Herman Sundays

Jim Unger’s Herman Sundays is a long-running single-panel comic strip that has been syndicated by Andrews McMeel since 1982, offering a consistently wry and absurdist take on everyday life. Known for its minimalist, slightly off-kilter art style and deadpan humor, the series follows the misadventures of its perpetually bewildered, round-headed everyman protagonist. Unger’s singular vision as both writer and artist defined the strip’s enduring charm, making it a beloved staple of Sunday comics pages for decades. Its quiet, observational wit has kept it a quietly influential fixture in the world of newspaper cartooning.
