Circled spot.
It might be a trick of the light, but it does look like an Adam's Apple. I see no such spot on Hanners' neck.

It would seem a bit bizarre since Marten doesn't have a noticeable adam's apple, and I can't really see one on Steve or Angus. Of course, Neither I or my brother have a noticeable adam's apple so it could be genetic.
Method of Madness:
--- Quote from: Oglokoog on 19 Nov 2012, 17:35 ---Has Jeph confirmed it outside of the comic? Because the possibility that they actually are twins and only say they're not is still there if he hasn't.

Wait, what? That's not how it works. It was said in the comic which makes it canon. The only thing that could overturn that is if it was somehow shown she was lying...also within the comic.

Is it REALLY necessary to go through every picture of Claire and point out every physical aspect that MIGHT be interpreted as "male"? It's incredibly rude, disrespectful and really goes against what Jeph is trying to say in the latest comic. Marten reacts with an "OK, cool" because QC is a world of diversities and most importantly, acceptance.
You want to know how to treat trans people? As PEOPLE.

It is when evaluating Jeph's work as a work of writing. If Claire was a real person, yes, this would be incredibly rude. But she isn't. She's a construct of Jeph's mind. These people are just providing proof that this was a planned event that was sufficiently foreshadowed, and not just an ass pull, in terms of the writing.
So far I believe the lips argument has been the strongest one.
--- Quote from: Karilyn on 19 Nov 2012, 05:54 ---Sorry if someone's mentioned this already... But there was another visual foreshadowing that Claire was trans which exists.
Male characters do not have lips in QC, only female characters. Claire has no lips. That's an indication that she's genetically male, as it's a universal sex trait in the QC universe.
