Akima:
Reading today's strip, I had this strange flash of Patrick Stewart putting on the Worry Hat...
Arky:
Yelling Bird needs to be an option for the personalized book.

Oh man Marten must really be feeling like shit...if I were him Hanners' actions would make me tear up or want to hug her or both. My prediction: Dora sees Marten walking home wearing the worry hat and loses it all over again.
I wouldn't call Hannelore's nature necessarily child-like; more like just ultra-naive and innocent. Which I guess is a lot like a child. Shut up, I just woke up. Either way, growing up very sheltered like she was I wouldn't expect too much less. I think it's actually kinda refreshing to see a character like Hanners in a cast full of otherwise somewhat cynical, sarcastic, 20-somethings.
Meanwhile, one of the Mystery-Solving Teens looks suspiciously like our protagonist.
Skewbrow:
Just learned about Leslie Nielsen. R.I.P. They showed Airplane here on national TV just last week. If only I had known :cry:
Didn't watch it this time as nobody else in my social circle would get the Gipper jokes. In grad school we watched it together with my Slovenian housemate and ended up ROTFL.
I agree with all those who think that Marten snapping is long overdue. It is unrealistic to think that he could handle the break up with a meh attitude. He could still be numb, of course, but a valve is breaking soon, soon, soon.

I thought today's comic was cute, I think this is what Marten needed just a little pick me up with no big discussion about how he feels and what happened, all that can come later. Hanners was the perfect person to see Marten right now I think.

I totally agree with you. We needed some Hanners-inspired D'awww for the comic; it was getting so depressing lately. I think Jeph did a brilliant thing, as he is apt to do.
