Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for April 29, 2014

Thus, begins one of the strangest story arcs in Doonesbury history.

Is that Phred in the Hawaiian shirt?

@Kali39Yup, that’s Phred in his tourist outfit.

I was 3, so definitely new to me. But I am going to go out on a limb & say we will not get the entire arc unless it lasted only a week.

I thought that was Phred!

The Arc that concluded with “What do we have for the witnesses Johnny.”

Budding capitalists, eager to hire a lobbyist.By now, I’m sure they have several.

has this turned into a Doonesbury nostalgia link? Where can we go to see current cartoons?

Only most of the metropolitan area.

Reminds me of that joke I love:“The economy is so bad, Exxon had to lay off a half-dozen of their Senators.”

Thus begins the arc that brings Kim (Mikes second wife) to America. She is just a wee lass when she first appears.Yep, the Rosenthal family adopted Kim, if memory serves. After awhile, Kim was repeating slogans from fast food franchises (“creamy cole slaw!”).

Doonesbury was a lot more relevant back in 1973 …. it jumped the shark sometime in 80’s or 90’s. I don’t pay much attention to it anymore.

That’s OK, Johnny will still have prizes…..

What’s the rush? The fall of Saigon isn’t for another 2 years.

First panel profile says it is.? What is a first panel profile?
