All comic pages contain thirty day archives, with complete archives available with a subscription to My Comics Page.

[edit] Feature pages

Universal Press Syndicate comics are arranged into feature pages which display the current comic strip of the day with a thirty day archive. Often, other features such as descriptions of the characters of the comic strip, information about the cartoonist, and links to other feature pages recommended for fans of that particular comic are often included as well. An example of a featured page can be seen in the screenshot at right.

In addition to the contents of the page, feature pages allow visitors to join a mailing list that will have that comic e-mailed directly to them on a daily basis. Only one comic is allowed per e-mail address with the free plan. Users who wish to receive more must sign up for My Comics Page.
