Yay back to Dillon !

I like Amber but honestly, we already got plenty of her in Ménage à 3 and Dillon had been neglected for long enough. I hope the comic focus more on him than on Amber. And I find Dillon way more funny than Amber.

I'm hoping that we end up focusing more on Ruby :P

That last panel. :)) "Bastard Ex-Boyfriend" indeed.

Now here's hoping we get some Ruby fanservice in the next few strips. Maybe her bra matches her panties. :x

...I'd love to see a lot more of Ruby...and maybe...nah, probably too much to hope for even though it would certainly make for her and Dillon's interactions to be more fraught.

On the very minimal evidence so far, Ruby's job is to get in Amber's way, and her body language looks a tiny bit repressed and repressive. However, given the set-up in her very first appearance in the comic, and the unwise skirt length for someone who's trying to play the censorious sister, she may temper that by being a bit ditzy.

My bet is that the high-end fan service won't happen for a while, though we may get some more underwear shots, to Ruby's pained embarrassment.

more likely she will "CRASH" on Dillon while both are semi-nude

and she will take a liking to the "handsome Jerzy"

..........OOOOOOOOK.


Kind of makes me wonder exactly how long they kept their relationship secret from Gary.

Three months.

The fact that he failed to pick up on their relationship at all should have been an early clue as to Gary's complete and utter social incompetence. But in this case, we have no evidence that this little bit of roleplaying happened in Gary's place, rather than after they got their own.

I dunno....considering the frequency of the Matt and Dillon appearances I figured that this all happened within a few days or a week or so. Just long enough to find out about Matt's bisexuality/cheating, so I wouldn't figure the sex happened that quick after they moved.

could be anywhere in time within those 3 months or after they moved, I have learned to consider "each volume" of Ma3 to be about 1.5 to 2 months(right now it is somewhere between 7 to 10 months since strip number 1 of Ma3), so since 1 to 150(when Dill found Sandra with Matt) about 5 to 8 weeks after

*sigh* Why did I get the feeling that a well-built guy with a Polish name would end up as a construction worker or something along those lines? Is that stereotype really so widespread?
Sorry, it's just my little pet peeve. At least Jerzy makes a decent impression.

I'm not sure if it makes the situation better or worse ;)
