Collecting the entire journey of these two fan favorite characters from the Luann comic strip - The Saga of Brad & Toni Book 1, coming in November!

Hey Luann fans! Brad and Toni shared their baby news yesterday, and you can head over to luannfan.com to vote on some key baby stats. This and the rest of Brad & Toni's journey will be available in the two-book collection: The Saga of Brad & Toni. #luann #comicstrips

I am doing my best to restore and remaster these Van Boring cartoons, including restoring the zipatone that in some cases I didn't even know existed until I started doing this research. On the left is the version I found online years ago. On the right is my remastered version.

Thanks to @daily.cartoonist for the shout out! Also, check out the connecting covers for our two-volume Luann collection! #luann #comicstrips #origincomics
