Just because somebody has to do it, I'm going to take the position that Jeph just forgot about Dora's hair. :wink:

So its been a while since I've posted.... but after reading this comic three times in a row I felt I had too.
I thought the strip was hilarious during the first read, so I read it a second time, still thought it was hilarious, so I paid close attention to art and details and all that.... and discovered I misread the punchline entirely.... and it no longer became nearly as funny as I initially thought... though it made a hell of a lot more sense.
So here's what I read the first two times in the fourth panel:
Dora: Oh my God, you are going to be so hot when you go GAY
Given the nature of Dora's open sexuality *AND* her penchant for insecurities, I totally thought it was an appropriate line. Now its just a line showing that Dora is totally gonna marry Marten so she can jump his bones for the next 50 years. Still good in my book, but different :lol:

I'm with Zombiedude on this one.

Hey, at least she got it cut! It was gettng in her eyes.
Besides, now it matches the outfit!
She's just falling back on somethiing familiar in a stressful situation.

Well, I thought the double beat-panel thing was clever. Dora's obviously in it for the long term. Interesting fashion choices for her first meeting with Marten's dad though. The conservative black jacket, with the crotch-length miniskirt... :angel:
I confess that I'm not sorry to see the return of "Black Dora". With Hanners and Penelope (and Sarah and Hanners' mum and Dora's mum from the archives), there were already quite enough blondes in the strip. But then I'm biased, because I was sorry to see "Gothy Metal Dora" go generally; it set her apart from all the other sassy twenty-somethings in the cast. But hey, I'm just along for the ride...
