It wouldn’t be corny except for his choice of name.He doesn’t want to be called Connie, so he and his family call him Lucky. Did his parents consider the correct pronunciation before putting it on his birth certificate?I’m going with Loo-key, no accent.
In all reality, And they called it puppy love. I know Im old. Notice in P 2 a scarey monster with its arms raised trying to frighten Con Man and Amy, it has a tree growing out of its head.
I think the Gil Thorp strip is treading into Apartment 3-G territory with this love angle. Of course, if this were an Apartment 3-G strip, Lucky would die next week in a plane crash.
…the whole mojo of the strip the past year is wrong. Not much here to conjure up the dark, satirical comments of even the magic peacock era. Oh, the material we had with the Wildcat/booster club conspiracy, Mrs. Lark’s substance abuse, even the Brody Abro angle.Mood is gone, gents, mood is gone.
“And I really am lucky — especially now.”“Why’s that?”“Because I’m here with you.”“I’m extra lucky tonight, Amy — because I’m here with you.”“Wow — do you realize how repetitive that was?”

How sweet!! They’re rubbing noses! That keeps the “G” rating of this strip intact.

Amy should use some of the money she makes shilling root beer and egg rolls at Schultz’s Polynesian Garden to buy herself a backpack.

Not only is Amy rocking the ‘stache, but she’s got a nice soul patch going in P3 as well.

Oh that’s a hand – man hand.

In this strip, it could definitely be a hand.

Yowza, we haven’t seen this type of action in a long time. Giving Cinemax a ruin for its money. At least Mopped Up Thorp is a little tamer.

You’re kind of cute, when you don’t have root beer doused all over.

P3- That’s what Clarice told Rudolph before he got excited and his fake nose popped off.

Bite of the Vampire, and she can handle sunlight, too. Did Amy transfer from Sunnydale? Where’s Buffy?
