        I mean, racial insensitivity aside, i wonder if there would be any kinda ‘heroes’ that’d paint their skin like green or purple to make it harder to identify

        Imagine all the memes that’d happen if there were suddenly superheroes that are all blue like the blue man group (or that skit from arrested development/tobias)

      The problem with people like her is that she’s got so much (undeserved) self-confidence that she wouldn’t ever challenge her own first thoughts.

      She’s perfect, therefore she must be right.

        Except that the self-confidence is also fake. On some level, Jennifer knows she’s poison.

        Maybe it’s that any self-questioning leads her down that spiral.

      Short answer: yes.

      Long answer: you can check if two characters were in the same strip by clicking on the tag, and then modifying the url to add another tag with a “+” symbol.

      So click on “jennifer”, and then change /tag/jennifer/ to /tag/jennifer+amazi-girl/

      Note that this can be increased indefinitely — you could also do /tag/jennifer+amazi-girl+ruth/ If the list of characters were never all in the same strip, you get nothing

        This is very compelling evidence. Is there an argument that she maybe never saw AG head on? Like maybe she only saw her from the back? Is that something? I don’t know how Jen justifies how Sal is a completely different race with a different skin tone from AG. I guess it’s good Jennifer doesn’t see color?

          To give some additional context and an attempt of a slight excuse for Jennifer, she had been drinking before and during the party that Joyce was attacked at, and she woke up abruptly after drinking whisky and energy drinks the morning AG carried her to the elevator on her back.

          That said, Joyce told her that AG was white and Walky told her AG was Amber, but she brushed them both off.

      Not only has she seen Amazi-Girl (as others have pointed out above me) but at one point Walky flat-out told her who Amazi-Girl really is.

      Jennifer being Jennifer, it didn’t take.

        To be entirely fair to Jennifer, I think “I’ve seen Amazi-Girl and she didn’t look like Sal” would be more compelling than “Sal’s brother says Amazi-Girl is someone else, and it’s not like a superhero’s loved ones would lie about something like that”. The combination, however, should be conclusive.

    Jennifer used separate level eyebrows. It’s not at all effective!

    I look forward to Jennifer exiting this conversation having definitely reevaluated assumptions she’s made, and coming to realize she was wrong about something, learning an important lesson about projecting how she feels about someone and snap assumptions.

    where’s that panel of Amber yelling IM A TRASH GOBLIN AND I LOVE MESSES.

    I get that there is some comic book logic being applied here with people not being able to -immediately- realize that Amazigirl is Amber but also god Jennifer you are so, so incredibly dumb.

    No Shot she thinks Sal, a tall black girl, is Amazi-Girl, a stocky white girl.

    I am very dense, but I only just realized that Jennifer is sold on the preconception that AG needs to be “cool” in real life as well. And, by her standards, Sal is the only cool girl in this dorm. 2+2=?

      Yeeeeeuuuup. thats the nail on the head. AG is cool; Sal is the coolest person Jennifer knows.

      And also I think people really discount that she *already decided* she knows who Amazi Girl is. ‘Already thinking you know the answer’ rows a lot of water irl with a lot of otherwise smart folks.

      One of the previous strips they were intogether she was like making some ‘nerdy’ reference and she was liek “you could’ve just said i’d rather die” so i dont’ think sal would be ‘nerdy’ enough to know those specific references

    My favorite part of Jennifer’s story is she’s met Amazi-girl, so she has to be under the impression that if Sal was Amazi-girl she’d be doing white face.

    Is Willis really going to do this? I’m not the biggest Jennifer Billingsworth fan, but is Willis going to make her, THAT dumb? Sal and Amazi Girl don’t even have the same skin tone, let alone body shape, to confuse the two. Don’t drag her down like this; she’s not a good person, but she still deserved better than this.

    When you take a solid lump of dumb and toss it into a bottomless well of arrogance, a Jennifer will appear! Or was it a mass of arrogance forged in the fires of absolute dumb? hmmm….

    I mean i’m sure she didn’t appear too much in broad daylight/having a full body suit and mask but you’d think ppl knew amazigirl was white. if not know that amazigirl and sal was literally in teh same room during that rally/should ask leslie lol

      Its extra notable given Sal is conscious about being darker than her brother.

Who should be the default doodle for Book 14?
