Pearls Before Swine is a comic strip written and drawn by Stephan
Pastis. It has only been in the newspapers since 2002. If you're not
reading it, you're missing out on the most creative and entertaining
products in a medium diluted with fluff like Dennis the Menace,
Marvin and Blondie.
Created many years ago while Pastis was still a practicing attorney, the cast of Pearls has since bashed Cathy and Garfield, been in a labor dispute, threatened Pastis and found Osama bin Laden hiding out in the Family Circus household. Oh, and let's not forget the time Pig got breast implants. 
This site is an effort to promote Pearls Before Swine to the masses.
Inside you will find a character guide that references every
character's appearance throughout the strip's history. Any
recurring themes and multi-strip storylines are also carefully
detailed, especially Zebra's efforts to thwart consumption by the
crocodiles.
