Winkerbean comic strip gears up for story conclusion

One of America’s favorite comic strips, Funky Winker-bean, is gearing up for the conclusion to “Lisa’s Story Revisited,” which has been a controversial and highly emotional story line.

Funky Winkerbean is seen in the News & Eagle in its Sunday comics edition. The newspaper does not run the daily strip. However, Lisa Moore, one of the strip’s central characters, who is battling breast cancer for a second time, succumbs to the disease in this week’s daily strip.

Following this traumatic event, creator Tom Batiuk will kick off an all-new story line for the strip with the launch of Funky Winkerbean: Generation Next. The flash-forward storyline follows the lives of the beloved Funky Winkerbean characters 10 years into the future, focusing on the sons and daughters of the strip’s original core characters.

Look for that storyline to begin in a few weeks in the Enid News & Eagle Sunday comics section.

Also, Batiuk has produced a full-color collection of Lisa’s entire battle with breast cancer, from the original six-month story arc in 1999 to the second story act that began in 2006, intensified in May and will conclude completely at the end of this month.
