Unlike most Last Kiss comics, this one isn’t based on vintage comic art. Instead, Diego Jourdan Pereira drew this from scratch and features Bucky—a character inspired by mid-20th Century TV shows such as LEAVE IT TO BEAVER.
Bucky—created by Jack Enyart and me for an animation project—has appeared many times before here. And he’ll be showing up again later this week in a special Father’s Day comic. (Hopefully, Bucky’s dad will survive his Father’s Day surprise.)—John
↓ TranscriptSCENE: Bucky in his scout outfit stands, salutes and flies an American Flag.
CAPTION: Happy Flag Day!
BUCKY: This flag’s even nicer than the one I made...out of
my sister’s underwear!
It’s Always Bucky™
