They should do a DtM strip set ten or fifteen years in the future.
Walter has, after years of therapy, finally overcome the relentless bullying he suffered as a child and now runs a successful florists' business with his partner Berty Blenkinsop (they plan to marry in the summer).

Meanwhile Dennis is a smackhead/in prison/dead.
