Tutor less with your HOTNESS
(or not)
Sal really is just like Walky.
I think Walky is less likely to deck you for saying that.
Last I heard Walky was getting positively wonderful grades. He’s baffled by why anybody halfway intelligent would ever need to study here.
And then she punched him so hard he stopped being English and turned French.
Right in the crown jewels.
I wonder if that sort of thing happens to Canadians a lot.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL You sir, made my day.
First name basis with the teach eh?
Teacher’s aide.
Teaching Assistant, I believe. (or whatever they’re called)
Australopithecus ordochartus
Congrats, you stumped google.
Billie, Walky is like a five year old.
A five year old who’s getting more action than she is.
That…just sounds wrong. Chris Hanson wrong.
Kids today…
Miss Keener? Have a seat right over there.
That’s gotta sting.
Walky glows blue when there’s Ruths nearby.
So does that make Billie the Goblin Cleaver?
More like the Gobblin’ Cleavage.
Aw yeah, gimme five!
Eh, Billie’s girlfriend could beat up Walky’s girlfriend.
But can she beat up Walky’s sister?
Has Batman ever been beaten?
…yeah…kinda.
Depends how you rate the Joker’s approach to supervilliany. It can be argued that Batman has yet to accomplish anything more than acceptable setbacks against his carnage…
Arkham City notwithstanding.
Also, Bane during the Knightfall arc. FEEL DE VENOOOM!!
Can she beat up herself?
Yes.
Exactly… I accept Ruth as a confusing spanner in the works, but Sal will always be Billie’s real girlfriend.
Tough question. But in this universe, Sal is just an ordinary human, while Ruth is a Canadian, with the feral strength of the wild that implies, so I’m going with “yes”.
You… haven’t met many Canadians, have you?
They hide it well. The politeness people talk about? That’s just how it comes across when they’re holding back their horrific strength with razor-wire self control.
“It seems my tutoring has only caused you to not pay attention to a word I say.” “Sorry, what? I wasn’t payin’ attention.” “Precisely.” “…..What?”
The Top Ten Things You Never Want To Hear From Your Tutor.
“I hope you wash those pants before you return them to me”.
“Now, do you want a normal tutoring, or the Deluxe Tutoring with Happy Ending?”
“You want to do this the easy way or the hard way?”
“I got a call from the clinic, you’re going to need to get tested”.
“I’m pregnant…and you’re the father”
“I think I left my whip in your room.”
“Now if you open your book to page Q and look at number Y, bubble in 17 for the answer.”
“Turn to page three hundred and ninety-four.”
“My wife found out about the ‘tutorials’ and she set your bike on fire”.
“Now remember, cheating is not only welcomed, they’re allowed.”
THAT’S ALL FOLKS!
“Why is a raven like a writing desk?”
They both squeak when you stand on them?
It’s really unsettling to see a bunch of them flocking around your house.
Forget about the essay, let’s just skip to the oral exam.. – Steven Lynch from the song “Bad Professor”
“I think of all the education that I’d missed. But then, my homework was never quite like THIS!”
“Can not wait to meet your parents”
“I understand your frustration. I never really understood this myself.”
“Why are you asking me for? I don’t make this shit.”
“Oh no. None of this will be on the test. I just felt like wasting your time.”
I give up, here is your money back.
“Apparently, after all I tried to show you, you just wrote ‘Blah blah blah blah’ again, and this is your idea of *trying* to pass, no less. I’m afraid it’s time for the special snowflake to discover no one is going to miss it’s cute Rebel Angel-wannbe arse if it melts like any other.”
‘S Called being treated like an adult, Sallykins.
Didn’t Jason have yearnings for Sal at one time, or was that in Walkyverse? Had to have been. But then, why are they on first name basis here. If she’s ‘hopeless’, thats not exactly what you’d call solid qualifications for Teaching Assistant.
Regardless of any of the above: it can be hazardous to your health calling Sal ‘hopeless’.
Quite curious regarding what sort of hopelessness can give you better grades the less tutoring you have.
Then again, hypothetically it could be rooted in certain conceptual misunderstandings rooted in communication failures, which once adequately addressed would snap straight to better grades than the starting point, or at least not worse ones.
…Or I suppose she could have some unorthadox way of tackling problems which tends to give the correct answers, and which all orthadox ways pale in comparison to when hers is the brain trying to follow them, but that hardly ever happens.
*wonders what sort of state will be revealed*
…or this assignment could be on different material than the prior one, and this new stuff is harder for her, even with tutoring.
You are hopeless positive. You may need to go to a hospital.
Damn it Sal, if you had a montage that we all got to see then you would have done well on the test for sure.
I wanted a montage.
But we didn’t see a montage and so you get the bad grade you deserve.

Remember, even Rocky had a montage!
Yay! More Jason! I was wondering when we’d see him again.
“You’re positively hopeless. Here, we should schedule more tutoring. How about every night? My dorm?”
Is Sal’s tattoo a spider symbol?
Yes. We’ve seen it more clearly in prior comics.
Also, she’s spider-man.
As a TA I can not express how wrong this is. Bad Jason! Bad!
Jason, you’re an ass.
We skipped right over the tutoring?
I’ve been waiting seven months for that tutoring session, which eventually turned into waiting for a confrontation from Jason for Sal not showing up. 
It was scheduled to happen during that four-day timeskip, which caught us all by surprise.
Huh.
Never noticed Sal’s spider tatoo until now.
Was that always visible?
PS: Happy Holidays, everybody!
Yes. But it’s not so much a tattoo as the charred remains from her laser vision bouncing off a mirror as one made the mistake of crawling on her. The ash penetrated the first few layers of her epidermis due to her laser vision remaining there a second or two too long to ensure the spider was truly dead.
Sal’s an awesome character, but as a teacher, her accusatory brand of complaint combined with a focus on grades instead of learning probably won’t help her. Still, I don’t think we’ll see her flunk out any time soon (I hope not).
Unless there are more timeskips, the earliest we could possibly see her flunk out would be around a century or two from now.
Good point.
Somebody else may have said so already – but given his first reaction upon seeing her (a while back) SHE should have “tooted” HIM – if she wanted an A or a B++!!!
I can see how this kind of thing could happen. I remember when I went to college, I was in this math class where I would pay attention, take notes, do assignments and homework, AND I regularly went to tutoring (which had lessons that made sense to me), and even with all that I STILL failed it miserably! Sometimes you can do everything possible short of paying off a teacher and still fail a class.
Yay! Howard Philips is backs!
Worst teacher ever
For some reason, I imagine the Doctor voicing Jason in this strip.
Would negative hopelessness make things better or worse?
