THIS WEEK'S COMIC at BoingBoing

Hollingsworth Hound lands a lucrative oil drilling contract... So, how will Lucky Ducky come out the winner?

Note:  This is the first story in which Lucky Ducky does not represent any group of oppressed, neglected or disadvantaged American people!  Hurry to BoingBoing to find out!

Finale

There has been a lot of interest in TV finales recently, so comics writer Tom Spurgeon lists the 10 best comics finales in history.

But if he loves comics finales, I can't believe he forgot this one:  John Scully's classic comic strip that featured a finale every ding dong day.

"Percival Dunwoody, IV, Idiot Time Traveler from 3 Days Ago"

"Dinkle, the UNlovable Loser"

"Too Many Panels / Too Much Information Comix"

"Petey the Pixel"

And I'm sure that when legislation regulating celebrities' ghosts is introduced, Sen. Al Franken will read "Spooky Ghost Story" on the floor of the Senate.

We went from the Haunted Mansion straight to the Hall of Presidents.  Seeing a black man standing among dozens of old white guys was amazing. Maybe that ride should now be in Fantasyland.
