F16 - Patriot Games

I can't help but draw influence from professional comic strip artists when I write Forever 16. And while the 1990s strips are heavily influenced by Bill Amend's "FoxTrot", the 2000s strips are more like Aaron McGruder's "The Boondocks". Case in point - this politically satirical story from November 2001. In the paranoid atmosphere of post-9/11 America, Michelle's got to be a lot more careful with what she Googles.
