No claim to fame for this comic; mere existence as a syndicated comic does not mean it merits more than a line in the Universal Press Syndicate article. Shii (tock) 06:06, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep sources are thin, but syndicated comics are notable more often than not. There are a couple sources in the article, plus this. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 06:11, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- All the sources seem to say is that the comic exists and is promoted by its syndicate; there's no evidence it's more notable than comics without articles, e.g. "The Elderberries" etc. Shii (tock) 06:36, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I never knew that so many newspapers run unlabeled advertisements when they start printing a new comic strip. I hope this doesn't affect the actual judgment of the closing admin. Shii (tock) 01:45, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
