“The Fear Of Swimming”

In "The Fear Of Swimming," Terry Moore delivers another emotionally charged chapter of Strangers in Paradise, exploring intimacy, insecurity, and the quiet fractures beneath seemingly ordinary moments. As David grapples with sudden wealth and Casey reaches for connection in increasingly desperate ways, Francine confronts her own unease—only to return just as tensions peak. With Moore’s signature storytelling and expressive art, this 1999 issue captures the fragile, complicated dance of desire and self-worth, all rendered in his distinctive style, both cover by and interior by Terry Moore.

Francine comes to an understanding of herself and why she felt so threatened by Katchoo’s paintings. Casey wants to be loved and needed by someone so much that she throws herself at David, then Katchoo. David gets a phone call informing him he’s "Bill Gates rich", and its too much for him. As he and Katchoo cuddle and talk about it in another room, Casey thinks they’re having sex and decides to join them. Just then, Francine walks back into the apartment.
