Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for May 28, 2012
Transcript:
Crystal: "Why do you dress the same all the time?" Knute: "I dunno. Keeps life simple" Crystal: "Simple? How about boring?" Knute: "When you look at me, do I look bored?" Crystal: "No. But the question is, when I look at you, do I look bored?" Knute: "Oh. Yeah. You do. Actually" Crystal: "Mall. Tomorrow. 10a.m. Bring a credit card" Knute: "Oooo!"

If you quote me, you have to attribute it – especially if it’s out of context..Either way, I want a check for royalties.
brewingbiker over 12 years ago
I kind of like Knute. The dude is super relaxed, doesn’t take life too seriously. Stress kills, after all -and leads to a miserable existance.

Greg, 2010 called – it wants its thigh-highs back.

Recycling plots?Greg did the Gunther makeover, now we get to do it over with Knute.

Lets hope she does a little more than go to the bathroom for the next couple of weeks or so.
tomshelly1990 over 12 years ago
Crystal and Knute for at least a week…sigh! Is Luann taking an extended SAT or something? I am so tired of not seeing Luann!
The Old Wolf over 12 years ago
Props to whomever called a scene change for today.
ComicLaff over 12 years ago
Ho-ho-ho, I like these two characters.
kmwtigger over 12 years ago
Crystal and Knute go good together—-opposites attract.
kenwarnerfordictator over 12 years ago
Crystal has the right idea, but she is missing something. Doesn’t Knute need to get a credit card frim his parents? What if they say no? She didn’t even consider this. I would hate to be her husband!
Sisyphos over 12 years ago
Crystal is smart, and wise, as well as being a seriously hot babe. She has all the bases covered and now is going to reupholster Knute. I hope she makes him get a haircut, too. He could end up looking quite respectable by next weekend!
38lowell over 12 years ago
Does Knute have money? What does she see in this guy?
YankeeFan56 over 12 years ago
38lowell, in a previous strip Tiff asks Crystal that exact question. It turns out Crystal sees all of Knute’s good qualities. Personally, I think Crystal is the 2nd hottest babe in this strip, just ahead of Rosa. Not that I mind a week’s worth of Crystal, but JanBic is very correct.

Uh oh . . . the woman wants to change the man’s look.
Can joint checking be far behind?
Vilyehm over 12 years ago
If at the mall, Crystal turned into Victoria’s Secret, Knute would follow—AND try on the teddy.
The “Lips” may appear later.

Oh oh.
Purple Me over 12 years ago
I like Crystal!!! ! I like Knute!!! ! I don’t know or care if they belong together! Maybe they could be good for each other? Maybe Crystal is too serious in her black outfits?
Purple Me over 12 years ago
not that there is anything wrong with black outfits… ; ) I like black. I think she may be a touch too serious.
princecharmeing over 12 years ago

This is closing on almost three months, June 12. The story lines are great. We need Luann in them. I hope to see her soon.
Chas60 over 12 years ago
It’s gonna cost you chief!
Airman over 12 years ago
Yes. I like these two, but I have to agree that Luann, Bernice, & Delta have been missing for too long now. They are becoming like an exotic species that only make brief, unexpected appearances.
Mordock999 over 12 years ago
SHE is gonna Change HIM??
SHE Ordering HIM to Mall with HIS Credit Card??
BAD sign Knute.
You’ve been CLAIMED, son.
The ONLY left is for HER to do is CLUB You across Your head and DRAG You OFF to Her Cave….,
imbaldeagle over 12 years ago
Clothing your guy attractively must stem from playing with dolls. Dressing them differently eg. Barbie & Ken. In my youth, girls could cut out doll clothes with tabs on the edges and fasten them on paper boy and girl drawings. Probably prepares girls to improve their self esteem by helping them clothe their mates in such a way that it shows they have good taste [and also have influence in his life]. Personally, I like to have my wife select my clothes [unless I rebel at some flashy colors]. I often ask her what she’d like to see me wear, because she has to look at me – and I don’t.

Lol…. date, maybe?

@Sniling4HimYa she is taking him out but she is buying and he is paying.

