Living in an enchanted forest with surrealistic landscapes, the engaging characters of Broom Hilda happily have no connection with reality. Other comic characters are extensions or distortions of reality, but Broom Hilda deals in pure fantasy, making the strip bewitchingly unique. Here in the forest, the inhabitants maintain a standard of madness where total irrelevance is the only relevancy. The strip is simply a loony-bin where what’s said and done often makes no sense whatsoever, much to the joy of its millions of fans.

Good morning, LB. We had two inches of snow last night.

In some of the snowiest zones, Broomie would be completely lost! Broomie needs to be happy with who she is, and how loved she is, rather than envying some tall, young, rich, beautiful supermodel!

The ages-old question: does youth and beauty attract money, or does money attract youth and beauty? ‘Cause every hot chick I’ve ever known, drove a hot car.

Hey, Mr. Myers…just thought of something.
If Broom Hilda is 1500 years old, how about devoting some strips to her past adventures? Her encounters with someone in history? Her origin? It could open the door to a whole new set of gags!
Maybe you could devote the Sunday strip to her past, while the dailies remain in the present.

Models earn mucho dineros.
Of course, their careers are generally short-lived; they had better have good financial consultants.

We do occasionally get flash backs of Broom Hilda in earlier times. However she looks exactly the same.

She’s not rich, she’s just middle class.

The model only has a few score years before dust – and Broomie’s still gonna be around.
