You could always use those 'immediate' idea's for later flashbacks if you went with a time skip

Andrew Flerchinger

Something is definitely wrong with the website. I was in the middle of a reread, and can't consistently load comics anymore. Pages loads, but not the comic image. Much harder to reread from within Patreon. I'd love to just reread in print, but seems there are some later gaps.... 😉😉😉

I suppose it’s possible to do both a time skip and not a time skip with a series of split-page now-and-then panels. It might be fun to blend storylines with parallel action in different timeframes or character perspectives that culminate in a common revelation. Could be tricky!

I'd love to see Clinton do a gradual heel turn and become the robot-handed supervillain I think he has lurking deep within.

enchantedsleeper

I love that little mini-arc and Clinton and Yay snarking at each other :D

Be well, do good work, have fun, and keep in touch

These retrospectives make me want to start over but it would take so much time and I would need to use your website. :(

J Corkey Custer

I'm glad you're having a good time, and really liking the flashbacks.

Clifton Royston

Brava! Brava!

After Emily, Clinton was interested in Brun (speaking of someone I'd want to see on-panel again.)

Charlotte Grubbs

I think you're confusing two different characters. Emily (tall Asian chick) was the girl Clinton had a crush on, who said she didn't want to date him. She's still working at Coffee of Doom and AFAIK a current member of the cast, even though it's been a little while since we've seen her. RAVEN (emo chick) was the girl who broke up with the homeless busker. Raven was the OG bimbo-savant (much more on the bimbo side of things than Emily), but she hasn't been in the strip for like...ten years now. Jeph essentially wrote her out by having her go back to school to get her PhD. Honestly, it would be HILARIOUS if Raven of all people showed up in Cubetown, but I kind of got the impression that Jeph had gotten tired of writing her.

I can see it, but the cartoons take much longer than usual to show up. The ads appear more quickly.

Gamera

Wild how Clinton went from the worst charecter in the world to a cool dude after getting his hopes crushed by the girl who's name I can't remember. The one with the sundress, think she's prolly gonna show up at Cubetown because she was a bimbo-savant for lack of a better term. The airhead who broke up with that homeless guitar player over ideological reasons, and because he was "really into anal".

*they 😊

alphanor

Already been there, done that!!

alphanor

Where the heck is Yay??? I expect it to be epic when they return!!!

alphanor

Yes!!!! Tell us...

Stephen Wells

I had a great theory for why this strip wasn't in our Patreon alerts but it turned out I had forgotten what day it is :)

Stephen Wells

That stuck in my mind because after the "a transformer exploded" line, Jeph's under-comic line was "Oh no Bumblebee" :)

Veronica Jane

[Bearded Marten with a drug addiction] We have to go back to Connecticut, Claire! We have to go back!

Steven Karp

Wait, you can see the main site? Chrome is giving me a “This page isn’t working” message and DuckDuckGo just shows a blank page.

Timothy Roller

Tell us about these... Games.

Nathan Kinsey

...and now I'm flashing back to the TV show "Lost".

Captain Button

Same here, but I do get notifications for people liking my comments on it. Also PC, Win10, Firefox

Amelia Lewis

First we'll jump to who's left! Then we'll note that Claire's ri-i-i-i-ight! We'll all vote for our ships! And watch relations ti-i-i-i-ight (en) But it's the Cubetown ar-ar-ar-arc That really made Yay insa-a-a-a-ane! Let's do a Time Warp again!

Andrew L Butula

Do a timeskip that starts with multiple months of flashbacks.

will davison

Whatever you gotta do for the plot, bud, so long as we get a “Where the heck has Raven been?” arc. 😉

MayLaBelle

Same here. I assume that's why there are relatively few comments at the time I'm eating breakfast

Philip Masters

(a) Station would still remember the conversation, (b) he may think that Clinton shouldn’t be encouraged, and (c) maintaining multiple points of attention seems to be beyond most QC AIs apart from Yay.

Daryl Sawyer

For me, probably the most fun "Clinton dorking out about AIs" moment was when a transformer blew at the other apartment complex and all the AIs were outside hanging out and sharing batteries.

Jeffrey Anderson

Why not both, pick up where you were, but a bit after that do a time jump. Or Time Warp if you prefer.

Uncle Matt

So.... you're saying you're Dr Doing Little Doodling.

Lyman Green

Time skip time skip time skip! (That’s my vote) But like all the others.. I’m here for whatever!

Matthew Rose

After the time skip to Dora and Tai's wedding, I'm hoping we get to see the lead up and leaving of Marten and Claire to Cubetown. For me, it feels like too significant a moment to skip past, but whatever you do I'll be there for it! QC has been a part of my life for over 20 years and I'm grateful for it still going and being part of my day. Keeping enjoying your well earned break, Jeph!

Kaarchin

I'm really enjoying this walk down memory lane. I'm this close to start a full reread!

Joseph Bonnar

If, Bookbeard, there is another time warp, let it be done with Tim Curry as a guest host.

Joseph Bonnar

Patreon related. I haven't gotten the notification email for this strip, nor is it showing up in the "notifications" list on Patreon itself. PC, Win 10, Firefox.

Louis Laughlin

Agreed

William Cole

Ho hum, Patreon fucking with stuff and breaking it, what's new?

SilverbackRon

No wonder it is leaking!

Captain Button

I haven't seen anything wrong on Patreon, but I am using Firefox on Win10. But on the main QC site, his comments on the old strips has all the single apostrophes replaced with question marks in little black diamonds. So it might be some confusion about the character set he is using versus what Firefox thinks it is.

BookBeard

If you decide to do another time skip, I'm personally a fan of the montage-style (#3136 for example). Feels less like we're missing stuff that way. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3136

jonesnori

Is anyone else having trouble with Jeph's commentary acting like a neon sign and blinking? It seems to be multiple fonts while it's blinking, too. I have had to reload the page multiple times to get it to settle down, for several days now. (I'm on an Android tablet, looking at Patreon in Chrome.)

Sean Kinlin

Nor did I. I happened to be refreshing yesterday's post and saw that there was a new one.

Captain Button

I didn't either.

Dissociated Women Incorporated

You could do a time skip to the year 4285, right in the middle of the Fungus Wars! You could even cover the Battle of the Mycelial Bulge!

True sibling energy. "Only *I* get to make fun of him!"

Minzoku Bokumetsu

"The docking bay 11 I just installed just now as we were talking!"

Taigan

For some reason, I didn’t get a notification of this post from Patreon. 🤔

Sean Kinlin

Possibly even Station's subroutines don't have that much patience.

Sammitch

My man!

Michael Steamweed

Kinda surprised that Station doesn't have some low-level subroutines (roughly equivalent to today's best chatbots) that could take over for him in talking with Clinton.

SilverbackRon

I like that Claire is protective of her brother. And that she teases him sometimes.

BookBeard

I mean, he didn't get tied to a chair, threatened with a sword or slapped across the face with his own hand, so as first impressions go I'd say this ranks among his best.
