More Last Kiss fun courtesy of fan writer “fine jams and jellies since 1982!”
(Last week I launched That Was Then, This Is Now” as an occasional Last Kiss feature. If you missed my announcement and want to know more, here it is.)
↓ TranscriptLast Kiss Presents...
That Was 1963, This Is Now!
What the characters said in 1963...
And what they’d say now!
WOMAN: Well, I did tell you my ring size! and I e-mailed you a list of honeymoon locations!
Next I signed you up for that seminar “How to Make a Commitment!” and then I rented a billboard that said, “Darling, You Knocked Me Up Again...
“We Really Should Make Sure At Least One of our Children is Legitimate!”
But I guess that was too subtle for you.

I’m excited to present a new, reoccurring Last Kiss feature:
“That Was Then, This Is Now!” I created it primarily to showcase the humor of long-time fan
“fine jams and jellies since 1982.”
.
For years Jams has been making outrageously funny comments here on my website. I’ve turned a few into Last Kiss comics. But—because Jams’ quips are about the vintage comics on my site—most are best enjoyed when seen with those comics.
.
So I came up “That Was Then, This Is Now!” I hope you like it. More are on the way over the coming weeks and months.
.
Many thanks to Jams for all the hilarity and letting me adapt his quips.

Mystery Man: Fine Jams
Lots of clever Last Kiss readers post fun comments on
my website. But the fan known as
“fine jams and jellies since 1982” is unique. His frequent and fantastically funny comments—usually about the original comic book panels—have been so popular that he’s developed his own fan base.
.
Years ago, I turned one of his comments into an
actual Last Kiss comic. Today’s comic is the second “Fine Jams” Last Kiss. And there definitely will be more in the future.
.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

The joke in today’s comic comes from a comment on my site earlier this year by a very funny fan who goes by the moniker “fine jams and jellies since 1982.”
Jam (as I call him) frequently posts hilarious comments on my site. I’m pleased to present one of those comments today as actual Last Kiss dialogue. (Thanks, Jam!)
If you want more chuckles, check out Jam’s Last Kiss comments (along with those of Dave Dell and others) over the last year or so.
