The Boondocks was a daily syndicated comic strip written and originally drawn by Aaron McGruder that ran from 1996 to 2006. Created by McGruder in 1996 for Hitlist.com, an early online music website, it was printed in the monthly hip hop magazine The Source in 1997. As it gained popularity, the comic strip was picked up by the Universal Press Syndicate and made its national debut on April 19, 1999. A popular and controversial strip, The Boondocks satirizes African-American culture and American politics as seen through the eyes of young African American radical Huey Freeman. McGruder's syndicate said it was among the biggest launches the company ever had.

I have been able to obtain a copy of the "best of" the boondocks' guest book entries from Aaron's old website.

I am leaning towards posting them as comments for the day's strip. But they have nothing to do with that specific strip.

Should I do them as their own post, or a comment?

Over in !exo@discuss.online I post the author comment, which may or may not be related to the comic itself. I don't think it detracts from the post even if it's not really related. Here's an example

Hey guys, I’m playing Pandemic Legacy and I was the first to eradicate the red virus so now I get to name it! Let me know if you have any good exocomics-related names :D

If you don’t know what Pandemic Legacy is then shhh don’t worry.
