Old Tank McNamara strip

One of the comic strips I enjoy is Tank McNamara. Although I know nothing whatsoever about sports, I enjoy its snarky attitude and the interplay between Tank and his girlfriend, Angela.

I remember back when Tank first met Angela, there was a pretty cool strip. A bunch of Tank’s co-workers stopped the elevator and had a private talk with new-hire Angela, to the effect that Tank’s previous girlfriends hadn’t treated him the way he deserved to be treated, and that if she was going to start up with Tank, she’d better do better.

Where could I get a copy of that strip? It was two or three or four years ago, and I don’t think the online archive goes back that far. (Not to mention that the GoComics website is absurdly poorly-done)

How about writing or emailing the cartoonist? I bet he’d love to hear a request like that, especially if you repeat all the nice things you’ve said here.

I love that strip too. Do you remember the ones that ran when the priest pedophilia scandal broke in Boston? It’s a wonder the outrage burning in them didn’t set the sports pages on fire. Tank is one of my favorite cartoon characters.
