He looks rather handsome in tonight's comic. lol And I mean that in a non creepy way. It was quite a shock to see him.

This comic reminds me of this picture: http://blogs.villagevoice.com/music/images/barack-president-of-awesome.jpg

You can get a sticker of it at Newbury Comics I think.

But, yeah, it's excellent to see Steve again, in addition to seeing Steve self-possessed again.

I think Steve looks rather handsome in this comic in a completely creepy way.

kjohnnytarr · « **Reply #5 on:** 01 Mar 2009, 23:20 »

Steve is a dude I could kick it with.

I think the evil mastermind should have been petting a kitty, but otherwise good comic.

rainbow kittens · « **Reply #7 on:** 01 Mar 2009, 23:21 »

I had to reread the comic a few times to fully digest what I was seeing.

I very much like it.

Am... am I the only one who is so excited about this comic, I'm grinning?
It is so awesome!

I... I can't decide which part is my favorite...!

STEEEEEVEE! I have to join the people who said he looks good in today's comic (I'm not a creep, I swear). I hope we continue to see more of him. Jeph, please don't let him disappear for another twenty years (or however long its been).

Good week start ... but where the heck is the weekly comic thread ?

I registered here just to say this:

Fuck. Yes.

Mister Jacques, if the Fonz jumping over a shark on water-skiis had been even a fraction so specfuckingtacular, they would have made a spin-off of Happy Days where he jumped over shit every episode.

This made my day.

I now have to go shit a brick. A brick made of awesome.

Afterwards, there's a celebratory bottle of Bushmills waiting for me. I'll hoist a glass to you, man.

Shit, who am I kidding, I don't bother with glasses. But I'll hoist the damn bottle.

Her name is Meena, she was Steve's girlfriend the last time we saw him pre-tequila monster.

that was pretty fantastic.

did anyone else notice steve's facial hair in the first and last panel consists of dirty 2-day scruff....but for some reason his mustache is clean shaven?

....did steve retire from ass-kicking government agent to a simpler life of amish bliss...two days prior to running into marten?

http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1029 - that is the last instance of storyline interaction

http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1039 - that is the last time Meena had a line but obviously it does not really contribute to the story.

Imnawtinsane · « **Reply #31 on:** 02 Mar 2009, 06:43 »

This comic was so unbelievably epic, that I now think Jeph is 10 times cooler. it blew my mind, it came from nowhere, answered out calls for Steve's return, and in a totally kick ass way. I've just said only things you could have/probably did think of yourself, but I needed to rant to someone about how epic htis was.

Man, why does Steve got such a bad rap with the ladies?

's no fair, man.

Siibillam-Law · « **Reply #34 on:** 02 Mar 2009, 07:41 »

Steve appears to be most popular character in the series. I'm sure if Marten didn't make an appearance for 300 strips and then came back there wouldn't be such fuss

also:

STEVE! WOOO!

benji · « **Reply #35 on:** 02 Mar 2009, 07:46 »

I don't know. I remember people starting to grumble when Marten didn't show up for a whole week one time. If he disappeared for a year, I'm sure there would be plenty of reaction.

Noff · « **Reply #36 on:** 02 Mar 2009, 08:47 »

Steve isn't the most popular, he's just the likable everyman/best friend character, and in spite of that we never see him.

Today's comic was the funniest in a long time. I didn't really like Meena or Dave, but I hope Steve drops in at least occasionally.

It's exactly not that. This comic absolute proof this is as much Steve as we do need. This wouldn't be nearly as much fun if we saw him every other strip. The last time I enjoyed Steve this much was when he escaped after being stuck in a closet for weeks. (A guest strip way back when).

Now Steve needs to disappear again, then come back in about six months (our time), having been transported to the Planet of Spunky, Chunky Mary-Lou Retton clones to give them personal infusions of genetic material, and then been brought back a trifle run down. There were forty million of them, after all.

altered_carbon · « **Reply #38 on:** 02 Mar 2009, 09:12 »

Meena is a bitch! And Dave is a jerk!

But seriously, that's sad for Steve. At least he came out on top in the end. And it's nice to have a little absurdism injected back in the comic, after all the drama and whatnot.
Way to mix it up a bit Jeph.

Anyone have interesting theories as to what Tortura's scar is from?

cgarci21 · « **Reply #40 on:** 02 Mar 2009, 11:03 »

^ Nope, but WAY TO GO STEVE! We may have missed him but he was there all along kicking ass to save the world.

Even if it was a drug-induced hallucination. At least he's lucid.

Dave was supposed to be Uber nice! Random Proposing is not nice. At all.

Also, I to want a shirt that says Property of the US Department....of kicking your Ass.

This reminds me of some trivia I read a while back about the TV show Alias...apparently J.J. Abrams first came up with the idea for the show when he was serving as the executive producer of Felicity, and he sort of half-seriously kicked around an idea where Felicity would go off for the summer and become a secret agent, then come back in the fall like nothing had happened.

It is entirely possible that is just how he has decided to wear his facial hair.

lol, I remember hearing that.

The best stories come from things that are done randomly (like Steve), because those are what end up being truly original :p

bhtooefr · « **Reply #48 on:** 02 Mar 2009, 14:36 »

Oh, and this comic didn't JUST jump the shark.

It jumped the shark, grabbed onto a low-flying Apache helicopter, hijacked it, and blasted the fuck out of the shark with the machine gun.

But, mere shark jumping... I think that was done in comic 1, with Pintsize.
