Sorry, not being in the CWTU (Comic Writers and Toonist’s Union) means many won’t get the full nostalgic bent of today’s offering. Nice history though.
Heh. One recognizes “The Small Society” getting tweaked here at about twenty paces. Very distinctive style, very nostalgic for me. (Makes me think how tricky it would be to spoof Lichty’s style.)
These are really great! Hope this whole arc will be published in book form at some point. (Oh, and anyone else think Mike Salisbury’s “Off Campus” is a “Doonesbury” reference?)
Suggestion, character development or loop-back. We are told that CJ was first seen as an airplane mechanic during WWII. So it would be fitting if 1) she came to work on a 10-speed bicycle, Honda supercub, Jeep, whatever, and was known for repairing them rebuilding them herself. 2) And similarly undertook to repair the coffee maker, chairs, microwave, copier, 3d-printer etc., maybe sometimes intruding on Roy’s turf.

Gently ironic take on topical issues… Pogo, anyone?

Nice effect with the “bleed through” from the other side of the page.
