Yes.It’s left to the paste-up lunks downstairs at the contract printers whether to make it a ‘square’ page or fit it in somewhere difficult to read. Same deal goes for Doonesbury, Non-Sequitur and others of ilk. A royal PITA.. The local paper went from six pages of comics to four and then fell to one open folded sheet, with BIG ‘Peanuts’ "Garfield’ and FBOFW as the lead page, and they don’t dare delete Prince Valiant lest us oldsters storm their bunkers.
