Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for June 29, 2012

This dude might be part Gunther

actually is good, it feels unnatural to sit side by side and “DO NOTHING” (no hold hands and no talking)

Luann is CLEARLY waiting for Quill to make the move. She’s made it plain she’s available and interested Look at panel 2 – Decision time, lad!

Orion

KISS HER, YOU DUMBA##!

@said:♫ ♪TRADITION!♫ ♪ (cue soundtrack…)

Orion

As usual, I agree with you.In fact, my very best encounters have usually been initiated by my Lady.I could talk about last night, but you’d think I was bragging.

in the san francisco chronicle, luann runs right beneath sally forth..interesting watching both a 13 year old and 16 year old take on their first real romance.,..at the same time…

WWAHD? (What would Aaron Hill do?)

He’s rather nervous for a gay bloke isn’t he?.nyuk nyuk nyuk

Why?

jump her bones

Watch their eyes, folks. Of course, someone has to make the first move….

Probably not. Mr. Evans will switch to the Toni/Brad/TJ story line.

Sometimes it’s enough to know that you could if you really wanted to. Well, “wanted to” might not be the right words…..there’s wanting, and then there’s knowing what really right for you.

Two virgins and scared to start but eager move on. Just kiss her you idiot for Christ sake you are both on a bed.

Boys don’t belong in a teenage girls bedroom.

I don’t know I keep thinking of the scene from Animal House – LOL LOL

You wrote…

These are NOT normal teenages

No offense, but the writer of this strip is the same age as my parents. I’m trying not to be ageist, but I’m not convinced that a 65 year old man can write a realistic story about teenagers in 2012. I’m 30 and I’m not sure that I could. I see 16 year olds running around all the time, they don’t seem to be this awkward and insecure, especially not the guys like Quill.

It’s a sweet picture. Luann should at least get a peck.

Okay, Im at a LOSS here.

What exactly makes Mr. Oz so darn SPECIAL??

His “music”? Please. He SHOULD have been DEPORTED on THAT basis alone.

His so-called looks? Debatable. And you really want a realationship based STRICTLY on looks?

What?

Help me out here.

I’ll be over here enjoying a fresh cup of COFFEE and calling the DeGroots to tell them to HURRY home because Their house is on fire….,

Give them a break! Not all teens are captive to raging hormones. Some are cautiously exploring and HOPING for love – but not willing to act on it … yet..Luann was asking about MORE even when she was trying to move to “more”. Today, I’m thinking that they both are feeling “Great, we got off the dime and made a decision – now what?” And they don’t want to make a mistake.

“….your heart sweats, your teeth grind.” Go on Luann, give him a kiss and get this party started.

What does Mr. Evans say about all of this… See his 1/16/2012 blog entry. -

Thank you Mr. Evans, this has been a good comic strip over the years.

Dont think that crowd is here at all. I think they are being ironic.

And i agree with you wrt the back of a car.

I love how Luann’s eyes look at Quill in the 2nd panel and then as far away as possible in the 3rd.

Ah, the old switch-up. Teased one out recently with a very subtle challenge…I can’t be aroused, you’re too young for me…maybe we should partner on something…

Monday? Could be tomorrow. Or the arc could go on for another week?

I trust Greg to do the right thing with this arc.

“If they were raised properly, they wouldn’t be in the house alone, unsupervised and in a bedroom, which is even worse. When I was a kid I wasn’t allowed to be in my g/f’s bedroom AT ALL, EVER…let alone the home alone with her… I can chalk the “in the home alone” as health rebellion, but in the bed room is just a break down of morals…”

I’ve been alone in a bedroom with my boyfriend on many occasions over the course of our 3+ year relationship, and I’ve yet to drop my panties because of it. Being raised right means you keep control of the situation, regardless of where that situation is located.

This is all wrong. You don’t decide to become a couple, while sitting on a bed. Awkward!

Why is it that I assume that all the comments like this are simply homophobic?

Very likely she will make the next move.

Maybe they should start out by doing what was originally scheduled and working on a song.

Mom & dad better hurry home.

Just remember the leaked image, Dave.

There’s not a thing wrong with being a virgin, and staying a virgin until one’s wedding night, Wesley_B — and that’s actually my point. What I was trying to do was refute the ridiculous assumption that Quill is gay just because he’s not suddenly shoving Luann down on the bed and shoving his tongue down her throat, now that the opportunity has presented itself. As you noted, Quill and Luann were undoubtedly raised with that standard, so now they’re both naturally acting like two deer that have been caught in the headlights now that the opportunity to violate that standard has presented itself.

No wonder he isn’t into Tiff, Quill got no game! Tiff’s expectations would have been very high. Luann just wants a guy with a pulse.

" in the bed room is just a break down of morals…".Nah.In the bedroom is a contemplation of violation of morals because morals aren’t being considered when first entering, perhaps never..For that matter sometimes a bedroom is used for things other than sleeping or sex. That intention is implied here but simply existing is not immoral..In fact, I well remember being in a girl’s bedroom when in the eleventh grade. I was trying to help her with her accounting homework. Naturally I closed the door to block the sound of the television in the next room but her mother for some reason didn’t take it that way. She kept breaking in on us, don’t know why she didn’t just turn off the TV and leave the door open.

“did Greg become a Mormon?”.If he were of the right sect, it wouldn’t be a question of Luann OR Tiffany.

My dad always told me that real love is when you’re perfectly happy just being in the same room together.

Teens with no hormones. This is unnatural.

Dave53’s comment:not so much homophobic as trollaphylic , tho there are aspects of the former.-—————-

Ha ha ha on me! Tried to look up trollaphylic! Duuuuuh.

Finally, I’ve been waiting years for Quill and Luanne to be MORE than friends.

I had to press the “share” button to get here. Quill – it’s time for you to press the “share” button too!

Luann’s eyes in each frame – says it all.

Consider yourself cool not sorry. New words are what keeps a languange from lanquishing.

Quill should just take her hand and lead her to a safer place.

The ice cream shop (mentioned earlier) would be a good place to start their “new” understanding.

Ahhh…youth is wasted on the young.

If Quill goes gay I’m outta here

Or, as Sally Brown used to yell at Charlie Brown, “Kiss her, you blockhead!” :)

They might as well start recording, if they wait much longer mom and dad will be home. It’s conscience, unlike Tiff Luann has morals and bounderies. I think he does too.

You’re right, and now its time for Quill to take over and get them out of there.

Quill, do something!

First of all, they should go for a walk & hold hands.Since they both sing, they could sing &/or dance. Romance will generate a closer relationship & will feel more natural.

Fear is good.

“of course no disrespect intended towards those of that faith … i was simply referring to their very strict moral compass.”.I don’t know. It still sounded disrespectful and I’m not even Mormon. .People all around the world have taught their children to limit their actions with respect to others and out of respect of themselves..Some respect their parents’ teaching, some don’t. To pick one particular group out is just WRONG.(not that i care, but it is)

They didn’t seem to have that problem when they were just friends!
