   The joke has been stolen many times.

   Becoming an interesting person for Luann is like Charlie Brown kicking the football that Lucy was holding. But that was a problem for Charlie, and this is a problem for Team Evans.

   There’s an awful lot of Luann’s academic history this strip would need to delete from canon if they decide to head her towards medical school.

   Anyone who likes comics and knows their Shakespeare can’t be all bad.

   Maybe they’re writing Luann out of her own strip.

   But she also needs to be funny. Not just Luann, but many of the characters have been matured beyond their comic premise: Brad (who is now respectable and competent), Toni (who has lost all her mystery and air of danger), Les (who has calmed down and developed some silver lining), Tiffany (who has lost her glamour and exaggerated self-confidence), etc. etc. This would all be fine if the point was to turn the strip into a soap opera. But absurdity is the strips bread and butter, but these days all the absurdities peter out.

   Very brave to ridicule the blandness of your own comic invention. Years ago Luann had a lot of character. It’s like the strip is complaining “I cleaned up my character and now I can’t do a think with her.”
