      Welcome, everyone, to the new 910CMX Community Forums. I'm still working on getting them running, so things may change.  If you're a 910 Comic creator and need your forum recreated, let me know and I'll get on it right away.  I'll do my best to make this new place as fun as the last one!

    I'm thinking she is also struggling with her new found not so inner gayness.  At least that is what I assume the tightly closed eyes in the last panel is about.  Might be because she has a question she wants answered but I'm not seeing that causing the blush she is currently rocking.

    Well, that too; after all; Grace has caused blushes in pretty much everyone else at the party except Justin. But mostly, especially in the last panel, Diane is fighting against her inner nature as a super-genius-nerd. And I think she will lose the fight by the next comic.

    I consider more likely it didn't worked at all before the magic change. It's not like they did anything to it which could explain why it would suddenly start working.

    The problem with that theory is that the last magic change was hundreds of years ago, and doorknobs like the one in question didn't appear before the late 1800s. Of course, Dan may not have done any research into the history of doorknobs

    Sooo, the doorknob really does consume magic energy. Now, why? Is it JUST consuming it or is it using it up for something? Also, is it just consuming it and the wand really was used up and just didn't recharged as expected, or is it draining it?

    The doorknob that clicked so long ago without anyone in the basement noticing? (Especially Tedd?)

    If there is anything to that theory, I think it would be more likely the door itself consuming energy. It's bigger than a doorknob or a drumstick, after all. As to why, maybe building up power to open some sort of magical gateway to another dimension. Or to the PTTAOLUTASF. Or to the miraculously clean gas station restroom down the street from Salty Comics. Or Lavender's place.

    I guess it's too much to ask for Belldandy to come through that mirror...

    "Mall Girl" had hair that was slightly darker, so it's likely that Elliot is going with blonde this time. But I was more referring to the slightly different hair style--today's has shorter bangs in the front as well as the bits sticking up on the side of the head.

    Mall Girl does have slightly shaded hair in So a Date at the Mall, but in her last appearance before this one, in Sister III, she doesn't have that shading, and Elliot specifically said to Tedd (and Grace) that this was the pink-haired girl form he hadn't shown them before.

    BTW, I call the pink-haired girl "Nadeshiko". It's the name of a Japanese carnation, also sometimes called a "pink". And it's also the name of a gigantic space battleship captained by a woman with a gigantic... chest.


  5. I thought Elliot would choose the mall girl because she created that form at Ashley's request. As far as we know Sarah hasn't seen the mall girl yet, although by now she might have at least seen videos or stills caught by phones at the mall.

    And those aren't boots; they are loose socks. The idea is supposed to be to make the thighs look slimmer, I think. To keep them up, some Japanese schoolgirls are supposed to glue them in place. But are they really still fashion in Japan?

    Also ... she's leaning on wall. She wouldn't do it at the mall.

    Maybe Dan is thinking more "wallflower" than "irrational fear of yuckiness". 

    [Thought of this later."] I think that leaning against the wall opposite the mirrored door leaning on the opposite wall puts Susan as far away as she can get without actually leaving the room. We've sort of seen this fifteen years ago, when Susan, along with Sarah, Elliot, and Tedd sat at the top of the bleachers--next to the wall--for the Monday morning assembly at Moperville North just before Matt Cohen joined the cast to announce that school uniforms were coming.
