It's pretty straightforward: Crankshaft takes place now, ten years before Funky Winkerbean, which takes place now. Back in now they had social media, but over a decade later in now, Fallen Star came out in 1997. But as now is now, now can't be 1997, so now Fallen Star came out back in now.

Isn't this like the second time Mark Trail has decided "water has to go somewhere, so let's just hope it's not into hundreds of kilometres of underground river tunnels as any reasonable person would expect this far under the earth"? Did Jam Esellan just get really upset that we kept making fun of how sweaty the characters were and decided they needed a cool dip? Will we ever see another animal in this comic ostensibly about nature?

Well, they are, sort of; frogs and toads are in the same order, but are in fact different species. There are multiple species of frogs, some of which are toads. So, technically both you and Arlo are wrong actually.

But yeah, toads are just dry, lumpy frogs basically.

If toads are frogs then toads and frogs are not "two different species". Some species of frogs are commonly known as toads, but they are still frogs.

Point, I see what you were getting at. Sorry; I have a fever or something that's making my head very uncomfortable so I'm a bit out of it.

Also today's Luann is amazing. Gunther sucks so much. Stop Nice Guy-ing around and just say something. And then get rejected because you suck.

Yeah pretty sure you don't get to use the editor joke, buddy, considering what he does go for on a regular basis, although I think it's more likely that when your strips come in he just sighs, shoves them in the Approved bin without looking and reaches for the bottom drawer.

These dumb loving crush games that they play in Luann would sorta work in middle school or high school settings, but gently caress for me if one of the best things about not being in high school or middle school is that people grow up. They shouldn't have bothered setting the strip forward in college if they aren't going to mature the characters at all.

Of course that insane man in the comments section certainly shows there's a market for it. That'd be a pretty good topic for the FPlus maybe, newspaper comic superfans.
