I thought the logo was a reference to Gilchrist's other strip Mudpie which is about an anthropomorphic cat that loves baseball. It was in the paper when I lived in RI many years ago before I knew who Gilchrist was. Looks like the same art style.

Calaveron posted:So Cul de Sac and Wallace the Brave are the only comic strips that involve parenting or parent-child relationships that don't boil down to my child is an idiot and I loathe the day he or she escaped from my testicles/womb right? Actually, I can't believe I forgot Baldo, whose joke is often "my children are TOO special and wonderful and I am TOO good of a father to them, how wacky!" BC Phoebe and her Unicorn Wizard of Id Big Nate Wallace the Brave, written and illustrated by Vargo's very best friend Will Henry So, Will Henry actually contacted me on Twitter today and offered to send me an advance copy of the upcoming Wallace the Brave book as a thank-you for all the times I've promoted the strip on social media.

Way I see it there's two ways this goes, both poo poo 1) Tiffany is depressed because she's *FAT* boohoo hoo no actual growth just let's poo poo on her because she was mean in High school or some crap like that or 2) a B>U level melodramatic pile of poo poo with a big suicide attempt, which nothing is learned, more excuses to poo poo on Tiffany. or If Evans gets a personality and brain transplant 3) a mature nuanced discussion of how someone who seems to 'have it all' can still have issues with depression which results in real and lasting character growth and maturity for all parties involved.
