Now, now, Dora, who if anyone Marten does or does not look at is no longer any concern of yours.
He could at least have the decency to refrain form ogling ladies right in front of you...
...also who else thought that was Marigold at first?
happy 8th birthday QC!! :laugh: :laugh:

I thought that as well - but she doesn't wear flannel like that.
Last time, Marten, this ended badly...Last time, he got a new best friend out of it, what are you talking about?
I'd forgotten how much fun that is when your ex is standing next to you. :laugh:
A little like Faye in the face, a little Raven in the curves and Tai in the height....nice.
Marten has a point. There's looking, and then there's looking. Big difference!
You know, that response of Dora's seemed just a wee bit jealous. I mean, a certain flat, aloof stare, but still a wee bit jealous.

Dora has nothing to be jealous about because
a) Marten won't approach a girl because he is forever an awkward boy who never grows up.
b) Dora could get Marten back at any moment. And she knows it.
c) The depressed, awkward boy with no money isn't going to get the single ladies to come to him.

Well, shite, I'd be depressed too if I realized those 3 points. Still, you know what? I say fair game. He's got no one, and if he doesn't have it in him to go up and say anything then ogle away. I'm not sure that practically breaking your neck to look is...cool, for lack of a better word, but he's free to do it. Could you imagine Dora's reaction, though, if he followed her out and got her number then came back in to talk all nonchalantly? Priceless.

I'm a little thrown off by Dora referring to Marten as "sweetie." Am I the only one?
But Dora's little shove could start the process, which might lead to more development over the next few months (comic time, years our time)
I just remembered a couple more characters for the list: Henry and Maurice (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1515).
I read her using it like you'd call a child sweetie. Doesn't really mean anything beyond the fact that his problems appear small, inconsequential, and easily bypassed from her viewpoint.
I like the new direction that Marty's taking his life.
Every journey,
Thousand steps
Starts with
Oh my god yes Marten PLEASE get a haircut! I'm sick of Marten's hair; I've been wanting him to get a cut for awhile now.
Seriously Jeph, if this is your way of testing the waters to see if people want Marty to cut his hair, YES DO IT.
Actually it'd be kinda neat if he asked Faye to do it. It's been quite awhile (http://questionablecontent.net./view.php?comic=203) since she cut a friend's hair (http://questionablecontent.net./view.php?comic=665).
<snip>
Marten is finally having a revelation about his life and it involves getting a cheeseburger. Sigh.

Exactly. Marten is pretty pathetic when you get right to it. However, everyone seems to think that Dora is the crazy, unstable one for finding a way out of their purposeless relationship.

Marten's contemplative look in panel 4 seemed to be centered on Dora's butt. :lol:
a big part of why Dora broke up with Marten in the first place: frustration at indie-boy's directionless passivity.
For me this is a callback to 564 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=564). Hopefully the "what do you want" from Dora will work better this time.
C'mon Marten, If you just want to be happy then go for it with full force!
a big part of why Dora broke up with Marten in the first place: frustration at indie-boy's directionless passivity.
Dora made it quite clear why she broke the relationship up, and that was not the reason.
Just because it was never voiced in a strip doesn't mean it's not a possibility. Dora being an ambitious business owner should be somewhat upset with her boyfriends total lack of direction and motivation to improve himself.

Should? That's for Dora to say, not us. The only time I remember it coming up between them she was amused by it, rather: 610 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=610); and he's not always passive, either: 697 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=697) is hardly turning her off him. Granted, those were a long time ago; but Jeph has not chosen to make Marten's aimlessness in life and work an issue between him and Dora, even though he has brought it into the comic a number of times.
That's not ambition, that's an uneasy feeling of directionlessness (is that a word?).
I thought it had been made clear in 1962 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1962) that his passivity was perhaps not the primary issue, but was feeding into her other issues.
I thought it had been made clear in 1962 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1962) that his passivity was perhaps not the primary issue, but was feeding into her other issues. Namely, in spite of being a small business owner (in her late 20's, yet!), she still had issues of self-worth, and, well, panel 3 in that comic: she's afraid that he's with her because it's convenient, rather than he really wants to be with her.So, if I'm reading you right, you mean that if Marten had been more assertive in general, Dora would have been less worried that he might be with her by default? I'm not sure I quite agree, but I must admit that it makes sense.
Just because it was never voiced in a strip doesn't mean it's not a possibility. Dora being an ambitious business owner should be somewhat upset with her boyfriends total lack of direction and motivation to improve himself. Not to mention their relationship was founded on Marten striking out with Faye. Are there any ladies reading this? Do you consider Marten a guy you'd love to date?
All I'm saying is that Marten isn't much of a catch in my opinion, and until he decides to do something, anything with his life, then any breakups he has are justified by the other party.
Depending on philosophies Marten has either achieved enlightenment, does not understand himself, or needs to be more ambitious.I think it's more that he's in the process of getting what he wants right now, so it's a bit of a moot point. Social isolation has not been treating him well. Returning to the CoD a pretty big step for him in attaining happiness. Right now he's probably just looking forward to hanging out with the gang again.
I've never had "meat burps" as Marten puts it. Meat farts, on the other hand, I have quite the experience with. If the two are related...
...also who else thought that was Marigold at first?Actually, I thought it was Faye and was confused as to why Jeph was drawing her so differently all of a sudden, while not making any changes to the way the other characters were drawn. I was also confused about the clothing, but that didn't figure into it until afterwards.
Are there any ladies reading this? Do you consider Marten a guy you'd love to date?I'm not a lady, just female, probably making my answer moot:
QuoteAre there any ladies reading this? Do you consider Marten a guy you'd love to date?I'm not a lady, just female, probably making my answer moot:
No, but his lack of ambition is not a reason. People who's main (or only) goal in life is to obsessively accomplish something, or always need to do something, anything, quite annoy me, so that part of Marten would be very relaxing.
Are there any ladies reading this? Do you consider Marten a guy you'd love to date?
I mean, that's fine if they do, but a goal is something positive like doing well at work or writing a song.Why? Of course you could also ask me "why not". And I don't know.
The punchline, IMNSHO, isn't because Marten really doesn't have goals in life. It's because that is how he deals with uncomfortable situations.
....
Face it, kids: Marten's MO in situations where he has to face "the real world" is either humor, snark or smart-assery.

