'Annie' Ends Print Run

American Voices • Entertainment • ISSUE 46•24 • Jun 17, 2010

On Sunday, after 86 years in print, comics page mainstay Annie—a strip about a little redheaded orphan and her dog Sandy—ran in newspapers for the last time. What do you think?

  • “To be published for 86 years and read for 11 is an accomplishment to be proud of."”

    Ken Smith –
    Boiler Operator

  • “I just hope they don't pull the weather section anytime soon. If the newspaper is missing not only Annie, but also the weather, I will have no reason to read the newspaper."”

    Ian Seamans –
    Unemployed

  • “Doesn't Daddy Warbucks own the Tribune? That fucker."”

    Deborah Halter –
