As if the actual story and humor weren't enough, you really have to love the amusing expressions Tom draws on tiny, non-detailed faces.

So does Parley need Smitty to teleport at will? That what I'm seeing here? And did they kiss in the moment they were gone? The hell's Smitty looking so gobsmacked for?

I think it's implied that, given what must be at the forefront of her mind right now, Parley teleported herself and Smitty to somewhere typically associated with hot make-out sessions. She's done it before. Parley ain't so embarrassed about it this time. She's growing up

I love the look on Kat's face in the third panel. As for Smitty's expression, I thought it was the surprise of being teleported suddenly.

Or did they teleport somewhere and then teleport back to the same steps a second later? I'm a little confused and possibly retarded.

That robot rumour is so silly. I honestly doubt someone like James would've slept with a fake-woman, for any particular reason.

I know about the weight thing, it's just kinda fun to look back and catch small details like that.

Something I noticed as I was re-reading some chapters for the hundreth time. Tom usually puts a comment, normally a funny one, under each page he does. But I noticed that during the Jeanne flashbacks (like the latest chapter, or the robot camera footage), he doesn't put any comment. It really makes those parts seem all the more serious now that I've noticed that.

The comments disappear for all the really serious parts - they weren't there during Annie's flashback to the hospital either.

Honestly I think we'll never guess what Jones is because she is something of toms own invention.

Someone on the GC forums had the idea that she might be Galatea (the statue carved by Pygmalion in Greek mythology which came to life), which has a certain amount of attraction. GC fans are prone to overanalysis because the story rewards careful examination. People can look at past events and see the seeds of current storylines very easily. That means that the current storylines likely contain the seeds of future ones. Unfortunately, that also means that it's easy to jump on every little detail because it /might/ turn out to be something important later. I think most of us have been guilty of that at one time or another.
