Doctor Fun

Doctor Fun is still alive! He was one of the first humorists on the internet back in the Eldar Days (the Eldar Days were back when I was in grad school and most of you had never heard of this internet thingy).

I lost track of this about 10 years ago, so I'm pretty excited.

Enjoy!

Update: From the Doctor Fun FAQ

Is Doctor Fun the oldest comic on the Internet?
No. That would be
"Where the Buffalo Roam" by Hans Bjordahl. "Where the Buffalo Roam" started in 1991, and had its own Usenet group long before Doctor Fun came along, and is still running on the web.

Was Doctor Fun the first cartoon on the World Wide Web?
There you go! You've got it - Doctor Fun was the first cartoon on the World Wide Web.
Here's the
announcement from NCSA. (Of course, that link to the cartoon doesn't go anywhere now.)
