I read the comic strips.............. something that I started doing before school age; in fact I could already read when I entered the first grade because of my exposure to comic books. Several of the strips are like old friends who I like to visit.
Most importantly: I do the Crossword Puzzle, Jumble puzzle, Hocus-focus puzzle, Sudoku puzzle, Wordy Gurdy puzzle and Word Warp puzzle. There are different cognitive mental exercises for each of these activities. Studies indicate that doing this sort of thing helps aging people maintain their mental acuity.
They are all on one page, but they are the main reason I subscribe to the Sun.
If the Sun isn't doing anything for you, why subscribe?

I too like the some of the comic strips. I also like the Sudoku puzzle. The front page is often interesting and I like some of the human interest stories. An example: The story about the man who has Parkinson's and gets up at 3am to go for a run. That was an inspiring story. But I just wonder if that's enough to justify all the time I put in reading the paper.
