A pithy comic strip about life, love, lust and puthy cats.

Est. 1985

Extra, Extra!

The Perfect Man

By Jimmy Johnson

Yesterday, July 29, was the anniversary of the debut of Arlo & Janis in newspapers. I’m not going to say how long ago that was, because it makes the strip and myself sound old, but the Worldwide Web was just a gleam in some programmers’ eyes. I did realize this: I can now say, for the first time, that I’ve been drawing the strip for more than half my life. In honor of this inauspicious event, I will be showing older material here all week long, maybe longer. It looks weird, but some of it actually is pretty funny. I hope you enjoy our Week of Restrospection!
