While David finds solace with Katchoo, Francine can think of nothing but her past relationship with her former best friend and brings home a tattoo to prove it. It seems that Katchoo is destined to move on without Francine into the world of glitz, glamour, and art showings with her stunning display of 100 nudes. As Katchoo becomes the toast of the town, Francine finds herself looking for peace in the Caribbean. Our unlikely friends seem to be drifting apart until they are set on a collision course back to Houston! No library descriptions found. |

Frnacine has married Brad the doctor. Katchoo is doing her best to go on without her, mostly by focusing on her art career. David and Katchoo almost get married, then decide it would never work (Katchoo is entirely gay) and just settle into sharing a house and loving each other. Casey in working as a Las Vegas showgirl. Freddie Femur is still a right-wing sexist blowhard, but he's still impossible to hate, somehow. The usual Parker Girl crime plot rears its head in this volume, but it's quickly resolved...in these pages, Terry Moore takes time to meander and experiment. There's a lot of prose here, a few different art styles, and a detour into the mind of a husband-killer named Molly who has only a tenuous connection to the established cast. The Molly tale is interesting, but very out of place here (especially since it ends the volume)...
Long-running comics (like long-running TV series) struggle to remain compelling as they go on...the sprawling canvas is hard to manage. SiP 5 is full of meandering and reflection; I wouldn't recommend it as a first taste of the series, but for a SiP junkie like me, it's candy.
