Terrible
>>154693916hot damn, alrightJeph's feeling it apparently
>>154693916and we won't see them together again for 2 and a half years
Go for it, Clinton!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFZjqVnWBhc
>>154693916Great pairing, Yay doesn't have a gender so Clinton can still be gay, but Jeph clearly treats her as a girl and he's comfortable writing that dynamic
since when has this guy mellowed out?Wasn't part of his shtick that he goes all fanboy social stupid when faced with other people's robotics and AI, especially at the macro? And it doesn't get more macro than this one....
>>154694041Non-zero chance he was a dweeb because he hadn't gotten laid yet, but a pity fuck from Emily and then plowing Elliot while both of them thought about Brun was enough to make him stop being the joker.
>>154693933Do it, Clinton! Clamp that robot hand firmly and securely on that tight plastic ass and tongue fuck her oral speakers!
>alexjonesrape.wav
>>154693916God damn, Yay, just fuck that this faggot in the ass!
>>154693916Robutt mating ritual.
>>154693954It fucking happened! We actually got to see Yay shake her perky ass
>>154693916For heaven's sake, SOMEBODY fuck a robot already!
>>154695376I do want to fuck a slim robot, tho.
I've seen you do this with multiple characters, Heph. Like 3 times with this one alone, in fact. You can't cheat me this time, Hacques. I'm onto your tricks.
>>154694302>a pity fuck from EmilyClint never scored. His first sexual and only sexual experience was gay because he and Elliot simultaneously gave up on women. If only he'd known that the robots are into him. There's no undoing the gay shit they did.
>>154693916>her ASS her ASS
I've been reading Pattern Recognition by William Gibson and while it's not his best work for something written in 2002 it's remarkably prescient in how forum culture would evolve and subdivide even as platforms consolidated. I mention this because it centers around a niche subforum of a subforum dedicated to the study and dissemination of a strange series of periodically released anonymous film snippets, a massive body of work with no clear structure or intent that was nevertheless deeply compelling to those who followed it. The examination and understanding of this media consumes the main character, and is the main driving force of the plot. Her unerring dedication to her strange little forum reminded me of whatever the hell we've got going on here. I don't really have a moral to this anecdote.
>>154695606>I don't really have a moral to this anecdote.The moral is we're wasting small portions of our lives on ship teases that won't go anywhere.
>>154693916Wow! Three (3) background objects/decorations! Jeff must be having a good day.
>>154695782but at least we are having fun, right? right!?
>>154695465At least Clinton was almost certainly the top in that relationship
>>154693916We all know this isn't going anywhere but it's fun to speculate anyway. We all know Clinton hooked up with Elliot, but he also went on a date with Emily. So since Clinton swings both ways, do everyone think Yay has a female chassis or are they twinking it up?
>>154693916Look at how fucking flat spookybot is.
>>154693916I need Yay's nipples
>>154697047Shes a robot, so she can alter her flatness and other bodyparts like her ass on the fly.
>>154695606The Blue Ant trilogy is really good.
>>154697203Is this by inflating pouches or nanamachines?
>>154693916And yet, still better than the idiocy that is Dumbing of Age this days.
>>154697729Shes like the Terminator X. Robo skellie, coated in nanamachine skin to take on any form.
>>154693916Has Jeph done any poly relationships yet? Perfect opportunity.
>>154697993He specifically set one up and then shot it down a few years ago with Brun.
>>154696882Yay is a flat chested Barbie doll and we love her for it.
>>154697047flat is justice
>>154697733I think the main difference is that when Jeph outright kills a ship his fanbase likes it usually comes in the beginning, sometimes just after the tease, whereas Willis will spend actual years developing and devoting storylines to it just to kill it.Speaking of which, are Dorothy and Joyce still brave, stunning, and heroic lesbians for not reading the room that no one cares they're slamming clam?
>>154698139>two bottom pics have boobsGross dude.
>>154698310The tops are padded.
>>154693916>wiggle waggleIm going to imagine that her entire ass can vibrate like a jackhammer

>>154698201>Speaking of which, are Dorothy and Joyce still brave, stunning, and heroic lesbians for not reading the room that no one cares they're slamming clam?Yes >>154697839
>>154698591>Police are policing? Oy vey shut it down.
>>154698591>>154698618I'm trying to figure out just how bad the lawsuits would be. University has vigilante committing assault and battery against students, to the point of breaking and entering private homes off campus, that interferes with police activity, gets approving articles and editorials in the school newspaper, employee of said newspaper actively aids and abets the vigilante, said employee also used school social media to accuse another student of serial rape, one of the alleged victims is the employee's gf, and the alleged rapist was stabbed by the alleged vigilante in her private identity; on top of that, the alleged vigilante's father is responsible for a murder and mass kidnapping on campus. Oh, and everyone involved is personal friends with each other.
