Yesterday we looked at who showed up in 2022. Today we’re taking a look at the where. I can’t wait to hear what Epicus Doomus thinks of his favorite location featuring his favorite characters topping the chart!
FUNKY WINKERBEAN LOCATIONS 2022!
2022: THE FINAL COUNTDOWN
Heya Folks! CBH here!
I am hard at work preparing fun community group activities! Unfortunately the great Comics Kingdom Archive Apocalypse meant much of last week was spent in a frenzy of salvage diving to get as much valuable material saved from the wreck of Act II FW and Vintage FW as possible. Expect much more fun to come!
In the meantime, here’s the first of my patented CBH spreadsheets of nonsense!

Abyssinia, Batty
And then came the last days of December. I’m really going to miss this. As most of you probably already know, we’re going to keep SoSF alive on some sort of limited basis (at least for now), and we have a world-class, outrageously obsessive MAJOR EVENT coming up in early 2023 that might rate as the greatest thing in SoSF history (I don’t want to oversell it here, no pressure, but it’s gonna be BIG), but the days of hilarious, scathing and insightful daily FW content are over for me. Within a few months, words and phrases like “pinned-up sleeve”, “band box”, “green pitcher”, “Boy Lisa”, and “Dick Facey” will disappear from my lexicon, and I’ll be poorer for it. 10:30PM eastern time will never be the same.
