I'd say it's more how slow the comic moves. Remember how long that week was that Marten got off work? 192 strips, nearly a full year.. If Marten and Dora had a real, mega-issue troubles lasting for QC days, that's months and months of 'broken status quo' and then they get together again and its been a year since we last saw them like that.

Good work, discipulus.*

I endorse this message. But, to crush your dreams it's not going to happen, is it? But I go for more Penelope. She's still something of mystery.

Secondly, have you ever seen Stranger Than Fiction? Because seriously, the set up is entirely about this theory.

Fie on high-culture examples! (Was it this thread we were derailing with Shakespeare a while ago?) Imagine if Wile E. Coyote met Chuck Jones. He'd probably savage him, just out of spite.
You're right. No story would worth the effort without some upleasant things happening.
I haven't seen Stranger Than Fiction yet, but it sonds really interesting.

Yep, that explains it. :laugh:

i'm not saying that all is perfect in their little world, but i don't know...i think life sucks for the most part so i like to see happily ever afters in my comics, movies, books (on a total side note, i hate the way the whole mary jane/spiderman and cyclops/jean things went)
that being said, i don't want it to happen now and i don't expect it to happen without it's fair share of drama
i think sven and faye have a lot of chemistry and i think it would be fun to see that chemistry play out
and with that, after today's comic...
*does a happy dance*
hanners might not be interested, but faye.... ;)

..Harvey Danger? If so... AWESOME.
And also... Having Faye blush so much could be more evidence for any camp of people supporting Faye and Sven. :roll:
kurzon:
The Sven/Faye thing has been building for an awfully long time, with a definite undercurrent of chemistry. It's a bit hard to be sure, but I think Faye is a bit more aware of it than Sven. The way she reacts when he turns up unexpectedly (Gah!) isn't because she thinks he's a repulsive smarmosaur. Well, maybe it is, but probably because he's a partially-reformed smarmosaur who she finds attractive.
Sven seems genuinely worried that she'll hit him, and is apparently quite genuine when he says she's not his type. He jokes with her but I think he has no 'intentions'. Joking aside, he's never shown the least sign of being interested in taking advantage of her and has had a number of opportunities.
It would be very interesting to see if Sven gets hit by a realisation that there's more out there than 'types'.
