Correction; Jimbo is awesome. He'll pop in again, but you need to be in the right dive at the right time.
I'm concerned about Raven. How do you bring back a character who just fell off the earth so long ago? None of the other characters ever even referenced her - "I gotta go help Raven at the shop" or "Ravens covering for me tonight" would have explained most of her absences, "Raven quit and moved to Canada", nothing! It's like she never existed! And no one seems to miss her, either. :cry:
I mean, it's not like she could just show up serving coffee one day with no one even blinking an eye! :-o
Of course, she could show up with a Steve-like story about the submacopter...
...and her new boyfriend, Agent Turing...
Just sayin'. :wink:

I don't know, Raven has made some really short and sudden returns a while ago. I was hoping she'd be back for good, but no luck...
I really think Raven is a lot more funny and interesting than say, Dora or Penny. I like all of the characters really, I just like some more than others.
Is it cold in here?:
Raven's backstory could make a really interesting set of strips.
Apparently I am the only one who misses Mieville.
Pizza Girl could show up on a day when Pennelope calls in sick, thus perpetuating the mystery, but Jeph may be tired of that joke.

I mean, a lot of the story arcs run parallel to each other so not seeing a character for what seems like a long time really isn't. It's kinda relative I suppose.

yeah for all we know its been a week and shes on vacation to see family or something.

Someone even nerdier than me could count the number of changes of clothes since the Submacopter episode.
Raven's Twitter hasn't been updated since June 28, which is a bad sign. I really hope Jeph hasn't given up on her. I can see him worrying that Raven-the-ditz was getting stale, but we know that Raven has some hidden depths and surprises waiting for us. I cite strip 838 and the math in 764.
Would Faye get jealous if Raven finally got her wish about Sven?
Carl-E:
Raven's "wishes" for Sven were pretty basic... and that would be backsliding for Sven!
