If this were Funky Winkerbean, tomorrow’s strip would feature Pammy and Jeffy in a feeding frenzy downstairs at Montoni’s.
A Funky Winkerbean story arc last Fall featured the closing of Montoni’s and an auction of all assets. During the penultimate week of the strip, Montoni’s unexpectedly reopened with a brand-new fleet of shiny pizza delivery vehicles, all warmed up and ready to navigate wintry roads the weather services advised drivers to stay off.
So, is Montoni’s open for business in the Crankiverse? With the merger of the two strips and all the Timemop nonsense, who knows? ¯\(ツ)/¯ (“It’s called writing!”)
It would be interesting to see how Dan Davis’s portrayal of Monotoni’s differs from Chuck Ayers’s vision. Would the pizza still resemble a yellowish triangular blob with black chunks? Would Davis make the characters hold the pizza in the peculiar Ayers manner? A hot pizza lying flat in the palm with all four fingers curled around the crust must be incredibly awkward. Especially if the pizza is scalding hot or flops over, causing all the toppings to slide off and land in your lap.
