• The end of 2006 also saw the end of Foxtrot weekly comic strips. The comic strip's creator, Bill Amend, decided to move to a "Sunday only" format because it was time he "got out of the house and tried some new things". I've always found the strip charmingly goofy and didn't take itself to seriously. And after almost 20 years, at least Amend knew when to leave. How long must we endure Beetle Bailey and Hagar the Horrible? The final weekly strip is here.
