It's pretty awesome.
I do love the expressions in the last panel.

I've long thought Jeph excels at facial expressions.
Oh, when you suggested Pintsize for Vice-President, was the pun deliberate?

All my puns are intentional. :mrgreen:

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?

You have it right: http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1046
Is it cold in here?:
What's known about Hannelore's psychological history is consolidated at
http://questionablecontent.wikia.com/wiki/Hannelore_Ellicott-Chatham
It's all of the above, plus psychotherapy. She is immeasurably better now than in her childhood.

That's about the long and short of it. Her radically different behavior at her introduction is explained in story as a change in medication and she's had fluctuations in functionality with some significant break-throughs since.

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.

Also need more Winslow, but that's neither here nor there.

Yeah, Hanners was on incredibly powerful meds when she first spoke to Marten, hence the rather confident way she spoke. However, if I remember correctly, she didn't like those particular meds because they were so powerful, which is why we started seeing the Hanners we recognise now, the residual meds were being metabolised by her system.
Actually, Hanners tends to be a little unlucky when it comes to new meds as there was the time she forgot to put trousers or a skirt on...and why she didn't freak out when she was given a spare skirt.
