Non sequitur is one of the few comics with something worthwhile to say, and says it with style and sometimes subtlety. And in this case, to cite The Bard, “Much Ado About Nothing.” The whole foo-rah reminds me of Charles Schultz introducing an obviously Black character, Franklin, into the strip a few years ago. Some papers howled, demanding Schultz remove Franklin post-haste or they would drop the strip. Schultz, to his credit, told ’em, Go Ahead; Franklin stays. Thanks, Wiley, for the insights, the witty commentary, and backbone.
