Some are not fans of The Far Side. To them I say - GO! Go then, read your Mary Worth and Family Circus! I weep for you.

I absolutely love the Far Side! love

I used to have some of the books, but they vanished when I moved a few years ago... confused

My favourites are innumerable. Gotta love the dinosaurs and the bear! There's one with some cavemen and a spelling contest, but I can't find it...
Here are some others:

Well, lucky-lucky us. Lucky-lucky-luck.
Luck-luck-LAKK-LAKK-LAKK-LAKK-cluck-cluck-cluck-cluck-cluck-LAKK-LAKK-LAKK.

TMPletz	I can't find a scan of it, but there's the one where a parent is downstairs and his kid upstairs, and the father says something to the effect of "Go to sleep, or I'll have to knock three times and summon the floating head of death!" He's holding onto a string attached to a baloon with a scary face on it that's right below the kid's window.
