Henry, there was a time (in the not-so-distant-past) when we could actually tell who the characters were by looking at them. It was much easier to follow the story back thenā¦
Henry, I appreciate that you are trying to āconnectā with the strips readers. Many of us are old, and have been reading Gil Thorp since the 1960ās, so weāre not always going to be enthused about new directions. Keep working!
Be fair, Rachel has (it appears to me) been trying hard in recent weeks to make the humans in this strip look moreā¦humanā¦ than they did previously. Perfect? No. But I think she is taking to heart some of the voluminous criticism that readers (including me) have lobbed her way. So letās give her a chance.
Enjoy that lovingly rendered, exquisitely detailed exterior shot of the Thorp house in panel 1. Now THAT is how good the artwork COULD be throughout this strip.
Henry & Rachel: Itās been a tough year, and I know many readers (including me) have been very critical of your work. Have a great holiday season, and lets all look forward to a better 2025.
Somebody wants to get someā¦
