jwhouk:
For those of you new to the forums and the strip: every year on Thanksgiving since 2004, Jeph has used photos of turkeys to "celebrate" the holiday - and poke fun at fans of the strip who go over the top with their opinions on the strip.
(The whole list, put together by Mustang6172 who had more time to do it, is here: The Great Turkey Thread)
498 and 1804 are particularly interesting, as they are in proximity to the two "biggest" moments in strip history (The Talk and The Breakup).
(Fixed some of the links, the coding got a little screwy at the end - Method)
TYVM.

Why thank you! I was actually thinking of Pintsize in cheerleader skirt and pom-poms. It's from a filler comic from a while back with Faye, Marten and Hannelore in sports outfits. I've seen it this afternoon when I was re-reading some of the strips, but I cannot find it anymore. Maybe some kind soul can point me to it?

Is anyone else finding that this comic is pretty much thier life this week? I mean, I read it daily anyway but it's pretty much the only thing on my mind, every day now. Also, I wonder if it was well timed, or just a coincidence that it happened around Transgender day of rememberance (a yearly event that remembers all those trans people murdered over the last year, 264 in this years case).

“@IsilD: @jephjacques Did you intentionally time this story arc to coincide with the Trans Day of Remembrance?” nope, serendipity

I have an actual question or two about the comic, after looking through some of these older linked strips.
Now characters change. Sometimes it's due to developmental progression, sometimes it's due to a storyteller changing their mind over what they're looking to do with that character, or discovering what works better for that character, etc.
Hannelore's mannerisms are somewhat different from her early appearances. Obviously some of that can be chalked up to having yay-friends, but she also sometimes freaks for a moment a lot quicker. I want to say there was a mention of changing dosages of her meds way back in the day, but I don't know. Do I have the right of it, or am I inserting something that wasn't there?
Also need more Winslow, but that's neither here nor there.
