Those are not vans. The Keeners are wearing normal sneakers/tennis shoes, same as almost everyone else I draw. And as far as I can tell, “vans” don’t have soles that look like that — they run straight across, not running up over the front of the shoe like a lip. A distinctive feature of vans also seems to be a colored shoe with a white sole, which neither of these pairs of shoes are.
If you search Google Images for “tennis shoes,” you will see the kind of shoes these are, with colored soles with a lip up front.
(Furthermore, I’m not sure why 40-50 year olds can’t be wearing “vans.” My wife wears a similar style of shoe, always has, and I’m not sure she’s going to suddenly stop in five years.)
Damn you, Willis! Your style is not particularly realistic, yet you’re pushing all the right buttons. And every new character is distinctly different from the others. I find this amazing.
Their names are Deborah & Jeremiah, apparently. This seems to suggest that Dorothy’s family background is not 100% atheist. At least her grandparents are probably religious. Which should not come too much as a surprise, I guess.
Where did Hollywood go so wrong? I thought movies were supposed to be an escape from reality, a chance to put your worries aside and not have to think about any underlying ideas or concepts. Well, not anymore.

It's not a new argument, of course, but Chesterton dismissed it effectively in 1908.
"You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."

Hawley dismisses Trump lining his pockets with his memecoin: "Listen, I think nobody believes that Donald Trump can be bought. I mean, what does Donald Trump need more money for?"
wilbur, savvy enough to know he's in a comic strip but still not a great actor, awkwardly lifts a muffin up into frame so that we, the audience, understand that he has a muffin right now, which is very important narratively, but he's not really selling it well as an organic, human action
confirming that the reason there's been no Galaxy Version female characters in Blokees until now is that they felt they needed to make Round Lady Thighs For Ladies
It's #webcomicday? We have a special day???
Well, my name is Pat McHoarney and I draw 69 Mouse-Ear Blvd, a multigenerational story about women who all have sexy legs and probably other features. There was a grandmother, but she wasn't hot and so she died off-panel.

okay, juliette still has brown hair, so this is probably definitely a flashback
i'm just surprised that the comic has remembered her, at all

Should 40-50 somethings be wearing vans?
*looks up vans*

I think Dorothy’s mom is hella attractive.

Well he has years to perfect it and didn’t waste them.
They could be Dina’s parents, if Dina was blond and not asian and wore glasses, and was Dorothy’s twin sister…
^ That.
No way they could be Dina’s parents. They’re not wearing hats.
Hmm. Could have been me at 40 or 50. My wife, on the other hand, is more of a slim Billie. Keener Teener … hmm.
Is it me, or does it look like Dorothy’s dad shops at the same sweater store as a certain attempted rapist?
Corothy’s dad has the weakest chin EVER.
Dorothy. *DERP

Dorothy (Dorothea) has Christian connotations as well. Interesting.
Nice character…
