Behind-the-scene commentary from Greg Evans:
When I first introduced Dirk, I didn’t really grasp how interesting – and dramatic – he would make the story. But soon I was doing some really heavy stuff; like the October 4 strip, in which Dirk’s headlights pop on behind Brad’s car. I think this is one of the most ominously effective things I’ve ever drawn in LUANN. It’s just creepy-scary.

And several strips in this collection don’t have a “punchline.” (Some people might say few LUANN strips do at all!)

Back in the pre-Google Images days, I had to raid my son’s bedroom for source material for the car chase sequence. My son was (still is) a car nut and he had a huge collection of automotive magazines. I searched through them until I found enough photos of Chevy Novas and Honda 2000s to use as templates.
