Английская Википедия:Close to Home (comic strip)
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox comic strip Close to Home is a daily, one-panel comic strip by American cartoonist John McPherson that debuted in 1992.[1] The comic strip features no ongoing plot, but is instead a collection of one-shot jokes covering a number of subjects that are "close to home", such as marriage, children, school, work, sports, health and home life. "Home" achieved its greatest peak in popularity in the mid-to-late 1990s, when several newspapers picked up the strip to replace the retired The Far Side. As of 2021, it runs in nearly 700 newspapers worldwide.[2]
Controversy
A Close to Home strip published on February 21, 2020, depicting the Lone Ranger and Tonto in a bar, was deemed offensive and racist, leading some newspaper publishers to cancel the comic[3] and others to apologize to readers.[4]
