Gil: a comic strip about an 8-year-old boy
Gil is an eight-year-old boy who has a friend named Shandra and a nemesis named Morgan. Various strips show him at school, at home, or hanging out outside. Gil first appeared only on the web but it’s now in newspapers too. It’s written and drawn by Norm Feuti, who also does the strip Retail.
I think it’s often funny, and it references things like Iron Man, Star Wars, and Calvin and Hobbes.
I like this one about the space/time continuum:

Sometimes it’s slightly more serious, as in this one about Christmas gifts:
