Fun home or dykes to watch out for by betchdell could be a good starting point

I swear to fucking Christ half the subs I'm on are just flooded with this disgusting, no effort, Earth killing crap. Now there are three on this sub just today. Ban it and anyone who posts it before it takes over.

I ship it, thats all

... am I imagining this, or are the last updates gearing up to ship Clinton and Yay?

And if so, was it ever resolved whether Yay and Roko got back together? Will they become a cyborg throuple, or is Roko shelved for now?

I think the sub as a whole mostly agrees that Claire just doesn't seem to care about Marten much at all.

The current "Zlata makeover" arc isn't helping. Some throwaway lines in the current arc imply that Claire hasn't been excited about anything for months (ouch for Marten). It also was implied that she can actually take time off for other activities on a whim (so she just doesn't bother to do that for Marten, even when he asks her to, so ouch again).

My actual question is this: How much of the "Claire doesn't give a shit about Marten" vibe do you think is intended by the author?

There were a few comics where some aspects of this conflict were addressed, but in my subjective opinion, it seems like Jeph never viewed the conflict as "Claire doesn't respect or make time for Marten".

It seems to me that Jeph was going for a conflict of "Claire works too much", and therefore the way she went to the party recently and the way she's going shopping with Zlata now, are intended to show that she has grown and is improving.

But, the solutions he's using for her workaholic issue just make her seem less interested in Marten because she's prioritizing social activities besides him. That's my opinion, at least...

Some of you seem better at understanding Jeph's intent on this stuff. Do you think that Jeph intends for Claire to seem like she's indifferent to her boyfriend? Is he purposely setting up for a conflict between them? Or is Jeph just not aware that he's writing the characters this way?

Jeph clearly isn't interested in the characters I love, and I am not interested in the ones he's writing about now. I've been reading since 2009 or so, but it isn't the comic I fell in love with.

I guess with a name like Questionable Content, it doesn't need to ever change its name to show it is a different comic, but to me it is. It should be called Robots and Gremlins or something.

I feel like this is going to become one of those things I check in on once or twice a year instead of reading every day. It's a shame. I have so few left now.

Pour one out for:

Ménage à 3
Looking for Group
Diesel Sweeties 
Shortpacked
Girls With Slingshots

What comics do you miss?

I've been reading QC for 20 years. I remember people talking about how the content was weird nonsense and the art was inconsistent slop back in 2022. And 2018. And 2015. And 2010.

Like, haven't we always been hate-reading it, at least a little bit? Hasn't it already been at the bottom of the hill for more than a few years? Is it just collective nostalgia that leads everyone to think the decline was recent?
