Comic for Friday, Dec 1, 2023

It took a second to see that this was two different events, displaced in time. Clues: Susan is wearing a hair band in the last panels, their positions have switched, Susan's bangs are shorter, Susan's shirt is lighter, they are talking about a different movie. Elliot appears to not have changed. Oddly, still needs pretty much the same haircut, like it hasn't grown.

I think the alien invasion is foreshadowing the three from the Griffin side of the EGS world.

Are we getting several comics with a brief update on what the cast has been doing since the last arc?

Jeremy & Max will need at least nine pages each.

At least. They are, after the main cast, the most important characters in the comic.  Might be more important than some of the main cast.

Susan and Elliot are still doing occasional reviews. This makes me inexplicably happy,

I think that this was mentioned a while ago.  Like the New Years party.

Do we know what time of year it is? Still winter? Spring? How imminent is graduation?

". . . it took place in high school. I was mostly thinking about how we're graduating soon."

They have already graduated.

No mention of new school activities, so probably the summer between high school and college.

Kind of sudden how that plug was pulled.

I don't remember if we have any more specific information, but think it's been spring in the comic for a little while now. Given that everyone in this story so far is wearing short sleeved shirts (even outside, as seen in the first couple pages), I'd say probably mid to late spring - so graduation is probably no more than a few weeks away.

I don't follow your train of thought, and suspect you're misunderstanding the comic. The movie that Susan and Elliot just watched prior to the non-flashback part of this comic was about high school, which got Susan thinking about how "we're" (we are = we will be) graduating soon. It hasn't happened yet.

I agree. I was either tired or distracted and misread her comment. They have not yet graduated. Your timeline looks accurate.

It's Schrodinger's diploma.  They have and have not graduated.
