Right?

Julie Scott

Goals, tbh

Joseph

This comic is alright I guess

Solomon Garland

Oh no. Oh, no. Guys... ai can live as long as you keep fixing them, right? Maybe longer? Bubbles might be around to meet skullmaster's most troublesome grandchild... and Faye won't...

Ursus Ridens

And elderly Skullmaster has a dowdy, old-lady's....hairdo?

Sparky

So enjoyable

Ack

They were. Bubbles doesn't use contractions.

Constantine Hannaher

With the different speech balloon shapes, the trio might be repeating the May-Faye-Bubbles sequence in imagining Skullmaster's future.

Barry Callahan

If you wanna buck the cliché.... Grobulax was a gnome.

Yonatan Zunger

I never noticed before how Skullmaster has prominent eyebrows.

This made me tear up... and I don't know why. Brilliant.

kupo

I don't know... Grobulax sounds like a draconian name to me, although having them be an elemental dragon might be what some consider kind of cliche'. Hmmm🤔

Laser ✨ Beams

This is one of the best strips I've ever seen in my life.

Stephen Wells

Ancient fire giant sorcerer whose skeleton became lava when a ritual went wrong, every bone is a powerful magic weapon but if the skeleton is ever reassembled a fire primordial is unleashed.

William Karr

So, I was thinking of doing the same thing. We need to come up with a history for the Obsidian Femur.

Stephen Wells

BRB just dropping most of this verbatim into a D&D campaign. Definitely seeing an obsidian femur in the party's future.

OldGoat

EXCELLENT! Add another prop for the aging Skullmaster. (And I'll buy a T-shirt, too!)

Robin Wyatt

Atashkada

I'm happy May looks so confident and self-assured now that she has her preferred body.

Andrew

What would Skullmaster study at college? Already being a master of skulls do they just give her tenure?

Wednesday

This may be one of my favourite strips in all of QC.

Jason Zions

Grandmaster of Skulls!

Mark

I must be a bit slow today, because it wasn't until I read your comment that I realised that 27 year old SM was being imagined by May, 39 year old SM was Faye's creation, and elderly SM was Bubbles' cherry (as it were) on top.

Dean Reilly

Skullmaster has lived a full life. Don't skullshame!

Alex Borders

This comic makes me think of some of my favorite 'Calvin (of Calvin and Hobbs) as an adult' fanfics. It makes me cry happy tears.

I died. I am dead. I join the skulls.

Cannot ♥️💀 this enough!

Onedavewreckingcrew

Add my name to the hopefuls for a "Skulls are alright, I guess" t-shirt pre-order

Onedavewreckingcrew

I DESPERATELY wanted to read that as "[...] and development of Jeph's (SKULLS)"

Genuinely laughed out loud at the "Skulls are All Right I Guess" T-shirt

Natalie Wagner

This is the best; it cannot be beat. I cannot wait for Jeph to prove me wrong, tho.

Hugh Eckert

SKULLMASTER, MASTER OF SKULLS IS NEVER OUTGROWN!

Minzoku Bokumetsu

Truly the pinnacle of QC, it can only end here to end on the highest note, anything further is but a mediocre offshoot [j/k but this is super awesome]

William Cole

Skullmaster P. Skullmaster, Esq.

Olivier Laroche

This is your best comic to date, everything that you did in QC was only to lead you to this, now begin Skullmaster Grove!

Shawn K. Younkin

Hats off to Jim - "Well done Skullmaster."

Sniff. I love this so much! Looking forward to future bone armor attainment.

Shawn K. Younkin

"Invincibler!"

Ralph

I love Granny Skullmaster, Master of Skulls!

Stephen Ray

What I love about this comic is the constant growth and development of Jeph's skills. As far as I am concerned, this is the high-water mark. I can't wait to see what he does that tops it in the future.

Bagge

With a kid like Sam, I wouldn't cry if she outgrows one of her weird interests. all that means is that she will pick up a NEW weird interest.

Nutjob

This is exactly how my friends and I run ideas into the ground

Sora

"Skulls are alright, I guess"

Yelling Bird

Is Skullmaster the author of the Bembo comics? In my headcannon, YES.

Tudza

I've got it easy. I'm just trying to figure out who gets my oldest pocket watch.

Tudza

Listening to the second book.

Joseph Bonnar

We NEED Skullmaster!

Matt Grayson

Happy sigh.... Magnificent! I wonder what happens to you when you get the whole set. "With this Malachite Olecranon of Grobulax, I am now invincible!"

Cogspace

This is the content I live for.

Emma Humphries

This all counts as lore for "Gideon the Ninth" fan fiction, yes?

The Shadow's Lair

Um can I get a skulls are alright I guess shirt lmao

Andrew Mitchell

😏

SpookyPenguin

GRANDMA SKULLMASTER GOT JOWLY AND I EXPECTED BETTER DENTAL CARE THAN THAT.

I did not expect to love this comic as much as I do

Populuxe

I love how May’s sense of humor perfectly aligns with Faye and Bubbles.

Magic Chopstick Games

This This is the thing that gets you a Netflix series Jeph

MikeT

The boyfriend looks suspiciously like a younger version of her dad

Populuxe

There aren’t enough grandmas passing down their cool stuff in reliquaries if you ask me.

DVW

Now I must have a "skulls are alright, I guess" t-shirt

Matt

Clapping for a comic and no one can see me...

quarridors

Just taking a moment to appreciate how far Bubbles has come to be so effortlessly whimsical compared to when we first met her. It's all so wholesome, I could burst!

Fay Roberts

I love everything about this.

DP23

This made me so happy

Bollthorn

Part of me kind of wants a 'Skulls Are All Right I Guess' T-shirt now xD

Simon Green

Skullmaster, 100 years dead, looking not a day over 47.

Aditya Rameshan

.... Can we get a spin off of just skullmaster going through life? I'd totally read it, lol

Populuxe

Of course Skullmaster, Master of Skulls would have a tattoo of Skullmaster, Master of Skulls.

Sean Kinlin

Looks like, in old age, Skullmaster is finally not so angry. Perhaps she's just bone tired.

Shawn K. Younkin

That is no mask... That is SKULLMASTER, MASTER OF SKULLS!!

I love how the skull mask aged with her.

Maurice Kessler

Keeper.

kevlarmenace

May we all have such a blessed life

BobC

For some reason, this episode got me thinking on how body 'upgrades' have affected both May and Roko. May and Roko each were helped by friends, but the fundamental difference is one's agency in the change: May desperately desired it, while Roko was forced into it and would rather not have needed to. After the upgrade, May was on fire, and Roko was burned. So to speak.

The entire history of the comic was just backstory for this moment

Nulgar

A skull mask: a great excuse for not having to make the effort of drawing older faces of a character in a flash-forward :P

Miyaa

We definitely need Skullmaster merchandise

Anthony Gaglianese

The most wholesome post about mastery of skulls on the internet.

This is one of my favorites ❤️

Michael Boettger

And Skullmaster seems like a good theme for a life. President Skullmaster. Reverend Skullmaster. Professor Skullmaster. Doctor Skullmaster. The artist currently known as Skullmaster.
