That's actually why I'm now much happier about all this after strip 3414. Most deus ex machina these days tries so hard to pretend it isn't, but this is just pure straight-faced Euripidean god-on-a-crane, and I reckon if you're going to use the device, do it properly. Jeph knows exactly what he's doing and doesn't care because his narrative interest is clearly elsewhere.
hakko504:
I had a few thoughts as well about today's comic:
Panel 1: Doesn't it look like Creepybot is adjusting their tie, just like they just put it back on. And Corpse Witch looks exhausted to me, like she's been doing a workout, situps maybe? Though it's probably just that Creepybot has disabled Corpse Witch. Permanently, since Jeremy is instructed to take over, or at least until Officer Basilisk can collect the Corpse.
Panel 4: Doesn't Punchbot usually have a couple of tattoos on his face? I nearly didn't recognize him at first.
Zebediah:
I really get the impression that all four panels of today's comic happened simultaneously.

The reason I'm disappointed by the depiction of knitting in today's strip is because the depiction of knitting hands in strip #2904 is absolutely fucking perfect.

Welcome, observant new person!
Also: perhaps the way the fingers work on an AI chassis (especially a fairly cheap looking one like Basilisk's) might necessitate a different way of holding knitting needles from the way humans do..

But is it a depiction of knitting, or a depiction of someone who has just stopped knitting because Spookybot has just materialised out of thin air into their front room...
