Cast your vote for our next comic strip

Today we begin the second in our rotation of four comic strips as we look for a replacement for “B.C.” Readers may recall that we chose to discontinue “B.C.” after its creator, Johnny Hart, died earlier this year. “Lio,” the second strip in our rotation, is probably the most unusual in that it tells stories with images and no dialogue. It focuses on a young boy with an overactive, and at times warped, imagination. It will run daily through Aug. 24. You can rate “Lio” and the other candidates at spokesmanreview.com/survey/comics, or you can clip and mail the form on page B5. Thanks to everyone for your thoughtful feedback so far.
