Art says:

No one guessed Kevin was gay.

Looks like I win this round, commenters.

curse youuuuuuu

So_So_Man says:

should have posted my theory sooner. Oh well. Looks like JAB2 will be Jacqueline of All Blades, if pierced ears and long hair are anything to judge by. The not-Marbles character also seems to have Jack's goggles, so does this mean Jack has died? If so, why don't they have the Adamantium armor (assuming it fits, which I suppose it wouldn't because they are so close to Marbles in height)?

thatonedude says:

yay i posted first and why did it look like she was breast feeding. I mean you fixed the typo but not that???

and in the third panel did the goggles take a coffee break?

fixed, Joe

Guest says:

Bastard. I wanted to believe it was Jack's but the hair and the skin convinced me it was Kevin. It never occurred to me that the Penguin God was messing with his head to be a jerk.

Also, she was breast feeding. The baby was hungry.

hat one dude says:

and the headbands turn for a break after the 6th?

Art says:

Oh, and evidence that we did in fact set this up in advance.

Evidence A:
Kevin's Hair

Evidence B:
Chris's Mustache

Evidence C:
Panel 6

Aja says:

Well played, good sirs. Well played.


I love Jill's last line. XD


And thanks (again) for not dragging out a "romantic misunderstanding" scene. :D

thatonedude says:

I agree with aja i was expecting several frames of investigateing and what not. So thanks creater this toast is for you!

Rico says:

LOL OK, nobody guessed Kevin married the uncle. But my idea was still much more exiting than yours :-P
At least I was right with the child. But will the child come into a dangerous situation now, caused by Tsai? Where has she gone after panel 3?

Ocho says:

Just how strong is Tsai? What is the limit of her Alex Mercer esque stretching and strength?

Itsatrap says:

I'm kinda surprised that Jill isn't the least bit irked that the guy she could have married is now having... er, relations with her uncle. >.<

Ocho says:

Im kinda suprised no one else is surpised to learn that posts are gay.

Necro Ray (R.H.D) says:

Nice trick! Art!
We found out that the kid is adopted!
Kevin and Jill's uncle is Gay!!
And 1 question added....
WHO IS JACK'S FATHER?

<3 Rebecca says:

Okay, okay... okay.. fine. okay. Whoa. So the baby is his but he's just so excited he has to hug his gay-uncle-in-law? (that's kinda gay) and the headband jumps? k. awesome. and go tsai!

Zecc says:

So how does it work? Posts are gay, but poles and straight?

Opposite poles attract, so I guess that makes sense.

BrandX says:

Nooo! We need a reason for Jack to get with Tsai!

cwDeici says:

Aw shoot, I was so close (got the baby on my optional)... I even wrote that Jill's father loved him most in the world.

Being mostly conservative I always misjudge the loveable depravity of liberals...

Good one Art, well played!

cwDeici says:

What I mean is that my first guess was that it was her baby before I saw it, but I didn't mention it in my second and third guess, though I mentioned an optional of her baby being in the nursery (which would allow her to breasfeed) but given my first guess and that I was mentally optioning it might very well be her child, I feel I got that part.

But the relationship between father... errr man... and scientist-younger man. I really didn't see that.

Doesn't Jill have a mother? I always thought so, but I haven't seen her.

Wow, just wow.

I am happy for them though (I didn't mean to bring in my personal beliefs about homosexuality).

This is really a happy end for everyone! I can foresee Jack being a very happy man with Kevin and his father in law as great friends as well.

But now... Tsai will be lonely. Oh well, I'm sure there's someone for her out there. The blue elf is a bit creepy and I hope Tsai doesn't decide to be lesbian, but if she does I hope their relationship works out.

Marbles doesn't seem a good match for her. Hmmm... nah, Tsai is an adventurer. They settle late.

cwDeici says:

Hehe, btw., the desperate and urgent way he clutches her mostly to get her to leave immediately (with him) is very cute... like she's the only thing left in his life as well as the mechanical urgency of needing to leave. Sad, but cute, very moe indeed.

cwDeici says:

Hmmm, but then he just walks. Probably expecting her to follow soon.
Anyway I'm surprised he'd leave his other friends like that, Marbles, the blue elf, the creepy artist, other people...
He really loves Jill to be so shocked!

Pizzasgood says:

cwDeici: Jill has a mom.

Also, re-read this strip. Kevin is married to her uncle, not her father.

bad easy says:

is it bad that I kinda wanted the household turned upside down by Kevin's usurpment? I wanted some genuine, out-of-character conflict, and then you guys go and explain it all away. tsk tsk.

Draconi says:

my guess is that thai didint want to be near the kid incase she acidentally kills it or something.

Kineth says:

RE: Necro Ray (R.H.D): WHO IS JACK'S FATHER?

This question has already been answered, Jack is the son of the king and queen.

Guest says:

Need a reason for Jack to be with Tsai? here it is.
They slept together when Jack and Jill just started dating and Jill is bisexual.
There's your reason and a very happy ending for Jack.

Art says:

The only problem is Tsai is not bisexual.

Art says:

If anyone is having trouble with paternity and stuff still, here is a nice little reference.

someone says:

I KNEW IT! Except for the Kevin's gay part.

someone says:

btw Art nice name for their daughter (Jacqui) I see what you did there.

Dualsaber says:

If there are any more major reveals between now and the end of the comic, I may just have to Internet punch you guys. Seriously, now I know how the Tsai reveal felt.

Necro Ray (R.H.D) says:

I am suspecting that Jill is lying Panel 9! Or Kevin isn't afraid to tell him that he is gay!(Thinking Jack doesn't know it!)

Guest says:

Hey, I never said it was a happy ending for Jill.

Guest says:

Ok, yeah. They are telling the truth. The evidence confused me a little but yeah, mainly the mustache thing. Her Uncle caught the "bouquet." When you look at it in the context of Her uncle being the next to get married I guess the other evidence is Kevin's hair is "fabulous" and Chris's mustache is supposed to be indicative of his sexuality.

...

I don't like the other evidence.
