Never hold a fart in... it'll travel up your spine into your brain and that's where shitty ideas come from...

Oh my god, how is Claire so cute in panel 2?

Seriously like the art in this one. And the awkwardness. I always like awkwardness. Makes me feel better in comparison  :mrgreen:

I was about to say the same thing, in contrast to yesterday's. (Which I didn't care for at all.) (I should clarify I'm referring to the first two panels of today.)
Jeph's drawing style is one that I find admirable and awesome, but to me the devil is in the backgrounds and contrast. Now, this is partly biased since my phone adds a slight orange tint to everything which messes with my first impressions, but looking at today's versus yesterday's on my PC it's still apparent: Yesterday's comic had vaguely tan, white, black and red colors on a slightly orange-tan background. The background provided no contrast, it was in fact a mix of the colors on-screen blended together to look flat and provide little context.

In today's comic, you've got blues, greens, tans, browns, and a little red from Claire's hair. The background colors match the foreground like yesterday, but unlike yesterday the background doesn't feel like a color-palate mashup. Marten, wearing green and with pale skin, is wonderfully contrasted in front of brown doors, and Claire's red-blue palate is instead placed in front of greens and light tans, giving both characters a lovely background to contrast with their appearance.

And then the last two panels of today give a light background that very closely matches the character's skin, giving them a washed-out look just like yesterday.

I've got a love-hate relationship with the artwork, is what I'm saying.
