What's the record?

It looks like, from the non-pinned threads, nine pages is the max. The "Ask Jeph" thread is at 49 pages currently, but that is a "pinned" thread.

Eh, was never one to get too deep into relationships, not to mention those of comic characters, so I'll do what I do best... mock the situation from a safe distance!
Round 1... FIGHT!
(Maten and Dora do their thing...)
FINISH HIM!
Dora Wins! FATALITY! Flawless Bitchery!

The speed with which he got over her explosion about Faye, accepted her apology, and dropped it was just ridiculous...clearly it just got suppressed, and now it's adding to the current issue.

Exactly, this is why I was saying Marten's got issues too; I think he represses a lot more than he thanks and he needs to be a little more in touch with his negative emotions. I think his "nice guy" reputation is starting to wear on him a little bit.

--- End quote ---
Well, it kind of is.
She's the one who over-reacted to a totally innocuous situation and wouldn't listen, she's the one who gets angry with him for other girls asking him out and him not mentioning it like it's actually her business or something to worry about and she's the one who just totally invaded his privacy after he explicitly told her not to.

Oh, yeah, Dora's been a bitch to him their entire relationship. She's never made him happy, no. She's never made any sacrifices for his sake, she's never tried to be careful of his feelings in anything, they have never been happy as a couple, it's just been PROBLEM CITY all the FUCKING TIME. These fights that they're having? Real couples don't do that! Because real couples are in love all the fucking time 24/7 and poop rainbows out of their mouths! No one ever gets mad at their significant other over something innocuous! No one ever has huge fights and also no one really ever makes up like a week later!
And none of it has anything to do with the fact that Marten is a completely spineless fuck! No no no! It has nothing to do with the fact that he won't take a stand on anything till it gets out of hand, obsesses about shit but never takes any action, and generally lets any woman with a force of personality greater than a turnip walk all over him until she steps on some area that's a little sore!
(God, why couldn't Marten have waited? For his REAL TRUE LOVE, Faye? You know, the girl who is a huge bundle of issues, still can't emotionally relate to people on the right level, and was all but emotionally abusive to the last dude she was in a pseudo-relationship with? The girl who is never ever going to get over the fact that her dad killed himself in front of her, that's the girl you need to pursue forever. Because moving the fuck on is for losers!)
But hey, it's still not his fault. He couldn't have known that Dora's entire character is just "a bitch" who can never do anything right.
And am I the only person who has noticed that the last six weeks all we have heard in an endless chorus, winding throughout the weeks and always showing up at some point or another, is that cherry of wisdom, that DORA IS A BITCH AND MARTEN SHOULD BREAK UP WITH HER? We had the Tai/Marigold arc, where she barely appeared, and people still found time to call her a bitch. Astounding.
I can't even blame Jeph for this arc, because clearly, it's what a large portion of the fans want.

Seconded. He gets way too much shit from everyone.
