In a traditional family, last names descend through the father. As in Tara is a Starr because her father was a Starr and her grandfather was a Starr. Likewise Walt’s father and grandfather would have to be Starrs. While Tara’s mother would not be a Starr nor would Walt’s mother. In a non traditional family all bets are off.
Since Walt and Tara are both Starrs, they are related through their grandfather. Walt’s family appears to have more than the average number of law breakers, violent people and assorted deviants. Walt is trying to get away from his family and re-invent himself. He was living in his car when we first met him and depended on the kindness of freshmen girls (Bernice, Tiffany, maybe others) I suspect he fled his family to escape abuse. This is not canon.
I wonder is Tara’s cousin, Stella Starr could be Walt’s older sister.
Dez is not a “closeted lesbian” not that there is anything wrong with that. Dez is not closeted because nothing she ever says or does is kept secret. If she were a lesbian she would tell people just as she told people that she’s a nudist.
I agree that Dez would be a good person for Walt to talk to. She’s understanding and accepting. And undoubtedly has better advice than a thrill-seeker, a jokester or Lady Freud,
At least it’s not Gunther whining. But, oy! Now Bernice is going to butt in. The last thing Walt needs is a would-be therapist pushing her crackpot ideas on him.
Years ago, Greg’s Sunday comic was multi panels. It’d be nice to see that format again. These Sunday pages could easily support six panels, maybe even eight. You tell a whole (albeit brief) story here.
