A new lineup of comics and puzzles debuts Saturday in The Times and Democrat — and we’re thrilled to have you take a look.
You’ll notice our refresh includes bringing back beloved comics, adding features that might be brand new to you, and replacing others that were previously in our pages. Our new print portfolio is loaded with favorite classics “Blondie,” “Beetle Bailey” and others, as well as a new Sheffer Crossword, King Classic Sudoku and more.
Blondie is returning to the comics.
We’ve also enhanced the comics and games on our website by adding two platforms that promise to grab — and keep — your attention.
Visit www.TheTandD.com and you’ll find:
- Comics Kingdom, which includes 145 updated strips and timeless vintage comics, including “Dick Tracy,” “Popeye” and “Prince Valiant.”
- Puzzle Palace, a showcase of 19 interactive crosswords, word games and other tricky brain teasers including Diagonal Sudoku, Word Sleuth and Dynamic Doublecross crossword.

There’s a lot to be excited about.
Local newsgathering has never been more important. Despite so many avenues to get information, people are quite skeptical. Trusted sources, it seems, are hard to find.
Funny pages, horoscopes and crosswords have been a staple of newspapers for generations, providing fun, comfort and entertainment to readers of all ages. Over the years, we’ve come to learn that our loyal readers and subscribers steadfastly rely on us to provide the best and most current offerings available. And we’ve continually transformed to meet those needs while always working to reach and engage with new readers.
Today’s changes allow us to continue the crucial mission of investing in essential and memorable journalism for our communities. That’s a commitment our journalists take seriously every day. We’re extraordinarily honored to play that role.
We bring you the news from Orangeburg and proximity that you can’t find elsewhere. In just the last week, the focus has been on a deadly weekend on the roads locally, with coverage that goes beyond just the basics and into the personal impact of multiple deaths.
We appreciate your support of local journalism. And we thank you for reading.
