I've realized "Roko and May" would be a classic buddy movie, never mind shipping them: "She's a tough-as-nails ex-cop who left the force to work for robot rights. *She's* a down-on-her-luck ex-con with a foul mouth and a heart of gold. Together, they fight for justice!"
*snicker*
how come you don't have to censor robo-boobs?
Probably for the same reason no one censors mannequins in fashion stores if they're undressed.
I always wonder how May came up with a few million as the baseline. The cheapest fighter jet in the US is a F-16 fighting falcon that costed $18M in 1998 ($27M in 2017).
Back when she was just a hologram, she told Dale that it was $750 million.
I want a beep boob shirt. Anyone else?
It will be read as an instruction and lead to stabbings. Peep boob would also be read as an instruction, but no one needs to be instructed to do that.
When do we get this shirt in the store, Jeph? :-) I can't wear my Bearmonster forever...
Can't have it. Too tempting to the robot moths.
I wanna see what goes into the whole 'This AI body comes with a nose and this one doesn't' thing. Like, is the nose extra? Can you still enjoy tea without a nose? The people need answers!
it's an aesthetic choice! YOUR NOSE IS UP TO YOU
The technician seems like a pretty ok guy
He's pretty fly for an A.I.
I like the attention to detail that Roko refuses to look at what's happening because she's squeamish. Good continuity..
Roko in the last frame looks exactly like the single sensible member of the gang of lunatics in the middle of the Edgar Wright heist movie, right before the reveal that he/she is actually the biggest lunatic of them all.
Nice to see May all happy in the last frame :)
HA!
Is good to see someone not geting judgy with May
Was at an art opening this evening, and ran into a person right out of the QC cast. I mean, she didn't go "loo LEEE loo", but she had everything else down pat.
The pet reindeer too?
Dude! Sweet!
Sweet! Dude!
HOT
I like his attitude
Hands up if you spent ages combing the background for some tiny detail because you misread what Jeph meant by 'zoom'
What kind of dog is Ollie? what happened to your Pyr? i lost my Pyr (Janie) 2 years ago.,

Jeph, isn't that your hat?
I'm just wondering if this whole project of Roko's is her way of compensating for her own experience. Like, 500 people haven't already thought that, yeah.
Repairbot is clearly an ex Team Rocket member
Is she on the phone? Or just holding up her hand to give Mae privacy?
I'm going to say privacy.
I like this bot
Leea-ving AS A JET PLANE
I love you for that.
Every once and a while I am amazed at the way this comic has transition seamlessly from being about a lonely indie rocker in his early 20s to being largely about robots fighting for social and political rights. It's awesome.
It's never about the destination, but the journey.
One question I've always had. When an AI gets a new body, is it customised to look like their old one, like Roko? Or are they set designs like a car? Do they freak out when they see another AI that looks just like them, in the same chassis, or is it just a passing "Hey, looking good!"?
I've always figured it depends on how much money you spend. Like, you can have the off-the-shelf Steve-brand body, which looks like all the other Steve-brand bodies, or you can have something a bit more customised if you're prepared to pay for it.
The look on Roko’s face in the last panel (mainly her mouth) reminds me SO MUCH of Spookybot when they’re regretting rummaging around in Bubbles’ head a few months ago.
I like Roko being considerate and deliberately covering her view of the deconstructed (and declothed) May. Then again, who knows, she may be squeamish about the sight of disassembly, especially given her recent experience.
aaaand that's what I get for not reading the footer text.
I want Repairbot to be part of the cast
Just slowly replace the whole cast with robots
Those two seem good together.
Wondering why some AIs have noses and some don't... Not that there's anything wrong with that...
I wonder how the olfactory systems in the bodies work. It might just be the art style but it doesn't appear that even AIs with noses have actual nostrils.
Wow. I mean we always knew May's body was far from top of the line but I never figured it was THIS bad. lol
Looks like an AI version of Jeph?
Perhaps a robot hookup is in order?
Wouldn't do to have your advocate faint in the middle of your diagnostic.
Why didn't they go to Bubbles and Faye?
Good question
I love the look May has in the last panel; I feel like her and Repairbot (He doesn't have a name yet, so, improvise, adapt, overcome) would be good pals.
I think he looks like an Erick.
Oh god, don't encourage her
I love Roko more and more every day
She's very well bred. (I'll go quietly, occifer Raccoon.)
