New comic up!
I'm not entirely sure what to say here. On the one hand, this is vintage QC in many ways with a funny dialogue over a deceptively simple scene.
However, I also find myself wanting to talk about what this says about Claire. We've known since the time she insisted that Jim and Veronica would make a cute couple that she's an incurable romantic at heart. However, we've also known for a while that she really, really wants to help people be happy (and is often obnoxiously assertive and/or manipulative about doing so). Yet there is no malice about her; she's motivated entirely by the view that she needs to push people in the right direction because they can't see it themselves for various reasons. It's a conceit, yes, but it's a nice conceit. All she needs (as we've seen in this arc so far) is someone to be there to tell her when to back off.
There really is quite a lot of depth to the character and I think Jeph deserves a thumbs-up for the amount of work he's made to still make her funny and likeable (at least she is to me)!
In the end, though, right now, I can't help but wonder if Clinton is imagining little Chibi Claire inside his sister's head, bouncing off of the walls and ceiling whilst going "SQUUUEEEEEE!!!" Indeed, I could see Jeph develop a whole new strip by having the 'inner' versions of his characters monologue about what they want/like!
