We should never assume anything in Skin Horse, I suppose, but I think we can assume she didn’t “take” the job as a water cooler and she didn’t have a life before being a water cooler. On the the other hand we don’t know everything that ever occurred to her while a water cooler.
She, too, could be the creation of some mad scientist, I guess. (It was said awhile ago that she has some relatives working in the Skin Horse restrooms, though.)
Serendipity.
An acquaintance mentioned you in a FB post, I was able to find you. I’ve started reading from the first day, I should be caught up soon enough. Your art is wonderful.
Yeah, definitely read Narbonic. This comic doesn’t have plot holes, but a lot of offscreen character development happened in Narbonic for certain characters before they started Skin Horse.
Oh dear. A rival for Unity? Might Sweetheart get her zombie back? Is this series entirely too weird? I don’t know! But I’m reading it again tomorrow, so the answer to the last is probably no.
Well I was wrong yesterday I guess – I’d hoped that that Bubbles was a One-Zombie-Gal. Poor Unity. But as someone said yesterday, look out Bad Boy robot – once Unity hears about this, poor Killotron. Destroy indeed.
That lame joke occurred to me, too. If we don’t both run and hide, I could ask Shaenon and Jeff why he wasn’t numbered something like 42 to keep those type of thoughts to a minimum.
He’s a powerful rebel who plays by his own rules! The only that could ever briefly tame his heart is the love of a good woman. But WHO could ever be that woman?!
Even Bubbles likes bad boys, apparently.
Her starting dating standard is Unity. I really don’t see this a far of a stretch.
Do we know that Unity is her first? Maybe she dated while she was still a water cooler.
Like Sweetdaddy, for instance.
Which fits nicely with the premise.
I don’t know if that was a date or a one-night stand.
Her starting dating standard is Sweet Daddy. Back when she was still in the body of a water dispenser.
Well, we really don’t know anything about her life before she took that job as the water cooler at Skin Horse…

Yeah, I think she has a fetish for people who destroy things based on random whims.
Might have wanted to word that differently.

Do yourself a huge favor. Click on the link to Narbonic when you get caught up.

Absolutely. Go back to the beginning and read Narbonic. Not only will it help you understand Skin Horse, it’s great fun on its own. Li’l Mell, too.

Geez. You destroy one lousy guest.
it’s even worse when you Destroy one of the more high quality guests, then they’ll never let you hear the end of it.
I suppose that means #1 has his own plans for #2…
Careful there, Bubbles, or someone might end up disassembled.
By the way [[again]], this morning in my GoComics e-mail, I got *two* Skin Horse comics, yesterday’s and today’s.
I can see how Bubbles would be all bubbly for #2. He/it has such expressive glowing red optical sensors.
Killotron #2—guy or gal?
Possibly. Relevant?
Well, Bubbles was previously attracted to girls—or at least Unity, who’s a girl, I’m pretty sure.
“He is a machine of dangerous passions!”
Did Number 2 lose his toque?
Probably got swiped by someone looking for the secret rat cook…
Rebel without a cog.

I think Bubbles wants to do No. 2…
(Running and hiding, now.)
That lame joke occurred to me, too. If we don’t both run and hide, I could ask Shaenon and Jeff why he wasn’t numbered something like 42 to keep those type of thoughts to a minimum.
Scenic New Jersey! Come for the pine forests and non-human safehouses, stay for the whirlwind robot romances!
Looks like I was wrong about Bubbles’ expression yesterday.
Oooh, this is going to get complicated, isn’t it? (*shakes head*)
Thank you both for suggesting that.
It’s a good thing I’m retired. I will be able to find time to read both comics.