I like this cartoon, regardless of whose turn it is to have a story.
LiviaBay over 12 years ago
Ditto!
MeGoNow Premium Member over 12 years ago
Knute’s approach to life should allow him to actually have some fun with Krystal and her fashion makeover. And that’s exactly the attitude that allows Krystal to be herself without conflict. They may be the perfect couple.
BudLyte over 12 years ago
Now, if he could learn to draw lips that didn’t look like bird beaks…………
cdemattos over 12 years ago
loving crystal’s look today—especially the stockings!
cdemattos over 12 years ago
actually Luann is probably the most boring character in this strip—besides lame-o Gunther.
JimT8 over 12 years ago
Crystal would wither Leslie like an autumn leaf.
JimT8 over 12 years ago
If I was with Crystal and she turned into Victoria’s Secret, I would follow.
We knew you would, Leviticus.
nanellen over 12 years ago
Actually the strip is Luann’s life and those around her. I find each mini episode more reality than fiction, and I believe some episode could be taking place at the same time. Way to go Mr. Evans!
Airman over 12 years ago
Crystal & Rosa are the hottest. Toni is an Amazon, and Tiffany is just a Barbie doll. Ann is an erotic death wish.
jfedorchuk over 12 years ago
Very happy to see Knute and Crystal for a while. I always enjoy story lines involving them as a couple.
Mighty_Mouse over 12 years ago
Last time I saw his expression was on a departing cat.
JimT8 over 12 years ago
what they really want is a guy with money,
That’s what the evolutionary psychologists would say, but I think they are out of date on this.
JimT8 over 12 years ago
Modern women still want financial security but, in spite of the male/female pay gap most now can aim at getting their own financial security.
legionbuck43 over 12 years ago
It would have been more appropriate to have Luann and friends paying respects at a cemetery honoring those that gave their all…
lecrenb over 12 years ago
Looks like Crystal is embarking on a Knute project…
ctaylornlv Premium Member over 12 years ago
Is Luann not in the strip anymore except on Sunday?
The Life I Draw Upon over 12 years ago
I like Crystal. She is more mature, and wittier.
I think she has a handicapped brother, which I can identify with.
barkingspider1 over 12 years ago
I like Knute. Some of the smartest people I know, refuse to dress to suit other people. They just figure either people like or don’t like them and they’re OK with that.
MMMM_ERT over 12 years ago
Would have been nice if todays strip honored those who sacrificed for our country.
RayThomas101 over 12 years ago
She cares what he looks like. that says something.
Airman over 12 years ago
Forget the mall. Take him to a military recruiter…we all looked the same every day. Memorial Day: remember those who paid the price.
Thehag over 12 years ago
There is quite a bit of depth below Knutes surface show. Crystal sees it. Just as she too is more than her make up and clothes. What they have in common is they are both strong individuals.
Fan o’ Lio. over 12 years ago
I like Knute mainly because he doesn’t take much of anything seriously. He is a counterbalance to those who are too serious. I identify with him to some extent. What happened to his 3D glasses?
kenhense over 12 years ago
@ Leviticus – Crystal & Leslie?? Ugh! Crystal & Knute do seem like a couple. I used to know someone like Crystal – she could be very fun.
Doctor11 over 12 years ago
Look out, Kurt, you’re about to have a MAJOR makeover.
imbaldeagle over 12 years ago
How real is Knute? At least he doesn’t view the world through rose-colored glasses. And Crystal needs comedy in her life.
packman76 over 12 years ago
I don’t miss Luann. In fact, I skip the week she is the subject of the strip. I would much rather read about anyone else in the strip but her. Her storylines were boring and predictable.
lookslikemeband over 12 years ago
Ah… This is Greg doing a Knute update… Remember his zigzag glasses??
Comic Minister Premium Member over 12 years ago
Tight high socks and shorts are kind of a great fashion if combined with a dress or skirt.
mojitobaby over 12 years ago
I think Luann’s kind of in a holding pattern with Quill – Greg can either have them break up, or move forward – and both of those actions are problematic. If they move forward, Luann has a successful relationship and she becomes Tiffany, as in having a hot boy on a string. If they break up, she’s boring old Luann again, only dumber for having tanked a promising relationship. .Talk about your lose/lose situations – I think Greg actuially has no idea what to do, so he’s doing other thihgs.
mojitobaby over 12 years ago
In Knute’s case, you better hope that he’s smoked more than his fair share of weed. To discover that anyone’s naturally that zoned out and oblivious would be pretty shocking.

Knute doesn’t always dress the same, aside from his hat.
