Momma
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Momma is a comic strip by Mel Lazarus which debuted on October 26, 1970. It is currently distributed by Creators Syndicate to about 400 papers.
The main character is Sonja Hobbs, a short, opinionated senior citizen with three grown children and who appears to get major kicks out of nagging them:
- Francis, a chronic slacker with no interest at all in working for anyone or anything (he always looks for loopholes in work contracts), is the single biggest source of her exasperation. He is uneducated and shameless in his mooching and lack of ambition.
- Mary Lou has frequent relationship problems (particularly with her mother, as evidenced by her comment that she was living the comic strip Momma was talking about in the October 6, 2006 strip).
- Thomas is employed, but his wife is the frequent subject of Momma's criticism.
Though based on Lazarus' own mother, he reports that she thought the character was based on his Aunt Helen.
