The Seldom Killer:
an incident, scene, etc., within a narrative, usually fully developed and either integrated within the main story or digressing from it.
Seems to reasonably describe each new day, strip or page of QC that gets published. Why do you feel that it's inappropriate?
snubnose:
I still cant make up my mind if Sven's book reads
"Politically correct whore"
or
"Personal computer whore".
Possibly "man whore" instead of just "whore", the "man" part would be hidden.

Because there's only one at most to me- Marten meets his mom. That sense of the word is loose, of course, but 20 strips =/= 20 episodes just because they all end with puns. They're still the same scene/event/quantum entanglement. When you're talking about 20 strips, say 20 strips, don't use an inherently ambiguous term.

The computer tower on the cover is a pretty solid indicator of the second choice.
Also, it's a magazine.

I see nothing ambiguous about the word episode in the context that I used it. To me, Marten meeting his mum is either a chapter or a story arc. I also don't see ending in a pun having anything to do with the classification of an episode.
