Paranoid:
Are we sure Elliot is a bouncer? As far as I can tell, the only reference to it was by Wil in strip 1883, and Wil could have been talking about a different guy names Elliot. I ask because unless Jeph has already said so elsewhere I just don't see Elliot being the sort of person who could handle 'bouncing' people.
Tova:
I can actually easily imagine him becoming a different person when a friend is physically threatened.

That's what I've been assuming. I figure that a bar that has a weeping hour and closets of Victorian dress-up clothes to defeat awkwardness probably let's you get away with quite a bit of shenanigans before they kick you out. Wherever that line lies I think it's far enough along that Elliot doesn't mind bouncing people who cross it. I also think most people, even when drunk, aren't confident enough to try to tangle with Elliot when he wants them to leave.
Is it cold in here?:
Paranoid, yes, we have been jumping to conclusions about Elliot. It's never been stated that he's the same Elliot who bounces at the Horrible Revelation. If he isn't, then there are two large people named Elliot running around town, which is entirely possible.
Blackjoker:
As a side note, Marten and Elliot becoming friends after this, IE friends that hang out, etc. would actually probably be a good thing. It adds someone else that Marten can talk to and commiserate with that will likely avoid some of the douchier things that Steve has done to him.
