Gary Larson just shared his first new Far Side comics in over 25 years on his website

Fans of daily desk calendars everywhere rejoice: Gary Larson has made a surprise return to the much beloved, surreal, cow-heavy Far Side universe. Earlier this week, Larson quietly posted a handful of new, single-frame comics on his website—his first new public work within the series in over two-and-a-half decades—and they thankfully seem just as oddball as ever.

Larson’s last entries in the series came back in 1995 after a fifteen-year syndicated newspaper run, although according to a post on his site, he never entirely gave up drawing weird-ass shit for friends and family. “Despite my retirement, I still had intermittent connections to cartooning, including my wife’s and my personal Christmas card…Once a year, I’d sit myself down to take on Santa, and every year it began with the same ritual: me cursing at, and then cleaning out, my clogged pen.”
