Press Release Body = Brian Anderson\'s \"Dog Eat Doug\" and Aaron McGruder\'s \"The
Boondocks\" are the newest comic strips to join the ArcaMax Publishing Funnies page
and newsletter variety.

The ArcaMax Funnies ( http://www.arcamax.com/comics ) section is a popular part of
the family-friendly publisher\'s Web site. A free e-mail newsletter for each of the
site\'s 17 comics is available from ArcaMax -- where you\'ll also find \"Garfield,\"
\"Doonesbury,\" and \"Family Circus.\"

\"We\'ve been adding new comic strips to our site fairly regularly,\" says ArcaMax CEO
Scott Wolf, \"based on what people want to see. We\'ve had several requests for both
\'The Boondocks\' and \'Dog Eat Doug,\' and now our readers can get them free every
day.\"

\"Dog Eat Doug,\" Brian Anderson\'s daily comic strip about a baby and his puppy, is
already popular among parents and pet lovers. The characters are inspired by
Anderson's own young son Doug and Labrador retriever Sophie. Since debuting online
in 2005, \"Dog Eat Doug\" has enjoyed a steadily-growing fanbase, and is now
syndicated in newspapers across the country.

On the other end of the spectrum, the controversial daily comic strip \"The
Boondocks\" also has many readers, consisting of fans who embrace the comic\'s
sociopolitical message, and curious readers who disagree with it or aren\'t sure what
to make of it. Debuting in a college newspaper in 1997, \"The Boondocks\" quickly
became a favorite in hip-hop magazines, and then in national newspapers. The strip
has produced several print collections, as well as an animated series.

Wolf adds that by adding both of these comic strips, ArcaMax is \"attempting to reach
a variety of people. We run comics such as \'B.C.\' and \'Family Circus,\' but we also
have readers who enjoy \'Doonesbury.\' There are so many different styles of comic
strips and cartoons out there, and we want to offer something that everyone will
enjoy.\"

The ArcaMax Funnies page also includes free jokes updated daily.
