David Paul

At least then it would only have had 999 votes to catch up with, instead of that cold, crushing thousand...

Daryl Sawyer

Aww man, I missed the poll. Would have totally voted "Melon Jumps The Shark".

Marc Pengryffyn

I like the way you think!

Jan Szejko

Officer Basilisk jumps the sharks on a date with Melon. Hanners is also there, confronting her fear… of sharks?

William Hanna

Is 2018 the year of Roko bonus strips? The king is dead, long live the king?

Fart Captor

Shark jumping could TOTALLY be a date activity, imo

Kaz Redclaw

Officer Basilisk going on a date with Hannelore, during which she confronts her fear of The Shark by sitting on Melon's shoulders while she jumps it?

Brad Knowles

It would be cruel if Officer Basilisk were to finally express feelings of love, only to find out that Bubbles only has eyes for ... someone else. Cruel, I tell ya! ;)

K. D. Bryan

I mean, Melon is great, Hanners is great, but poor Officer Basilisk deserves a brief, fleeting moment of joy.

Gabrielle Fusco

will 'Hannelore confronting her fears' just be her confronting a tapir?

Airyu

Wow, I did not expect this boat to go in the direction it's going. :(

William Burns

Basilisk cartoon can't be beat.

mooviies

look in the background, she's doing her thing with the shark.

KCkittysnores

😍

Dustin

But where's Melon? O_o and what about the shark?

BobC

Well, she didn't have a pretty bow on her story arc, meaning it's NOY (Not Over Yet). "While on a date with Gordon, and after hearing Gordon's story, she arrested him for assault."

BobC

Roomba.

JD

I think a lot of people voted for it just to surprise you.

For once I'll be serious. I would have (gladly) voted for Hannelore, but I honestly want all your fans (patreon or not) to have a chance to enjoy her stories. That's because I believe she's become a major part of the strip, and is important to a LOT of us.

hannelore confronts her fears about going on a date with Roko

Who knew she was that popular? Now we gotta find a shipmate for her... (I'm pushing Pintsize myself, but Gordon is a real possibility as well.)

Jeph Jacques

I mean that's fine, it'll be a fun comic to draw but I am SHOCKED

Jeph Jacques

I CANNOT BELIEVE ROKO IS WINNING??!?!?!!?!?!?

Auros Harman

Yeah, I was torn between Hannelore and Basilisk, did not even consider Melon. She's fun, but the idea of Hannelore confronting her fears (what could that mean?!) is way more interesting, and then Basilisk we just haven't seen for a long time...

Daryk Zirkle

I'm with David Paul on this one... still 100% sure Jeph? :)

Marc Pengryffyn

If the choice had been Melon jumping "a" shark, I'd have voted for that, but jumping "the" shark just seems a bit stale, so I went with Officer Racoon-Chaser. That said, my preferred option *would* be a mash-up of all three!

Travis Walls

As someone with pretty bad OCD, I appreciate seeing how Hannelore deals with daily challenges.

David Paul

Actually, I changed my vote to just #3. Hanners' story deserves better than a bonus strip.

David Paul

I had to pick #1 and #3. Hanners left on such a sad note, it would be nice to see how she is doing on her journey. And Officer Basilisk, she deserves a little love, or at least some Assam tea XD.

Maurice Kessler

I want to see #3 now, and #1 in three weeks.

Come on, Hannelore people!

Stoodmuffin

All of them in one

Cerril

Wow, this is the hardest one yet. I want all of these. Keep them for future polls!

While I agree, I would want that in a regular arc, NOT as a Patreon only special.

Kinda Squirrely

Why must you make my life so difficult!

Lucanid Landman

As much as I love Melon, in the end I went with Basilisk. It's good to get some variety now and then.

Oooh or "ButtzFeed" but that sounds...nevermind.

Basilisk date with Punchbot, facilitated by the QC-canon dating app "ButtzFindr"

Clifton Royston

I was going to vote for Hannelore, but then I saw the comments, and I agree that wouldn't be fair to the non-Patreon followers.

Peter Jensen

All good choices, and really hard to pick this time. It's been a while since we've seen Roko, though, so going for that one. Maybe she'll finally catch a break?

