2 hours ago, Tom Sewell said:The story comic is #839, The Other Woman With Susan's Face. Dan put up the cover of the dye box in Sketchbook #401. It's Snazzy Hair Dye in Gloomy Gus Blue.
Maybe Dan has forgotten it's dark blue? Well, it still has blue highlights in the last Patreon pinup, I think.
I'm pretty good at archive diving because I've saved all the story comics, all the NP comics, most of the sketchbooks, and most of the Patreon pinups I can access, so I don't have to wait to get enough bandwidth to get to the next page. But you found #839 before I did, Thor. Have a cookie.
As long as someone tells Dan sooner than later, I'm happy. When someone points out a contradiction with canon long after the fact, we usually wind up with two or three comics worth of explanation, which usually sidelines the storyline for those strips. But since Susan mentioned her hair dye just last strip, perhaps we can turn this into a one-speech-bubble addition of, "Technically, it's not black, just a very dark blue" and go on with the story instead of throwing the whole she-bang into neutral for a week's worth of strips in a few months.

Someone should really Tweet to Dan and remind him of this canonical hair color. I'd do it, but I do not have nor want a Twitter account.

Here's the strip with the dye box:

It's hard to read, but the dye color is "Gloomy Gus Blue".

It should be, if it is based on the hair dye she used. Better archive divers than I can probably find the actual strip (shortly after Ellen zapped Susan for the first time) but we get a close up on the actual dye box which says something like "midnight blue".

All I got to say is "FINALLY!"

Considering "THINGS" almost exclusively involves one touching or one being touched by another person's damp and smelly parts, and how Susan can barely touch another person's typical parts there's no way to really tease out the specifics of her sexuality without mitigating her compulsive/phobic behavior first.
And something about EGS I'm sure I've said before is that it's astounding the amount of time the characters dwell on all kinds of sexuality, but none of them do much with their sexuality. All theory and no practice.
