Man, commentary month is giving me so much aesthetic whiplash.
Jeph says he's still not entirely satisfied with his art style, but he should be proud of how far he's come.

One of the downsides of Pintsize having a humanoid body now is we no longer get "taking Pintsize apart" gags

Will didn't disappear entirely. He still works at the Horrible Revelation. Would like to see more of Penelope though. And Cosette: now that she's not dating Steve anymore, she has to figure out what's next, and that could be interesting.

And here's where he said he'd run out of ideas for Brun. Entirely fair, but I feel like I'd only just gotten used to having her around.
Anyway, now that I've got all the info in my head at once, I'm ready to agree that Emily is the most likely familiar weirdo to return as Claire's new researcher.
I hope he doesn't just come up with a new person. I like continuity.

Yeah, pretty much any QC character can be either the Straight Man or the Banana depending on context. Roko is very often the Straight Man for Yay or Melon's antics, but follow her to the bakery...

Okay, I was right, Sven used to look more distinct from Angus and Will and Steve. Not sure if it's the haircut, or Jeph's art style developing in a way that makes male characters less distinct and everyone else more distinct.

Back to our regularly scheduled story.
I guess the wedding gets its own time island, because we've jumped forward to Marten's cafe in Cubetown being open for business, sort of.
Notice it's named Mood, which is Doom backward.

It's not the research itself that's nonsense, it's the subject matter.

Anyone who tries to blackmail Marten with kink stuff will be treated to a series of anecdotes from his childhood, which slowly and inexorably add up to an understanding of what his mother does for a living
and if they push it they'll get the story about Marten meeting Dora's father

#QuestionableContentReadalong
Jeff Miller (orange hatband)@WizardOfDocs At least knitting and crochet have crossover interest with topology and non-Euclidean geometry.
Pottery seems to me more likely to head in the direction of conceptual art, like the Terrible Teapot used on the cover of "The Psychology of Everyday Things"
