Why is Gabe wearing in a shirt?

In "The JoConjugal Visit", I thought Gabe was supposed to be naked.

When drawing the comic at PAX 08, Mike said he was going to remove it before he posted it.

I was sad to see that it had not been done.

    My guess is that it had to do with the computer dying. Rather than take the time to redraw Gabe, it was better to get the comic out as fast as possible.

    He had mentioned that he wanted to put JoCo in the open doorway of panel three as well. Perhaps he'll go back and make those changes later, once he sorts out that pooched computer.

    If this is the case, now is the time to order "limited edition prints" of this strip before he changes it! Quick! BUY BUY BUY!!!

    See, I didn't get that Gabe was supposed to be coming out of the trailer too. If he'd been shirtless it would have been perfect.

    I wish they had included Melissas bunny in the audience-screaming "make Tycho hug it" capacity

    Yeah thats what I totally thought when I saw it. But they had the pencil sketch done pre-panel.

    Is the redhead supposed to be Tycho's wife?

    No. She was originally...um...blonde (I think). Someone at the mic asked if she could be a redhead and so Gabe
    changed her hair color.

    Man, I wish they'd used a word we didn't know already. Cockmilk, fuckslaw and twatvomit have all been in the podcasts.
