    Well George Lucas is at it again with his revisionist history.

    Tomatoes are very good for you. Full of anti-oxidants!

    And right now Berke is sitting somewhere with a big smile on his face, relishing the fact that he was right and that just changing the words as his publisher demanded would do diddly against the memories of his fan base.

    Nobody knows exactly who made the decision to change the word. It may have been Breathed for all we know.

    Whoever changed the words forgot about the collective memory of the strip’s longtime fans, (such as myself), who probably have all of the words enthusiastically memorized.

    Untroubled by comic-fan memories, I assess that “chick” is an improvement over “tomato,” not that it matters. Mostly, Captain Cutter John is one lucky man to have Bobbi, chick or tomato….
