Luann – From Early Teenager to Young Lady in 40 Easy(?) Years
Skip to comments
Greg and Karen Evans and Luann fans around the world are celebrating forty years of the comic strip.
On Sunday March 17, 1985 a thirteen year old Luann began appearing on comics pages.

Greg and Karen have a few celebratory items at their Luann Fan site.

“How Luann Begann” is Greg telling how his dream of becoming a syndicated cartoonist developed.

“How Luann Begann” presents the original art from the first week of the daily comic strip and then elsewhere Greg and Karen reimagine that first week with Luann and Bernice as 53 year old adults.

Do you have a favorite strip that you’ve created? If yes, what one?
My job is to entertain readers and make them want to return, day after day, with compelling stories or high hilarity. My favorite story is the series of May 6, 1991, when Luann gets her first period. My favorite funny strip (to me, anyway, since humor is subjective) is the Sunday, November 13, 1988, when Brad bashes his thumb.
