Ground doesn't have brakes, it's not a car. At least not until I finish the blueprints.

-ahem-

I lol'd, but last time I checked, wasn't Penny the equivalent of Left 4 Dead's Witch or something?

I smiled, I like the kind of character driven stuff in this and I think it's just going to get better as we get more acquainted with them.
This, Penny Arcade and Boxer Hockey are my current 3 webcomics.

Hmm, I lol'd, but not as funny as some of the last ones you guys had.

Also, I find this Penny person highly creepy, as she seems to always take the forms of things that scare me.

What are those vertical and horizontal lines that always appear whenever Penny is around?

I think Penny is officially my favorite character after this (and this has nothing to do with that fact that I'm a furry).

Great comic overall, one of the best so far. The structure and pace just seemed "right"

Ok, I'm a bit confused. Why would the editor green-light something like that, especially when it's apparent she doesn't approve? Am I missing something?

A core facet of Penny's character is that she's immune to criticism. She doesn't understand why you wouldnt' want to look at a picture of Fillion slipping Lion-O the spicy sausage.

I'm sorry, but I can't imagine Lion-O taking it from anybody, not even Sci-Fi bad boy (AKA Sci-Fi heart-throb) Nathan Fillion. My suspension of disbelief is ruined, I hope you're proud of that.

Oh, and cool comic bro.

Okay, that I sort of understand. The part I seem to be missing is why the editor would go "This is a terrible idea, I don't like it. Run it anyways." Maybe I'm just reading too much into it, but I just fail to see why the editor would let that pass and not say something along the lines of "Wow, this is great, but I was thinking of something more along the lines of...". Of course, that would probably kill the joke, but the editor green-lighting something they know to be a bad idea ruins it for me anyways.

EDIT: Otherwise, great comics so far. I am really enjoying them.

Sharon accepts that arguing with Penny is a battle already lost. If she sends her away to do it again she'll just come back with anoter picture of Fillion borking something. The bigger question is, "why doesn't she fire Penny?"
