Jeph still tries to stick a laugh in at the end of the strip, so it's not entirely gag-absent. I mean, the most touching moment in recent memory had the punchline: "YEAH! HUG THE #### OUT OF 'IM!"
bhtooefr:
Right, but just because many strips have punchlines doesn't mean that the whole point of the strip is to present the punchline - the point seems to be to advance the plot, and here's a punchline for the lulz.
Carl-E:
Actually, when it first started, it was only two or three gags a week, not a gag a day.
Until Jeph quit his job as an office bitch...

Yeah, I seem to remember him saying in the newspost for this one (very early on) strip that he was never gonna get more risque than it did there. And it was barely risque at all. I found that and posted about it, but I'm too lazy to dig through my posts and find out which one. :P
The point is that Jeph says that a lot. He is constantly breaking down his own boundaries and making new ones. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. :)
bhtooefr:
And I don't think that Jeph's even said that he wouldn't do a Marten/Claire relationship. (Just that Marten would never be happy, and that was clearly in jest.)
Mind you, he's (in jest) tweeted in horror that he's married to a shipper. (Apparently Cristi ships Marten and Claire.)
