MEGATON: Did Lynn just kill off Grandpa Jim?
« on: October 03, 2007, 02:22:49 PM »
It can't be what it seems.  Lynn said that the characters would stay as is when the comic moved to its new format!  Of course, that was before her divorce. . .

Thoughts?

There's no way she did that! I bet it's a stroke  :'(

I wonder if his dialogue will be slurred from now on

FBOFW is moving to a new format?

I noticed the strip using ye olde art style, and telling flashbacks, then having some that maybe weren't flashbacks but were in the same style, etc.  But I haven't been reading it regularly enough to keep up.

So what's the deal?  She was going to freeze the characters in time to avoid killing off the parents/having to come up with subplots for the fourth generation?

I bet he died, because she plays on the fact that some people have premonitions when people close to them die.  See ya, Jim.

This comic depresses the shit out of me because all the characters are old now, thanks for reminding me how old I am Liz!  Comics are supposed to be an escape, not a slap in the face.  Bitch.

He's been senile and distinguished mentally-challenged for a while now, due to a previous stroke.  She can't go back to the stroke gold mine again.

FBOFW is moving to a new format?

Instead of retiring, she has moved to a new flashback-based format.  So instead of giving up her slot to a more deserving comic, we can live Foob forever in a shitty clip show format.

She previously said that there would be no more advancement, and everyone would remain as is, but she is in the middle of getting a divorce with her husband, whom was CHEATING on Lynn with one of their Foob employees, so all bets are off now.

Also, there is a much publicized death in Funky Winkerbean this week, so Lynn may have gotten vindictive about her divorce and decided to snipe the Wink's hype.

Doesn't she sometimes animate these strips online to make her characters blink? I think the last panel would look extremely funny if it did that.

Update: Grandpa Jim had another stroke and is now unconscious in the hospital.  His ultimate fate is still unknown.  :o
