I think Dora had accumulated some resentment against Faye all along.
I dont think Faye qualifies as an alcoholic quite yet, even if of course she's on the road to that.

Yeah, all those British convicts showed up and ruined the whole place.

It seems to be that it was an awful place already before that. Wildlife in Australia is apparently very deadly, at least thats how Australians tell it.

I'd say Faye's qualified as an alcoholic for well over a thousand strips.
By the time you're putting yourself in the hospital by drinking because you were fired from your job for drinking, you're generally well into alcoholism.

Is it just me, or is part of this thread better off in DISCUSS?
Also, poor Dora. :( Hopefully Tai can get her to open up, but that doesn't seem likely.

Australia is arguably one of the few places on Earth that classifies as a Death World. The flora, fauna and, in some cases, even the geography is frequently overtly inimical to animals the size, mass and behaviour of humans.
I doubt that most would-be immigrants are aware of this. I'm sure that they are aware of the overt political hostility to them. That they still attempt to enter the country is another proof, IMHO at least, of just how desperate immigrants are to find a better life away from what I must assume is a hellish life in their native countries. A high likelihood of death is clearly not enough to daunt them.

The discussion has generally remained sufficiently in touch with the comic and its characters and matters arising, so I don't think its worth the confusion of trying to split it up.
Also, those suggesting that Dora would have done better to use Marten to pass her message forget that he is currently glued to Faye's bedside, so Dora couldn't give him a message without facing Faye in any case.