>>154698745>Oh, and everyone involved is personal friends with each other.Even the accused rapist?
>>154693916isn't that the troon?
>>154699220No, thats the troons twin brother.
>>154699220That's her brother
>>154699220No, it's the younger brother who got twinkified to shoehorn him turning bi but then broke up with his boyfriend and hasn't mentioned wanting to fuck dudes since then.
>>154699167Possibly, the relationship web in DoA is pretty massive.
>>154699275>her
>>154699298If so, they did the meme.https://x.com/i/status/2061636551826661796
>>154699467>since she's a godless slut now Joyce cheats on Dorothy with Ryan>to get back at her Dorothy drugs and rapes Danny>Joyce goes back to Dorothy now that the attraction has been rekindled>Sal beats the shit out of Dorothy>Ryan rapes the now helpless Dorothy>Joyce goes back to Ryan
>>154699642
>>154699859I was expecting a WNBA game
>>154693916
>>154700862Heh. Never thought about how easy it would be to expand the rectangular speech bubbles.
>>154698139The things I'd do to that robutt and perfectly smooth rochest
>>154697619I read Zero History a decade ago and do not remember it, this is my first time reading Pattern Recognition. Every time I read a Gibson book I allow myself to ignore the fact the last quarter of the book is going to be a series of contrivances so that 4-10 of the relevant characters can all sit at a table and explain the plot before the book just kinda stops. He does it every goddamn time, it's baffling.
>>154695606>>154697619>>154702910>William GibsonDamn, been a hot minute since I read his stuff. I should really give it another go, I remember really liking it but I never finished a couple of the books for whatever reason. The Sprawl and Bridge series were my favorites, don't think I got around to most of his short stories and the newer book he released
>>154703430I hear a lot of good things about the peripheral, but I haven't checked it out yet. I really enjoyed The Blue Ant trilogy. There is a degree of what>>154702910 says, but it isn't *as* bad.
>>154703457I liked the Peripheral. I haven't seen the show about it but the book was pretty good, picked it up on a whim and binged it fairly quickly. Definitely a departure from the "gritty" tone his first trilogies had, but not in a bad way
>>154693916>>154696109Although panel 3 she's already walking away from him, panel 4 looks like she just went past him and his back is facing a different wall. Did he teleport?
Jeph can you maybe talk about girl buttholes without mentioning shit or prolapse.
>>154704770This one is so generic and banal that I genuinely thought it was a repost of an older strip. How the mighty have fallen.
>>154704770
>>154693916So he went from having gay sex to being attracted to a sentient mannequin shaking its parts? I'd say that's an upgrade
>>154704971It's amazing what having no romantic chemistry can do for a diversity quota.
>>154704971He tried the dick, didn't like it, now he's moving on to tight small androgynous wiggly robutts.
>>154704770OMG!!ITS HANNERS!!
>>154704770>Ayo's fat black ass is not visibleTERRIBLE!
>>154705683if only some kind hearted rounin artist would grace us to fix this situation!
>>154704770PINK SOCK
>>154704770Literally the only "fucking an Afghan girl" 2D media I've ever seen was kinda undone by having her get vaginal prolapse (sources say that may have something to with her being 9 or something). It's the same artist as Metamorphosis, so fucked up shit has always been their thing, but shit dude, the context was already rare enough before having the MC use her inverted vagina as an onahole, couldn't you save that for the 5 millionth Japanese girl instead? The librarian story they did was wholesome and sweet narration of her impregnation, why couldn't I get that for their take on the Afghan Girl?TL;DR PTSD flashback triggered by the word "prolapse"
>>154706984>mfw reading all that
>>154704770>MEANWHILE, IN A SHITTY COFFEE SHOP IN NORTHHAMPTON, MASSACHUSETTS
>>154704770Jephs getting his characters mixed up again. Martens the one with the rectal prolapse. But I get it, they look so similar and one used to take dick and the other currently does.
>>154705161It seems he is just afraid of knocking some girl,up, so he sex with genders that cant get pregnant!
>>154694025Pretty sure Clinton is still canonically bi, but if that counts as a gay ship for PBucks, I guess that's a win-win
>>154697729Nanomachines, son
I miss Faye's Fayes!!
>>154698139As long as it comes with a big butt and legs that won't quit I'm sorta OK with flat.
>>154713919No delicious flat chest comes with little ass and hips.
>>154714465Die, pedo.
>>154693916I bet she adjusted the shape of her ass while they were talking just to prepare to tease him.
>>154694041Clinton has no idea who Yay is. She keeps mysteriously alluding to her inherent superiority, but it just sounds like she’s exaggerating, so he doesn’t really have any reason to believe she isn’t a regular robot who is just kind of a narcissist. It adds a good layer of tension to their relationship.
Go back to Yay discovering a sexuality, Heph.
>>154693916Holy shit, this comic is still going? I used to read it daily when I was in high school back in 2011. Is that the trans girl's brother? Are they still all 20 somethings? Is it even worth catching up with?
What happened to Brun
>>154715644In order: Yes. Yes. Probably but time progression is rarely specified. Absolutely not.
>>154716073Image appears to be broken.
>>154715785Got written out of the comic entirely after she turned down Elliot and Clinton and Jeph realized there was no reason for her to be around at all then.
>>154716139>introduce brown autismo girl>sever every potential plot thread or relationship she could have>????Did he get flak for making her too autistic or something?
>>154716086just like Moray neurological receptors
>>154704770these are the kind of people having sex.
>>154716168I assume one of his diehard fans said it would be problematic to have a WMBF threesome.
>>154716168There was that little dust up about her growing up too poor to afford to eat raisins.
>>154716189It definitely gave him more fujo points to have the two guys going after her settle for each other.
>>154716168We're talking about Questionable Content, this comic is like 70% introducing quirky girls and then forgetting about them.
>>154716168It's okay, he introduced two more brown autists and put them both in highly codependent lesbian relationships
>>154704770HONEYMOON?!YOU MEAN IT'S LITERALLY ONLY BEEN 2 WEEKS TO A MONTH MAX?!
>>154716500some terminally broke bitches will honeymoon 6-12 months after the wedding because it's too expensive to do back to back
>>154716500Time passes VERY slowly in the world of QC.
>>154716500>>154716532I think people used to say the entire comic took place over a few weeks. Even the page before the wedding happened, the time skip given was just "some time later."
>>154716559I only started reading this comic around The Stabening, and even then not reading every comic. I've noticed that sometimes time skips happen, but I'd say maybe 3-4 years have passed since that house party where Marigold wasn't drawn ugly-fat enough and Hacks got drunk and stabbed himself.
>>154716642>you will never fuck a blearily hungover Dr. Loli who grumbles that every thrust is making her migraine worse
>>154716559>>154716599When Sam was introduced she was 14, she is currently 15; so since Sam's introduction the maximal amount of time that can have passed is one day shy of 2 years. Beyond that it gets nebulous with, IIRC, a range of between 4-5 years on the low end and something like a decade on the upper end. But either way causes chronological issues.
>>154716642Ah, I wasn't expecting Geoph to swing back so hard in the other direction after drawing a few background details. I wasn't aware that hangovers in QC took place in purgatory.
>>154716703>When Sam was introduced she was 14Damn, I almost forgot about that character. I wish we got more of her from dbaru.
>>154706436I forgot this character even existed
>>154716830These 3 pages are a perfect case study in how he draws backgrounds when horny vs not horny.
>>154716642Did they fuck or what? I need SOMEBODY to fuck Dr.Loli.
>>154716899>hornyWe call it "inspired".
>>154716642>No YayTerrible
>>154716642Here, have a good comic strip about egg sandwiches.
>>154716907>Did they fuck or what?Unlikely. No one in the vicinity of Martin has sex anymore.
>>154716500I do believe Dora mentioned they had to delay their honeymoon because of this.
>>154715820Willing to give a tl;dr?
>>154717629>Is it even worth catching up with?>Absolutely not.>Willing to give a tl;dr?Jeph spent years almost letting something interesting happen, but nothing ever does.
>>154717629Faye got drunk enough to get fired, got in deep with the robot mafia, ended up fucking a lady robot with PTSD and amnesia. Dora and Tai got married but Jeph spent 30 strips on leadup before realizing that he didn't want to draw a wedding so he timeskipped past it. There was a conga line of side characters with mental illnesses who each came in, fucked up the plot for six months, then were put in a woodchipper. One after the other, it was like something out of lemmings.Jeph got into a rut and was going to write off Marten and Claire by sending them to a robot research facility on a Canadian island, but had so much fun when he went back to basics and put Marten back in a town full of wacky idiots who all vaguely wanted to fuck him that now Jeph is stuck rotating between two hub locations. The island has a googirl with massive tits, a robot cop with massive tits, a loli with two doctorates/two fake arms/two small tits, and a mousy robot secretary that very much wants to fuck Marten and just upgraded to a new chassis with massive tits. There, that'll make you conversant.
>>154717629Claire and Marten moved to an experimental robot island near Canada with a bunch of wacky robots and scientists, Claire was given arbitrary power over them because she's such a good librarian. Emily also moved there recently and her nose keeps changing size and shape. The short chick is a 19 year old Dutch-Canadian genius who literally and canonically devolved from anxiety to the point that she hasn't accomplished anything in 2 years and likely never will again.A couple characters became vtubers when Jeph wished he'd gotten into that. Faye is a lesbian with a war machine whose memories were erased. Pintsize got a new body. Numerous characters had crushes that were never mentioned again.
