I just got directed to this today, I’m sure many of you have seen [Frazz](http://www.comics.com/comics/frazz/) before.  
I think it’s hysterical.

The site that drew my attention to Frazz had a poll going that I would like to re-enact here:

Do you think this comic is too intelligent to make it in mainstream outlets?  
Personally, I don’t think so, I’d like to see it in my local paper and I think it would do well.

What say you?

I read it in the Los Angeles Times every morning, and you can’t get more mainstream than that. It is a very intelligent and occasionally subtle strip. I like it.

Look and feel of Calvin and Hobbes.  
About time somebody brought them back.

Love Frazz. It’s been running in the Detroit Free Press for about a year, and just survived one of their periodic comic’s purges (alas, Tank McNamara did not make the cut), so I think it’s doing well.

Love Frazz. Miss Plainwell . . . (sigh)
