Yay for question-mark background in panel two!

Also, I suppose I could have mentioned it in the thread for the previous strip, but it really struck me here: I really like this look for Tedd.

The last person I saw with that many question marks arround them was Frank Gorshin.  Is this the start of Tedds supervillain career?

I tend to agree with Sarah, what Tedd is wearing isn't gender neutral.  The hair. maybe, but their clothes and accessories are fem.

If it's feminine, it's only in subtle ways. I could see someone with a more muscular build and a more masculine haircut wearing something very similar (perhaps without the wrist cuffs and with a simple chain necklace) and looking masculine.

I think part of the problem is our culture is so obsessed with binary gender that the range of what we acknowledge as neutral is very small (and the range that everyone agrees is neutral is even smaller, probably nonexistent).

Are you riddling us this?

I was expecting one of Tedd's friends to say something like "I don't get it. How can a hair style I've never seen you in before, make you look even more like yourself?"
