I'd better not mention that Harrison Ford didn't do all the action scenes in the Indiana Jones films, and Tom Cruise didn't really fly his jet fighter in Top Gun... :roll:

This required me to dredge up Michael Sembello out of the deepest recesses of my iTunes library... still trying to work up the courage to hit "genius" and see what other evils lurking down there have been stirred up..

I have only one criticism of Comic 2042 and I offer it somewhat hesitantly, because of Jeph's accounting of how it came to be, but here goes. A character secondary to that installment's events will pop on for one panel and vanish thereafter. Most of the time it's one of the AnPCs, who will deliver a line and vanish, even though the scene never shifts. This time it's Hanners. Her reax, even wordless, to whatever Faye's trying to do to Elliott would have added to this episode. Instead, it looks like she ran off; there are "camera" angles in 2042 which could have included her at least incidentally. As I said, I offer this criticism hesitantly because of Jeph's mentions on Twitter and Tumblr as to how 2042 almost didn't happen. I should also mention in fairness that I think Faye's antics in 2041, immediately preceding, are a good example of how to do what I'm talking about ... And Jeph handled it particularly well in one strip, post-"Dorapocalypse," in which the gang plus Veronica are walking along and encounter Sven. Hanners' background reax (and Tai's), though only incidental to the action, help make that strip.
EDIT: Then again, maybe we'll find out in 2043 that Hanners DID run off, still thinking Elliott is a knife killer or something. Or not. :?

Probably to go put on some underwear.
