I always thought she was unobtainable on account of being a girl nerd, not that she was a bombshell. We've never seen anyone else make a pass at her. I think. Yeah the gross guys in the date montage sure but they'd be doing that even if she was a manatee.

Barry's made several passes, and when she was introduced as a huge nerd I'm pretty sure Quagmike made a pass at her as well. Discounting those two and the nameless date montages we're left with VIET NAM VET who is yet to meet her but I'm sure will turn on what is euphemistically known as "the southern charm" but is more accurately described as just an old white man grossly flirting with a young woman.

Skip seems to be getting slimmer. He'll probably do a full Phil Fumble by the end of 2018.

So he'll grow three feet taller and his hair will thicken?

This is completely unrealistic. Brand new curtains and the mom isn't swearing a blue streak at the cat for damaging them?

I've thought of them both as a little on the chubby side, and I think a woman at a given BMI is usually as big or slightly bigger around the hips than a man at the same. Regardless, isn't a "bombshell" supposed to have a big butt?

The middle panel is the most absurd example of this. Seriously look at it and picture the positioning/size of her lower body:

Is anyone else having imgur problems? Mine keeps hanging at the "Creating your post" step, and turning ghostery/ublock off isn't fixing it. In the meantime here's 2004 Spiderman.

If I were getting the impression that Reddick were intentionally drawing her as a woman of size that would be way different. But what it looks like to me is more like he's an rear end man, so he started there and then worked his way up to the boobs and then, oh poo poo, she's too big and he's running out of room, panic, panic, uh, tiny head and now *boom* she fits in the panel. Which is nuts in its own way because there's no way he's not doing this on a computer and it would be easy for him to scale her clipart down. But if she is being drawn as a larger lady on purpose, then good on her for keeping the belly taught and those arms nice and firm, I guess. I am also having imgur problems, so no Luann until that resolves. It's imgur's Christmas gift to you.

Imgur seems to have pulled its head out of its rear end, at least for the time being. Hey, Luann! Unless there is a noticeable stench or it is attracting vermin, your dad does not care whether his adult daughter cleans her room as long as the door is closed! A better gift would be to do one of his chores that he doesn't like! Clean the garage! Mow the lawn! Take over dealing with the trash or the recycling for a while! Something else! But cleaning your own room is not a gift to anybody but yourself!

True. She's in college. Her parents are way past caring if she cleans her drat room. It's just more of the strip treating High School and College as the same thing for some weird reason.

Ah imgur is back up so the wait is over for you to see Wilbur have his spirit crushed. First though, a look back at IL. These are the first full-body appearances of Skip and Gwen that I could find. I think Skip has definitely become slimmer, and Gwen has certainly become curvier. I always thought she was supposed to be kind of plain but pretty, not really out of Skip's league (although she could do better). F Minus That would be hard on the knees.

But in Luann world, there is no greater gift that a promise that will no doubt be unfulfilled because the artist forgot.

Good lord. I didn't think too much of Gwen's character design before but now that I've seen her original appearance the current version looks like an abomination. Tracksuit The military humor in Tracksuit should be required reading for anyone seriously thinking about enlisting. Well strictly speaking Willie and Joe would be more relatable. And educational, since the Greatest Generation and World War II are so heavily fetishized to hell and back it's a bit off-putting to learn that the people who actually participated in it enjoyed cartoons that are cynical even by modern standards. Mother From Another Country And that's it. I want to stop here because 108 contains a mostly unnoticeable format change. If I come back next thread it will be much less regularly, since these are up to April 2015 now and the seasons are out of sync. Season 2 contains 183 comics, for reference, and ended exactly two years ago today. Season 3 contains 197 comics, still publishes, and so far as I can tell looks exactly the same as Season 2 did.
