Overnight, too, apparently. Drama works FAST.
No, Robin works SUPERHUMAN ABDUCTEE POWER fast.
Don’t need no credit card to ride this train…that’s the power of LOVE!
I was distracted from the plot of this strip by my hardon for new Rock Band.
I think it’s funny that Robin appears to believe not that love has power, but rather is the manifestation of some higher, T-shaped, paper force of pure soul-crushing dramatic angst.
I’m pretty sure that kind of ties into the song. At least it does so more than time-traveling.
Thank you, Leslie! I’ve been wanting some concrete evidence, similar haircuts don’t make you related.
Oh, good. My girlfriend’s hair is similar to mine and it was really worrying me that she may be my long lost twin sister.
Hooray for the Westermarck Effect!
(Actually, I’m pretty sure Walky and Maggie have you beat for the
creepy psuedo-incestgeek love.)d’oh. Willis.
Well, at least we know it’s official.
Hope Robin can win and throw off the emo.
She has BLUE MARKER STUBBLE. What makes you think she’s not going to steal 1 ton of Skittles next week?
….Why is it tagged Roz?
It’s not.
Gotta love Robin playin’ Key-tar hero with pen stubble! XD
I just hope Leslie can bring her out of this funk and that this doesn’t lead to yet more drama between them!
This is so… wrong…
And here I’d assumed that the “stubble” was just the unwiped remains of some sort of sugary snack….
Me toooooo.
The real explanation is funnier, though.
Is it just me, or does anyone else think the strip’s slowly coming to the calm before the end?
IT BETTER NOT BE THE END!!!!!
Seconded!
Thirded!
Fourth-ed…?
5thed!
VIthed!
If this is the calm, I can’t imagine what the drama is going to be like.
Hell yeah Power of Love!
Haha, gotta love the fake blue stubble.
I CAUGHT UP! IN THREE DAYS I CAUGHT UP!!!!
Did you read through the previous strips(Roomies!, It’s Walky!, and Joyce and Walky!)? It’s easy to miss them, and unlikely that you’d be able to read everything in 3 days.
If they forgo sleep, sure.
Amazing Robin! LoloL
And that last panel is perfect.
YES…EMO ROBIN I CANT WAIT
The Lesbian looks so very,very tired and worn out in that first panel.
This must mean that Robin also got a sample of Faz’s DNA. Why isn’t anyone here asking how she did that?!
Faz has been trying to give Robin samples of his DNA for years.
The only way Robin could have been more emo right there is if she were playing Free Bird instead…
And yea, after looking over the song list for Rock Band 3 I want it too.
Prediction:
1. Robin will discover “The Touch” is available for download, and buy it for Ethan.
2. Robin will play “The Touch”.
3. Robin will declare that “The election must be won, no matter the cost.”
4. Robin will drive over her opposition in the election in a red semi-trailer truck.
I can’t help but notice the lyrics for “Power of Love” are slightly off. D:
Really? How?
It should be “take”, not “need”.
Wha, really?! For 18 years I’ve thought it was need. Huh.
IIRC “need” is in the next lyric: “Don’t need no credit card to ride this train”.
Well, that would be one way to stop Sidney Yus. I can picture it. Robin takes Ultracar and plows through the Axis of Something to get to Sidney. She walks up behind her and declares…
ROBIN: “One shall stand! One shall fall!”
SIDNEY: “Why throw away your life so recklessly?!”
ROBIN: “That’s a question you should ask yourself!”
SIDNEY: “No! I’ll crush you with my bare hands!”
And they commence to fight it out. Lol! Man, is it me, or do Megatron’s lines fit Sidney to a T?
THAT’S the POWER of looove!
Best song ever!!!!!
I’m surprised Lesley wasn’t distracted by The Power of Love, due to her love of Back to the Future.
“Don’t TAKE money… Don’t TAKE fame…”
And that is the best way we could have got confirmation on their relation.
I love me some artificial five o’clock shadow.
The song and orange shirt are a clue that Robin is going to take a Delorean back to before all the DRAMA started and put a stop to it. She would then return to a world where Sidney is running the store, Sarah Palin is president and Ethan and Mike are a couple.
Nonono. Ethan and LESLIE.
A world gone totally, totally wrong.
No… I think that Ethan and Leslie would make a cute couple if they were to be in a ‘straight’ relationship. And since being ‘gay’ is not something that can be changed by going back in time and taking away a kid’s He-man figures (trust me it would have made no difference), Robin can’t get Ethan and Leslie to ‘straighten’ up no matter how many insects she stomps in the past.
Ethan and Mike would be the totally wrong world’s relationship because Ethan would no have found out about Mike’s drinking ‘problem’ and thus Mike would be totally abusive to Ethan and Ethan would be submissive and just take it.
At least that’s how I see that ‘what if’ playing out.
either this or Robin will go into the past change sooooo much and come back into the DoA universe in 2010… tho what with the 4th dimension why she would be in indiana i’m not sure…
I see the future… i see… a huge “Dawww” moment between Faz and Amber
I love the nonplussed way that Leslie reacts to Robin stealing Amber’s blood. You know that a part of her is going “Wow. I’m dating this.”
…Note how Robin never answered the question about her stubble.
Rock Band 3, hell yes.
This explains the mysterious bandage my shoulder today.
AHH! KILL IT WITH FIRE!
Damn, Robin looks good with some stubble. Mmmn.
?
And, indeed…
!
Wait, if Amber and Faz share a father, they shouldn’t have very many common DNA markers. (ignoring random gene position changes and hermaphroditism for a moment) Faz got the half of their dad’s DNA with the Y chromosome and Amber got the half with the X chromosome.
Now, that said, with random gene position changes as common as they are, they could actually have gotten all the same DNA markers from their father except for the X&Y chromosomes, it’s just kinda rare. But with how much Amber’s dad is said to have banged Asians, it’s completely plausible.
YES I DID JUST MAKE AN ARGUMENT AND REFUTE IT IMMEDIATELY ON THE INTERNET, WHAT OF IT?
I do believe that Robin is enjoying a nice game of Keytar Hero.
Damn is that even legal?
