The one problem I have with the strips is that the writer is both showing and telling, so we're getting far too much exposition, what with the dialogue, thought-bubbles, pictures and the editorial narrative. Did they think readers needed to have things rammed home several times before we could follow what's going on?
I know what you mean, Wendy. Another thing that irks me is Jimmy's behavior . . . I never liked the Pre-Crisis Jimmy Olsen, and how they wrote him in this story just made me want to slap him around:
"There goes Lucy dancing with a handsome pilot. Who cares, I'd be a chump to chase her now, after I've met a living doll like Linda! Lucy's never appreciated me, but Linda thinks I'm great!"Now, I do love the pair up between Jimmy and Linda, but the way Jimmy's behavior is in this comic strip is just . . . it makes you want to just scream and agree with Tank why he hated Jimmy in the comics - you might not really see it now, but you will later on.
