Some Great Cartoon Sites© Laura Kraus
May 13, 1997
There are a lot of great cartoon sites on the Net. Unfortunately, there's also a lot mediocre stuff. The following list is a blend of the best professional and amateur work.
- The Borderline by Gabe Martin
- Great offbeat panel with a large archive. Mon-Fri.
The cartoonist is trying to generate attention by
allowing free
use of 400 of his strips by anyone for any
purpose until 9/9/99; he's as funny as he is
entrepreneurial. There's also Merchandise.
E-mail.
- Computtoons
by John Zakour.
- A great site with a new computer cartoon every
week day since June of 1994. Has won several
Internet awards. Large archive.
E-mail.
- Daryl
Cagle's Professional Cartoonists Links
- Lots of well-organized links to syndicated and
other professional cartoons. This is clearly the
best site for finding just the good stuff. Also
take a look at Daryl's fine cartoon TRUE
and his cool TRUE
Fact Sex Encyclopedia E-Mail.
- Dilbert
Zone by Scott Adams. United Feature
Syndicate.
- "Dilbert stars as a socially-challenged
engineer and his sarcastic dog, Dogbert, whose
true calling is to rule the world, since he
believes people are basically too stupid to stop
him." Scott Adams started the rush of e-mail
and comic strips onto the Internet, and this is
still one of the best comic strip sites. About
Dilbert. Syndicated daily. Two week archive.
Check out the Dilbert
Store. E-mail.
Today's strip is available from the Forth
Worth Star Telegram.
- Doonesbury
Town Hall by Garry Trudeau. Universal
Press Syndicate.
- This is an awesome site that really pushes beyond
the comic strip itself. Although there are no
current strips, the Flashbacks
section provides the strips that ran on the same
day 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 years ago. There is
also lots of merchandise.
Special features include News, a Chat Hall, and a
Get Involved section.
- Doonesbury
by Garry Trudeau. Universal Press Syndicate.
- A second official site, this one run by Universal
Press Syndicate. The side includes a good profile
of Gary and a large archive with strips available
on a two week delay (plus some from Gary's Yale
days). Merchandise.
- Farcus
by David Waisglass and Gordon Coulhart. Universal
Press Syndicate.
- Cool panel related to business issues. Merchandise.
