The Sunday strips are still pretty good. I appreciate Olivia Jaimes not making Aunt Fritzi a rockabilly pinup bombshell who exclusively wears shirts that say "MERLE HAGGARD" and "I STAND FOR THE FLAG" stretched across her H-cups; it is a net positive when weird creeps can be stopped from monetizing their fetishes in the funny papers.

I'd rather read a random Jaimes Nancy than a random Gilchrist one, but reading it every day ain't great. Sunday strips are usually pretty clever, though.

Despite CK Archives losing their go-to-date function (which better be loving temporary), I went back and March 3 2013 is the end of a Sunday storyline. I didn't see anything about Master Jampa in my quick look through a few weeks on either side of that day's comic, so I don't know what this has to do with that.

1. You didn't give him a valentine either, Luann.

2. While I have given valentines to friends in a completely platonic way, that's friends, plural. I didn't choose one male friend, who I knew had a crush on me, in whom I had no interest, and labor over a valentine for him and him alone. That would have been needlessly cruel.

3. The art is ugly AF, but it has personality, at least.

Yeah, it's the tagline for the wonderbra, which somehow found a niche as a general punchline in the 90s. There's a lot of boob double entendres in the preceding panel to set it up, which I thought was pretty clever.

It's a slogan that goes back way before the wonderbra, back to Jane Russell and her movie career. Most of us know from the 70's and her ads for Playtex bras, but it goes back farther than that. (And the Wonderbra lifts and squishes together to enhance cleavage, while earlier boob aesthetics had them being pointed in entirely different cardinal directions.)

Ngl I've always found it to be somewhat charming whenever Luann flashbacks retain the old-style art. It's a nice admission that the comic isn't created from a vacuum.

But these are just straight up reruns?

e: Okay, this one scrambled my brain just a bit. He proposes inflation? So I had to go for the book.

Senator Windrip's campaign issued a policy statement called "The Fifteen Points of Victory for the Forgotten Men." Point number 8 is "Congress shall have the sole right to issue money and immediately upon our inauguration it shall at least double the present supply of money, in order to facilitate the fluidity of credit." Jessup translates that as "by inflation, big industrial companies will be able to buy their outstanding bonds back at a cent on the dollar." But yeah, as the strip implies, Windrip's racial policies would make an apartheid supporter blush.
