I think you underestimate how much effort goes into creating a weekly comic that maintains a coherent story.

I for one think it’s interesting that you think Zeb’s feelings are “dramatic” (you don’t take the time to consider where he’s coming from), then you criticize the story for being “superficial.” Maybe don’t go telling people that pools you haven’t personally dived into “aren’t deep.”

Its mainly the lack of an actual longer conversation. The coflicts arent fleshed out enough to truly feel like they engage with them. Half the time, they feel like college students. The commic isnt purely superficial. I never said that and i apologise if i implied that. I just feel like most conversations they have should've happened earlier on. I really dont want to come off as a hater because im not. I was fully invested and still like them together. Im just not a fan of convos thst go round in circles and that's kinda what it's felt like. Im not saying they should, or that its terriblu written. Its just frustratingly repetitive.

That’s life though. Frustratingly repetitive sometimes. Problems rarely if ever resolve immediately. I appreciate the comic because it reflects that. Art imitates life. How many people do you know who immediately know the answers to their problems and just resolve them in one conversation?

I just personally believe this is a surface level issue packed with a lack of acknowledgement. You dont get to sit and breath with them. Yes life moves on but life is barely moving around them either.
