Heart of the City by Steenz for September 04, 2009

Nice Guy, that Officer Mario…much nicer than some of the Philly Police I’ve seen.

Officer Mario, You DAWG! I thought there’d be a catch but— WOW!!!

Amen to that, TheDoctor!

Curiously, what happen to MISTER Angelini? Heart’s nanny has an M.R.S. for gosh’s sake.

On Mr. Angelini:

“Another storyline that generated some attention was from 2000, in which Mark traced the story of Mrs. Angelini’s husband. The series of strips discusses how they met and how he was drafted into service in the Korean War. The plot becomes very emotional when Mrs. Angelini receives a letter informing her that her husband was missing in action. That particular episode was requested to be used in a Cold War history book that the Fort Morgan Museum in Fort Morgan, Colo., was publishing.”

Wikipedia says he “los[t] a leg due to injuries sustained in fighting.” It also says the Angelinis have 5 children, so apparently he made it back home.

(URLs with underscores in them don’t work in these comments; if you want to see the “Heart of the City” Wikipedia entry you’ll have to search for it manually. The sample comic at the top is enjoyable.)

Yo AKH. Use this site here for those funky URLs, it’s great. http://tinyurl.com/

Yeah, remember when he had that crush on Angelini around 9 years ago?
