Is QC close to its ending?

<< < (4/10) > >>

Blackbird:
Just to wrap up the hanging plot threads (Marten & Claire getting to a stable place, the Bianchis working out their issues, Emily & Clinton, #holyshitfaye, the Marigold/Dale/Momo/May cluster of stories, Hanners and Juicy, etc.) would take Jeph about 200 strips minimum (and 400 minimum to not do a rush job). 

Once Alice Grove takes off more, I wouldn't be surprised if we see QC go back to three days a week like it was way back in the day, but it's a long way from ending entirely.

I don't think Jeph can ever go back to having a real job.

That wuld imp[ly we're more than halfway through.  I think you mean, "we are closer to the end of QC than we were at the beginning".

Garfield is especially notable, considering how constrained the setting is. I secretly thing Jim scripted all the JonXLiz strips during the years as he went and cached them for the day when he felt he finally  ran out of jokes. Surprisingly long he went, don't you all agree?

Now that long runners are the subject, I have to mention an infamous one: goddamn Phantom, in newspaper three panels a day format. For instance, one arch where Phantom was saving his Diana from a smugglers' cave lasted over a year.

He has a real job, and makes his living from it.  You mean he couldn't go back into menial employment, I think.
