Clarissa ruins Thanksgiving

Clarissa ruins Thanksgiving is the earliest known comic of the series, coming out in 1999. It is a single page long. It is occasionally reposted during the the holidays.

Summary
The first comic in the Clarissa series introduces the Crotty family as the set down for Thanksgiving dinner. But Clarissa is an ungrateful little brat.

Inspiration
Jason Yungbluth stated that "Clarissa" was inspired by a movie called "Something About Amelia", a movie from the 80's in which Ted Danson plays a man who molests his daughter. Yungbluth notes that unlike today, the movie ends with the idea that the family can be healed through therapy.
