  • agree, Ziggy or other simple / big-nose comics (he wasn't unique in that) done in sort of a Borscht Belt / old-timey / spit-take style
  • Garfield, yup
  • Mary Worth
  • Doonesbury for sure, and I'm thinking that dressing 'em up as cats is just a way of drifting it far enough so that it's not exact copy, just like the others

I actually do remember this one. Maybe not from the time, but in a reprint book. Great strip.

    This is a totally new one to me.

    Fun fact, Academia Waltz, the strip that became Bloom County was largely inspired by Doonesbury.
