BONUS COMIC: Hey, You Asked

Romaine Spence

Hey, I joined and paid, why are the posts still locked?

Matthew Van Gangelen

And this is why I voted for Melon. Just saying.

Dave Cochran

No, I'm not surprised. It's like Brexit all over again.

Dean Reilly

It's been established that top hats and moustaches are evening stuff.

Captain Button

Needs more Randy.

BobC

The reason there are only 3 frames is not because that's all Marten is doing. No, the other frames were filled with velociraptors being eaten by Yelling Bird. Or vice-versa, I'm not sure.

Chloë Salzenberg

XP

Brian

I’m not sure if anyone is terribly surprised. I feel like people voted just because they like dumb stuff like this, and who can blame them? It made me laugh

MercuryBuddha

This is why I voted for Pintsize at the dildo factory. A much more interesting premise. XP

ysth

The job before, that he hated.

Brian

Brilliant!

Brian

That is a great way to look at this. Thank you for your refreshing perspective.

Brad Knowles

I don't think that came from the Library.

ysth

Who gave him the mug? Or did he steal it from the office where he had his shitty job?

Sarah Buisson

So it's this strip who have won the poll. I'm this close do build a fucking dictature.

MiaKitty

I half expected a few characters from other strips to make an appearance, heh.

Some Ed

Personally, I expected a little more on this option. Specifically, I expected it to be several rows of these frames copied and pasted in different orders. But, yeah, I thought that either of the other two options would be more interesting, and I had the least idea of what to expect with Melon, so voted for that. Plus, she could use a bit of a pick me up. She's clearly trying hard, unlike Pintsize who seems to be hardly trying. Admittedly, many of us are *glad* that Pintsize is hardly trying, given his aspirations.

Fool me once, etc etc

David Barr

:-D

Thisguy

Yeah, this is what I expected. That’s why I wanted Melon.

#1 Grampa, lol

Andrew Mitchell

Hey this is great. Now I feel like we get to see all the interesting & fun bits of Marten's life. We're NOT missing out!

Ruth Merriam

Can anyone blame him (Marten) for taking advantage of a momentary lull in the congenial chaos that is his usual day-to-day? Thanks, Jeph. This makes me profoundly happy. It's a visual koan.

Isabel

Give me the day off and that's where I'll be too!

Charles Wallace

LOL, I love it!

Grace Kieser

*I* asked for Pintsize, because this is exactly what I expected to see Marten doing!

Mark

I feel like I've been trolled!

Larry

I assume it's a garage-sale mug.

Cliff

It is difficult to describe how perfect this is.

Al Hunt

Is he in a special room for out-of-arch characters?

Evgeniy Semyonov

I'm 100% satisfied! Thanks Jeff!

Captain Button

Is that spidercoffee?

Bagge

No cereals. I'm genuinely surprised.

Yeah, me too. He is never going to be properly shiftless and no-account if he doesn't pick more guitar.

Joshua Brumley

Dang. I would've thought he'd pull out his axe and practice his basics, if not concieving new licks.

Geo (Overand)

Not pictured? What he’s looking at: a selfie Pintsize sent from The Dildo Factory™ with his new manager Melon! Yes, of *course* melon’s previous “covered with creepy crawlies” position is just below “management” at The Dildo Factory™. Why did you even have to ask?

Kyle Jenkins

You know... I was about 80% sure that that option said Pintsize instead of Marten when I voted for it...

Daryk Zirkle

I figured as much, which is why I voted for Melon...

Hugh Eckert

I wish I had more time to do just that. A lot more...

So, that's pretty much me at the office - once again, art imitates life!

Jason Hunter

Is that mug available in the QC Store?

Brian

Damnit jeph

Reyn Goldfur

Actually he's drinking English Breakfast tea. It's his dirty secret that he hides from his friends.

Alcaria Swain

I didn't vote for this, but I respect the vote

Danya Michael

Steve eats cereal, Martin drinks...I'm assuming coffee.

Chris Wicks

We did, in fact, ask.

Kyle Major

Just normal day stuff, did you expect top hats and mustaches

Patrick Liston

We all knew, that's why we picked it.

David Rivette

Best. Comic. Ever. JK. I kinda figured as much

A simple boy with simple needs. I'm so glad you filled the comic with ambitious queer folk who we can follow along side this kind boring boy <3

Heather Tennant

:)

Ami

You weren't curious?

Elf0004

Why was this an option if this is the answer?

Matrim Cauthon

Zzzz

...I Don't know what I expected. Well played, good sir!

Tannerbot

I'm a little surprised it won...

drone r0m-3

#1 Grandpa indeed.

Dick van Soest

Just the same as all of us
