Arlo and Janis turns 20
today. Today’s strip features a flashback to the very first strip of
July 29, 1985 (wow, I was 10). Compared to 75 year old Blondie, Janis
is a veritable spring chicken.
For anyone who isn’t familiar with the strip, time seems to have been
moving at about 1/3 real time. The couple’s son Gene (no relation)
started off as a little kid and is now a teenager. So I suspect he’ll
graduate from college in about 2015.
Anyway, happy birthday to the adult-est (and I mean in a good way) comic strip in syndication!
