And who taught that “conservative media” to read and write and do all sorts of other useful things? Unfortunately, there are some people with base qualities in every walk of life.

I like this strip very much, but its use of speech balloons sometimes puzzles me. In most comic strips, the two balloons in panel 2 would be spoken by the same person because they are connected. Or both characters may have been assumed to speak the same balloons. It sometimes takes me just a second to realize that, in Frazz, they are spoken by two different people.
I’m all for gaining new ground, and Frazz certainly does its share of that. But adopting a more standard use of speech balloons would not compromise the strip one bit.

Interesting that no one has commented regarding the fact that her hard-nosed no-nonsense approach is a cultivated image; suggests that perhaps she knows that she and her students are playing roles in a sort of game (RPG of sorts, I guess) and this is how her character is supposed to act, and the kids have their roles as well.
