Did you hear that The Far Side was making a slight return? Not in newpapers, but online, with no corporate overlords, no deadline, etc.


Larson inspired so many others to do the same thing

there are only 3 new ones so far, and maybe when there are more we'll be able to figure out if he's still on his game... but not so far.

here's one of his old ones from 1991


and did you know that they made a boxed set, of EVERY one of the Far Side comics? THAT is the best way to get the whole experience.

  1. Is that top one really by Gary Larson?
    The style looks different and it doesn't have his name on it.
    Love the Far Side.

    1. No, it's not Larson's. It has the artists name and info, bottom left.
      Then I wrote, right under it, that Gary Larson inspired so many to do the same thing, as it's evident they are copying his style
      Me too, so I made this post, and others, with Far Side comics

    2. Thanks, Jesse. I got confused by the headline saying the Far Side was returning.
      I am a bear of little brain.
