F Minus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
F Minus is a horizontally oriented single panel comic strip by Tony Carrillo, started when he was a sophomore at Arizona State University. It ran daily in The State Press, an independent newspaper at ASU, from 2002 until 2004, when Carrillo graduated. In an online mtvU strips contest with Scott Adams of Dilbert fame as member of the jury and with almost 200,000 people voting to find the best college comic strip, F Minus came in first place.[1]
Having won a development deal with United Features Syndicate through the contest, syndication of F Minus (in daily newspapers) began on April 17, 2006 in 75 newspapers throughout the United States.[2]
According to Tony Carrillo, most of the comics are about stupidity and losers. It doesn't feature any recurring characters or story lines, and is often compared to one of his favourites, The Far Side by Gary Larson.[2]