That's actually the trait about Marten that I find most unlikeable. His sense of humor shows up at the most inopportune times. And can come across as insensitive. (Then again, I was frequently accused of that in my twenties, and it's said we dislike in others that which makes us see ourselves). Reading the strip, though, I've often thought Jeph wrote an awfully tolerant bunch of friends for Marten.
QuoteI mean, that's fine if they do, but a goal is something positive like doing well at work or writing a song.Why? Of course you could also ask me "why not". And I don't know.
It's indeed true that I don't mind people simply having goals and ambitions, like I don't mind people painting their walls pink. That's something I consider everyone's own business. I do mind people who try to paint my walls pink and think of me as weird when I find pink annoying and won't let them.
And I do find pink annoying, so I am not highly comfortable in a pink room, as I won't be in company of people whose whole life revolves about goals and ambitions which tends to be obvious in anything they think, say and do.
And as far as my experience goes, people are never satisfied with only painting their own walls.
So Marten would be quite pleasant company for me when it comes to that. But that's about it, there are way too many other things he'd need to have or to not have to be interesting to date. Actually I think we don't even know much about Marten.
This is all he does and he's not very happy with his life.Still not convinced that the first part is the reason for the second. But also not denying that it could be, thinking of some of his comments way back.
1983 - the year I turned 21
Anyway, I think Marten's comment about cheeseburgers and haircuts was just a joke. I doubt that that was his true ambition in life--he just has a sense of humor about his future, which is a good thing in my book.
Am I the only one not creeped out? By acknowledging she's building something creepy...that in turn makes it not that creepy. It's just weird, and in the art world a lot of things are weird.
The only problem with this plan is her execution; she needs to be sweeping hair up, not individually collecting it.
AmI the only one not creeped out? [...]I'm not creeped out either, the whole idea is just weird to me.
For never mind the human hair - why would I want to crawl for 800 meters anyway ?
so creepy. cant stop shivering.Yes, super-creepy human-hair-tube lady makes Hanners' covert blood sampling seem quite wholesome.
Marten could have done that when Dora asked to move in together-- but he chose Faye. I would not have handled that as well as Dora did. (I know I have my issues. Haha.) I know someone could argue that he just didn't want to move, or that he was just being a good friend...etc. However, I felt it was the completely wrong way to go about things. If he did not want to leave that apartment or was not ready to move in with Dora, he should have just said as much
I wasn't creeped out, but I have no hair...She didn't actually SAY that it was all going to be head hair. Creeped out yet?
At least it wasn't Sweeney Todd......
Then he'll have sex with Cosette.
AmI the only one not creeped out?
I wasn't creeped out, but I have no hair...She didn't actually SAY that it was all going to be head hair. Creeped out yet?
I agree that Marten's passivity played a large part in Dora's breaking up with him. Honestly, most people have more than one reason for making a life changing decision. Her own insecurities were one-- but a lot of it was that Marten never did anything to REALLY show her that he wanted to be with her because he WANTED her, not just because she was there. Marten could have done that when Dora asked to move in together-- but he chose Faye. I would not have handled that as well as Dora did. (I know I have my issues. Haha.) I know someone could argue that he just didn't want to move, or that he was just being a good friend...etc. However, I felt it was the completely wrong way to go about things.
If he did not want to leave that apartment or was not ready to move in with Dora, he should have just said as much-- there was no reason to bring Faye into it at all. Dora was ready to take their relationship to the next level-- moving in and focusing on the development of the relationship as adults. Marten did not seem to be on the same page as her. This is a breaking point for many relationships. When one person is ready to progress as a couple and the other is not, it is very hard to stay in that relationship. At some point, you have to realize that the relationship is not going anywhere, and it would be best to end it.
I think Marten really liked her, but was he seriously considering a future with her? Dora is ready to settle down. Yes, she has issues to work through, but I think that would have been easier to do with someone who seemed to want the same thing out of the relationship. Knowing you want something more, but not being sure if your partner feels the same... Added to the fact that Dora is insecure to begin with. It is not a good combination.
I didn't find it creepy either...but then again, I LOVE LOVE LOVE installation art (the more bizarre, the better imho)
However, she should have probably asked her clients before stealing their hair...considering that some people could get really uncomfortable being a piece of art without consenting.....
I think Marten's passivity was part of what drew Dora to him in the first place -- since, as we found out later, Dora had dated "alpha goths", she may have wanted someone less . . . pushy.
OK, my wife used to do hair - had to stop for several reasons, one of which was what she called the "emotional vampires" - the people who came and did nothing but talk about their personal problems every two weeks like clockwork. Left her feeling drained and miserable half the time. It was like they sought her out, because she's such a good listener.
I think Marten's passivity was part of what drew Dora to him in the first place -- since, as we found out later, Dora had dated "alpha goths", she may have wanted someone less . . . pushy.
. . . I think he just didn't want to change. He liked his life, how it was and where it was. Which of course does mean that he wasn't ready to move on to the next phase with Dora. Granted, Dora may have jumped the gun a bit on wanting to move in as well -- sort of a "this is where we're supposed to be at this point in our relationship" combined with some optimism and impulsiveness...
Plenty of caption contest possibilities in this visit to the hair palace. Please please Panel 3 or even 4?
Actually, he said as much about liking his present apartment, and it having more space, as he said about not wanting it to be hard for Faye:
1577 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1577): "But I like this apartment!"
1578 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1578): "It's not that I don't want to move IN with you, it's just that this place has more room than yours"
1579 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1579): "I just really like this apartment!"
and in each case he said that before referring to Faye. I suspect that in 1581 he could have been about to agree to move in with Dora, when she pre-empted him by agreeing the opposite. It may have been a bad decision for them both, though.

