Is this the final strip?

This would be a pretty shit ending.

Yes, it would.

So… it's not over yet? I may sound stupid, but… I just want to hear it from you.

[Jedi Ozy]

I find it a little saddening, always liked her best that way, being the black sheep that she is. As for Avery, still a mystery. And just what is little Tim doing with that sink plunger? On the side, it's cute to see a photo of them together.

"It ebbs gradually faster..."

Wow thanks its so hard to use a old-fashioned dictionary, and the audio pronunciation really helped me read that whole syllable.

(also I agree with Gforce422, it does seem oddly out of proportion)

Yes, it would.

Well, it would be rather philosophical. I would have liked it

[Shinigetsu]

Well I don't think that it will end before the wedding.

(I also think it will probably be in color, but maybe thats just me)

[Shinigetsu]

Also I've finally made one of those "hello" things in the airport section of the site.

[GeorgiaCoyote]

Whoa...pretty deep stuff. I defintely wouldn't see this as the ending. Doesn't possess that element of finality. Then again, neither did the Sopranos finale.

[The Foxish]

Ah, the rites of Summer.

Avery seems to be doing one of two things: either he's found a new trend and he's riding the crest like a suicidal penguin who's not seen the rocky outcropping ahead, or mayhaps he's finally discovered that self-identity begins with "self". Channeling a bit of his brother? Hard to say.

I'll miss Gothy Felicia; for some reason, I really liked the character. Oh well, c'est la vie, eh?

Growing up is hard to do--I know from experience--and I'm sure with Junior High looming overhead like a great descending albatross, it'll happen whether it's appreciated or not.

And the times, they are a'changin'... o/`

(On a side note: am I the only one who reads "SUN" on Timulty's costume of sorts in the first panel and thinks of the Beatles song? He does seem kingly to me!)

[The Foxish]

And additionally, because I forgot like the daft bloke I am: when it's over, we'll know it. That is all.

[Tom Flapwell]

Sharp eyes, Foxish. I didn't even notice that there was anything like writing on Timulty's chest. Hm, if Avery gets annoyed by this "sun," it's all the more reason for him to wear the sunglasses.

While I usually find shaven animals a bit offputting, I like the look of Felicia's shaven head. It's kind of cute.

[FeynmanKR42]

Seeing Avery and Tim acting like that in the foreground, and seeing a photo of them when they were younger on the wall, and the text, all in the same panel nearly put me on the edge of crying.

Does anyone else hear the theme played constantly during the last half hour or so of Lord of the Rings when reading current strips and hearing Frodo's voice narrating?

...no?

Funny strip, I laughed.
