Philosophical Friday: Aunt Fritzi the Cougar

Mandrake the Magician, 2014-05-01.
Several witnesses see him, including Mandrake apparently. Is that not Mandrake there at the bank?

OK, so Free Fallin' came out in 1989. That means that Phil was born somewhere between 1970 and 1976. But remember that phone call he made to Fritzi when he first arrived back in Three Rocks? Of course you don't because you're not dangerously obsessed with terrible comics, but I do.

So Fritzi was presumably a teenager in 1978. I don't know what the age limits or requirements are for Miss Jr. Three Rocks (or what they may have been in 1978) but America's Junior Miss was for highschool seniors, which is what, 16-year-olds? I don't really know how highschool years work in America, But I think it's safe to assume that Fritzi was a teenager at the time and must have been born between 1959 and 1965 and is therefore about ten years older than Phil.

And if that isn't compelling enough for you, there's also this Sunday strip from 2012.

The Nutty Professor came out in 1963. If my assumptions about the Miss Jr. Three Rocks competition are right, Nancy must be four years old, and Fritzi must have been born in 1959 and now be around 55, while Phil is 44 at most. He could actually be considerably younger. This explains why he looks like a child and Fritzi looks like an adult.
