Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for May 30, 2015
Transcript:
Luann: "Ooo! Bright idea! You do the theater internship, and I'll take the teaching job to make money, then, at Christmas, we'll go spend a romantic week in New York - just the two of us! Quill: "I love it when you have bright ideas" Luann: "Thanks. But now a little less bright would be nice..." Quill: "Like this?" Luann: "Hm. I'm gonna have to feel my way here..."

Brilliant. Really brilliant.

So, any questions about what’s really going on between these two now? Can’t remember seeing anything similar with any of the other characters…

So Luann’s plan gives her time to grow up a little more (of course she could grow up a lot more in the next few minutes).

That money will be gone before Christmas. Haha

Yahoo comics seems like they have an error where they are showing the future luann comic strips, just google “yahoo comics luann”.

Shocking. Whatever will the young people who never read this think?

Her’s where they get caught making out in the dark prop room and Quill! loses his internship.

Okay, it’s pretty clear they are active, but not necessarily going all the way. Even if they are, they’re both young adults, and if the famous “.” can be acknowledged, so can the related activity. We all assume that Luann’s first time would be a major event, but not everything needs to be spelled out for us. Sex is a part of life, but so is using the toilet. And if they are doing the deed, I think it goes without saying that they’d be responsible.

and some where: houston control these are the hands, we’ve popped the top and can verify (bra) we have lift off!

Or maybe two more caption bubbles will appear ( Gunther and Tiffany ) ? NAAAAAAA!

And just which home do you suggest?

Luann Quill – LuannQuill – Luanuill – Luaill

That’s a relief, when I saw the dark panel I thought we were headed for a lousy Sopranos ending.

“I’m gonna have to feel my way here….” —Second base? Probably. Third base? Maybe, maybe not. Home run/he scores!? Doubtful in the circumstances.We shall see what we shall see….

Going to New York for the summer would have been many times more educational than any summer job. At least she will spend 2 weeks there, unless this cartoon strip finds some excuse to cancel that.

Quill’s hand falls upon her knee, and Luann cries out “Heaven’s above!”
RoadTrip3500 over 9 years ago
So let’s see… we had Gunther with a damp only-in-a-robe Tiffany discussing salamander sex and having that “is it hot in here” glance, and today Luann and Quill in a dark room “feeling” their way around… I’d say we’ve reached PG-13 status at minimum.
And what the heck has happened to Delta? Is Dez the new token minority, with Delta never to be seen again?

Unmarried teens having sex in a comic strip, and most of the readers think it’s just fine. Okay :-/

Hah Mordock999,if it is Quill’s B-Day,maybe Lu is gonna give him a very special one-time gift.

They grow up sooo fast!
seismic-2 Premium Member over 9 years ago
So by the time Christmas break comes around, will they be ready to go to NYC together and move beyond a grope in the dark to actually doing the deed? Team Evans wants us to build up 6 months’ worth of suspense and speculation!
rbullfogg over 9 years ago
About time! Now all we need is the rest of these characters! Oh, don’t forget about Baldo.
reedkomicks Premium Member over 9 years ago
Love these two!
jonescientific over 9 years ago
I’ve noticed a pattern of Evans setting up one new story line after another and then just dropping them.
3pibgorn9 over 9 years ago
Well, when you’re dealing with several major characters. Besides, it leaves you wondering and using your imagination.

As the lady said in Blazing Sadels it’s true It’s really true.

well, the big “IF” (part one) has been resolved!
now we have to wait till Xmas for the big “IF”(part two)
guest starring “Mother Grinch” DeGroot.
seismic-2 Premium Member over 9 years ago
So how far did they go in the dark? Any touching “down there”? We shall probably be kept wondering, until it’s time to revisit this story arc in December, when the NYC trip once again becomes an issue.
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace over 9 years ago
the true meaning of “down under” is examined?

