Since she's gotten the larger chassis, her voice is that of a human. When she was smaller, it was... different. Tinnier, perhaps?

Not at all. In all the strips from her introduction, through getting her new chassis, until this one, her voice (font) has remained the same. The three Anthro PCs in the comic each have their own unique font. It's always been this way. So, was this an oversight on Jeph's part, or is Momo now, like Pinnochio, becoming a real girl?
Carl-E:
You're absolutely right. Although Momo's font was the closest to the human font of the three robots. In fact, it wasn't until going back that I noticed the difference.
However, the word bubbles did change, but looking back it was not with her new chassis, but right before that. Her last speech bubble that's square is in 1921, a robo gag strip, and before that in 1852, interacting with Angus. But in 1994, right before the new chassis arc, her speech bubbles go round. Although the toaster in 1999 has a square bubble.
So, Jeph was already prepping her to be more human.
Or yeah, the oversight thing. But the toaster... I dunno.

I'm thinking more rendering plant type of deals.

Wow and I thought I was pushing it with a joke about hot apple pie last week.
Anyways, I just wanted to say how neat it is that Jeph is so consistent with his art and lettering that a change in font for a character provokes a discussion. And by that I mean a genuine one, not nerd raging about how any change at all is bad and it is sodomizing our childhoods with fire.
Is it cold in here?:
He's talked before about deliberately choosing fonts for the AnthroPC characters.
