I enjoyed the movie, 1982 version I think (the one with Carol Burnette). Never got into the comic strip, or comics in general. Sounds like it just wasn’t edgy enough for this day and age. They would have to make Annie an illegal alien with drug problems and Daddy Warbucks a flaming homosexual, to succeed today. Sad really.

I can’t speak for the comic strip today, but back when Harold Gray was drawing it, it was a highly conservative comic strip.

Correct. LO Annie wouldn’t survive today due to political correctness: she’s white and if daddy Warbucks be a child molester, then it would be acceptable to the libtards.
