I wonder how people would react if “Desperate Housewives” turned into a programme about skateboarding or if Hawkeye in “M.A.S.H.” suddenly started a cookery school.
This isn’t a case of violence against pacifism, it’s about changing a long running character. Andy Capp is who he is. Any other way, he is NOT Andy Capp.
These are relevant comments about the comic strip. If I want to get annoyed I go to a certain other strip and read the lovey dovey chocolateboxy conversations that would be better suited to Facebook or a chatroom.
We are trying to save this strip from change. Think what happened to Dick Tracy once.
i like #6’s idea.i wish we could have reruns of the old Andy running next to the new. i like them BOTH. as a person that has cleaned up his act, i must tell you, the journey has had its funny points.

Borrow £10…? Must be for gambling; that little money won’t buy much beer these days.

Why don’t you all take the dispute somewhere else. Tired of trying to read comments and stumbling onto your disagreements about a comic strip.

“Lend” is a funny word. Sometimes it actually means “give”.

I bet there was a glimmer in Flo’s eyes in the second panel.
Then back to her scowl. Flo’s face today is priceless but NOT as priceless as the one yesterday.

Looking at Andys nose he might be going back to normal…

I don’t like Doonesbury, never did. The political strips are good places for “sniping”, don’t you think?
