The website says "A new online era of The Far Side is coming! ". I am not sure if they could recapture Gary Larson's humor. I bet it is a release of the existing comics online.

When I was in 3rd grade we had to draw a comic for school. I drew one about a cat with a wooden leg and a piranha fish bowl.

No way it could be a coincidence.

He goes through stuff in the attic and rediscovers Hobbes

I’d love to see that as a graphic novel

Drop Dead Fred. You've been hanging around in 80's music threads to long:
