well, that's a rather abrupt ending for the chapter.

i guess we're not gonna see the aftermath of domenico & zoe's fight, or whether sandra ever got over her bashfulness & did the shoot, or how they got off the island, or find out if zoe somehow managed to get sandra to the scheduled appearances.

ok

I don't think it's the end of the chapter. For anyone who wonders why Alex isn't worried about his sister's disappearance this strip is the answer. He thinks she's been in her room the whole time and too passive to check.

For someone who's longed for clothes all weekend you'd think Lavali would be dressed by now.

I love the t-shirt references because they really throw off the timeline of these comics - this should still be... what, 2010 or 11 in comic time? And he has an overwatch shirt on, which means they all either get very little done over time or he's such a hardcore fan he had the shirt before overwatch was a known entity.

Not criticizing, its just amusing to me

For someone so happy to have clothes again she sure is taking her sweet, sweet time getting any of them put on.

Where does it say that this is the end of the chapter?

Comic-Book Time* is a thing. And not even a very new thing.

Every webcomic should be scripted so that you cannot read the comic without first reading a wikipedia entry on a floating timeline. Every single day.

Guys, I said in the post I wasn't criticizing - I know what a floating timeline is. I was merely making an observation on how if you consider the timeline of the comic from where it was set, the tshirts come across as particularly amusing

It appears while you were looking at tvtropes and wikipedia, the crux of my observation flew over your heads. You sure 'splain'd me a comic thing I've known forever, I'll tell you what.

If you wanna go with comic timeline, ma3 started in 2008 and this has only been a year since then (Gary's birthday as an indication), so if we discount floating timeline, it's 2009 currently and not 2010 or 2011, according to your last post.

So, Lavali's been "missing" for 2-3 days and Alex still doesn't know?
