Least it's answered the question of whether Harley is female or another guy in drag.

And you know the Harley, Nightwing and Matt coupling does work, he gets to top someone and be bottomed at the same time as well, even if it's by pegging.

That's inexact. We do know one thing Harley likes to do, but perspective prevents us from knowing how or what with (s)he does it, which in turn casts at least scientific incertainty on the natural or artificial origin what we see from her/him.

[MerchManDan]

Well, at least now we have somewhat-definitive proof that Harley is indeed a woman...who appears to be screwing Matt from behind. Um. Maybe she's using the strap-on that Sandra used on him.
EDIT!!! Yup, somebody beat me to it. Ah well.
Not the happiest ending ever, but I'll take it.

Find another place, or face the fire hose.

Sorry for deviating from topic, but that line made me think of this scene:
"OK, you ready?!!"
"YEEEEAH!!!"
"Open wide!!" *BOOOOOOOM!!!*

panel two just brings my brain to an inarticulate screeching halt. i mean, wut? seriously? it's one thing to have dillon sneaking into gary's bed at night, but now they are actually going to bed together? seriously, wuthefuk? i just cannot wrap my head around the logic of this. is it that yuki's screaming has rendered him so distracted that he just didn't react to dillon's arrival? or is he traumatized from the play? or could yuki not wait until they got to zii's room and they only moved once it burst into flames from the friction of her furious humping and now dillon has nowhere else to sleep? someone help me here.

We can't see the organs, but we CAN see breasts.

Which leaves us with three options - he's a FtM transsexual, but hasn't gotten top surgery, yet; she's biologically and psychologically female; she's a MtF transsexual who's had top surgery, or is well into hormone treatments.

The most likely of the three is she's cisgendered Female. If not, MtF is more likely than FtM, both statistically and in terms of how she presents.

So, yes, we can say that she's female, with only a very small margin of doubt.

[TakerFoxx]

Or she's wearing a strap-on.

And having, ahem, loud roommates is extremely annoying, especially when you're trying to get some sleep. Especially when said roommate happens to be your younger sister...

No, I'm not still holding a grudge, why do you ask?

[Kamino Neko]

*Ahem*

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew.

That is all.

[Mint-Pie]

i just cannot wrap my head around the logic of this. is it that yuki's screaming has rendered him so distracted that he just didn't react to dillon's arrival?

Exactly. He absentmindedly said goodnight to dillon, probably 10 seconds later going "hey, wait a minute!!". Comicaly delayed response joke. Always a classic.


And way to go Zii for helping gary get laid. I can see you're trying real hard.

[Don Alexander]

Hoh boy oh boy...

I'm really too lazy to look it up now,but I'm pretty sure I called Matt being in Nightwing (though probably concerning the last panel).

Also, may I point out this is the second instance where we see Zii giving and not receiving?

Anyway, really looking forward to the last strip now - which I will not be able to read until Suuuuunday!!!!

[Bear]

Well thats one way to almost end the strip... And yes Matt... yes you are a bastard. *nods sagely*

Roll on saturdays strip!

[chelonianmobile]

I've had to hear a roomies' noise before and it really sucks. I couldn't hear any shouting, but the heads of our beds were against the same wall and there was an irritatingly arrhythmic thumping noise right next to my ear all night, or at least until I had the sense to move my bed. That was bad enough, I think I'd have gone in and yelled at them if I'd heard shouting. Or played some of my choice in music, even if it would wake up the flatmate on the other side. I think the Decemberists' "Culling of the Fold" would kill the mood nicely. Thank God I'm moving into a solo flat soon ...

Harley Quinn looks a lot like the pigtailed girl in Zii's Truth or Dare video: http://www.menagea3.net/d/20091128.html

Wow.

After this one, I can't imagine what's left in the last strip of this arc.

I'm sure it will be good!

[albert.aribaud]

After this one, I can't imagine what's left in the last strip of this arc.

Wait until Gary wakes up.

[Makkabee]

Bastard indeed. Amazingly unrepentant bastard.

I'm not entirely sure about that. I sense a certain melancholy about him, an unhappiness with himself that's preventing him from fully enjoying being the meat in a thespian sandwich. I don't expect immediate reform, but I think this is eating at him.

That's reaching . I'm reminded of the old joke: An engineer, a physicist and a mathematician are riding a train through Scotland when the engineer sees a black sheep. "Aha! Sheep in Scotland are black!" he exclaims. "Well, some sheep in Scotland are black," the physicist says. The mathematician turns to both of them: "We only know that there exists, in this part of Scotland, at least one sheep, that is black on at least one side."

We can't see the organs, but we CAN see breasts.

So, yes, we can say that she's female, with only a very small margin of doubt.

No. the Likelyhood that she is a FtM is precisesly zero, given that she never insists on male pronouns, dresses like a woman, has long hair and doesn't bind her breasts. And what kind of FtM wants to be cast as a highly feminine character like Harley in plays? Aren't they usually pretty insecure about such matters?

We might not be able to see the strap on, but the likelihood that it's actually a penis is so small as to be nonexistent given that we have never had any indication that she is anything other then a biological female? If she's got a dick, where, precisely, is the bulge? The Adam's apple? What about her small hands and large hips? How the fuck did this rumor get started in the first place? I know that it wasn't you who started it, but it's starting to get annoying that fanon has been practically screaming that she is a man this whole time when the comic never even gives a hint that she is anything other then all woman.

Giz has shown at least one other strap on in this comic, so we know she knows they exist, and might even intuit that she digs them. Characterization is important to Giz, and if she wanted us to believe that Harley Quinn was a man, we'd have more proof then the spurious at best "She's playing a female character in a play where another female role is being played by a man in drag." That's like saying "You know that movie To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar? Yeah, well, all the actresses in that movie are men in real life!"
