Re the gamer girl in the "Questionable Content" web comic. Are those zits or freckles on her face?

I experienced that last summer. I eventually got to the point of being OK with sparing the life of the responsible party.

The [fanon/fanwank, not sure which] explanation inferred from various strips attributes her personality changes to changes in her medication/therapy mix.
I still like it when she goes all hard-ass on someone.
And yes, “Suck it, Shippers”, was brilliant. Jeph rose for me to towering heights of admiration on that line alone. Isn’t this what TVTropes calls “Word of God”?

I’m just a fan of the Daily Specials blackboard at the coffeeshop. Not enough of those. “Espresso with a battery in it”; “Latte and a punch in the mouth”.

I had to look up "shippers"

This.
I believe it’s mentioned somewhere in the strip, or maybe the notes…

I am SO not going to go back and read the notes.

BTW, I concur that it’s zits.

And blackheads.

Reasonably good explanation here, with examples from other dramatic series.

Q: What happened to Sara?

A: Eaten by an allosaurus. It was very sad. Actually she still works at the coffee shop, I just don’t draw her anymore because she was kind of boring.

Thank you for that.

So…this thread has gotten me to start reading the strip. I’m up to 300 or so. Roughly when does the girl gamer appear in it? The wiki article mentioned up thread doesn’t say.

Edit: hey! This guy wrote Indietits too! I’m not surprised, but it does make sense given the indie music refs in QC.

Marigold is a relatively new addition, so you have quite awhile. If you’re like me when I found the strip, about 3 days from now you’ll see her introduction (when you’ve finally read all of the strips 10 hours a day)

Marigold debuts in #1413.

Marigold debuts in #1413.

Thanks, it only took me an hour to read just the Marigold strips.
