Yesssssss. The little pantsssss.

Julienne Ignace

I am all over Bubs wearing those shorts!!!

The last bit seems a bit...... half-assed. <3

Jason Doege

Reminds me of R. Crumb <a href="https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/37333617_1589261727852842_8094212095215665152_o.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=d4018350014ee193041cc07edc091c5b&oe=5BD49B51" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/37333617_1589261727852842_8094212095215665152_o.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=d4018350014ee193041cc07edc091c5b&oe=5BD49B51</a>

When is the Bubble paper doll PDF coming out, Jeph?

Jeff Lowes

Interesting question... There wouldn't strictly be a need for it, but they've already adopted a number of habits from humans, whether it's to fit in or some other reason. So, I could see it going either way.

onitake

I hope there will also be an exclusive underwear shopping edition for Patreons. Please? On second thought, do AIs wear underwear?

Tim

Her normal burgundy color in a dress, of course.

Regarding the dress... I like that design, it's attractive. But I don't like the color, I think it's clashing with Bubbles skin a bit. I'd like to see that same dress in a different color. I'm not sure what would work better here, any suggestions?

Katy Kania

YES THANK YOU

Ted Van Roekel

I think panel 5 is deserving of a full Uncle George "Oh myyyyyyy".

Gary Walker

I want a Vitruvian Bubbles poster with Bubs in the Daisy Dukes and crop top. :)

AH! Bubbles looks so cute in the yellow dress! *hearteyes* The joys of being GNC and going shopping for clothes with a friend and/or lover for the first time. Super satisfying.

Hugh Eckert

As hot as outfit C is, I like outfit B...

awgiedawgie

Makes me think of when May was just an apparition in Dale's glasses, and she said the first thing she would do when she finally got a body was buy a pair of jeans.

Hugh Eckert

Agreed on all counts!

I've been reading Asimov's Bicentennial Man in which Andrew becomes the first free robot. His first act of freedom is to wear clothes. Imagine my delight when Jeph posted this comic!

Mark

I think Bubbles looks super-cute in outfit A, but I'm kinda old-fashioned.

Rebeca Oliveira

Bubs is rockin' those cullotes in a way I never will, and I'm here for it!

Czarzhan

I have been wanting to see Bubbles in a cute dress like the first one since she asked Faye to help her take off her armor! But the second option is awesome, too. (Needless to say, if option 3 becomes her go-to around-the-apartment-wear, there better be a LOT more apartment scenes!) :)

Reyn Goldfur

A for meeting Faye's mom, B for casual out-of-shop wear, C for in-shop. Sorted!

lilibat

Goth Bubs FTW

Churchill (formerly TeaBear)

My vote for Bubbles is a classic "little black dress"... Dear GAWD that would be Hot.

Virgel Dragalion

The pants of the second outfit ... maybe? Outfit 3 --> YESSSS! ♥

Creepy Cat Lady

Honestly Bubbles' fashion show looks better than pretty much any of my costume design sketches. Perhaps I should chuck illustration style and start drawing my croquis as comics!

Creepy Cat Lady

But Faye and Bubbles are lovers now. Lovers often have a special lust-pass, especially when speaking privately between themselves.

Creepy Cat Lady

As the parent of a six-foot tall daughter, I concur and I need to know where this thrift store is. Finding women's clothes for her is nigh impossible.

Kyle Major

to be honest the B looks the best to me

Is that a Poison outfit?

Olivia Irene

Anyone else hoping for a frame-for-frame remake of Claire's dress-shopping montage featuring Bubbles?

Matt Grayson

While I'm all for the voyeuristic side of Bubbles's posterior, I'd hate to see her get too self-conscious about it, or start to feel objectified. Faye stomped on May for expressing pretty much the exact same sentiment.

Matt Grayson

IS DROID 06 ONLY ONE WHO THINK SHE LOOK BETTER IN ARMOR? (I imagine DROID 06 as all armor - like a vastly more benevolent Ringwraith, or Alphonse from Full Metal Alchemist. I do hope we see more of him/her/ them)

I want the body-builder drag queens to decide that Bubbles is their perfect friend.

Jeph is playing dress-up with his dollie. I take it that there is a large body-builder drag queen community in this town, and that they were the original owners of these clothes. No way ordinary women's clothes would fit in the back and shoulders.

Douglas E. Smith

I am easily amused and am happy when there is a resurgence of Butts Disease. Plus Faye's lascivious 'Yessss,' is going to make me giggle all day...

MikeT

Ah, fashion montages...

Philippa

I'd been hoping for a fashion montage after yesterday's comic xD Bubbles looks lovely in a dress, and the shorts suit her too (could perhaps wear them with tights if she feels too self-conscious) ^_^

Dean Reilly

Faye is from the South, of course she prefers the Daisy Dukes.

