Top Ten Worst Comic Strips Ever

While the world gives us cool strips, like Bloom County, Pearls Before Swine, and Calvin and Hobbes, we get a few bad strips as well. If you think there's a strip I missed, feel free to add one. And th
The Top Ten
1 Pearls Before Swine

I don't want to vote for this to say what I really think, but here goes... I LOVE this strip. It might be *slightly* offensive to some in a select few instances, but I've never had a problem with it myself. The jokes are hilarious, and I am an enormous lover of puns, and this strip definitely has a lot of them (my favorite being about the "One-Ton Wonton Futon Juan Won").

It's not always funny anymore!

Ugly and odious.

2 Baby Blues
3 Sally Forth

The characters don't look bad, but the gags are really annoying. I never liked this strip.

4 Doonesbury

Doonesbury is the most asinine strip in the history of comics. He trashes Republican politicians, especially presidents such as Trump, Bush, Nixon, etc. No matter how corrupt Obama and Clinton was, he never had one negative thought about them. I never saw any humor in the 40 plus years in this stupid strip.

Not very funny, a feeble exercise in political partisanship

I follow politics, but this is boring. It has no charm.

5 Calvin and Hobbes

I'm sad I had to vote for this to share my opinion. This is the only strip that has never failed to make me laugh. Crwth, he IS intended to be obnoxious. I respect your opinion. Him being obnoxious is supposed to add to the humor. He is not overrated, if anything, he is underrated. But once again, that's just my opinion, and I respect yours.

If Calvin is intended to be obnoxious, he succeeded, and it's my right to dislike characters whom I find obnoxious. Of course "ugly" is subjective, but we're here to express our opinions. I value 2 qualities in a comic strip: cleverness and artwork. I don't forgive ugly or plain-looking characters.

Mediocre and immensely over-rated. Calvin is ugly and obnoxious. Hobbes is okay.

I think it's pretty good, but it's just my opinion and I respect yours.

6 Ballard Street

Ballard Street was the worst comic strip ever. I never once saw a funny one. Ever! Thankfully it was put out of its' misery earlier this year.

7 For Better or for Worse
8 Phoebe and Her Unicorn
9 Bloom County

Excellent, intelligent humor, though not for every audience.

Low-brow and tasteless.

10 Frazz
The Contenders
11 Bears In Love

This comic was basically trying to cash in on the trend of "cutesy" things that were popular in the 80s (Care Bears, Strawberry Shortcake, My Little Pony, etc.). It's worth noting that not once did the strip even attempt to tell a joke-the entire goal was to try and get people to buy stuff because the bears were cute.

12 Ctrl+Alt+Del

Used to be funny but since the infamous miscarriage strips (which spawned the "Loss" meme) it fell hard.

13 The Born Loser

I do not like this strip at all, it's very depressing, Brutus Thornapple is always picked on by his wife Gladys Thornapple and her mean mother-in-law Ramona Gargle are always picking on him and nagging him in much of the strips. I also don't like Hurricane Hattie O'Hara always picking on and bullying Wilberforce Thornapple and his father and her teacher. I do not like Rancid W. Veeblefester Brutus mean boss he's always criticizing Brutus and putting him down or getting him fired from his job and never giving him a pay raise, I wish he would retire from his job. I'm surprised this comic strip is still running in the Newspapers, if anything I want to see this strip retired. I do not like this title The Born Loser it's a negative title. This is the worst comic strip of all time. I'd rather read something funny instead with a better title like "The Born Winner" I hope this bad comic strip ends real soon because nobody likes it anymore.

Repulsive. Every character is a loathsome idiot. The artwork stinks.

14 Cyanide & Happiness

This is'nt a strip but more of a webcomic. This comic is just pointless by doing random adults doing something crappy.

15 Mutts
16 Marmaduke

Without a doubt the lamest, most consistently unfunny experience on the comics page.

Is pretty boring.

17 The Family Circus

Well, despite some kids asking dumb questions, the style was great and the circular panel was legit. Screw the box panel, I'll take the circle. Also, it was heartwarming, funny at the times, and sometimes dark. So this strip was popular but not that bad. Just imagine you see that fictional comic strip from Diary Of The Wimpy Kid: Dog Days and it still the same. No wonder why they hated the strip all because of making fun of religion, asking too much questions, etc. So I will give this strip a chance and make U.S Acres to be number one instead.

I don't know anyone who even likes this strip, really it's just kids asking really dumb questions.

Too much of the same joke drowning in cuteness.

The Family circus is the best By Nintendo

18 Mallard Fillmore

Makes no sense

19 Heathcliff

The dumbest comic strip ever

20 Cathy

What the hell is this?

Poorly drawn strip.

21 Prince Valiant

You have to go back years just to find a storyline

22 Peanuts in the 90s

It didn't even focus on Charlie Brown even though Schulz said that it should focus on him. It focused on that stupid beagle.

23 Frank and Ernest

One of the worst-drawn comics ever. The gags are mediocre.

24 Zits

Every strip has pretty much one of three punchlines: Jeremy is lazy, Jeremy is annoyed by his parents or Jeremy is a slob. The tired old gag of Jeremy being a millennial teenager needs to die.

I really like Zits. It is spot on about how teenagers live. We can all relate.
