Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for May 28, 2010
Transcript:
Stephan says, "Hello?" Jeff says, "Hi, Stephan, this is Jeff Keane. I do the comic 'Family Circus.'" Stephan says, "Oh, hi, Jeff. How goes it?" Jeff says, "Not so good actually. I'm afraid one of my characters, 'Jeffy,' keeps getting hit in the nose with sunflower seeds." Stephan says, "Sunflower seeds? Well, that's weird... but why are you calling me?" Guard Duck says, "Bet you can't hit him in the ear." Rat says, "Watch me."

In my newspaper, Family Circus and other 1 panel strips are always at the top of the comics page, so at first this didn’t make sense to me
