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

Est. 1985

Extra, Extra!

Flashback

By Jimmy Johnson

I would have to admit the series of current A&J comics that began Tuesday in newspapers and on GoComics was inspired by this old favorite of mine from 2009. While situations and humor reappear constantly in a daily comic strip, I normally don’t go directly to old material for inspiration. I usually go to lengths to avoid repeating myself as much as possible, but when you’ve been at it as long as I have it isn’t easy. I suppose I shouldn’t let it worry me. I think we can assume Arlo and Janis get dressed for bed every night.
