Lisa Moore
, one of the central characters of the newspaper comic strip Funky Winkerbean by Tom Batiuk, has lost her fight with breast cancer and died in today’s installment of the daily strip. It can't say is is not a grim end as many readers required Tom not to let her die.
Lisa's odyssey has been compiled in a book, Lisa's Story: The Other Shoe (Kent State University Press, $19.95 in paperback), that went on sale Tuesday as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Royalties will go to Lisa's Legacy Fund for cancer research at University Hospitals Ireland Cancer Center.
