This Sunday’s strip of _For Better or Worse_ had a little more strip than usual. A week ago _Gasoline Alley_ had a woman taking off her clothes. A month ago there was a _Beetle Bailey_ strip where Miss Buxley apparently propositioned Beetle. Is it just me or are the comics getting raunchier?

Rumor has it that if you subscribe to [comics.com](http://comics.com)’s _premium_ service that you get to see Sunday’s (ahem) “strip” from a verrry different point of view. 😉

And in today’s “Classic Peanuts” rerun, Lucy asks Charlie Brown if she can put on her bikini. Plus, the “Born Loser” is not wearing pants. And Garfield is _completely naked_. :eek: 😉

No, no no… that’s \*\*[Little Annie Fannie](http://www.closetmonster.net/comics/lafannie.html) \*\*!

Also, even the Archie gang are getting into (or perhaps out of) it… check out **[Veronica Lodge](http://www.retrocrush.com/archive2004/veronica/)**.
