I saw this strip a few minutes ago in my feed reader. My immediate reaction was, "this is why Kurtz scares the printed comic industry so much." He is very talented. It's been a joy to read PvP over the past 8 years or so (just guessing on my part).

His art has really improved over the years too. If you go back and look at the start of his archive, the difference between then and now is amazing.

Much like if you go back and look at Bill Watterson's work on Calvin and Hobbes.

That kind of comparison would flatter most comic artists :)

Another interesting evolution was the fifty years for which Charles Schulz drew Peanuts.

I used to collect his books/compilations

I felt the same way. I like Kurtz's blog post on the topic as well, very tasteful.

Same here - it really got me more than most other tributes.

Please enlighten an uninitiated: what does "mo" mean in the last panel?

It says "no."

Thanks. I thought it was some Buddhist syllable.

Like the blog post says, "poor design ruins lives"... that silly font already costed me 3 downvotes.

A life is worth 6 downvotes, so it only ruined half your life.

this is so sad because that item was on my list... and I felt the same way when I removed it.

....I'm wondering how the title of this thread got changed on me...?

The problem with bucket lists...

please please, do not retire to italy.
