Okay, so I'm guessing about if these questions are ever asked. If you have a question that's not in here, click here.
What is FoxTrot?
FoxTrot is this cool comic strip by Bill Amend. It's probably the best comic strip in the
papers, now that we don't have Peanuts and Calvin and Hobbes. The main characters are
Roger Fox, the father with no electronic skills, Andy Fox, the hardworking mother, Peter,
the 16-year-old with a really fast metabolism, Paige, the 14-year-old girl desperately
trying to find Mr. Right, Jason, the ten-year-old school-loving math genius, and Quincy,
Jason's pet iguana.
FoxTrot isn't in my paper. Can I still find it somehow?
Well, if you visit FoxTrot.com, you can read the strip from two weeks ago, and click a
link allowing you to e-mail your local paper requesting they put it in. There are annual
book collections and biannual treasuries available at bookstores everywhere.
When was FoxTrot first published?
FoxTrot was first published in 1988.
Where can I find out more?
At FoxTrot.com, the official web site, of course!
What does the "A" on Peter's hat stand for?
It stands for Amherst, the college Bill Amend went to(Roger Fox went to Willot), but it
could be thought it stood for "Amend".
Why does Elieen like Jason so much.
After Jason "let" her get the highest score on the math test, she thought he was
the sweetest boy in the class. Plus, as Jason said, "Why, the ghostly white look[is
in], of course! You should see the girls that attack me these days!"
Will Paige ever find Mr. Right?
Who knows? Maybe she'll settle for Morton, or maybe she and Tommy Smith will go out more
often.
What is the column Andy writes?
"On the Home Front", by Andy Fox(later by pen-name Erma Landers), a column about
things that happen with families where she writes embarrasing things about their family.
Who the heck are you, and what is your connection to
FoxTrot?
My name is David Ganssle, I was born on July 2, 1987(the year before FoxTrot was
introduced to papers), and my connection to FoxTrot is only that I am one of the strip's
biggest fans! I am the founder of a small group of kids, Wacky and Crazy, which is an
entertainment group named after a comic strip I draw.
