“Whiners” is an uncalled-for comment. Most of us seem to agree thatr we have come to terms with whatever does or doesn’t resonate with us. I have the greatest respect for Lynn Johnston. She created a world that has meant a great deal to many of us, and as far as I’m concerned still does. But not all of us are going to follow the new path with her. it’s no more and no less than that.
I enjoyed Lynn’s later, more “realistic” (wasn’t that realistic) style. Liked the polish. But we all have different tastes. My kids are grown, and these strips do reflect my own experiences and feel right. But…something is missing for me. If there’s not going to be a story line, I guess I would prefer a strip with a little more bite to it – some edginess. It’s her strip though, and we don’t have to read it if we lose interest.
