Bargain shopping is an art.
Still no word for us, JWF?
Your loyal audience has been hanging on, waiting to hear.
To those who posted yesterday….
John explained back in 2012 that he ran out of money to pay his artists.
I don’t think it makes any sense that he was lying,
Much as we love her, Annie is fictional.
No fictional illness can actually kill a character.
Nothing about her is so inevitable that anyone would quit instead of depicting it….
John controls what happens…
If he had the means to continue the strip, and it were his artistic decision to have her pass on, he’d do it…
but if, like us, he couldn’t bear for her to die,
he’d make her recover, or at least go on as she is.
Unfortunately, he didn’t make enough money from syndication to continue….
So our best hope for Annie is that he’s found a way now.
And if not…. let’s assume that in her fictional world, she recovers, and nothing worse happens.
I feel like Peter Pan here….
If you believe in Annie’s future, clap your hands….
Note to Rekam….
Thanks from the other day.
I started reading this strip in 2011, then went back and read the archives, and caught up.
now I’ve read it all over again… and I’m sure I’ll do it again if it reboots, though of course I’d rather it continue on.
I just don’t comment here much.
See you!
Lila is quite the mathematician! Rattling off those numbers so effortlessly! Must be Annie’s influence.
When I want to get in touch with my feminine side, I go out and buy something I don’t need just because it’s on sale.
Unfortunately the U.S. fed gov’t uses Lila logic in budget preparation.
⇧ it’s important when you have nothing to say to make sure that the nothing takes up a lot of space…
Actually, more than one comic strip has had a major character die off. Funky Winkerbean comes to mind as one. The major character died of breast cancer.

or that he or the artists “really” quit because they didn’t want to show Annie’s demise.Much as we love her, Annie is fictional.
