Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for June 11, 2023

This reminds of that ARTHUR episode where D.W. told Arthur and Buster her own version of Homer’s ODYSSEY in her own, imaginative, four-year-old way.

Sounds like she took one element from every fairy tale she ever heard and mashed them all together.

Welcome back Shannon! I hope you made out like a bandit with the Tooth Fairy. ;)

So tomorrow… will Kip be Tiff’s roomie or not??

She doesn’t need anybody to tell her a story.

Brad’s trying. He’ll make a good dad.

Aww, Shannon lost her two front teeth, and she doesn’t even lisp.

OK…..

Somebody please backtrack.

Is that missing tooth something new?

I think it is great that Shannon has such a vivid imagination! I also think it is great that Greg & Karen keep Brad, Toni and Shannon around at least on Sundays!!!

Glad little Shannon is back on the scene..Love that bratty kid.

A story?

No problem.

Brad?

Tell Shannon the Major Payne version of the “Little Engine that Could.”

She’s a creative pro.

Check out Spanky from the Little Rascals telling a story about Tarzan to the even littler kids. The short is called “Forgotten Babies” and it’s from 1933.

Looks like someone lost a tooth, or I never noticed it before in P2 (⁠☞⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°⁠)⁠☞

Shannon’s hair just gets worse with every appearance.

“Once upon a time was a little girl who was too clever by half and ended up getting swatted…”

G&K have been “aging” Shannon bit by bit – the first clear sign being when she finally quit the “Bwad” thing. Now she’s missing a tooth. I wonder what’s next – will Shannon finally start kindergarten? Will she start being less demanding and more considerate and drop her destructive ways? Will she finally start noticing that her dad has basically abandoned her?

Brad has the worst marriage in the world of comics. Now, that’s where they need better writing. Much, much better writing.

Shannon has a wonderful imagination that mixes everything she knows, she’s always so believable as a child. I really like her and ots so obvious that Brad loves her. It’s nice to see that she’s changing her teeth, she’s growing and it’s so natural and so tender.

All I want for crifmas ish my two front teef …

Tough crowd!

‘Harry had a magic w -’

No dirty stories there Brad, she’s only 6 you know

Ahh—I think Hans Christian Andersen did it better!!

“ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz” The Count and, of course, Our Dearest Ann❤️Eiffel who, btw, could tell a much better story than that. And will. Unless, of course, there is something in it for our Belived Ann❤️Eiffel. Ann❤️Eiffel isn’t a “Kiss and Tell” kind of girl… if the price is right if you know what The Count means and The Count thinks you do. >:). See ya’ in church. The Count and Delicious Ann❤️Eiffel. ❤️

“There once was a girl from Nantucket…”

Tell her the plot of “Titus Andronicus.”

Will Brad and Toni have their own Shannon someday?

My grandmother could tell stories like that, just making them up and letting the characters write the script.

Did Shannon lose a tooth or does she have a piece of spinach stuck to her tooth? If lost tooth, when and did Greg do an arc on it?

Once upon a time they lived happily ever after. The end.

That makes one of us :-[

“Love that bratty kid.” That oxymoronic phrase warms my heart. Thanks. We do miss her, particularly now that our young adult characters are pretty hot and heavy. Both Luannverse trends are hilarious, but seeing Shannon interact with adults generally, and particularly with Brad and Toni is a special part of it.

Love the “I’m It” shirt! Now Brad needs a “You’re It” shirt to match.

Watch it, Brad. The lawyers for JK Rowling, her publisher, and, Warner Bros. Discovery are listening.

Derivative crap

This sounds a little bit like every child’s story I’ve ever listened to. Where does such a great imaginations go to as we age?

Shannon is another character that needs to be kicked to the curb.

So this provides a bit of insight on the timeline… Shan’s what, 6-9 years old now.. When did she first appear, and what age was she then?

He’ll never top her story…

The shape of Brad’s head has changed.

But how long did it take the Evanses to make up the story?

Yeah, Shannon, you definitely ARE an “IT”.

Why does Shannon need someone to tell her a story, when she seems to do just fine by herself.

the S & H fell off her shirt..

I’d love to see what stories she comes up with when she gets all her teeth

This is a sweet and funny cartoon today. Shannon is demonstrating her active imagination and she is not about to be fooled by Brad’s rehashing of Harry Potter. What he needs to do is surprise her and say that Harry had a magic walrus and explain how he meets a girl named Shannon who happens to speak fluent walrus and then….. I guarantee he will have her attention!

… and back to the latest episode of Tiffany and the Kipster tomorrow!

another budding writer and now we have a more firm handle on Shannon’s age, ~6 and in 1st grade. She has probably lost other teeth beside the front one now missing.

Don’t have a cow.

Tag.

She’s it.

Wow, Shannon almost won me over with a moment that was cute and authentically child-like. But then? Bam! She was back to shoot down Brad. We missed you, demon child.

Shannon’s now ready for a game of “Tag” or “Hide and Seek”!

Careful there Brad … Shannon’s an “Information Technologies” person!!!She might introduce a virus into your computer software.

Somebody has a future in children’s books.

Do Brad and Toni have legal custody of Shannon? Will they ever?

When I was a youngster, I asked my grandmother to make up a story for me. She told me the story of The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse. I was so impressed. Knowing that she’d grown up on a farm herself, I assumed it was quasi-autobiographical. (Though, at that tender age, I had no idea what quasi-autobiographical meant.) I was quite impressed by her creativity until she later presented me with a storybook of The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse and I discovered it was one of Aesop’s fables. I think that began my personal policy of wanting to see the receipts whenever a grown-up told me anything.

I wonder how well Shannon would get along with “One Big Happy’s” Ruthie.

Yo, tooth-lost snot-faced Shannon! Neither was your “story” new! It was a scissors-and-paste pastiche of several well-known old stories.

Pot calling the kettle black?

Judge not lest ye be judged.

Don’t interrupt, Shannon. How do you know he wasn’t going to say magic walrus or wallet or Walmart shopping cart?

someone may have said this already…anybody notice Shannon’s missing front tooth? :)

A Puss In Boots Fan—-I approve.

One Big Happy did this. For Better or Worse did this.
