BenRG:
I'm on the record as being a defender of Faye. She can be spiky and aggressive but this is mostly a kind of defensiveness and an inability on her own part to get a handle on her own emotional problems. It's outweighed by her reliable friendship and the interesting story-telling her character allows. However, panel 4 really makes me, as someone who was bullied badly at school, very uncomfortable. She's essentially saying: "I don't like you but, because I know that I can frighten you for my amusement, I'll spend time hanging around you!" It's basically the most malicious position Faye has ever held and it isn't funny to me.


--- Quote from: Gnabberwocky on 09 Feb 2021, 21:48 ---All my attention is drawn my the fact that Faye is telepathically controlling the arm she's holding to point at Willow. I know it's just a small easter egg, but she is remotely making a mechanical object move without manipulating it. I can't focus on anything else.

I'm thinking that there is a 'dinosaur ganglion cluster'-equivalent subprocessor in the arm that means the limb, when not attached to an AI drive, literally has a mind of its own and, for some reason, wants to tell Faye that it agrees with her in her reaction to Willow.

You know, if Jeph had created that kind of world, he could use that as a lead in to Faye deciding that the arm would be a good match for her in personalty terms and has plenty of useful functions so she has it as a replacement for her left forearm.

 Noticed that too, huh? Yeah, Willow certainly has a very similar build to Faye...

You know, I've always suspected Faye of having abnormally strong back muscles to support her, um, superstructure - she certainly never seems to complain of backache :-D

sitnspin:
Tattoos are not prints. Prints are mass produced copies of an art piece. Each tattoo is an original piece. Even if it is flash art that has been done dozens of times, each time the tattoo is given, it is recreated by hand with individual variation, even if only slight.

WAYF:
So if I remember correctly, the next step to any character's Initiation Into Main Cast is to invite them to the Horrible Revelation to get drunk. That will have to happen tomorrow in comic time... UNLESS Clinton forgets that he just made plans for a dinner date with Elliott tonight.  :psyduck:
Maybe they could squeeze both in, depending on how early dinner finishes. Elliott did say he had a shift at the HR afterwards. But then this single day of comic time would go on for well over 100 strips. Has that ever happened before?

Meander:
Just wondering - what ever happened to those guns Faye was sporting for a while? When she was working at the underground fighting outfit, she had gotten kind of ripped.
