Yup. We’re taking a short break on the Abby Amour storyline. Why? Well, I want to spend the rest of the month doing holiday gags.
But Abby will be back Jan. 6. And, hopefully she’ll be a little less dead by then!

Hi, Tony. I love this gag. As for the spoiler, let me think about it. But so far I’m thinking it might work better--and thus be something we’ll use—if we make some very small modifications:
CAPTION: Is this the end of Abby?*
CAPTION: *Hint: We still have lots of Frazetta art. So...
CAPTION: Find out for sure when we return from our big, cliffhanger holiday break--Jan. 6!
