Kugai:
While I believe that Marten, Faye, Dora and Co will still be the main Core Cast of the Comic, there coes a point where storylines have to change and alter or the Comic simply begins to recycle itself and you begin to loose your readers.

Jeph has shown a willingness to innovate and introduce interesting and diverse characters in order to maintain our interest and keep us both reading and speculating on where he's going next.  This may be one of those moments and I'm well and truly intrigued to see where the current Story Arc is going.

Now I'm envisioning "Alucard" doing karaoke of "Walking on Broken Glass"...

Tova:
If you've given your word that there are no string attached, and you never lie, the difference matters a great deal.

oeoek:
A couple of things have me wondering. 'Darling, we think you know what we are'. One thing is the 'what we are'. Not 'who we are'... I guess we are talking a very distinct group or organization here, with a clear goal. And while Bubbles does not react to the statement in itself, her consent in the end indicates she does have an idea, and seems to trust them... What does Bubbles know that we don't?

And would I trust someone looking like Emily in panel 2 to mess with my brain?

danuis:
I think we keep forgetting that this is a world where:

1) Artifical Intelligence exists and it has human, or Turing grade, capability of sapience/sophence.
2) During the adventures of the gang, the FRIGGIN SINGULARITY happened.

Those two things already have, for all intents and purposes, and especially the latter, removed humanity from the focus if we were looking at the world as a whole. From that point forward, Humans are less 'Masters of the world' to 'partners' to 'pets' or, more amicably, 'birds' compared to the AIs. Humans are around, sure, they have their wars and their nation states and populace, but now you have a whole new form of life alongside and increasingly independent of Humanity. And as the first few generations of AI who worked with humanity are superseded by post-singularity AI, stuff like this where Faye herself is more and more 'powerless', for lack of a better world, will logically occur.

For now, I'm interested with how Jeph will compose this storyline. It's not #1777/#1780 anymore, the greater world that QC has built is showing up, is all, at least how I'm seeing it.
