Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for August 27, 2020

Boring bring back Puddles and Bernice

JLC, DR, and JS?! Does Leslie adore those celebrities?

Gunther was right- Leslie Knox’s family is weird

And all of a sudden – Les is on board!

Magic words, I mean, magic names to Les…

.

Whodda thought?

Three’s company?

I happen to think that this will be a lot of fun, shows how much of a ham Les can be, how amazing hottie bets is and how good she and Gunther are with each other. I wonder if those A list stars follow Luann. Bet they do, or the names would not be mentioned.

And the Red Hat Ladies will be watching too!

ya know this may not be my type of thing but even i have to say how amazing how many people watch this when it’s someone doing this from home. and it’s not celebs well you tube for certain channels i mean. having said that i can’t say that i blame Les on this either

but if i knew that many were watching i’d not do it cause that’s just how i am.

Bets has a real handle on how this stuff works. She’s serious. Interesting plot – but of course many people do everything right and still don’t get rich.

This is not what is usually meant by “the worm turns” but that’s what I’m going with.

S0, Pitts definitely IS in Southern CA. All those celebs names…And the French medieval costume looks good on you, Les.

He caved faster than I thought he would.

So where do we go from here? We’ve had our talk on cosplay already. There isn’t much more to be said about it except to get into the nitty gritty of resources, tailoring skills, fabrics, etc. I excpet we will have two more days if Leslie mugging for the camera (And I can’t imagine Jamie Lee Curtis, etc) tuning into a podcast by someone with 250 or so followers.) What will next week hold, a pivot to how Tiffany is screwing up her life without Ann to blame? Bernice sneaking out of the house to see Jack without Luann knowing? Maybe Luann will try-out at community theater and runs into Fay ausitioning for a child’s role in the play? Or Bets and her appendage could Leslie to a cosplay convention and introduce him to some of their fan friends. Odds are 1:10 against any of that happening. More likely next week will feature Luann and Bernice fighting over shelf space in the bathroom.

Even Jaden’s “After Earth” isn’t as awful as that hat!

The hat. Might be a stretch, but with that hat and hair and his long nose, Les could play Cyrano.

Les… You may make fun of cosplay all you want. But that hat and wig combo does kinda suit you…

No love for Wil Wheaton?

Hey Les, is there another hat there? Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close up.

I just want Less of Les. Gunther and Betts are fun.

I love that kind of relationship, Gunther and Bets

Kind of thought Led would see the light. Even if it’s only dim star light.

Jaden Smith? Please. That guy has no talent.

Is she saying that she believes that in a 2000 person audience those stars are part of their audience?

Nerds of a feather flock together.

Um, no. I doubt that those stars will be on unless Gunther drops his underwear and we get to see what the fuss is all about!

Does anyone know on ArcaMax how you jump back weeks or months without having to tap the BACK ARROW one day at a time?There is no calendar to bring up like here on Go Comics

And coming soon, Monday a NEW weekly strip that doesn’t advance anything will take place!

I’ll repeat my comment from Tuesday!

Last week the Evans’ made Luann look foolish with Jack and Bern providing snarkisms. Who will get “the treatment” this week? Probably Gunther; maybe Les (if he deigns to try a costume).

Called it!

And this is how Les started his path for become “King Of Cosplay”… I would love to see this anime♡. It’s nice to see that Gunther has stopped fussing about social media and all the people who will see him.

LOL! “star” Jaden Smith! :-D

So we’re going to see Les preening for the camera, getting in the way, and the fans liking it, thus ruining the experience for Gunther, right? Didn’t the Simpsons already do this?

Les with a sense of humor!!! My what is this world coming too.

Haven’t heard from sallymargaret in a few days. One of my favorite commenters. Hope she’s OK!?!?

2000 people with those celebrities – I doubt it.

IDK, Les could make a pretty good d’Artagnan.

Les is more.

A full on toothy grin from Les?! Who would of thunk it!

Actually, I think it’s sort of sweet! I think Les secretly WANTS to belong.

I’ve never been to Comic-Con ( even though San Diego is just down the freeway from me) but I still find this story interesting

Wow! Leslie Knox looks like a new man in that musketeer hat and wig! Maybe he has found his calling: Hollywood could use a new Errol Flynn Bad Boy….

Annnnd now Leslie becomes either an accidental internet star or viral meme……

Who is Jaden Smith?

Les must thing that camera is a baby as he’s acting like a babbling idiot.

Somehow I can’t see someone like Les being impressed by that list.

Les did learn something from his mom. How to be a shallow opportunist.

Ah! Game changer! Lol! Who knew Les was a fan of anyone’s! ;-o

So…. they are making a Cos-play video. This sure suggests that Gunther is growing ever more comfortable being a social media presence.

Other thoughts:

1. Might we assume Gunther, with his past proclivities for sewing and tailoring…. that he has MADE these Cos-play costumes? Well, perhaps not the Uhura costume Bets is wearing since she seemed to have that for a long time. If Gunther did sew his Batman costume…. I would have to say he did a damn good job of it.

2. I may not have paid sufficient attention…. what does the “bc” on the green screen stand for? And, if it is a known symbol, what is the meaning of the up arrow on the “b”?

3. Les, to me, looks like he needs to have Gunther make him a replica of the “puffy shirt” that Jerry Seinfeld once wore on “Seinfeld” to complete his look.

As Beetlejuice said: “It’s SHOWTIME !!” :)

wanna make a person act like a fool? …point a camera at them.

Jaden Smith couldn’t act his way out of a wet paper bag.(how do you ruin a Jackie Chan movie?)

Can anyone tell me what happened to Steve McGarry’s “Biographic?” Last Sunday it was no longer in my comics list , and it is not in the A-Z list either.

An actual grin from Les! First time I think I’ve seen anything other than a scowl. It looks good on you, Les. Lighten up and smile more, and Tiffany might find something attractive about you.

I always thought sound check was: 1,2,4…1,2,4 :D

2,000 is actually a small audience for something like this.

I dare say Les may find niche of friends and activity that he hadn’t known previously, all good if it comes to pass.

I know it’s just me but, Les looks a little like Pru with facial hair, and a poor grin.

Guenther has definitely come a long way:

A little effort and he could totally pull off a Cavalier persona…

tomorrow: does Les go full swashbuckler? Does Bets have to explain to him what the word means? Does Les yell “ACTION!” ? stay tooned !!!

Late to the party, but I bet Gunth screws up the nerve to kiss Bets in this story line. It’ll be okay ‘cuz they’re in costume. He can always claim it was Batman kissing Dr. Crusher, or whoever Bets is.

Way to chase away the viewers, Leslie!

My wife has a couple of TV/movie stars that follow her Instagram art page. They’re people too, or at least some of them are.

One time a writer kicked me off her blog.

Meh… this was too predictable

This looks like it’s going to be a fun arc.

Is Les bucking to be this strip’s version of Reggie Mantle?

Welcome to the bandwagon.

Hey Les, you make a great Steve McGarrett.

Apparently “Danno” doesn’t translate into Spanish?!

And Hispanics do a sound check differently ( “1,2,3” instead of “1,2,1,2” ).

who woulda known. :-/

Ugh. Boring.

You just have to explain things to Les in terms he can understand.

Dream big Bets!!

It isn’t the raw count, but who counts.
