While I don't think we'll be seeing Veronica this week (damn TSA holding her up), I think we will be seeing the first baby-steps of Dora attempting therapy.

The only bit of pissing in holy water that was in your post was that you didn't clarify that Hanners and Marigold would not be raising babies as a lesbian couple. The wording is a bit dodgy and could be read that way, which is the only fantastic bit of your post. The rest of it could totally happen as a snowball perfect-storm of shit hitting the fan, given how the characters have been portrayed so far in the comic (all hinging on Marten dying of alcohol poisoning, of course).
I'd wager something much more mundane happens, though:
Marten passes out and otherwise spends the night alone, Faye goes out with Angus to get away from the shithole bummer night she'd have if she came home and had to talk to Marten again, Dora continues to be herself and doesn't make it to therapy until next week, Veronica also doesn't show up until next week (hell, it could be an entire month from now, real time).
Basically, the rest of the week is going to be horrible jokes between Angus and Faye (that have nothing to do with Marten and Dora, because how pathetic would they be as a couple spending an entire date talking about a breakup between one of Faye's friends?)--or maybe decent jokes, the actual humor between characters is hit or miss with the comic humor being in the situations themselves--with maybe a filler comic featuring Yelling Bird and Sweet Tits (did she ever get a real name, or did Yelling Bird calling her that pretty much constitute her naming?) talking about how pathetic the forums posters are because it'll allow Jeph to vent a bit while also exercising his drawing talents.
Is it cold in here?:
I can see Dora "accidentally" missing her first therapy appointment.
EDIT: the characters are all survivors. The only arguable exception is Faye, and even then you have to notice that the car wreck was never repeated and that she backed away on the alcohol-based slow suicide.

I would love to see Jeph handle that. He's never been much of a political animal, though, more's the pity.
galarant:
No Hanners, come back!
He needs comfort...

Check out the welcome thread at the top for hints.

I for one would like to take this opportunity to welcome our new English overlord/colonial master and extend an invitation to the levee on New Years' Day.
