Dear Brain Trust,

The (local, paper) newspaper that I subscribed to recently shut down its print operation. I basically subscribed for three things: local news, grocery coupons (paid for the subscription easily), and the comics page. I'm looking for an online replacement for the comics page.

I've been using comics.com, which has many of the comics I want to follow. (Nobody's going to have all, I know.) Their interface is kind of clunky, though; you see the comics one at a time and have to keep clicking "next". I'd prefer to see all comics for a single date on a single page, like in the newspaper. But I was, nonetheless, forging ahead with that -- and then today they redesigned their site and nothing works any more. I've reported the problems, but that's also a prod to find something better. It can be kind of a race: will they fix their site before I find something better?

Is there something better? My Google-fu seems to be having problems today. Here are some things I am not looking for:

  • web comics
  • subscriptions to individual strips via email or RSS
  • something I have to host myself
I want to go to some web site, sign in, click on something akin to "my comics", and get a page with today's strips (with a "previous" link to get to yesterday's, and so on). Any pointers?

I use gocomics.com, which gives me a big page of all my comics. I do pay $12/year for it, and I can't recall whether that's available for free.
