Strangers in Paradise #85

In Strangers in Paradise #85, Terry Moore delivers another emotionally charged chapter of his ongoing series, with Katchoo and David confronting the weight of their complicated past as David finally admits he was never truly "The One" for her—Francine was. The revelation sets off a quiet but powerful chain of reactions, as Casey reaches out to Francine with news of the tangled history between them. When Francine discovers Freddie has shared private photos of her online, her frustration cuts through the emotional haze, setting the stage for more personal reckonings. With art, inks, and lettering all by Terry Moore, and a cover by the same, this issue continues the series’ intimate, character-driven storytelling with precision and heart.
