@Bad Supes,
Thank you for this comment. It pretty much summs up how I think about the end of the arc and Hanners leave. (And so removes the need to write this myself.  :-D )

@traroth,
I see no hint that Hanners ordered Winslow to follow her. That would be completely out of character. I rather think that she asked him and he of cause followed her. Because he is her friend. And that's what friends do.

Claire doesn't have a profile picture. Why? Because maybe she didn't make one. Because all of this social media bullshit is too unimportant for her than to care for such a useless thing as a profile. All the people she writes with know how she looks. So why a picture?

I'd like to see Hanners and Winslow travel the world. It would certainly be interesting (and hilarious). Or maybe she'll start posting her whereabouts on Instagram or send pics to her friends. I'd love to see that.

I think Jeph put a lot of thought and heartblood in this arc and the new character Tilly. And I suppose he was kinda disappointed by the negative reactions Tilly created. Heck, I was too, I loved them! Best character invented for a long time, better even than Bubbles and Brun. But that's just me. And maybe Jeph.
Shooting Tilly to space and sending Hanners on her own  New Pilgrims' Progress (The Innocents Abroad) ended this arc rather abruptly. Maybe Jeph had planned things otherwise and now removes those characters to rethink them? Or all this went exactly as planned and maybe we're in for something completely new and amazing?
I don't know.
But we'll find out.
In my honest opinion Jeph cares too much for Hanners to simply write her out of the strip in such a clumsy way. No, this must be something bigger. Maybe not in the next few months in RL, but I'm sure, we'll hear and see her again.

And maybe Tilly too.  :laugh:
Hope springs eternal.

Welu:
Wow, this was a gut punch. Partially because I've been in this situation a few times where a friend did something like this. It's scary to only be able to support from far away but feel like you can't actually be there to help, even if you're still in contact somehow but sometimes contact was cut. Partially because I would never have expected this from Hannelore, but it does makes sense to me now it's here.

Yeah. This one hurt.

I'm actually sorta sad we wont see more of Winslow at the community center. That looked interesting...

Yeah, that's a bit unfair. Winslow was starting to find his own thing, here. Hannelore is behaving like an owner, not like a friend.

How do you know?  Hannelore could’ve asked and if he said no then she’d find another alternative, but Winslow might want to travel and this is a chance in a lifetime.

The difference is that getting a new job elsewhere is typically permanent, whereas going on a journey to "find yourself" or some such includes the likelihood of a return.

Cornelius:
Well,, there's one other example of a QC character leaving to find himself - and he did return, before he faded into the background.
