Mary Worth 2017

Seven years ago, Terry Bryson appeared in a public service announcement about online scams that was arguably the longest two weeks in Mary Worth history. Terry Bryson appears to still favor old timey brief cases, although she has traded concrete for wood, and I'm guessing she is no longer wearing a Star Trek ensign uniform under that overcoat, but has been promoted to lieutenant. I, for one, couldn't be more pleased. I assume this will be a public service announcement about not dating super villains.

The comments on the previous MW strip you referenced, Wanders, made me snorkle my coffee. Gosh, I love this blog!

Yea, Adam is a stalker! This story could be great.

Where's Dawn? Adam is a wounded, obsessive male -- perfect for our favorite purple girl.

Maybe the reason Adam Miller is travelling so lightly is because he isn't going to be staying very long. He is just there to woo Terry Bryson over to The Dark Side Of Justice.

I wonder if either one of them has a phone in his/her shoe.

What's with the second door?

Ensign Bryson is back!!!! This is great! Red Alert! Break out the concrete briefcases!

Toots McGee said...

So Terry Bryson is the one thing Adam Miller can never let go of?

I'll bet Adam and Terry were on the force together long ago. Adam was mounted police and Terry was in cybercrimes. They teamed up for a case that called for their unique talents and something stirred between them, until...

Wanders, your archive of characters is essential - thank you very much! "Terry Bryson" rang a distant bell, but I could not remember who she (or he) was.

I love Terry's posture in the first panel. Even her ponytail is reacting in astonishment. I'm astonished also - I never expected KM to dust off a character from so far in the past. Maybe there's hope for those of us pining for a return of Jill Black (the drunken, angry Jill, not the contrite one).

Could it be that Adam and Terry are twisted super hero/villans in the vain of Batman and Catwoman? All happening in quiet Santa Royale? Excitement abounds . . . until Mary's meddling powers destroys the dynamics and we end up with the two happily married and sent off to Gotham City in the most boring way possible.

Just for a fleeting moment, I thought there were three frames in today's MW. But it was just the door partition.

Terry looks grim and determined (although the ponytail undercuts her badass frown). Seems she is not altogether pleased to see Adam. Probably she remembers how she discovered he was a rogue cop and had to shoot him in the knee...

Adam's attempt to walk without his cane is about to end horribly. Terry Bryson's next public service message will be how to avoid trip-and-falls

Gina said...

Adam really IS a supervillain. The power of his greeting blasted her backward into the doors.

I don't know but considering Terry's "gasp" maybe Adam's cane wasn't the only thing he dropped. Hey, come on - he is wearing a trench coat after all!

Oh please, if only one of our faithful contributors could be right and this story line would turn out to be even mildly entertaining for the next six months, that would be great. But I'm afraid that "r u ok?" has called it. Moy apparently can't think outside the "happily married ever after" box. KitKat, Jill Black for you? Helen Clark for me!

Stepford Husband said...

While we're bringing back past characters, let's bring back Nola Wolvenson! She was THE BEST!!!

Also, Wanders, I don't think that Adam is a superhero. At best, he's a mediocre hero.

OMG. Have I been reading MW for 7 years? I believe I joined just when Toby got scammed. Time flies, just not in Santa Royale.
