The For Better or For Worse Comic

There was a time when comics were actually funny. In fact, many still are. "For Better or For Worse" isn't one of them. Its seems lately we have just been getting the "for worse". Lynn Johnson who draws the strip has followed up the death of Farley the dog several years ago with the grandfather recently suffering a stroke and then just before Christmas she had the son and his family's house burn down and him rushing back inside to save his book and nearly dieing. (Actually most people who do go back into burning buildings do die). How hilarious. Maybe Lynn is getting story advice from Leslie Lee.

Ellie, the mother in the comic strip, who is modelled somewhat on Lynn herself has recently retired from her store. Maybe Ms. Johnson should follow suit and also retire.
