I couldn’t tell you the underlying psychological reasonings, but the reality is that I have a signed copy of Berke Breathed’s coffee table art book that means the world to me. Perhaps it signifies the joy his work has given me since 1980 with all the memories that are inspired.
I came to the realization that fantasy football was ruining my appreciation for the sport. Rooting for stats for “my teams” plus being upset over injuries impacting “my teams” rather than concern over the players’ health isn’t what sport is all about (in my opinion, feel free to disagree). I agree with Dirty Dragon completely!
Agreed, but would you see Nancy of each iteration reflective of their eras? It seems kids today are raised to be miniature adults, with similar traits.
Whatever one thinks about the plots and structure (a little hit-or-miss at times IMHO, but I also admit I could never begin to do better), this team excels at developing characters that one can feel for. I’m reminded of the time Lt. Columbo explained his technique to a college class, saying, while hating what they did, he looked for the things he and the murderer’s family liked and loved about them to get to know the entire person.
6 days and 18 panels in (which isn’t enough time to fully judge), the artwork looks fantastic and I’m looking forward to the story playing out.
