grat, now i am designing one in my head

Hajnal Endot

may's arc is genuinely one of the most interesting in the entire series, and that's saying a lot given the number of interesting arcs.

SilverbackRon

That actually does sound pretty chill

doorbender

May, is um, definitely ah hem hehehehe A-10

Darnel D Cooper

Thank you, I guess I misread that part. Thank you.

David Durant

That's exactly when she was angry with May two strips ago

Actually, if you have the cash, (Or, presumably the credit) there is nothing preventing you (In the US) from buying a fighter jet. The weapons attached are a different story in most cases.

Fuzzy Logik

I'd want to be a solar powered blimp, can you imagine just chilling up in the sky?

Nikki

If you have enough cash and know the right places to look, you can buy anything. If the question is "Could she legally purchase a fighter jet to use as a body?" the answer is most likely no. Aside from this issue, what kind of work would she be able to do in order to pay for fuel and repairs?

David Howe

as a party trick? :)

Jere

so cool

i keep forgetting she stole money with intentions of being a fighter jet. my brain always changes it so she stole/illegally aquired a fighter jet. so now here's the question, if you have enough cash can you just buy fighter jets as an ai?

Peter Jensen

She did not have one, presumably she was working as an AI in a bank system. She was a niche case, which was why she had to settle for the crappy body assigned to her: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4173

Ben Russell-Gough

From what May said to Dale, the chassis she was looking for was a self-piloting version of the Chengdu J-20 (with a made-up name, courtesy of Jeph). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chengdu_J-20

WE MUST HAVE ART OF MAYF35

Darnel D Cooper

Now I wonder what May looked like before Robot Jail. Where is her original body? Who's wearing it now? .... Only because Mays wants are all about "bigger, faster, stronger" and she was willing to steal to get it. After Robot Jail, and folk treating her as viable she still has wants,... but has grown a conscience, and now needs some self-esteem building. (Sorry for the ramble.)

Bagge

It might turn out that Sam is the one who is bad influence on May, not the other way around.

Erin Hartshorn

May uses the past tense because she’s talking about an event in the past. Perfectly legit. However, she does not say that she still wants that. Bubbles and Faye need to give her some credit here.

dragonkittyrawr

I love May's face as she says "I... wanted to be a fighter jet"

William Cole

Remember when Faye was the cool, dubious role model for Sam?

Andrew Mitchell

Great point!

Andrew Mitchell

🤣🤣🤣

Andrew Mitchell

That IS a fun fact. Thanks for sharing it. :)

y'know... like a good role model.

Absynthe

Bubs is exactly the mother that May needs. Steady, supportive, and fully capable of disassembling her.

Lightsabr2

Of the individuals in this strip who most recently worked in illicit enterprise?

Nicolas Demers

Yeah, and don't glare at May, she's already expressed regret numerous times. Glare at the kid who said "That's so cool!"

Syko2K

Why have a bomb rack when you can have a bomb rack?

SpazzyC

Cool like the wind blowing through your turbines.

BobC

May would still give up boobs for afterburners...

Isaac Rivers

Was about to say this too. With one look they say that you can and should tell the truth, but also realize that you are being perceived as a role model, so act accordingly.
