Will you miss the “Cathy” comic strip when it ends in October?
After 34 years, the “Cathy” comic strip will end in October. Will you miss it?
CATHY MORNINGSTAR, Harrison Twp.: “I used to follow it because my name is Cathy, too, and I even had some “Cathy” notecards. But I haven’t followed it in years. I just stopped reading comics. I got too busy.”
JENNIFER SNYDER, Yellow Springs: “Yes, absolutely. I’ve read it for 27 years. I could really relate to it when I was single and she was single. My favorite thing was all her shopping dilemmas, especially her and shoes.”
RACHEL ARMOUR, Dayton: “I don’t read the comics. I pay more attention to the real news.”
JULIE HOOD, Englewood: “I will miss it. I always appreciated her witty and sarcastic spin on real-life issues.”
MARY NIELSEN, Fairborn: “I used to read it a little when I was younger, but I don’t read any comics now — nothing against ‘Cathy.’ “
ERIN CARTER, Springfield: “I’ll miss it. I thought it was funny. I used to live in Indiana, and my manager there used to imitate the ‘Cathy’ character from a ‘Saturday Night Live’ skit.”

Absolutely not. I stopped reading the comocs when I discontinued the print edition of the ultra-liberal DDN awhile back. What kind of a ** fool pays for something that you can get for free?

“this”, the comics are available online, and for free. There’s even a convenient link through the DDN website. I occasionally read “Cathy”, usually in the print edition they get here at the office; rarely found it funny, like most of the “funnies”, but “Cathy” had her moments once in a while. Will I miss “Cathy”? Not much. AAACK!
