There are stretchy dresses that would conform to their figures like that. You wouldn’t see that much muscular definition, but you could see the ridges of the pelvic bones and ribs.
Weird critque, but as someone who works with people in bodypaint pretty regularly: those are not sprayed on, you lose the crenelations on the abdominals. That is vacuum sealed latex or I’m a haberdasher.
Ohhhhhhhhh. I see now. I was taking it as “I couldn’t have slept with him,” or “I could …” something or other about sleeping with him. I had the wrong target for her statement.
If you mean the next-to-last sentence about him being on the football team, reference the previous comments about Eva’s relationship with the football team in high school. Presumably all of them at least once.
If you mean the terrible liar part, Alex is saying “Please tell me you didn’t [have sex with him, too].”, and Eva’s offering to do exactly that—tell her that she didn’t—but also pointing out it would be a lie and since she’s bad at that it would be obvious it was a lie.
The differences in Buckaress’s hair length between the artists are too striking in the last couple comics. Is she wearing a wig/extensions on her dates?
Eh, the coloring and figures of the characters are so different after Sausage’s big style shift that I don’t worry about relatively minor details like that. I like this style of hair, so I’ll roll with it.
True. I don’t think we’ve ever seen Eva’s lower back. I think she was too preppy to get a tattoo, back in high school, but if she had a single tattoo, it would definitely be a tramp stamp.
Suddenly the following lyrics get a whole new meaning: “It’s a world of laughter, a world of tears
It’s a world of hope and a world of fears
There’s so much that we share, that it’s time we’re aware…”
OMG. I thought Alex was holding a bright purple dildo in that middle panel. I was like, “Huh, okay. That’s… random.”. It took me so long to notice that there were bristles or something underneath, so it’s probably meant to be a hairbrush.
Thank you for noticing that.
With the hand being blocked by a speech bubble on Panel 3, I had not looked strong enough to notice it myself. So it was a purple Dildo for me all along.

As long as they are happily married,… I don’t see an issue.
Nice dress though,… Why would you wear a “come hither” dress to meet your girlfriends faMily?
Marriage shouldn’t matter. As long as Eva’s ex and Alex’s sister are in a stable relationship and trust each other, no worries.
Just because you dated someone in the past, it doesn’t mean that you’re going to jump into bed the next time you see the person. Unless Alex and her sister are okay with that. I know some people who would be okay with that sort of thing.
The gay/lesbian community tends to be less weird about this sort of thing, probably because of the much shallower local dating-pool.
I’m not sure that Eva… “dated” Jim. Not exactly. Iirc there was a strip with Distracterella where it was implied that Buckaress… really got around during her school years. I’m pretty sure it was implied that she was familiar with the whole football team…
So I don’t think the issue is “OMG that’s my ex!” I think it’s more “Crap that’s one of the guy who saw that part of my life, and he probably still remembers the details, oh please I hope he doesn’t bring anything up…”
The man’s WIFE is present…his wife who is pregnant with his child. Unless he’s deeply suicidal or Beth is a thoroughly cowed woman, I doubt he’s going to start sniggering and making suggestive commentary. “Hey, Eva, remember those after-game rituals? You, me, the boys, sloe gin fizzes?” No, I don’t see that happening.
Yep, that’ll happen :)
Also, obligated adendum: first twice :)
I am amused that their civilian clothes are as “spray on” as super suits. More so, after the armor upgrades. Let me emphasize, that ain’t a complaint.

Agreed. Eva’s dress is just… Wow.
Glad to see that Jim is joining in the fanservice top gang though, something for both sides.
(Hah – autocorrect tried to change “the fanservice” to “the fans’, er, ‘vice'”) [punctuation added for emphasis.]
He’s been doing the male super-heroes with super-cut abs for a while now. It’s been pretty egalitarian. Mama-man was the exception.
He has to rock that dad bod we all long for.

I’m not sure I follow the last thing that Eva said. Can someone else explain that?
Eva is saying that she could tell her that she didn’t sleep with the guy on the football team, but that would be a lie, and she is a terrible liar.
Ohhhhhhhhh. I see now. I was taking it as “I couldn’t have slept with him,” or “I could …” something or other about sleeping with him. I had the wrong target for her statement.
Alex told her to “tell me you didn’t.” Eva could tell her she didn’, but she’s a terrible liar.

It’s a classic but always funny line, I thought.

Base on Jim’s eye line, he’s is going, “hm, where do I know that ponytail from?”
More like, “Hmm, those tits look familiar.”
I wonder if he was sure once he saw her “lower back” when she ran to tell Alex
I do believe that everything is familiar.
True. I don’t think we’ve ever seen Eva’s lower back. I think she was too preppy to get a tattoo, back in high school, but if she had a single tattoo, it would definitely be a tramp stamp.
‘Its a small world after all…’

Okay, this may just be the funniest strip now :)

Is Beth pregnant? I couldn’t see the lat time because she was behind a bar.
She’s still hot!
“She’s still …”
So, pregnant women can’t normally be hot?
Depends on initial starting conditions and other factors.
