Christmas in the Far Out There Universe – page 18
First off, I need to take a second and remind everybody once again that the version of Layla’s Mom we’re seeing here is NOT who was introduced back in the early pages of this comic. An awful lot about her character and her relationship with Layla has been retconed since then, which you can read about again here.
And speaking of the rocky Layla/Pattie relationship, I like the similarities between the two in this page and the last one. You just KNOW Layla got angry with Pattie for saying that, but it’s hardly any worse than her stepping all over Trigger explaining which robot parts he used.
You know, I really need to a series of flashback comics with Layla, Pattie, and dear departed Eric all together, just to explore this family dynamic more thoroughly.
(Historical Notes: Okay, so I got so sick of always saying “I gotta remember to go back and add a link here” that I just went ahead and loaded the relevant extra Voting Incentive image to the media page and linked directly to THAT. I should probably still remember to come back and replace that link with the actual Voting Incentive Gallery one once the Gallery exists, but at least now readers have something to actually read in the meantime.)
