First this horrid design, now the comics are several hours late every day, and to top it off, nearly every story is Palin or teenage vampires for middle-age women.

You'll notice I switched my account off of automatic renewal. I imagine I'm not the only one.

Oh, but Bolling is still awesome. As are Keef and Tom T.

You haven't even given this family a chance to know who you really are. I suspect you are underestimating them a great deal. They may treat you differently if you come out as a non-believer, but I suspect they will love you just the same. If they don't, they aren't what they say they are. And I also suspect you'll find more than a few allies within the family who see things about the same way you do. Start with the teenagers, they are usually pretty bored by the whole Catholic thing.

Oh, and most estimates put the percentage of atheists in the U.S. at about 10 percent, so you aren't as alone as you think.

Stop feeling sorry for yoursef and start being yourself.

Just in case Salon forgot, THE NEW FORMAT SUCKS!!!!

Good one. this is right up there with "what's next, Star Trek babies?"

Leave our childhood memories alone, Hollywood, and that goes for you too, hipster writers sucked into Hollywood.

I could sure go for a Friday comic. Surely there is something out there worth the additional click to enlarge.

Broadsheet is calling her a role model, not me. But I guess if you don't read any closer than you listen to music, Rihanna must be tops!

It's about opening comics. Sure, we can keep praying to God-man to have our comics immediately available in a size we can read, but if he does that, what will we learn? There must be suffering and humility and strife, or else men learn nothing. Thank you Salon for humbling us so with your format, which allows us to work hard to achieve the things we desire.

If there WAS a photo of Simpson and her breasts, it would have to have a "click to enlarge" link, as the comics on Salon do now.

So, wait, fearless means going back to the man who hits you? And letting someone else write a song about it? That ends in a gunshot????

It's too late to dress up like a superhero, Rihanna, you wimped out and did the dumbest thing possible. You are a terrible role model. No amount of makeup and leather can change that.

And yeah, no actual talent to be found here.

It says a lot about your web design when people are saying it's better to use the mobile version. Serously? I have to come to your site, then switch to the mobile version to read a freaking comic?

And yes, asking people to click to enlarge when they've already clicked TO GO TO THE PAGE THE COMIC IS ON is beyond stupid. Come on Salon, you can do better than this.

Great comic, horrible web design.

Did it really not occur to anyone at Salon to ask a reader if he or she could read the cartoons in the new format? And why in the world would you make someone enlarge what is supposed to be the featured item on any one page? That is just stupid.

Collossal fail on the new format,guys.

No, James Caan's ghost is still not funny. The panels one is chuckle-worthy, though.

The problem is that there weren't cellphones around when most parents could have taught the foolish not to do this. The scary thing is that the first generation of parents who will have the opportunity to teach their kids not to do this probably won't see anything wrong with it.

Cone pitched for the Yankees too. Why only mention the Mets?

It doesn't matter what you call it, when you lose yours it hurts like hell.

You got the meandering part right, Smurf. What her point is, I have no idea.

And Durian is right. Helping a few sick kids is great, making generations of children around the world obese is not. I suspect McDonald's efforts are like Lay's feeble attempts to help, a drop in a colossal empty bucket.

You know, I hate high ticket prices, astronomical player salaries, taxpayer-funded stadiums, steroids and all that as much as anybody, but as for why the Average Joe would fork over $50 for a ticket and $20 for food, etc.? Because it's fun, that's why. There's still not much out there that's as fun as spending a day at a ball game with friends or family.

And for "the rest of us" there's minor league sports and "fringe" (in the U.S.) sports like soccer if you don't want to spend a fortune. And those games are fun too.

Good cartoon. But I think some of you ought to actually go to a game and see just how much fun it is, especially the Orlando resident who thinks the Magic are a losing team. (Way to prove you have no idea what you are talking about!)

Just like the tower and cave obviously represent what we all know they represent, this "third gender" also obviously represents anyone who doesn't conform neatly to the first two.

Not a very nice cartoon.

Please trade Epic-Brutal report for James Caan's ghost. The ghost thing is lame. When people are on here defending and explaining it for you, it's not funny.

No, this is just a cartoonist having a bad day. Or week, or whatever. Though I do get a kick from the high-minded folks who defend it as a slate cleaner for future gags.

Lay off the weed, Ruben.

A cartoon is an oversimplification? Wow, you really nailed that one, Sherlock, I mean Poco. Geez.

And Deal or No Deal was cancelled how long ago? Months of vacations and this was the big comeback idea?

But it needs and Epic/Brutal report.

I assume some point was made in there somewhere. Maybe.