NG I remember the old line:“sex is only dirty if you’re doing it right.”
locake over 9 years ago
Making out in the dark doesn’t mean there will be naked sex in the prop room. They could go someplace private for that. And plenty of 18 year old girls are on the pill or have an IUD.
JimT8 over 9 years ago
Just like Grey’s Anatomy. But you don’t think they could do it where either of them lives, do you?
whiteaj over 9 years ago
Now we’re absolutely getting explicit. Notice it’s LUANN speaking in the last frame…
Airman over 9 years ago
This should have been Tiffany and Gunther.
JimT8 over 9 years ago
(Sorry, I couldn’t resist the joke!)
Try!
JimT8 over 9 years ago
Exactly.
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace over 9 years ago
Don’t know why anybody’s upset.They were just trying to conserve electric energy.Environmentally conscious kids.
Ammi29 over 9 years ago
since this is a comic strip and a lot of teens read it, im sure they are just kissing, not having sex…
doverdan over 9 years ago
I’d prefer they do their sex acts at home instead of at work, very sleazy. . . . . "-————————-Who says they are at work?? Q simply has the key. This is pure recreation. Good for them.
seismic-2 Premium Member over 9 years ago
Come on, folks! Surely no one doubts that this is just another typical “close call” in the Luann-verse, like the classic original implausible interruption:----and then the “Hey, it’s almost curfew!” feeble excuse:---
Airman over 9 years ago
Luann no longer “looks” like a virgin.
sharx335 over 9 years ago
Have you always been so uptight?
sharx335 over 9 years ago
Who made YOU God?
changwei over 9 years ago
impolite
maverick1usa over 9 years ago
At Luann’s house with mom & dad around? Or at Quill’s room that is shared with Gunther & his mother hoovering around? But it is kinda sleezy doing it in the prop room. GO GET A ROOM!
Kymberleigh over 9 years ago
Oh, pleeeeeeeeease no Ms. Flat-face Manzoni … that character’s appearance scares me.
Darwin7848 Premium Member over 9 years ago
I suspect someone at Yahoo Comics will be getting a big dope slap over that screwup. Team Evans is not pleased I’m sure.
wiselad over 9 years ago
not just Lue, but maybe all of the comics in yahoo have next week spoiled(all the comics I like and I clicked are spoiled)
Darwin7848 Premium Member over 9 years ago
There is going to be a mob of very seriously pissed off cartoonists.
seismic-2 Premium Member over 9 years ago
However, in the case of Luann, it’s in the best interest of these boards that next week’s strips be leaked, since so many people are posting messages full of either condemnations or praise about what’s happening in the dark today. Those postings are pointless, if you don’t know what actually happens.
Darwin7848 Premium Member over 9 years ago
Yeah the syndicate’s newspaper customers will not be pleased.
SactoSylvia over 9 years ago
Yikes! I had to check it out, and now wish I hadn’t – there goes anticipation for the next week or so. :(
Darwin7848 Premium Member over 9 years ago
The big comics sites will also not be thrilled.
Sheriff Mordecai Premium Member over 9 years ago
Team Evans now knows. Culpability could be a hybrid affair.
flowergirl19 over 9 years ago
This is not a political cartoon. Please keep the political hate mongering out of this forum. It is very unpleasant.
Sheriff Mordecai Premium Member over 9 years ago
If yahoo always gets a composite jpg, someone failed to crop it into daily files. If universal is supposed to send separate dailies, well, who knows?
seismic-2 Premium Member over 9 years ago
I’m sure today’s strip must have come as quite a shock to the many dozens of teenage readers of the comics, in newspapers all across the country.
atomicdog over 9 years ago
Now, just wait a danged minute! Isn’t Luann the one who was slut-shaming Tiffany just last week?
Caldonia over 9 years ago
Oh wow! I can’t believe some of these aren’t parodies! They’re just awful! Er….is it too late for the Evanses to change their minds about posting those Sunday ones? Because they’re preeeety obnoxious.
Caldonia over 9 years ago
This perspective is written for middle aged and older people who want to push “waiting” on the young people they don’t particularly relate to or even like much anymore.
ChrisV over 9 years ago
But Greg, I thought that ’Waiting is sexy.", lol.
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace over 9 years ago
You confuse Catholic with Christian in your characterization.
A common mistake.
Airman over 9 years ago
I remember when Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, was impressed with something she had her hands around after the lights went out. When the lights came back on she was holding a very large boa constrictor.
doverdan over 9 years ago
I was not making an ugly remark about Ausies. Far from it. .I was going at someone’s remark about Q being good because he obviously comes from “good stock.”.IMO talk about people coming from “good stock” is silly at best and can be “class centered” or “race centered” nonsense.
doverdan over 9 years ago
I don’t think we should pay any attention here to comics at other sites.
I’d suggest that we stop all such comment.
Please post nothing about them.
JimT8 over 9 years ago
I don’t disagree.
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace over 9 years ago
“Sometimes?”.Sometimes
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace over 9 years ago
@JimT8“Actually, it is Evangelicals more than Catholics who are like this, I understand.”.Usually groups who left what they consider the Mother Church in protest, but would rejoin if it fixed a few minor doctrinal errors, versus those who were never part, don’t pay attention to what their earthly leaders say.They take guidance from him in all other matters and are ashamed to question him.
