Comic Discussion > QUESTIONABLE CONTENT
WCDT 2902-2906 (23-27 February 2015)
Khazgar:
It's been said before, but sometimes the best way of reading the comics is not daily but by reading a whole batch together. This week is a good example - two female characters interacting, we learn a little bit more about Hanners, we see how Faye is trying to cope with her problems and even have a hint of some future plans (rather than forum speculation) - but nothing has actually happened in the way of "drama". I think this also reflects the state of the forums - the readership hasn't changed, there's just nothing controversial to comment on.
You can look at this in several ways - firstly, everyone needed a break from Marten and Claire and Faye needed to be shown to be addressing her problems in some way, and both of these goals have been achieved. It's also nice to see Hanners again and have some "normal" QC interaction with a couple of jokes.
If I may, I would also say that it is nice to have a low-key week - the past couple of weeks were pretty dramatic and I spent far too much time thinking about the comic and all of the (sometimes silly) debates going on here.
Let's just relax, trust Jeph and let the story roll on.
And a question - do people sometimes deliberately ignore the comic for a few days and then look at several strips at once?
osaka:
I feel that the events of this last comic are the very reason Faye reached out to Hanners to "hang around" with her. She's kinda like the canary in the coal mine for that type of bullcrap.
Also, while Winslow might have volunteered to help, he certainly looks like "PUT ME THE FUCK DOWN YOU DISRESPECTFUL LADY". At least from my perspective.

Not me, and au contraire, I gather that some of us, at the more dramatic times, sit up late at night pounding the F5 key until the new comic loads.

Yes, absolutely. Often makes the comic way better than if you don't.

When I first joined the forum, there were people who would make posts here consisting of the text "F5" while they waited - singularly pointless, of course!
