Knight of Cydonia:
I... wow. I'm not expecting great works of literary genius or anything, but I can safely say that was some of the most disappointing "character development" I've seen in QC's entire run. Hell, it feels like everything has been sort of thrown at us at a really weirdly fast pace recently. That might just be the direction Jeph wants to take things and that's cool, it's his choice, but I hope the trend isn't gonna continue for Faye's latest meltdown.
Daniel Patrick Moynihan:
Background change in that instance was fine, great in some others, like Libaries: Serious Business. Not a fan of the "huggin' it out" or "relationship status: optimistic" though, it pushes the already sickly sweet into the Saccharine Zone for me. I prefer LOOM or FOREBODE.

My first thought on seeing some of those backgrounds was that it must be time to refresh the merchandise line -- I'm sure each of the panels you mentioned (with the possible exceptions of LOOOOOOOM and FOREBODE) will be seen again as mousepads, t-shirts, tea cozies and the like.

Weirdly fast? Umm, what? Didn't we have like an entire week for one Clariten date? Whatever, that's irrelevant to this specific arc.
I don't see any new development here at all. Dora wants this to work out, and so does Tai. We knew already that Dora felt bad about how she reacted to Tai's insistence; it was the last line of 2909. Admitting there's a problem isn't the same as actually changing.
She might do it, but I just feel like she's said the same thing before. I like Dora, but she does tend to make the same mistakes over and over again.

And let's be honest. That is very, very, human.
