I am loving the multi-colored sharpies! I admit to a slight sharpie addiction. Those multi-packs of the fine and ultra fine sharpies are amazing (tip, get the larger sets for best color selection), and then there are the metallic sharpies (tip, get the multi-pack to get copper and bronze, not just the gold or silver usually offered)! No card/label making endeavor should be without them. You can even dissolve sharpie color into alcohol to make permanent color washes from the sharpie dye (such as to recolor a synthetic wig with). Don't forget color touch ups to cover bleach-stains or scuffs on shoe soles. Go team sharpie!
I like a lot here, particularly the perspective of looking up from a lower level. Getting a side view of Faye in the last panel looking over her shoulder is interesting.

I crush on Faye because she's a lot like my ex-wife. Only she was slightly less.... punchy.

Look at this ever growing stable of cute robots. Jeph, where does it end.

That's EXACTLY who they are

Should I be crushing on girl bots this hard? I'm crushing on some girl bots pretty hard. And Faye. But that's a thing for a while.

Why not both? A different optical sensor array for aesthetic reasons!

Well done to Sam for having apparently done research on a more permanent ouvre! Meanwhile, panel 3 confirms in my mind my theory that Swordsmary is probably actually a very middle-of-the-road person trying to create a sense of being edgy.

I'm not sure if Stabitha is wearing 80's sunglasses or has has a Geordi LaForge VISOR for eyes.

I really like the AIs attitude to sprays. ...now I want one, dangit.

The production of AIs is not 100% perfect. Some are created... flawed. While even the most flawed can find productive lives if they are stable, those that will rapidly lose stability and go insane are deactivated. Using lasers. Stabitha knows this, but doesn't know she knows. Leaving only the existential fear. (Wow. That went dark. I think I'll stop with the back-stories.)

Yes. Faye in the last panel is wonderful. And I love Bubbles nonchalant response. :)

It's a small thing, but I love the accuracy of Faye facing away in the last panel. It's a hard angle to get right.

It is like the clerics can't used edged weapons thing.

Swordsmary Stabitha McStaberson has a fear of lasers. It all makes sense now! Maybe they could build her a wooden body for that retro chic look. Then she can fear fire, water and woodworms as well!
Mike de Jong
RIGHT? It's a subtle but extremely good placement.

It's not Sam spouting the artistic twaddle... She's talking repeat business and expanding her market. I think she'll go far.

I love the composition with Bubbles off-camera to the bottom of the panel.
Love how this comic coincided with my most recent tattoo

I love Stabitha already
Bubbles is a primary character now. The singularity will continue.
Fear and terror, fear and terror.

MAN I love the growing secondary cast of AI characters

with that ability to spout artistic bullshit, Sam has a bright future as an artist

What is it with robots passing out, particularly when Faye and Bubbles are involved?
