	Funky Winkerbean - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Funky Winkerbean is a comic strip created by high school teacher Tom Batiuk (pronounced "BAT-ick"), which debuted on March 26, 1972.
		It was established that Funky, Les, Cindy and all the rest of the previous cast had graduated from Westview in 1988; their college years were skipped, and the story continued in the present day.
		Funky now co-owns the local pizza parlor with Tony Montoni, Les teaches English at Westview, Crazy Harry is the local mailman, Bull is the Scapegoats' coach, and Cindy is a national-level television newscaster.

	The Unofficial Funky Winkerbean Fan Page: A History of Funky
		For about the first twenty years, time was frozen as readers enjoyed the adventures of high school students Funky Winkerbean and company, the Westview High marching band (led by Harry Dinkle, the world's greatest band leader), and the Westview Scapegoats, probably the losingest football team in comic strip history.
		Funky Winkerbean currently appears in over 400 newspapers nationwide, and has garnered many awards for Batiuk, including the 1999 Inkpot Award from Comic-Con International.
		Funky and Les went to the show (I remember clearly Les finding out at the refreshment stand that he had to buy a minimum of four soft drinks -- an obvious reference to the tour's four-ticket minimum), and Les brought a glove that MJ signed for him - a BASEBALL glove.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Funky Winkerbean
		But perhaps not — after all, Batiuk once scripted a strip in which the title character was murdered in full view of the readers (John Darling, in 1991).
		The John Darling strip, which concerned a self-absorbed TV personality, is one of two spin-offs from Funky Winkerbean.
		Funky Winkerbean is the one he both writes and draws.

		Funky Winkerbean was a funny comic strip about a bunch of high schoolers.
		The cast of characters was a nice mix (although sometimes stereotypical) of students and teachers who could always bring out at least a chuckle from the reader.
		Winkerbean and his pals are all grown up now, but the humor remains.

	Funky Winkerbean's Jim
		Tom Batiuk's popular Funky Winkerbean made its debut on the comics pages in 1972, and today appears in more than 400 newspapers worldwide.
		The cartoonist not only entertains teenagers and adults alike with his portrayal of the students and faculty at Westview High, but has earned high marks for his sensitive treatment of important social and educational issues.
		And because of the popularity of the Harry L. Dinkle character, "The World's Greatest Band Leader," the Funky characters became the first comic-strip stars to march in the Rose Bowl Parade.

		On Sun., the one kid stepped on a landmine and told the guy he was with that he'd step off the landmine as soon as the guy got a distance away.
		Funky Winkerbean takes the prize for dragging out storylines the longest- this is short compared to some others that are still not resolved literally decades later (the baby Les' wife gave up for adoption in HS- is he or is he not the Principal's adopted son?!)
		He is--one year they established that Lisa was remembering her son's BDay and then the principal and his wife took their son out to dinner for his birthday.
