Well, foo!


I knew it was coming and I had a strong suspicion that the wedding would be the grand finale . . . but today's episode of For Better or For Worse, arguably the best comic strip in print, is Lynn Johnston's last. My mornings are going to have a hole in them for some time to come, because I've been following the stories of Elly & John Patterson, their kids and their dogs for years and years, and Johnston's ability to personalize this family (based on her own) has been a grand adventure in storytelling.

With the greatest respect to Lynn Johnston, I've reproduced the final strip here. If I've violated copyright, I hope she accepts my apologies.

Oh, OMF OMF OMF...

And I had such high hopes for your taste. You... like the nauseating last couple of years of FBOFWosity? Blech.

Wow, you really have some shitty taste in comics. It's a good thing you make up for it in cocktails.
