I actually have a thought about this — but not one I’m really very confident about, so I’m going to let everybody else have a crack at it first.

Seriously, what is it with comic strips featuring Death lately? It’s not just one or two strips: this seems to be a trend across the entire “comics page.”
Maybe all these artists are hitting Middle Age at the same time?
Some sense of foreboding in the air?
The artists have all joined a book club and they’re passing around Neil Gaiman graphic novels?
These two are just from today:


(And by the way, I don’t really get the Lio: Death is going to discuss job opportunities at Tartarus Inc.?

Did she skip a few grades in her sleep?
And how awkward is her transition to middle school going to be since she still looks like she’s 7 years old?
And is Dean going to really be her boyfriend now?


Actually, nothing about this scenario makes any sense to me.
Nah, I got nothing…
