I agree. I read your comment, went back and fully appreciated the detail Zed went to with just a frame of the comic. Also noticed the picture of Summer-time Than on a holo-billboard.

2015-01-22 03:15:02 +0000 UTCMaybe Patagon uses its own unique measuring system for "cup" sizes,which is different from other countries' systems,but I still think using the term "cup" for bras that hold breasts as big as any car they pass in the street is like using the term "car" for every motor vehicle they see on the street.

2015-01-22 02:13:34 +0000 UTCActually it looks like they are using Plato Voltaire-inspired system with levels and letters (as was already discussed before: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/creation?hid=1402105">https://www.patreon.com/creation?hid=1402105</a> ). At first it may look arbitrary (I mean: why compare bust circumference to person's height?), but if you'll think about it… it makes sense. Level 1 woman is able to hug herself while level 2 woman could only do a half-hug where she's squeezing her breasts from the sides. Level 3 woman's breasts hover near the floor (see previous page) but she still could still open and hold two-hinged door sizes without help while level 4 woman's breasts are laying on the floor in the “relaxed state” but not impair forward visibility significantly when raised for moving (think Alexis when she was caught by Chase and his companion). Level 5 breasts are almost as tall as woman herself while level 6 breasts are actually slightly taller than woman. Level 7 breasts are the largest size where woman still have any meaningful forward visibility (that is: where she could peek into her own cleavage and see at least a horizon… or the face of person directly before her) while level 8 breasts require some kind of cam (think Alexis on trip in Cowloon on page 79)… Of course large sizes no longer have easily distinguishable marks but it's the same for regular-sized breasts: it's easy to note difference between A-cup and B-cup breasts, but to distingush P-cup breasts and Q-cup breasts you'll need a tape.

2015-01-21 21:32:46 +0000 UTCI assume the City/State of Patagon is a Corporatocracy, so there is no distinction between the corporation and the state. Much like Cowloon, see P 78.

2015-01-21 18:56:23 +0000 UTCIn Patagon,bra sizes are classified not in "cups",but in "bowls","basins","barrels",and "tents"! The streets must get pretty crowded during rush hour,but the sidewalks must become impassable!I know I'd love to try weaving through THAT crowd,and getting lost would be a pleasure!

2015-01-21 12:30:08 +0000 UTCHaha, I didn't realise it wasn't considered a word. Lewis Carrol lead me astray.

2015-01-21 12:16:45 +0000 UTCIt's not even a word, but the famous phrase conveys the feeling extremely well ( <a href="http://goo.gl/erdoX6" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://goo.gl/erdoX6</a> ). I'm surprised that you've not recognized it.

2015-01-21 11:25:04 +0000 UTCIt's not clear if she's representing the town hall or not. Marigold and Su-Z Q were expecting person “The Person from Town Hall”, sure, but later they were talking about “Corporate Image” and “Corporate Mouthpiece Types” which kind of messes up things a bit. I still think Amelia represents the Town Hall, but I doubt that ALL these “random encounters” are with people from Town Hall, too. I mean: town couldn't be comprised just from people working at Town Hall, right?

2015-01-21 08:55:45 +0000 UTCI may have just been reading things wrong, but I got the impression that the City was Patagon. As Amelia is supposed to represent town hall I thought?

2015-01-21 07:15:10 +0000 UTCKhimru I admire your courage in using the word curiouser. It's such an awkward looking word; the vowel/consenant ratio terrifies me.

2015-01-21 06:12:34 +0000 UTCHmm… Looks like “local flavor” is not limited to just the Patagon staff. Curiouser and curiouser! Let's hope the whole thing will finally make at least some semblance of sense soon… oh, and familiar faces will be nice, too.
