I don’t think this runs afoul of Rule 1, but that may depend on how you define the terms. Here’s how I’m defining them:

1. Successful - Has produced at least one hard copy collection that is likely to be found in a brick and mortar bookstore. Has been syndicated in at least 75 daily papers. (Yes, that’s an arbitrary number that I pulled from… you know.)
2. Most recent - measured from time of initial syndication.

The most recent I can think of is Pearls Before Swine (Dec 31, 2001). What beats that? Anything so recent that I’m actually breaking Rule 1 by asking the question and my post should be deleted and I should be banned or at least cautioned?
