Happy New Year!
To this old school lady it looks like you are working with a new brand of pen (or ink and nib). No major wonky-ness, but just a little bit different from older Bug strips.
I’m not sure how 2017 was a bad year exactly.
I mean, it’s been a rollercoaster with more downs than ups for me personally, but I doubt most people in the world care about my health, career and love life.
Is everyone just talking about American politics?
I think the proportions look a little different than normal, but that could just be me, and/or adjustment to the new equipment. As far as I can tell, levels of actual wonk are within acceptable tolerances.
As far as 2017 having been awful, I personally didn’t find it as bad as 2016, but I can see how it might have been for others. But the good news is, if the trend of progressively worse years doesn’t end at some point, the world itself will. So either way, we’ll be done with it eventually.
So, is the tablet to blame for the strip’s “96E3099B-4EDE-4F4F-98EB-25D31B688C27.png” filename instead of the expected “2018-01-01-Deal-of-the-Century.png” one?
It’s no use, just burn it and hope the fumes aren’t toxic.
Eh… still better then 2015 and 2016.
Still garbage though.
I dunno…
Was a great year for video games!
So… will every year from now on be declared as the worst year in history, or at least a remarkably horrible year?
Hopefully not from now on. But until things start getting better instead of worse…
Happy New Year!

I think I spotted a wonk in panel three, living on the old guy’s upper lip.
I don’t think we can draw conclusions just from the first strip on new hardware. Ask us again in a month.

Hurricanes and wildfires come to mind.
I got to visit Disneyworld in 2017. So it wasn’t all that bad.
Honestly, I couldn’t tell a difference in the look–but then, I’m not a “details” guy…

That would be correct.
Looks great, Adam 🙂
Eh, I’ll take any unwanted 2017s. Mine was actually great, and I’m getting anxious for 2018
So, what is 2017’s resale/re-gift value now, compared to 2018?
…I have a feeling 2020 would have an even lower resale value.
This hits a lot different in 2021….
