It also bugs me because it used to be a comfy read and then it just turned into... that.Yeah, I tuned out on webcomics for the most part. His comic was one that always made me mad because it was so lazy, so full of pandering bullshit. And badly, badly drawn. And yet he was somehow a success. Truly, there is no God.
Thinking on relationships, I miss when Jeph would show romances, warts and all. Marten and Dora had problems in the roughly 1000 pages they were together, but they could have ended up engaged or married instead of breaking up over Dora's issues because you saw why they worked and also why they didn't work. Wil and Penelope worked as a deconstruction of the initial spark as we learn the reason Wil was able to go on a long journey of self-discovery is because he's unemployed. Faye and Sven hooking up was presented as a bad idea destined to fail from the start, and it was.
Around the time Faye and Angus got together, he stopped doing this shit. They had no real problems, she was over her issues for the most part, and they only broke up because he had to move for a job. Marten and Tranny were sugar sweet in a way that made no sense for the comic. And somehow, when she got with Tai, all of Dora's issues magically went out the window despite the fact that Tai was polyamorous and so there would be even more worry about cheating.
It was a comic with barely any edge... and it lost what little it had.
