Heart of the City by Steenz for August 18, 2022

And they accuse us of being inconvenient.

That’s just wrong

This is why I use a mailbox rental shop. Someone else (who is always there) signs for my packages & holds them for me .. and then I pick ’em up at MY convenience.

Mailbox nonsense… why we’ve transitioned into this fun little arc I don’t know but I suspect Kat’s party is still going to come up later. It’s something I like about the Steenz era: she has a habit of having ongoing story arcs instead of just having them be one and done or threading one off arcs into larger stories. It’s something that’s often missing from a lot of comic strips and while some truly rock the one off (Wallace the Brave Especailly) i’ve always preferred long term storytelling in my funnies. And having it fills the void that For Better or Worse (which is still around but in reruns) and Doonesbury (which went sunday only just for a while and never looked back or explained whY) have left.

Does this actually happen? I’ve never had a note saying they wouldn’t try again if they’d only missed once.

The best ones are where you sit in the house and they leave a tag claiming you were gone because its easier and faster than delivering the package.

Guess they delivered something after all: bullspit.

I love how they put the little heart at the end.

(Shakes fist) DE JOYYYYYY!
