Lynn Johnson mentioned in the first run of this strip that she had to keep the story going and was not sure how to finish this arc. What she does is perfect..whether you will like it or not. It was the only way to finish the story line.. and have a hero!
here in the Eastern Townships of Quebec we were directly in the path and it was awesome! Watched from my balcony in a “residence” along with other “inmates”. A cheer and applause went up at totality. Weird scene as it went dark then just a sliver of light as it reverted back. Once in a lifetime experience…for me for sure…And yes I understand how people centuries ago would have thought it to be the end of the world.
@howtheduck…are you for real? This is a comic strip , we dont need the why’s and wherefore’ take it as it is
