I feel sorry for Hanners. Not only did she drive away a boy with her horribly disfigured smile, but she's going to give herself nightmares with it too. Bad day...

 :lol: @ Hanners - Now she knows why that poor guy flinched.

Nothing like a little mirror driven self improvement to help a girl along.

I don't think Hanners has a disfugured smile, I think she doesn't know how to smile and just puts full force on all her facial muscles, which is how childrens books depict it.

I like the artwork in this one except for one issue:

In panels 2 and 3, Hannelore has hair tucked behind her ear but that doesn't show up in her reflection. 

Perhaps I'm channeling her OCD here.

If you want to get really picky about it, given the angle of the viewer, relative to the mirror and Hannelore, we'd likely be seeing her folded towels, and not her face.

But it's aight, I ain't judgin'. :P

Honestly, the only difference is that old Hannelore was a lot more confident and spoke her mind. That and she used to straighten her hair, I guess.

And apparently had enough experience watching men and relationships to make snippy little comments about them, and to quickly both cut past the bs and sum up Marten's situation.

New Hanners does speak her mind occasionally... most recently: http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1388

Other times: when Marten called Faye an alcoholic, and I think Faye got drunk after having sex with Sven, and Hanners went critical.

Few things make me happier than being able to quit hating Dora.  I've always liked her, but there for a while she was seeming irrational and crazy.  Now she's back to being fun and awesome.  I hope this her stays around.  A little insecure is okay, most girls are to a certain level.  But, crazy controlling bitch isn't as much fun to read...errr watch...errr something.

It was worth it for the looks on Faye and Dora's faces in the third and fourth panel

Our Hanners has definitely developed a wicked sense of humour - Or is it the influence of the aforementioned?

Looking back at http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=669 makes me note that Hanners has changed a lot. When did she give up smoking, short hair, and wearing tidy clothes?

In all seriousness, it reminds me of looking back at old Peanuts cartoons, and seeing how those characters evolved in drawing style (albeit over a number of decades).

OK, how's this for an exceedingly annoying nitpick: I don't think the writing on the "Specials" building in panel 3 (EDIT: panel 2 is different as well, 1 and 4 might match, though) matches what's written in the other panels (though the building itself does). Not that it matters, it's just the kind of stupid thing my brain catches after being an editor for a while.  :roll:
