Fanservice
Leslie’s expression in the second panel scares me. It’s like he’s thinking “you gonna get raped” or something. Gives me the creeps.
I really enjoy putting my characters in awkward and weird situations like this, btw – and I hope you guys do too. Sure sucks I accidentally a coke bottle worked in 200 DPI instead of 300 on this one, though. Especially cause that last panel could’ve made a nice wallpaper/poster/whatever. I can always redraw it though, and 200 DPI isn’t too shabby either.
Also, this strip might be just a tad inspired by Menage a 3. The webcomic, that is. And also also, the lines in the background in the third panel are made by Skybase @ DeviantArt. I take no credit for it.

GAHH! I can’t un-see it!

What has been seen, cannot be unseen. You’ll live with this image forever now Skwerl. Never again will you be able to kiss another man without thinking about Leslie and Isaac. Sorry.

My feelings exactly, Rachel.

WOO! This is what we’ve all been waiting for! 😀

Haha! 😀 I knew this is what you all wanted all along!

O_O
Ehm… is Leslie dead now? I’m guessing the fourth panel is censored =/

The fourth and fifth panel are just Leslie being pregnant and having a miscarriage. It’s not that fun.

Font?!

Waior: I used Mighty Zero 2.0 for both this strip and the one before, instead of DigitalStrip, yes. I found the font at Blambot and realised I liked it more (and it’s also the same used by Penny Arcade), but for this strip I also realised it’s way smaller, mostly cause it’s not all caps (which is one of the things I like about it), so I had to make it one or two points bigger, but it’s probably still too small. I decided, just after I’d posted this strip, that I’ll most likely go back to DigitalStrip with the next strip, and use Mighty Zero for special occasions, such as the IM conversation strips. We’ll see.
I was going to ask what you all thought about it, but I forgot. I take it from your comment that you didn’t like it? x)

I like the new font. Or at least the fact that it’s not all caps, like you said. It makes the emphazised words more… well, more emphasized!
Btw, these last three or four strips have been filled with awesomeness – I believe you have won, if not all of it, at least parts of the internet several times now. ^^

Thanks Adam :3 I wonder if my part of the Internet is worth over 9000?

I thought it looked Penny Arcade-ish.
