You may have noticed I haven't been putting up bonus comics the past couple months- I've been working on something a little different instead. It feels kind of weird to be writing QC these days, since it exists in its own world where there's not a pandemic, and I felt the need to write something a little more grounded in OUR reality. That's what this comic is about!

I don't know how many of these I'll do, but I'm posting the first three pages to Patreon to make myself commit to doing more, haha. I like these two dummies and I hope I can do more strips with them in the future.

Ooh, I love the colour palette in these, it's gorgeous. Also I happened to be playing Animal Crossing the very moment I read this; I relate to Kate so hard.

These were really cute Jeph! I appreciate you finding a way to tell some 'pandemic tales' while we're in the middle of it! Hope you & yours are well :) please post more of these two if you feel inspired!!

This is amazing! Second comic was so fucking funny and good!

Anonymous

I have no idea what everyone else is doing, but I'm reading this on my laptop and in the second comic, where the daughter's talking to her parents, in the third panel where daughter has a alllllll that dialog crammed into a teensy speech balloon? I can't read a word of it. :( For whatever reason, it's coming across as three thumbnails at the top of the post, rather than as the large, page-size pages we usually get. Clicking on them makes them enlarge a bit, but not nearly enough. What am I doing wrong? :( :( :(

I want moar

Anonymous

Really digging this. I hope there's more.

Anonymous

My only issue is Tom Nook = Tanuki, not raccoon. Otherwise, agreed with everything Kate yelled.

Anonymous

I had to refresh my page a couple of times before I could click on the thumbnails to get it to zoom in, I think Patreon is being weird. In this case it's the roommate, Kate, speaking offscreen saying (and I quote) "FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND BELLS for a fucking HOUSE UPGRADE I swear to god when the revolution comes you'll be the first against the fucking WALL you fucking profiteering TRASH PANDA"

This made me really happy. I will be very pleased if you do more, but I also know that creativity isn't as simple as "people like thing make more of thing" so just do you.

Actually bandanas are a lot more comfortable. Seeing as the masks don't actually make anyone safer, may as well be comfortable.

I do appreciate QC didn't magically get a pandemic so it can relate. That being said, I like the comic that can relate to this RL situation.

Well... I was really hoping for a DORD revival, but I guess these'll do.... (But seriously, these are very cool! It feels a little like old school QC updated for the current hellscape. Who could ask for anything more?)

Thisguy

As someone who’s been playing more Dungeons and Dragons lately, my definition of DM is “Dungeon Master”. I have a feeling this is not the definition used here.

Thisguy

Yeah, there is some phrases here which go right over my head.

Thisguy

Not bad. I don’t mind the odd “current events” comic. Though I hope QC keeps going in its own world. I need the escapism.

Thisguy

She didn’t call him a raccoon, she called him a trash panda, which is an insult to raccoons despite them not being pandas. And since she’s being insulting to him in the first place, calling him the wrong animal works fine.

Ursus Ridens

Hey! The new project looks interesting -- but face it, we get enough about pandemic pounded into our heads. We _need_ that plague-free alternate Northampton (alt-hamp?).

I am glad to be where I am now. I know that if I was in my previous living situation of a few years ago and told to shelter in place, my Roommate would have...mysteriously vanished about three weeks in.

Actually, masks (or bandanas) make all others safer when you're an unknowing carrier spewing viral contagion where ever you go.

Definitely enjoying this, really hope you do more! I kinda wish comics were like series where you could just get a whole season at once and binge it but I suspect it's better to have the constant release and feedback from audience to help steer it as it goes rather than release like 100 pages sight unseen. Sorry, thinking in type, I'll hush.

Huh, what would QC be like under a COVID quarantine? The AIs could walk around freely, disinfecting as needed, while the humanoids would be sheltered-in-place. That would change the dynamic! Sorta Stanislaw Lem?

Cool. Whatever reader you're using makes these very small and difficult to see on Chrome (and increasing/decreasing page magnification doesn't help.) Is an alternate viewer available? I ended up copying the images and viewing them in Irfanview. Thanks!

It's looking really really good. the theme is just perfect for this pandemic tendency... Just one question, why is that your chars have to always be either gay or something related?, just wondering, I mean I have nothing against it, I just been noticing more and more that almost all of the new characters have this tendency, maybe Im wrong.

Thank you! I have the same thought all the time reading QC: it's just weird pretending the timeline going on without the pandemic. This somehow relaxes me.

A. Tom Nook is unfairly demonized. The loans are interest free and you only have to pay it back if you want the next upgrade. B. Half a million? Oh, my sweet summer child. Just wait until you get to the basement.

David Howe

Tom Nook gives -normal- trash pandas a bad name. He makes you pay 10Kbells a pop for house site kits... and AFTER he has sold the site YOU prepared to some poor sap YOU have to fasttalk into coming to your island, you get back less Miles than it cost you to go recruiting...
