This is kind of the platonic ideal of a QC strip, IMO. Goofy new backstory revealed/explored, multiple characters being mean to Marten, and a very good Faye punchline at the end. It would be fun to do a re-draw of this one in my current style at some point if I remember and/or have the time.
Regular QC resumes tomorrow! Or TODAY, if you are a
Patreon subscriber! Happy New Year. May 2026 be less shitty for us all.
