Like
aging baby boomers, the cartoon strip Funky Winkerbean and its
creator, Tom Batiuk, have turned gray with life's ups
and downs in a 40-year run on the funny pages.
The 65-year-old Batiuk has changed his characters over the years
from mop-headed beatniks to graying 60-somethings. And over the
years Batiuk himself has turned gray, his once-collar-length
hair now cut short.
The storylines have changed, too: from high school hijinks and
awkward teen dating moments to dealing with adult issues like
alcoholism, suicide and cancer. His latest hot topic storyline
during May: two boys who want to go to the high school prom
together.
This year's 40th anniversary of the strip was marked by the
publication of the start of a multi-volume set of the strips.
