![]() Maybe your (polite) letter will help Teresa remain on GoComics.ĭisclosure: both GoComics and The Daily Cartoonist are subsidiaries of Andrews McMeel Universalįrog Applause will remain on GoComics. GoComics is Teresa’s only outlet for her comic creativity – no website, no Patreon. But those with 1/100th of the followers remain (for now) on the site. On the GoComics site are a number of features with a few hundred “followers.” Frog Appluase has been at GoComics for 14 years and has tens of thousands of followers, more than some (read: a lot) of the syndicated comics. Teresa’s collaborator on Shoecabbage is supporting the effort to keep FA on GC.Įven Andrews McMeel Syndicate honcho John Glynn has encouraged readers to implore GoComics to keep the strip on the site. I most emphatically urge the directors of the GoComics site to reconsider their decision.Īny response by the directorate will be appreciated. This strip is entertaining, thought-provoking, unconventional, and followed by many faithful readers- many of whom only come to GC for Frog Applause. ![]() The reasoning behind this decision is unclear. “It has come to my attention that GC intends to cancel the strip Frog Applause. It seems GoComics has sent her a notice saying they will be removing her strip and the archives on October 9, 2020.Ībove: Frog Applause © Teresa Burritt (via GoComics)Īs seen in the comments for September 21, 2020: On the flip side is Connie Sun deciding to take her characters into a different format, not leaving her time to continue a thrice-weekly comic strip.Ībove: Connie to the Wonnie © Connie Sun (via GoComics)įor the moment the Connie to the Wonnie archives remain at GoComics.įrom the other end of the scale is Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt. I’ll be offering free collected editions to everyone on my list.” My understanding is that the loss of The Conjurers is basically “no harm no foul.” GoComics wanted to reduce the roll call and Brian Anderson’s publisher wanted the free content removed.Įdit: Brian sends word that The Conjurers webcomic “will be available again soon and will always be free.” Adding: “People can sign up for my newsletter at my site. But still a popular game would bring eyes and clicks to the site. But, as far as I can determine (the archives disappear with the comics) the strip hasn’t been updated in months. Surprising since Angry Birds is a popular multi-media property. To be honest I am not familiar with most of these comics, but a couple comments… September has seen the following comics no longer appearing on GoComics:Īngry Birds, BFGF Syndrome, Bewly, The Best Medicine Cartoon, The Conjurers, The Creeps, Dragon Girl, The Gentleman’s Armchair, The Lost Bear, Lost Side of Suburbia, Microcosm, Pictures in Boxes, and Pie Comic. In the month since we last reported that GoComics was reducing the 500+ roster of its site, a dozen more comics have been dropped.
