We’ve gotten some calls and emails this morning from readers who missed Doonesbury in today’s comics.
Fear not, Doonesbury fans. The strip will be back.
Here’s the scoop: Doonesbury creator Garry Trudeau is taking off three months. Beginning March 31, we’re running Daddy’s Home in its place. It will run for five weeks. Beginning May 5, the comic strip Lio will run for the remaining six weeks of Trudeau’s vacation.
As for those who need a Doonesbury fix: In Sunday’s Opinions and Ideas section, Doonesbury “flashbacks” will run for the duration of Trudeau’s time off.

So goes Doonesbury, so goes my subscription. I can always get the Washington Post on the internet.
