For Better Or For Worse tribute-edit, by Mike Peters of "Mother Goose & Grimm," 1997.

Not sure how many here remember these. FBoFW ended about 10yrs later, after a ~30yr run. It was one of those rare-ish strips that aged the characters naturally. MG&G is still going strong.

From the Great Switcheroo project.

i think if it were more clear from the humans' faces that they're perplexed and alarmed by the words coming out of their mouths, it'd work more for me. i hear your point though, it's nice to stick to an established formula, especially when you're doing something different conceptually

    Funny, they look plenty perplexed & alarmed over here compared to their normal faces, but that's as a long-time reader. I could see for less-familiar readers that they just look kind of blank-faced.

    Whatever. We each have our own lens.
