Although I was sad to see the end of syndication for new Ollie and Quentin comic strips this year, I was glad that Norm Feuti (of Retail fame) picked up the reins with his strip about a dysfunctional family (at least in the world of newspaper comics), Gil. It was cool to add it to my Daily Ink feed and I’ve been enjoying revisiting the characters. Gil was a web comic and it’s great to see that rejigging the comic for a newspaper audience hasn’t diminished it at all.
I just hope that they like it, editors buy it and Gil becomes the success it deserves to be.
