* {{Retool}}: Rivera took the strip in new directions on replacing Allen in 2020. Mark is now both more self-aware and self-consciously {{bumbling| dad}}. ''Woods & Wildlife'' has been bought out, so he now freelances for a handful of click-seeking websites. There have been character design overhauls as well, such as Doc being drawn heavier with a Wrestling/HulkHogan mustache. It's fair to say the changes have been controversial with longtime readers.

''Mark Trail'' is one of the PrintLongRunners of newspaper comics, first introduced in 1946, initially written and drawn by Ed Dodd (Jack Elrod succeeded Dodd in 1978, and James Allen in turn took over from Elrod in 2014). The comic focuses on Mark Trail, a photojournalist and outdoorsman for a magazine. His assignments always lead him into danger and misadventures in the Lost Forest National Forest. Joined by his friends and family there, most strips had him discovering some environmentally unfriendly evil-doer that he would punch out, and then tell about the endangered animal of the week.
