This is a placeholder for newspaper comic strips that take a week or two or more in a rerun mode week or two or more. This excludes newspaper comic strips in indefinate rerun mode (i.e. Peanuts, For Better or For Worse, daily Doonesbury, Amazing Spider-Man, and of course, rerun abused 7 days a week that I wish Andrews-McMeel would officially retire from all newspapers for good Get Fuzzy) and off and on a few days a week in rerun Pickles (which has its own thread).

This week for the January 18-23, 2021 week: Baldo is in 2015 reruns, and Pearls Before Swine due to the pulled bad timing week long storyline is in 2018 reruns. The New York Daily News isn't carrying these rerun week strips this week and moved Zits temporary from the first page to the second page of the 2 page comics pages (daily).

Attention ZITS Clients:
Jim Borgman and Jerry Scott are taking a two-week vacation.
Two weeks of dailies for March 8-13, 2021, and March 15-20, 2021.
Two Sunday pages for March 14, 2021, and March 21, 2021.
Reader favorites from 2017 that have been personally selected by Jim and Jerry.
So assume the New York Daily News won't be running Zits during their vacation weeks?

This Feb. 1-6, 2021 week Candorville was rerunning all week 2018 and 2019 episodes - some with tweaks to add in face mask coverings.

Yes, the New York Daily News is not running the Zits reruns this week, hence the "Zits is on vacation" blurb.

Last month and this month, the Six Chix comic strip had reruns for the Tuesday artist (Binaca, I guess):
February 2, 2021 is originally from April 28, 2020.
February 9, 2021 is originally from June 2, 2020.
February 16, 2021 is originally from February 11, 2020.
February 23, 2021 is orignally from March 10, 2020.
And Sunday, March 14, 2021 is a rerun from May 24, 2020.

Some updates.
Mutts of 5/2 might be a repeat in some newspapers because of this:
Attention MUTTS Clients:
King Features Syndicate advises that the May 2 Sunday strip centers around the Bidens’ dog Major and his life as a shelter dog. Because of the current delicacy of this topic, we understand that this comic may not be right for all communities. If you prefer, an optional replacement has been made available, chosen by Patrick McDonnell himself. Please contact Customer Service if you would like the replacement strip.
Thank you,
King Features Editorial
Also Curtis will be in repeats next week.
Attention CURTIS Clients:
Due to unforeseen circumstances, reprints have been issued for the CURTIS dailies for release 4/12, 4/13, 4/14, 4/15, 4/16 and 4/17.
New original work is expected to resume after this date.

Updating the "Curtis" rerun slate:
The 7/25 Sunday strip was a rerun from 2010 and this week they are rerunning strips from 2007 both instances of course were when Curtis was still wearing his original hat.
I really hope this is the last week of Curtis reruns for a while.

Besides Mutts, Curtis, Dog Eat Doug, Daddy's Home, and Prickily City in reruns this 7/26-7/31/2021 week: Candorville had a full week of reruns.

You wouldn't know these WERE reruns, which is much less the case with,

Thank you,

So we can assume the New York Daily News will not be running Zits this week or next.

Attention CURTIS Clients:
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the CURTIS dailies for September 13-18, 2021, will be reprints.
Thank you,

As for Grand Avenue after a rerun week last week, it is still going with fresh strips as of today (9/13/2021), so far the only newspaper comic strip to end this 2021 year is Buckles. (Though Doodles may be next? What about Get Fuzzy's still rerun abused 7 days a week fate?)

Meanwhile, this week's Curtis reruns are from 2006.
Not only do the reruns feature Curtis wearing his original hat (as he's only been wearing the new hat since Christmas 2019) but they also feature mom Diane's previous hairstyle.
Seriously I think King Features chooses the Curtis repeats whenever Ray Billingsley is unable to do new ones. Who on Earth would select reruns from 15 years ago?

Besides Rubes and Half Full and Mutts (with 1 month to go for the rerun hiatus for this latter mentioned strip at least), Candorville was in 2019 reruns this November 8-13, 2021 week.
