What’s the point in a comment like that nine years after the comic was posted? Making yourself sound omniscient, without actually revealing anything? Sure, it’s not technically a spoiler, but if anyone comes along and confirms it — or denies it — it becomes one. It’d be different if you were actually reading the comics for the first time and said something like that, but since you’ve been commenting on strips for years, I know that’s not the case.
If you want to make a comment like that nine years later, you do it on a current strip, and say something like “What ever happened to Julie?”, or “Oh, look, there’s Julie… I wondered if we’d ever see her again”, and you leave a link to the old strip.
Viewpoint from coming through the archives on a first-time-read-binge: if I had no context from your reply I would have just considered it pointing out an obvious Chekov’s gun – er – werewolf.
I’m sure this will never come up again.
Hah.
