Lucky

Lucky is a scrapped comic strip from Thrift Shop Tales Family Entertainment. The graphic to the right is a modern reconstruction of the titular character. Created in Fall 2015, the first issue only had its cover completed. Due to a computer breakdown, this cover does not exist anymore.

Plot

The Lucky strips were planned to be similar to Garfield, Mutts, and Peanuts comics, but with added emphasis on Christian messages in addition to humor. The format was more of a "gag a day" style than anything adventurous so as not to be too similar to other publications from Thrift Shop Tales.

Other "Gag A Day" Strips In addition to Lucky, some other strips of its style were planned but never realized. Stickerbush was a strip that closely followed Lucky 's plot, but centered on dwarf mongoose Stickerbush Hastings and her humans. Unlike Lucky's sweet, gullible nature, Stickerbush would cause trouble with her headstrong, cunning personality. The first issue's cover, but nothing else, was created in Winter 2015. Sicko was essentially a carbon copy of Stickerbush. Like that strip, only the cover was made, and it is completely lost. In Summer 2017, another strip named Flirtie and Goliath, which centered on two scrapped Yakko-like characters, was created, but was drawn in a notebook and never on a computer. For unknown reasons, this strip was cancelled. Finally, Summer 2018 brought about another gag-a-day strip called Soo 'n' Johnny, which focused on the eponymous conjoined twins. To concentrate on Thrift Shop Tails, however, it was scrapped.
