HOLY SHIT BARRY
I HAVE CONCERNS
:psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck:
Ysobel:
Shouldn't we see at least a little of Barry's tattoo from this perspective? - I'd like to identify the motive --
I thought I could make out a dolphin (of course) in #3213 and something unidentifiable above it -
spout? bird?
Also: have we discussed already, if Barry's character is played for laughs in an uncomfortable way?
As of yet, I feel he is still written non-offendingly and sympathetic, but - does everybody see it that way?

--- Quote from: BenRG on 08 May 2016, 23:14 ---I wonder just how long Clinton has been meditating aloud about his situation vis Claire, unaware of Barry's unsettling stare or the passage of time? FWIW, the likelihood that he's going to stay overnight in Northampton and that something is going to happen as a result has increased significantly.
I agree with Jeph; that does look like a cuckoo clock!
--- Quote from: mikmaxs on 08 May 2016, 20:33 ---Let's be honest here: If such a minor delay was going to make Clinton miss his bus, he was never going to make it in the first place.

My guess is that the bar is adjacent to the bus station. Bar Lady probably plans her day based on the bus schedule, given that she can see the comings and goings through the windows! We also don't know how long Clinton has been sitting there, musing aloud!

It's possible that Jeph just failed to include a transition, but seeing as Bar Lady is doing something with the same mixer as she was last comic, and Clinton's glass hasn't moved and is just as full, it's unlikely.
Now, there WAS a very small transition between Thursday and Friday's comic, but if he missed his bus then, it seems weird that Bar Lady didn't say something sooner.
BenRG:
It's not strange at all. She is a busy woman with a bar full of customers to deal with. It isn't her problem if Clinton is so busy thinking about his relationship with Claire that he didn't watch the time when he's supposed to get his bus.