4. As much as I would be darkly amused to see things churn and toss as the drama-"ship" attempts to sail the forum seas, I also am fairly certain that Marten is going to ask about either reassembling the Deathm0le band or something related to the indie music he has consistently shown he loves.
Oh my! Is like the Enigma of Amigara fault, except with hair XDOk, now it's creepy!
Oooh! A Secret Epiphany!
I wonder if it'll be friendly?
If this hairdresser is related to Clinton (they kinda look like they could be), that would explain a bit.
Well, Jeph thought this worth retweeting, and I laughed when I saw it:

If we are going The Blues Brothers route, I vote Faye to be the Aretha Franklin role. Or at least be the one singing her songs.
I think the door is and always will be open for Hanners to be the one who snaps and kills 'em all. And 8 think Jeth will always give us reminders the door is open. And Hanners will remain the helpful, happy voyager of self discovery and self improvement right up to the minute she goes through that door. If she ever does.

I'm actually really mad that it wasn't something romantic. Dammit. What the hell. That band went nowhere before, why would it go anywhere now?
Hanners won't realize how safe she feels around Marten and Marten won't realize how much he cares for Hanelore until after they've been touring and propping each other up emotionally for about two years.
So, 2028 or so?
What is up with those loops in panel 4 on Amir's arm? It looks like the tuning keys on the head of a bass, but if so -- that's an odd artistic choice. It makes it look like tabs are growing out of Amir's arm.

Yes... as pointed out already, Amir last appeared in #1187; Raven appeared in #1306 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1306), plus the cut-away to her studying physics in #1510 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1510); Pizza Girl hadn't appeared since #399 (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=399).
Yes (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1187), he was (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1178) always shorter (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=885) than Marten. (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=843)
Omg Amir!! 8D

It's not squatting if you're paying rent...
Hopefully he'll get some more screen time in this arc and we can learn more about him.
Looks like the band's about to record something and try to start marketing themselves out there! At least we can hope that they'll either get a number of public gigs or they'll have a runaway selling album, or both! Go, Deathmøle, go!
Peanuts could really do with a massive new plot direction. I really feel that Schulz has covered all the storylines that are possible with the current set-up and that the comic has been drifting for a while now. Charlie Brown et al. becoming Gods of Rock and dealing with superstardom would be an interesting way to go.
Also... to complete the band, I vote for Schoder on the synth and Lucy as the lead singer.

It's just that it merges with the hair falling down behind; Jeph commented in a tweet that he wasn't going to do anything about it.He shouldn't, I wasn't pointing that out as "ERROR", I just thought it was amusing. And your explanation works, especially where what I thought was part of his goatee was the same color as his (slightly lighter) head hair, so instead of sometimes having a crazy awesome metal goatee, he just has that tuft on his chin and long hair.
As for the story being a bit directionless when your main protagonist is goal-less it is kind of inevitable.
My point is that we have almost 2000 strips of Marten ordering coffee at CoD