>>154716642
>>154717681>>154717783Honestly I respect the shark jump. From what I remember most strips took place in a coffee shop and it was just "What if Scott Pilgrim but FRIENDS". Seems he leaned into the sci fi a lot more which is at least interesting.
>>154717831The sci fi is superficial on a "dude wouldn't it be cool if" level. The only upshot is occasional suggestiveness and fan artists.
>>154717831Jeph is cursed where he does, under it all, have actual interesting ideas and decent chops as a musician but the only thing he's ever done that garnered success is QC, whose primary audience seems to want it to be about as milquetoast as a newspaper comic. My fucking dad reads QC, for christ's sake. If he reads these threads I'm going to kill myself but that's beside the point.. Jeph tried making an actual sci-fi webcomic to offgas some of his worldbuilding and it went nowhere, so now we're at a point where there's often pages that are just four robot women in form-fitting sportswear talking about nothing.
>>154717862That's a shame. I saw the aliens and thought he actually decided to explore his setting. I remember the red head dude had a robot hand and worked with AI or robotics or both.>>154717866I actually stopped reading QC because it was so milquetoast. It does feel like a newspaper comic at times and the format didn't help that. Wonder how Jeph feels about being stuck on QC.
>>154718148Yeah, we come here every day and shitpost about nanobot water turning everyone into metrosexual 20somethings because the comic itself offers no friction or structure whatsoever. There's also a pretty grounded theory that Jeph comes here himself from time to time based on how stories have gone, but that's just as likely bleedthrough of similar sentiments in his reddit/4chan/twitter fanbases.
>>154716642Who´s the boy with grey clothes?
>>154718483That's Dr. Loli, a girl-failure with two doctorates who isn't able to produce any scientific work outside of the rigid structure of academia.
>>154718533She looked better here.
>>154718148>Wonder how Jeph feels about being stuck on QC.Unless there's any raytheon engineers itt he's probably making more money than any of us, and he can clearly choose between popping out four panels of slop in 20 minutes >>154716642 or actually putting in detail when he feels like it/is horny enough to bother >>154693916I despise Jeph Jacques as an artist but he is, tragically, objectively doing better in life than I am.
>>154718539I agree, but Jeff hates long hair and cuts it off all the women who become common characters.
Hey, remember that arc where Marten went over to Dr. Loli's place by himself and got drunk with her and basically admitted that his relationship with Claire is in the shitter, and for a brief moment we thought something was actually going to happen? That was nice.
>>154718674Yeah, those were a fun few pages.
>>154718682>>154718674It was the closest we came to something actually interesting happening, with some actual drama. But Jeffs a fucking hack that would rather keep the status quo so he can have long drawn out plotlines that take literal years to tell, where nothing interesting happens.The fan material is more interesting than the comic itself will ever be, because Jeff refuses to take risks.
sex when?
>>154718163How old is he now? Gotta be at least in his 40s. Wonder if he feels trapped by this
>>154717783Honestly he just needs to complete the move to Cubetown. Faye and Bubbles should transfer over because there's just a higher need for their robot repairs, and Hanners can go there just because.Dora and Tai and the other remnants of the old setting should just slowly be written out. Perhaps Clinton and Spookybot could make the jump, but I don't think we need Vtuber House or the Yoga club.
>>154717866A long ass time ago, I think it was determined from some background stuff that QC is supposed to be the past of his weird scifi strip. Like a namedrop or design in the background in an early Cubetown strip or something.
>>154718874It's funny. I read another lesbians + weird stuff comic that's also like a newspaper strip, but it saves its wilder dramatic stuff to seasonal outings (for a few years, a succubus tried to steal the main girl's sex energy every Halloween). Even the "we resolve drama by talking it out" is way meatier than Jeph's "A conflict? Lets deflect or have someone apologize in the same page it starts, so it goes nowhere!" shenanigans. Buff girl goes into a dissociative depressive state around the anniversary of her dad's death? Her wife literally sits her down, lets he know she's there for her, and they work through it. Younger sibling pisses off older sibling because their way of trying to explain that what they're doing ISN'T a prank? They openly talk about their resentments towards each other and try to have a better relationship as adults. I think the difference it they take several strips to discuss stuff, but wacky jokes and nudity still happen for fun.
>>154721098I remember liking this series but then the artist decided to only post crops on twitter and you'd have to go their website to read it. I don't like it that much. Also could be sexier, even if it's about a big buff lesbian and a small cute lesbian getting naked and having non-explicit sex every once in a while.
>>154721138It did start out as porn, but the "official" comics tend to be tamer. It's definitely not for everyone, but its a good example of what QC would be if the point was more "characters growing as people" and not "half-baked shenanigans they TRY to be meaningful."
>>154720730when did Jeph do violent gore?
