WCDT: 2131-35 (27 Feb- 2 Mar 2012) QC IN SPAAAAAACE! Week 6
SomeCanadianWeirdo:
Interesting to see that I'm not the only one that thought Lt. Potter looked like Cosette in 2133. It would be funny if she turned out to be Cosette's sister, using her mother's maiden name because she figured no one would take her seriously as Lt. Hurlbut.
Yeah, there's no doubt Beatrice is a horribly clueless mom. Perhaps she herself was raised by "the help"(it's implied that she may have come from money) and so really never had any experience of being properly raised by a parent herself.
jwhouk:
I think the reason why we're taking this so serious is because of how Jeph drew Hanners in 2A. We already knew that Station was her "friend" ("he kept the dust bunnies from being under the bed" I think is what she said), and it is entirely possible that they had conversations like in 2125 frequently.
For everything that HannerDad isn't (attentive and focused), he strikes me as being caring and moral - unlike Mommie Dearest. That is probably where she got her politeness and morality.
Black Sword:
You know, according to the official exorcism manual of the Church, demons are known to "run quiet" for a time to reduce suspicion before they rise up again to make the lives of their victims an even greater misery than before.
by the way, does anyone know what Hannelore said in those two Cthulhu strips, and where Jeph got the fonts for it and such?
jwhouk:
Geez, it was probably mentioned in the WCDT's for those strips...
EDIT: found 'em:

It holds up pretty good IMHO. Look at them side by side:
A BCDEF FG HAI'I JGKL
MNLGFKO BAFP MQARSLM
CER TLUGVSE WICMM!
I WA*NT TO FIL'L YOUR
SCROTUM WITH SPIDERS
AND BR*OKEN GLASS!
If it was meant to be typed as gibberish, the chances of it being so close to correlating to an actual English sentence are very very low. Especially one that would be an apt and funny response to a male customer asking you out.
And the leftover letters are J,Q, V, X, and Z.
Go ahead and shuffle them around if you like. Here's a good site to do that: http://www.esg.montana.edu/meg/consbio/cryptogram/crypto.html
(Alternately, if anyone has the original font, they should try to type what Hanners said and see what keys were used. I think someone called it "Linear A".)

Can Marigold understand the Dreamer's Tongue? Or does the very sound of those dread syllables banish sleep?

EDIT: Also, according to our lady from Australia, the font is Miskatonic.
TheEvilDog:
Am I the only one who is kind of disturbed by Marigold's suggestion in the last panel? I've got visions of Suddenly, Last Summer, where instead of lobotomization, its cybernetic implants as the medical technique du jour.
