The only poll I could think of to put up would have been redundant (namely, moment of the year - which would have been rather obvious).

So the question is: do we have a week of filler or a continuation of the Mom's Here! storyline?

I thought it would be a week of filler, with Hanners answering readers questions. I want the next proper strip to be Hanners ringing Faye telling her that they're looking at Marten's baby photos, with Faye blurbing out to Dora that Veronica is in town. The abject terror on Dora's face would be priceless.

Oh, I already wrote the script for that one. I mean, the basic script writes itself. ;)  :psyduck:

Another classic one would be;

Panel 1 - Dora sends Faye out for her lunch break, leaving Dora alone in Coffee of Doom.

Panel 2a - Close up of a black heeled boot as a customer walks in.

Panel 2b - Dora hasn't seen who it is yet and is just chatting away about random crap.

Panel 3a - Dora turns around, still talking.

Panel 3b - Dora has suddenly become ashen and silent.

Panel 4a - A close up of Dora's eye and a brief silloute of a woman with a ponytail.

Panel 4b - Faye eating a burrito in that cafe and hears a familiar sounding scream of terror.

Ah, I see no-one has yet accounted for the very random "Mom forgot which one was Dora and which one was Faye" possibility. Not that it's likely that anyone could forget Faye....

I think she's clear on who's who

Edit:  Was it mom who planted the suggestion that Dora'd be a good (alternative) choice for him?  After The Talk (60 strips later), was it mom's voice echoing in his head, saying "this could work...", and pushing him past the early warning signs? 

Naaaaaahh...  mommy was just expressing something everyone was thinking at that point. 

Just not Marten.

He had noticed that she was attractive as early as strip 200, though of course that's not the same as an emotional draw.

I bet she would have probably bought a UPS or two at the same time as Cataclysm, "just in case". Or maybe play it on her netbook.

As for production of the comic, at the very worst I suspect we'll get a quick sketch drawn in the snow and captured on an iPhone.

That tweet would probably be more like

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA >:O >:O >:O"

And that rest of the cast thinks shes accidentally stabbed herself or something until she corrects them; cue a mass facepalm.


EDIT: Actually now that I think about it that would make a pretty funny strip: Maybe shes in the middle of the inevitable duel with Dale, and is about to deliver the killing blow, and then *TZZZZT!*

Angus would probably need a sedative to calm her down  :lol:

The problem with that is, even if you have power on your laptop/netbook, it's useless if your modem is powerless. And if you're using a cell modem, it's still useless if the nearest cell tower is powered out.

This is one of the reasons why I'm hesitant to go to Cable phone from TWC.

A couple of years ago, my daughter and son-in-law had an interesting experience with a power outage.  The outage was caused by a windstorm, so the outage was sort of random.  As  in they did not have power, but the people across the street from them did have power.  So they arranged to borrow wifi from people they knew across the street.  They charged up their notebooks at the respective places of employment (which also had power), came home, and surfed the Internet by candlelight.  All in all, a very strange way to use the Internet.

Instance #43465946c will involve a chainsaw, magnets, won tons and Cthulhu. It'll drive Yelling-Bird insane, Sweet-Tits will bleed from the eyes and Randy will get a nice, belated Christmas from Cthulhu, signed "To the Eternal, from lil' Ktulu".

I'm hoping he was just tired (as he woke up early just to draw Monday's comic) and decided to do a relatively easier filler comic, and goes back to his original thought of not delaying the Marten's Mom Visits 2.0 story arc a whole week.

If it's in addition to QC, that's fine, but I won't be reading that. For my part YB and ST are very much ok as filler characters, but I cannot see them carrying any story longer than a single arc. Then again, I'm no Jeph.

Whenever I see Randy I'm grateful for the fact that the 'next' button is so large these days. And the 'random' button is always there, too.

Skewbrow I just wanted to say I really like your icon. Without Faye to put it in context that is a really perplexing look on Angus' face lol.

@idug: Thanks! It was either that or Pintsize with a wide grin - guess which strip  :-D
akronnick also picked a very good Sven IMVHO.

BTW: Are Jeph's strips fair game as material for icons? Should I've called the dibs? Pay a royalty?

I've seen quite a few now (and made some myself (but this one came from the talented Sharp)) so I think its ok. If not I'll be sure to fix it. And yeah I agree I never get tired of seeing akronnick's icon  :-)

As for which Pintsize you used.....it's not from 1812 is it?  :-P

I'd been using the following for quite a while, before a few Bogart movie references got me to pull out the current one.  



Several people said she looked like a zombie in this comic, so I added a little trickle at the mouth... but it was before I knew how to share images, so I just made it my avatar.  For a very long time.  (Jeez, that was over a year ago now?  Year and a half?)

As for using things from the comic, no one minds, and I think Jeph would view it in a complimentary light.  

But I'm just guessing...

I admit I'm disappointed it's another yelling bird. It seems like there's only two or three jokes involved with this group of characters (YB/Randy/ST) and they are now officially overused.

Jeph, did you blatantly make a reference to Assault Girls in that filler or am I just reading WAAAAAAY too far into this strip?
