Not the internet debate I'm proudest of but let's not forget when we first met Teddy he was breaking into a museum to try to inspect the workings of a clockwork duck.
If Abby has a similar mindset and curiosity about certain parts of the female anatomy as her brother has for mechanical avians it's possible that "nip to boob" ratio might be something she was interested in and had given serious thought to.
They're a funny lot those Di Carlo's.
Well, there is that.
... I miss the days when Teddy's scientific obsession was a hotter topic than... you know.
Well so far Chloe is the only one. I suspect Teddy won't be happy when he finds out what happened and Abby will probably realize the consequences of becoming a succubus when Prudence has to break off her friendship with her.
Pretty sure the bigger issue is that she's eventually gonna get hungry...
And we know how Abby is when it comes to impulsiveness.
Oh, but she's a succubus, now - so, age is irrelevant. /sarcasm
Never mind they've hammered it in - twice now (both via the artist and within the comic itself), that - despite how she looks - Abby is still twelve.
Please, don't come to me expecting me to fix your problems.

That's a good point, Abby was obsessed with boobs pre-comic because when she met Chloe and she used her shape-shifting powers to shrink she said "that girl just shrank", but when she returned to her original form the first thing she said was "Why won't my boobs come in as fast as hers", not "she transformed again".
So her boob curiosity is not just a pre-teen-level curiosity, is a DeCarlo-level curiosity (like the Vegeta meme "Over 9000").
This whole strip annoys me - not just because of Abby's sudden knowledge of 'nip to boob' ratio; but how a couple of these panels were illustrated, in general.
The first panel I think is supposed to be Chloe trimming off the useless suspenders from Abby's ruined clothes; but she's not cutting into anything - there's empty space where the scissors are. The way it looks makes it seem like Chloe is doing something to her own clothes and Abby is just admiring herself (like she is in the other panels). And that last panel is the worst. Not because of the poor joke (which is bad enough); but because the composition disrupts the flow of the rest of the strip (Chloe is on the right side for the majority of the panels - but that last panel, she's suddenly on the left, with Ilsa taking her place on the right).
It's a artistic nitpick, I know - and it could be explained that Chloe walked around to the other side - but seeing as there was no motion in the remainder of the strip, I just find it jarring; as it makes no sense why the positions are suddenly switched.

It's really weird that you're calling a twelve-year-old a slut, fictional or not.
In all honesty, I'm not seeing the 'slut savant' comment as any worse than Lacy's 'you look like a porn factory exploded' when she confronted Teddy about his new look; and, given his actions shortly after that encounter - Lacy wasn't far off the mark.
Sure, Lacy might have been spot-on, but she's also a character who was written within the context of that storyline. Her comment also wasn't directed at a barely-pubescent child, and she's not (what I assume to be) a real-life grown adult.
I like the new Abby. She's more interesting than before.A separate storyline with Abby as Succubus can be very hilarious and entertaining.She's still a young girl with adult features. This combination can deliver a very interesting storyline.Now Teddy wants to be a boy again, there should be some compensation in the house.Abby should be one of the leading characters. She deserves more than the little sister of....

Im with Valkov...calling any 12 year old a slut is just weird...shes.......12 my dude. the most shes thought about boys is them hanging out at the waterpark with her and eating ice cream while they wear swim trucks. actual sex is beyond her capability of thinking which is why im dreading where this comics rabbit hole will take us.
(on the other hand i dont believe that theyd ever write a story like that but... )

For the time being she won't have that kind of hunger, Succubi in the Eerie Cuties universe only get hungry for lust when they are away from hell for to long.
I'm not sure if she'd even develop the hunger if she were away from hell. Depends on what causes the hunger. Do they get the hunger after going through puberty, or do they get the hunger when their powers require fueling? The doompanties arc in EC showed Chloe feeding after acquiring powers but that seemed to be a conscious decision rather than a reaction to genuine hunger. Eh, we do know that she's safe from feeling that hunger in hell though, so there's a pretty easy way to avoid her having to feed on any guys.
@Mandy: Chloe's powers caused her to automatically feed off the students at Charybdis, each time one of them kissed her (during the 'Kissing Booth' bonus story in Vol.Ø). All it took was a peck on the lips each time.
Granted, that was long before Chloe transferred to Tartarus to learn to control her powers, whereas Abby has just been granted hers. So I doubt she'll have proper control yet. Meaning, hunger may not be required for her to feed accidentally.
That's a fair point. Chloe started developing powers and an ability to feed long before she felt hungry, so it's probably puberty that causes the hunger to start... So, Dave might throw in some jokes about Abby accidentally feeding, but she probably won't starve to death/feel hungry if she doesn't feed.
I think that Abby is going to learn what sucks about having a body like that and start wanting her old body back then poof she has her old body back. Maybe Dave is setting things up for Abby to... mature(!??!) I know. I know. Impossible right? Though that was the lasting impact of EC magical maturing and gender swaps... except for Kade who never learned anything.
