The Richmond Times-Dispatch will no longer publish the comic strip “Non Sequitur,” effective today.

On Sunday, our Comics section included a “Non Sequitur” strip by Wiley Miller that contained a vulgar rebuke of President Donald Trump. The same strip ran in many newspapers across the country.

The writing, which said “Go f- — yourself, Trump,” was small and tucked in the bottom corner of the second panel of a strip that encouraged readers to color in its panels. It wasn’t until Monday when a reader pointed out the language to us that we knew about it.

The Sunday Comics section in The Times-Dispatch is assembled by a vendor, and the comic strip itself is sent to the vendor by syndicate Andrews McMeel. Because the Comics sections for Sunday, Feb. 17, and Sunday, Feb. 24, have already printed, “Non Sequitur” will not be replaced on Sundays until March 3.

On Monday, Miller issued a statement apologizing for the comic, saying he produced it about eight weeks ago and had forgotten that he included the vulgar language.
