      Are you sure you want Tip’s mojo in the VR world?

      What would Wilkin’s avatar look like?

        His wolf form would be appropriate since he is a dogs’ dog.

        I’d think he’d look exactly as he looks in meat space except either with better cloths or more funky.

        It would just be himself. Tip doesn’t really want to be anyone other than who he is.

      I’d say only the dead were immune to Tip’s mojo, but we’ve seen U.N.I.T.Y. react to it and him.

      I assume that you mean Lovelace, since Dr. Lee has already been shown to be happily susceptible to both Tip’s and Artie’s particular mojos.

      Based on whom Lovelace has fallen for in the past (Narbonic: Professor Madblood and the Doppelganger Gambit, Professor Madblood and the Lovelace Affair, and Professor Madblood and the Everlasting Ices of the North), she’s got a thing for geeky programmers who are polite online and who can optimize her code in just the right way; I’m not sure anyone’s mojo can compete with that. ;-p

    Awesome sex isn’t the same thing as real love, Nick. One doesn’t preclude the other.

      Here’s to awesome sex and real love. And to all of us who aren’t getting either.

    You know, a good deal of the problem could be solved by dating a bit over VR.

      They meet in VR. Dr. Lee’s avatar is a 30′ combat robot. It is awkward.

        He could be Garuda to her Mechagodzilla! 😉

          Oh thank god, Garuda is a part of Mechagodzilla. For a second there there I thought you were shipping kaiju

    So he did find out about Virginia and Tip and Artie…

        Missed that reference. Nick’s not still blogging, is he?

          Not unless he’s moved to a different site again. Last update was November 27th, 2014.

    ok, so maybe i’m the one who’s lost track of continuity, but:

    . this nick looks just like original!meat!nick, doesn’t it?
    . despite having slept with them, ginny isn’t very fond of either of the “sex machines”
    . dr lee has appeared virtually both as herself and as a fat beardy guy

    ….i think nick’s got a fighting chance. (or perhaps i have wishful thinking 🙂

      With Tip and Artie, it’s the result of their respective super-powers of attractiveness. It’s like having been drugged. With Nick, the attraction is more genuine.

      Good interview. And it’s good to see another decently-written webcomics review site emerging- I’ve missed that!

    Is it weird that I’m really enjoying this arc mostly because we finally get to see Lovelace away from Davenport and Madblood? I mean those guys are great, but it’s nice to get to know Lovelace as her own person.

      It is pretty cool, ain’t it? And she hasn’t escaped Madblood’s programming, yet.

    I don’t know if it’s just me, but the looking at the top of Nick’s head in panels 2 and 4, the contrast of his yarmulke with his hair kind of makes it look like he’s wearing a ushanka.

      On my first reading, I thought it was a black empty void to signify that he had his brain scooped out.

    Have to wonder…would Dr. Lee have looked twice at Nick if she hadn’t put his brain to use in Project Whirlygig? Does Nick think that? Is it true or false?

    • John Smith

      Probably not, but it’s clear she fell in love with him for his brain. The body would be sufficient for the rest.

        Why would she want Nick’s body? She’s got a terrific one of her own.

          I’m sure that he’d be useful raw materials.
