--- Quote from: jheartney on 02 Apr 2015, 20:34 ---I'm thinking from the general disheveled look and the black eye that that's dirt from the ground on his shirt. Did he get pushed out of a vehicle? Dragged somewhere? Got mistaken for an android...

A disturbing thought.

Especially if it's all three. Anti-robot hate crime? Shit, would Jeph go there?
Edit: Probably not. It'll just turn out to be some wacky adventure.

--- End quote ---
Is someone saying that it's okay to beat up Clinton for saying something you don't like?

If an injured Clinton is played for laughs, then it's implicitly saying it's Ok to beat him up for whatever reason.
(Not sure it's being played for laughs, but the tone is a bit jokey.)
Tova:
I admit, my reaction was 'oh shit', rather than 'ha ha ha'. And I usually appreciate the 'played for laughs' comics.

--- Quote from: jwhouk on 03 Apr 2015, 16:13 ---Monday's Strip: No mention will be ever made of what happened, and no one will every say anything when asked.
Emily will have mysteriously disappeared permanently from the strip, and no one will ask why.
--- End quote ---
Steve also vanishes, and Jeph begins writing a spy-themed spinoff comic starring him and Emily, using their street smarts and tech skills to hunt down and recapture an escaped rogue Vespavenger.
--- End quote ---
Turns out the Vespavenger has defected and now works with Tortura in an independent espionage company, Steve of course is horrified and refuses to join and thus Emily must become the US's inside agent.
I dunno about anyone else but I'd read that so hard.
