The Far Side is officially online for the first time

theverge.com

Iconic comic strip The Far Side launched its official website today, which debuted with a selection of classic cartoons, doodles from creator Gary Larson’s sketchbooks, and a letter from the cartoonist himself. Despite the strip’s cultural ubiquity in the form of books, calendars, and posters, the official website marks the first time the comic has ever been authorized to be available online.

I have a ton of Larson's books and even gifted my husband with a ton of them on one of our anniversaries. Didn't see him for ages after that. He loved the toons so much, as did I.

Glad to see he is popping up again. Makes my day!