David Paul

What does it say about me that I got that reference and sang it, even though, while I like some of David Bowie's songs, I didn't really care much for this particular one?

Bagge

It's a feature, not a bug.

Clifton Royston

BUBBLES, turn to the left, BUBBLES, turn to the right, ooh ooh fashion! We are the AIs and we’re coming to town, beep-beep!

Jenna

That dress :o

Stoodmuffin

MORE OUTFITS. M O A R

Stoodmuffin

This only makes me gayer and I have come back with the sole purpose to express this statement as such

Jeff Lowes

While she can certainly choose whatever she wants (although I'm fairly sure she wouldn't be comfortable in the cutoffs), I think she looks the best in the middle one.

Ben Russell-Gough

FWIW, the first outfit is definitely for meeting Faye's mother for the first time and possibly going to the family church in Savannah.

It looks to me like Bubbles is fun to draw. It was nice to see her without her armor and now this. Wonderful!

Ben Russell-Gough

Great. Now I'm going to be having Bubbles fantasies all day! Seriously, my favourite is panel 4. Learn from that what you will about me! However, panel 5 is definitely Faye's favourite and I suspect that ensemble will be retained for 'special occasions'!

Cleo Schmitz

Yeah, what's with the pockets on those Dukes? They look like they should be visible!

Andrew

They went looking for regular-ass clothes, but found amazing-ass clothes!

Krystal Kush

Love the outfit in the middle :)

Dylan T

Oh my goodness Bubbles in a dress and Bubbles in short shorts is 😍😍😍😍😍

Sean O'Neill

Bubbles in a sundress /swoon

Robert Ragona

At long last, my dream of seeing Bubbles in a dress has come true. :)

Stoodmuffin

Side note, she could get all or none of these. This is a first for her, right? Her style could be anything. That's so cool to see. I STILL struggle with fashion and all that jazz. Anxiety inducing as it can be, however, there's something really cool to being able to develop your style from scratch because you're THAT new. With my own coming out, this is something I can relate too and auuuugh it's so cute!

Stoodmuffin

I MAY BE STRUGGLING AT IT BUT I AM DRAWING YOUR CUTE SWOL ROBO, DAMN IT

Fart Captor

Faye is correct. Get all of them

A sheep

SHE GOT A DONK

Brad Knowles

I do like the fact that AIs can blush. Very cool.

I want to say this: Pockets. Seriously. Any person I've ever known who has dealt with woman's clothes has always made the comment "I need / miss / want pockets!" Pockets, Bubbles.

On my death certificate the cause will be listed as: Terminal Bubbles Cuteness.

蒲公英

As someone getting into athleisure myself... Stupid law of supply and demand on pricing...

That middle outfit is honestly so cute, like the sun dress is very pretty and the dukes are rawr! But the nice baggy summer pants with That cut top just make her look so carefree and fun loving, like she'd be right at home as an adventurous lass exploring the world for treasure with her rowdy first mate and lover at her side punching dudes.

Dustin

Yeah but she's not exactly the outwardly "feminine" type. The Rosie the Riveter or Diesel Punk kinda look would suit her well. Having said that it is super cute.

Bruce Steinberg

Squeeeeeeeee! Those two are so cute! Also, Bubbles is adorable in the A-line dress. 😃

Summer Sudbrink

Faye-sy Dukes.

BobC

"Post-scarcity" and "post-Singularity" seem to be synonymous in the QC-verse. But that won't matter to me: My polyester clothes will last for millennia!

Stoodmuffin

Expect lots of FASHION BUBBLES FAN ART AS SOON AS I CAN GET MY SHIT (at least more) TOGETHER, JEPH.

Stoodmuffin

If you would have come to me, years ago, as a young closeted human, and told me this would be one of my favorite strips across all time and space, I would've laughed in your face.

Stick with the A line Bubs. It fits you well.

I agree tbh XD

Am Queue

I'm weird. I like the harem pants best.

The Shadow's Lair

yes!

JD

yess, all of these outfits, yess!! also I need to see an animated montage of this strip

Grace Kieser

I approve, but Faye shouldn't have been trusted with so much power!

I am dead...and also jealous

Bubbles has Toe Bumpers

Kriss Pang

I would love to see how Bubbles reacts to fashion, giving an analysis of the practicality of each piece of clothing. And then fad trends would be a real hoot!

Kinda Squirrely

It all comes back to butts in the, er, end.

Morgan

Daaaaaaang

Smazzie

For robo-prom

z

First and third, and more of the same, please. Just because Bubbles' is a combat 'bot doesn't mean she can't be cute and pretty when she's off duty and in civies.

BUTTS!

Asher Rose Fox

I also appreciate Jeph's optimism, in that a tall, plus-size woman was able to find three entire outfits at a thrift store that actually fit her, and two of them even looked cute. The QCverse truly is a utopia!
