This isn't news: Newspapers are dying. Which means that newspaper comic strips are dying as well. Online greats like xkcd, The Perry Bible Fellowship, and Achewood  offer digital satisfaction, but how long will it be until you can no longer pick up a newspaper, leaf past the news, and arrive at the comics?

Rather than sweat out how many days the world has left until Marmaduke is put to sleep and Cathy stops complaining, it's best to honor the the greatest cartoons to have ever been black and white and read all over (and the ones in color, too).

These are the 25 Best Sunday Comic Strips of All Time.
