The final daily For Better or for Worse strip was published today.  If you read the strip in the Toronto Star, you'll see this strip in tomorrow's paper.  This concludes Lynn Johnston's 29 year story about the Pattersons in fictitious Milborough, Ontario. Forever I assumed the story would end with

Lynn Johnston's comic strip, "For Better or for Worse", is winding down.  She says the larger For Better or for Worse story will wrap up at the end of August, and the final new Sunday strip will reveal what the characters get up to in the years to come. I've

Today's For Better of For Worse strip is sweet and all, but I didn't get it.  I simply didn't know what mucilage meant. I need you to be honest with me.  Should I have known was mucilage means?  I suppose the real question I'm asking is, without cheating, do you

The Leaf game was breaking my heart, so I pulled out today's Toronto Star and checked out For Better Or For Worse.  The Toronto Star runs the Sunday strip on Saturdays, so this strip hasn't appeared online yet.  I could be wrong, but I think Jim just passed away. Jim

I'm a For Better or For Worse fan, and I recently discovered a great blog for fans of the strip.  It's called The FOOBiverse! and every day the strip is discussed in a very snarky and hilarious manner.  It's the kind of blog I wish I had started. Speaking of

We have a For Better Of For Worse update. The strip isn't going away, but Johnston is scaling back. Next month, she will start running older material, which will occasionally be interspersed with new strips. She eases into it beginning today as older daughter Elizabeth, just reunited with her old

I've written about For Better Or For Worse in the past.  It's the only comic I read daily, and today's strip has a new layer we could only dream about back in the day. April and Eva are performing a duet at this telethon and along with the lyrics that

I'm shocked.  I checked in on The Pattersons this morning and caught Elizabeth and Anthony sharing a kiss.  I just didn't see this coming, did you? Here's the For Better or For Worse strip, if you missed it.  And yes, I'm being sarcastic, if you missed that.  The final frame

I only read one comic strip on a daily basis.  I check in on the Patterson's and see what's new in the For Better or For Worse universe. I'm confused by today's strip.  Read it below and we'll continue this discussion around the bend. April and Elizabeth are clearly having

We already knew Lynn Johnston was freezing the For Better or For Worse characters' ages next fall, but we now have more details.  The strip isn't actually being retired, there will be new material that would include revisiting storylines from the past and expanding on them.  Everyone will stop aging,

Lynn Johnston's "For Better Or For Worse" is my favourite comic strip by a very large margin.  It's the only strip I read daily and I've been reading it since I was a little whipper-snapper. Not only is it well written with a great balance of humour and reality, but

It doesn't happen often, but it happened today.  For only the second time in recent memory, I'm unsure about a For Better Or For Worse strip. If you read today's strip, you'll see the final frame is Elly's employee staring at a telephone book that appears to have been bitten.

I've received a few emails regarding this comic strip and my plea for help.  There seems to be two trains of thought on this one. The first theory is that John is upset because April mentioned she had the best fishing day when he felt it was more of a

I've been reading Lynn Johnston's "For Better Or For Worse" for as long as I can remember.  It's the only comic strip I read daily.  After reading thousands and thousands of FBOFW strips, this weekend was the first time I can honestly say that I didn't get it. Here's the
