"Dear Comics Reader: We here at 'Pearls' feel that the format of Sunday strips is a waste of your time. Why should you, the reader, have to read through numerous panels of dialogue when all you really want is the punchline? Thus, in order to maximize your comic enjoyment, we here at 'Pearls' have taken the actual punchlines from four other popular strips and given those lines to your favorite 'Pearls' characters. No wasted panels. No boring set-up dialogue. Just pure comic pleasure...We hope you enjoy." "What's this?" "I've been trying to get your attention all weekend!" "'Beetle Bailey' (All strips from 10/20/02)" "Okay, so I'm no nature expert." "'Garfield'" "What kind of cheap trick is that?" "Really!" "'Blondie'" "when he gains a few pounds, he won't have to rush out and buy a larger size!" "'Hagar the Horrible'" "pearls...Four Times the Humor, at One-Fourth the Price"
