I swear, this is the most blackly humorous mainstream comic strip I know of without being autobiographical. The weak-willed martyrdom and self-centered, failed at life, in-law leaches just make you teeth hurt. Ed Stein has a dark place in his soul to create these folks. They’re real close to being not funny, more a cautionary tale. But it probably reflects reality for way too many people. I know this. Life is too danged short to be Sam.
