I don’t read the funnies anymore, but one I keep going back to every once in a blue is Heart of the City. Everytime I come back, something happens. Either Heart goes to a new school. Heart gets a new hairdo. Or… Heart gets a new artist.
I thought I clicked on the wrong comic yesterday. Honestly, I think criticsm against the redesigns is fair. None of the characters are recognizable and just look like new characters. The only way I figured out who Heart was, was by her skirt.
However, I know Mr. Tatulli didn’t want to continue drawing the strip and I respect that. I could tell for about 5 years he didn’t want to. Heart was probably 50% reruns a year and Lio was updated consistently. Then there’s the dream sequences. Nobody can force him to keep doing this. And he approves of the new cartoonist. It is what it is.
I’m willing to keep coming back to see where this new interpretation goes though. I will say, this one strip about ranking the 9 Star Wars movies felt like something Mr. Tatulli would draw.
I’m fine with the story line, but most artists, when they take over another artist’s comic strip at least make an effort at continuity in what the characters look like. This is a new comic and she needs to either make the characters at least resemble themselves, or give it a new name.

The storyline is starting to grow on me. But I still hate Heart’s and Dean’s hair.
