I have long thought Team Tracy desired to pick up a new series of Annie comic strips, given her frequent appearances on this comic. Now, I’m beginning to think they have in mind a complete reboot, given the time and energy they have put into this updated backstory. I’m betting that there will be no knowledge of what happened to Harold and Winifred Gray (nice nod to Annie’s creator), giving Annie an ongoing quest to pursue in any new series. (BTW, I hope one of the characters returning in a new series is Captain Santiago, who worked out well as a kind of “big sister” to Annie before the strip shut down.)
Of course, it’s easy when you’re only – what? Five? Six?
