As always, everything about Luann makes 100% more sense if you just assume everyone is a middleschooler instead of a college student.

I always get a chuckle at Uchida constantly mentioning her deadlines and how she can't make them due to medical issues but still needing to do them anyway. Truly, some things are universal.

Based off of stuff that was said about some of her other works, I had just assumed that it's not the same boyfriend, but she has a certain type so they all look the same. Porque no los dos

Yeah, it's not at all clear whether or not this is the same actual person that she's been with since the beginning of the comic - one could probably figure it out by cross-referencing her Wikipedia page with publication dates and so on, but I think part of the... texture? of the comic is she has a sort of iconic "boyfriend" who is generally portrayed as a sort of a "present lump," who she may or may not be legally married to at any given point in the comic, and may or may not be the same person as in previous comics, and the specifics are just not something she's interested in telling stories about.

IIRC there's an essay in the first volume that states that, although WARboyfriend isn't the biological father of WARbaby, he stays with her and eventually they get married? So I think it's the same guy, and TBF, he seems like a decent partner and father when it's not emergency time. EDIT: beaten and contradicted. Thanks for the clarification, GE!

Pogo 11/3-5/52, as Election Day arrives. Yeah, that one hasn't aged well, Walt. Even in 1952, you had Richard Nixon as Ike's VP. Casey Stengel was a legendary manager of the New York Yankees. The man who gave his birthday away was Robert Louis Stevenson (and not, again, Adlai Stevenson); here's an 1891 article reproducing the very serious legal document he wrote (including a provision that if the birthday was misused, it would revert to the President of the United States). Anyway, are you looking for new hair ideas? Archie 4/10-12/50 The Virtue of Vera Valiant 7/28-30/77 Bus Terminal '78 is a play on Airport '77, no doubt.

Still a week behind but I'd just like to say I'm a little shocked that Allison was able to write a Batman story and an X-men story with no copyright holders noticing or caring and yet Conan the Barbarian fanfiction of all things was somehow him going too far.

Some Guy TT posted:Still a week behind but I'd just like to say I'm a little shocked that Allison was able to write a Batman story and an X-men story with no copyright holders noticing or caring and yet Conan the Barbarian fanfiction of all things was somehow him going too far. I guessing there were a couple of reasons that Allison was able to get away with the Batman and X-men comics but not the Conan one (and I would also note that Allison took down the Batman comic a while ago, and the X-men comic the same time he took down Conan); First, those first two comics were only 20-something pages each, while the Conan story was shaping up to be three times that length. By the time the copyright holders noticed Allison had probably finished posting the comics. Second, Disney and Time Warner are both much bigger companies that CPI, so they were probably more likely to look the other way for a time, either because they felt it might be seen as bad publicity to hound Allison or (more likely IMO) it just wasn't worth the legal hassle. Either way they could afford to do so. Third, I'm guessing someone from Marvel and/or DC did contact Allison, but were probably more gentle about the whole thing. I wouldn't be surprised if someone had contacted Allison saying "hey, nice comics, but we really need you to take them down after while) or something to that effect. Just my own thoughts on the matter.

i think the largest factor is that yes, batman/x-men are held by much larger companies who probably regularly tolerate fanworks because comics as an industry has a long history of fan-artists becoming in-house artists as their career progresses, whereas conan is explicitly held by a company whose entire business is rent-seeking on works trading on the conan copyright with a history of using the incredibly busted length of united states copyright to legally threaten people in countries where the copyright has long since expired. a john allison batman or x-men comic doesn't compete with batman or x-men in the marketplace of batman/x-men comics, but a john allison conan comic directly competes with conan holdings llc in the marketplace of you can't use conan without paying me.

My dad used to bake the communion bread for our church. It was bland and unleavened. Sometimes if he made too much we'd put grated parmesan and italian seasoning on it and eat it as a snack.

It's required by canon law to be unleavened wheat bread with no additives and the wine must be pure fermented grape juice.
