or Argyle Sweater and/or drop Scary Gary or Brewester Rocket in favor of these strips that don't appear in any Chicago newspapers currently: Heathcliff, Off the Mark, Flying McCoys, My Cage, Rip Haywire, Off the Mark, and Over the Hedge. We'll see what happens... I sent a comment/suggestion e-mail to the Tribune as well hoping to reinstate the Sunday Lio strip, maybe replacing Pickles. I also wish the daily Chicago Tribune comics:

My son is looking forward to that. The Trib received my profanity laced emial on Friday. No, I'm just kidding. It was short, sweet and polite. I hope they bring it back. Thanks, Mark!
