When King Features revived the series in 2006, it ran this promotional copy:

Times may change, but the laughs are forever! Here are three "retro" gag panels from the King Features treasure chest: Laff-a-Day, Hubert by Dick Wingert and Mister Breger by Dave Breger. Older readers may get an extra chuckle from scenes of traveling salesmen, two-ton Chevies and women sporting funny hats.[2]

King Features made Laff-a-Day a part of its King Features Weekly Planet service.[3]
