Can't ... resist ... sigh, OK:
His name is still MARTEN!
Marten with an 'e'!
MAAAAAAAR-TEN!
You were waiting for this, weren't you? Well, there you go - hope you're happy now. :grumpypuss:
A Duck:
I always wondered about that. Is the fact everyone apparently calls him "Martin" some sort of in-joke?
It's like anywhere I see any sort of QC discussion some people always repeatedly call him Martin.

No, it's just a case of misspelling due to your brain auto-completing the name with the more common spelling in your experience.
Then pendants like Case decide to make a huge thing of it because... Well, I've given up getting what that's supposed to achieve by this point.

Hoisted by our own pendant, were we?
think_tomorrow:
I agree with Zebediah - I didn't see anything from Marten's end that was any less or any more immature than what Padma pulled herself. I mean, if we accept that she was feeling distraught or uncertain over where the relationship was going - how was ghosting Marten for a week and avoiding a serious conversation any better than him rejecting her last-minute offer to "hang out"? It was a little odd that 2101 was written to basically lay the blame at Marten's feet. His action was petty, but no more so than Padma's. And he took the step of writing to her afterward.
Seriously, 1400 strips later at this point this is a non-issue, and if there is some blow-up drama over this I'm just going to end up feeling disgusted with everyone involved.
