Excuse me while I geek out on "9 Chickweed Lane"



Brooke McEldowney's pulling some kind of triple-threat. He not only writes the most compelling, hysterical and sexiest comic strip ever, but he also illustrates it with beautiful people, inside and out, who ring with an intimate truth.

And then he renders it all into levels of artistry, lines of whimsy, high-contrast hi-jinks that turn three and two panel worlds into exquisite portraits of design, graced with a mischievous wit and an unmistakable power. I love "9 Chickweed Lane"



Best comic strip about relationships. Ever. Brooke's a genius.



Okay, wiping myself off now and going back to work.

I wish I got this strip. You're right...it's quite beautiful and brilliant. The top one was almost a Target ad. In a good way.
