Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
I’m guessing he was just a visual pun on what Slim is like, a real teaser to us readers. Anyway, it is impolite for males to wear hats at dining. Some pig!—to quote Charlotte’s Web.
After the Katzenjammer Kids I believe Gasoline Alley may be the longest running American comic strip. I only mention because I fear (possibly better to read: concerned) that this beautiful story line at the old comics home could prove to be the vehicle for Jim – or whoever owns the GA rights – to pull the plug on the strip. Yes, I very much hope I am WRONG. However, I think it would help us all if ‘they’ would make a public statement on the future of GA, in general, and keeping Walt, in particular.
StuDolgon, many thanks for the links! In one article Jim says he would like to continue drawing the strip until at least GA’s 100th anniversary. By my calculation that will be November 24, 2018. I hope, along with Jim, Walt, Skeezix and the rest; that all of us are still around, as well.

The scene is shown on Saturday 4-May, but of course without the “poik” to let us have the mystery.
I love this storyline and hope it lasts for a long time.

And in my daily comics collection, Mutt and Jeff immediately follows Gasoline Alley. It’s like two for the price of one.

Some of our crew might make it, but we of WW2 vintage find the road getting steeper ahead.