Gary Walker

Hannelore vs public sanitary facilities

allanfranta

Hannelore goes on a date with Office Basilisk which is interrupted by Melon jumping a shark!

David Days

I agree. The alternatives have always been good, but Melon et. al. is such a hoot. But I had just been wondering what Officer Basilisk would be up to now.

Amy Watson

I'm sure Jeph has plans for Hannelore's next arc, but personally I'd love to see Hannelore in all sorts of crazy out-of-context situations while she's traveling!

Lalo Martins

Why so sure? I also expected it to be an autoclick before seeing the options given how much “bonus comic” has been pretty much turning into “adventures of Melon” but boy, the alternatives are pretty awesome this time

Joshua Brumley

It would be interesting to see the good officer in a social setting. All we know about her is that she knits when at home.

Shawn K. Younkin

Pintsize....of course!!

Leak

Ewww... not after what happened with the pidgeon... :x

Ami

yeah watch the comic actually be a combo of all three ideas. I'm wise to your ways

Erin Moriarty

Joining everyone who would love to see Hannelore's journey but doesn't think it fair to non-Patrons. It makes me happy to see how many of your fans are this selfless.

Scribblers

Basilisk on a blind double date with Hanners, Melon, and the shark.

Whom is Basilisk going to date? That's what I'm dying to know!

Roko and Pintsize sitting in a tree... K I S S I N G! (I'll go away now.)

Officer Basilisk!

William Hanna

When I saw the notification, I was like, “Why is he bothering? MELON. DUH!” But these are good choices!

Gary Walker

Hannelore confronts her fear of dating with Officer Basilisk when they visit Melon and Arthur's pop up restaurant (try the soup).

Mister Cletus

Can... can we have all three? Like, not right now, but Basilisk on a date, on Valentine's day would be awesome.

Al Hunt

It's not going my way, but I know I'm going to enjoy the result regardless.

All fine options.

quarridors

If I could vote twice for Basilisk, I would!

Will Weaver

Shippers are clearly a force to be reckoned with.

Jeph Jacques

I can't believe Basilisk is winning right now

Monthly comic is for secondary plot ! Officer basilisk

MAR

I'd much rather see Hanners finally able to touch someone. She deserves some companionship

JPMK! {verb}

psssst, you can vote for both :P

Rich Holmes

I don't care what the question is, the answer is "Roko"

W. Scott Meeks

You don't have to...it's multiple choice....

HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO CHOOSE ONLY ONE OF THESE???

Ian Wolfe

Jeph, you evil bastard, why are you forcing use to make the impossible choice between options 1 and 3?! Do you really hate us that much? *weeps*

ysth

Three awesome choices

Kyle Major

DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE DATE Ahem thats just my opinion

Travis Wedding

Okay, okay, i've got it. Officer Basilisk is on a date, Hanners is actually trying a real *date* with a fireman at the next table over. It's a cute little restaurant by the sea and the beach. in the background you can see melon preparing to, and then succeeding in blasting her butt off her chassis over a shark ala happy days, except she's standing on the edge of the ramp and not riding a motorcycledroid

Mooster

I originally voted for Hannelore because I absolutely want to know what happened and see that storyline continue. Then I was reading other people's comments, and realized I was just thinking selfishly. Nick, as above, hit the nail on the head--Hannelore's journey should NOT be Patreon-only content. I'm such a selfish bastard...

Officer Basilisk goes on a double date with Hanners, Melon and her friend to confront Hannelore's fear of shark jumping.

David Pablo Cohn

Poor shark...

Isn't it bad form to jeep the hannelore comic as patron only?

Boots McGoot

brb singing Officer Basilisk to the tune of Nellie the Elephant

Abhayakara

Given the way polling is currently running, it seems clear that Officer Basilisk needs to go on a date with Hannelore to help her confront her fears.

Travis Wedding

OMG THEY'RE ALL SUCH GOOD CHOICES

Nikki

As curious as I am about Hanners’s journey of self discovery, I feel that it would be bad form to keep that (even if only a humorous glimpse) as a Patreon only comic. With that said, how is Melon jumping the shark not winning?
