You definitely need to start a FF.Net Page ;D
Platypodes:
Faye's body language from the moment Hanners opened the door onward has been incredibly well-drawn. It's so expressive of all the pain she's going through and of her shift from her classic tough-person posturing to admitting that she's not okay, needs help, and is totally uncomfortable about that.

Well in-comic that was Marten on the night he brought her home. Which also makes me wonder if Faye still has that taser.

Mostly older work and I haven't updated most of the incomplete stories in a while but nothing is posted there that I'm not willing to let people read.

He draws a strip of two about Faye and it's ignored in favour of weird puns and a discussion of popular music.
It's not just here either. The number of posts per strip on the Subreddit has also dropped by about 75% since the focus moved from Claireten.

I think it's just people being content with the comics? I mean, I for example enjoyed the comic - it's not the very best and most awesome Jeph has ever drawn, but it's good. It has Hanners dealing with Faye in a fun way, Character interaction, a pun! Wonderful. But I don't have much of an opinion either, except that I'm still weirded out by the extreme reactions - yeah, Faye overdid it. But pouring away alcohol like it was poison? Cleaning out the apartment? Asking somebody to stop you from buying booze? I feel the normal reaction would just be carrying on while drinking less/nothing, and asking somebody to stay with you to stop you from drinking is a good idea if you feel like you need it. Her problem is not the drink, it's her issues, and she should treat those with care and immediately (calling Dr. Corinne?). Those extreme reactions to alcohol just make the issue worse, in my opinion. If I can't stop myself from drinking if it's right in front of me and smelling delicious... all right, I get it. But if I believe my self-control is so weak that I can't stop myself from going out and buying some, there's something wrong.
But it's not a strong opinion, and I think a lot of it is just different experiences.
When there's a Clairten strip... it's frustrating. I've been ignoring it for a few strips, but the boring writing actually makes the strip a lot less enjoyable for a lot of people including me, so we tried to find out if there were like-minded people and what others thought about it. Same with people who like it a lot. I mean, the general consensus is: We like and mostly enjoy Questionable Content. We don't have to reiterate it in every post - if we didn't like it, we wouldn't be coming back. So you just see the strong mood swings - Comics that are perceived as exceptionally good, bad or those that touch us emotionally.
