No, that appears to be "Selections of classic The Far Side comics, updated daily."

You are correct. The Gary Larson waking up in Kansas sequence was so perfect I didn’t look at the 1995 trademark!

I thought that was new, too. Looks like there’s going to be some new content starting in 2020.

“And finally, beginning in 2020, and commemorating the fortieth anniversary of The Far Side, we will periodically unveil new work by the man himself! In truth, we really have no idea what might show up. But, on the other hand, what’s changed?”

HEY! No false alarms!!!

The 1995 copyright in the corner of that one was a hint. Of course, they're still stinking' funny!

Though I don't think I ever actually saw that one, I can still easily picture it. I told my wife and we shared a really big, good laugh. Thanks for posting, we needed that.

Hate to say it, but the new stuff doesn't quite do it for me.

My favorite took place in an apartment building. A huge monster was ripping people apart in one apartment while an elderly woman was banging on the ceiling with a broom in the apartment below.
