What is a comic page anyway........if not a reflection of yourself. If a piece of humour does not tickle your ivories, then you have not reached its level or you have gone so far beyond it that it leaves you irritated and wishing for characters and ideas with greater meaning.

You can read, laugh and run as we all do when reading the comic page.
On a slow lazy morning when the world's pressures can't find you, try reflecting on some of those
special cartoons that really stir your happy hormones....and ask yourself why?

Sylvia
Witty and outgoing, Sylvia casts her opinion upon an unsuspecting world via the claw-foot bathtub where she conducts her life as a free-lance writer, director of self-help seminars and administrator of special goddesses.

Rita
More domesticated than her mother will ever be, Rita eats well, is neat and has a job –- keeping her mother, Sylvia, in check (and out of the tub) when she can.

The Lonely Detective
A product of Sylvia's career as a creative writer, this private eye is based on Raymond Chandler’s Lou Archer. He works by himself in a rundown office and has a soft heart for people in trouble.

Bad Girls
These ladies bring up controversial topics from seedy corners of Capitol Hill and discuss them openly, making them very bad girls. Alien Lover He's the perfect guy. He treats his wife to a life filled with every woman’s most elaborate fantasies. Would you like your homemade profiteroles for tomorrow's breakfast with a chocolate or honey lavender sauce?

Hypno-Hotline
If you'd like to be convinced that the government isn’t going to drill in the Arctic, for example, Earl and Gladys will be happy to make your life a little easier through hypnotic therapy (for a small processing fee.)

Cats With Signs
When these cats have something to say, they take over the strip, offering funny quips via their sandwich boards.Special GoddessesDon't spend your afternoon on silly time-sucking activities. In Sylvia, bureaucratic nonsense and red tape are left to the care of your special goddess. A little fantasy all of us hold dear. The Woman Who Does Everything More Beautifully Than You DoDoes your life not quite measure up to some ideal you've forced upon yourself? This woman is so sure of herself it’s sickening, but Hollander reminds us that it's OK not to be perfect. After all, even perfectionists can wind up in front of Senate Sub-Committees.

Clyde
The Free-lance ScientistKeeping up with the most outlandish areas of science, Hollander gives us Clyde. His experiments always have some basis in real-world invention, but he takes them to the realms of the fantastic.
