The Norm
Did I ever mention that I’m a huge fan of The Norm? No? Well, I should. I love this strip. It’s an important part of my daily routine. Michael Jantze (the artist) seems like a heckuva guy, too.
Back when I read newspapers, I read The Norm religiously. After I stopped reading papers daily, I still scrounged copies left on buses, solely so I could read this strip. You can imagine my delight at discovering The Norm online. Jantze is a pretty tech-savvy guy, too, and has built some great features on the site. Haven’t read it before? Check out the archive, the themed “E-Libraries,” and the Normathon (my favorite use of online time). Like what you see? Buy some stuff, or subscribe! This is online content I’m willing to pay for, especially since I don’t buy the local newspaper where it’s published.
