Totally not a robot.
I wonder about the hood though, is there something about his ears?

I guess without his hood, he looks more conspicuous than with it. Or maybe he is really attached to it because robot has one too.

I remember Shadow2's look is a reference to some video game character, just in the fashion Robot is to some Left for Dead zombie bloke.

Shadow 2 looks almost exactly like the Evil King Stan from Okage (aka "Me and Satan King" or "Okage: Shadow King") but I'm not sure if that's intentional or not. If it is then I would be stoked because Okage was an amazing game. In other news wow, I need to watch less House because my immediate thought was that one of Jones's patients must be experiencing a cardiac event and she is being paged to oversee the resuscitation.

@ zbeeblebrox Ahahaha. your Alternate Ending is hilarious! At first I thought she was backing up her hard drive (cuz she's a robot after all) which would be funny. Then I realized she's backing up like a truck, which is funnier. ;D Oh Jones, why u so funny?

Jones looks slightly annoyed in the last pannel. Like "I thought I fixed this already".

Maybe it's her pager or cellphone?
Anyways, shadow having a bear for a teacher sounds pretty cool for sure. I'm imagining a big hairy guy who is probably wise in the ways of life and all that. Might want to watch out for his temper if he has one.

I just want you to know that there was an ore hauler backing into a parking space outside when I clicked this, and also that I sprayed soda all over my work computer laughing.

Pfft, Jones isn't a robot!
She's a truck that's backing up.
EDIT: Dang, someone else already made that joke.

Aye, refer them to Jones. It's just like telling them to send an official letter of inquiry to Chang'e ol' husband - but more polite. Then I realized she's backing up like a truck, which is funnier. More like a tank, methinks. ;D Oh Jones, why u so funny? She's pretty much " Mary Poppins and Terminator in one fine shape", and with this love of understatements, too. How could she not be? Also, Jones more or less exemplifies Tom's inclination of teasing us readers, especially now that, at last, everyone knows what she is, so...

What's with Jones being all strict about Annime naming Red, just to tell her it was ok right after? Also, Shadow 2... 2 - The return of DAAAAAAAAAWWW!

I remember the solution to Shadow becoming a three dimensional strand of goo was to put him inside the hoodie. I think it's essential to his ability too stand upright and not have his head start peeling and drooping down.

Funny. I have a washing machine makes that exact sound when it finishes.

I think it's essential to his ability too stand upright and not have his head start peeling and drooping down. Nope. He's wearing the hood so he can be just like Robot. Nobody ever hinted at it being a solution to anything, he probably just wanted to wear people clothes. Related, I just realised that Shadow's clothes were most likely donated by Andrew. And that is adorable.

Also, evidently Antimony is still affected by her little ether-walk, since she continues the series of cute expressions. ^_^ Over 1,000? I think one can be meta-ified: "meme meme is meme".

"A very bright young man." I see what you did there, Jones. ಠ_ಠ Okay, I think I need to go back and reread everything Jones has ever said with the new knowledge of her status as the ultimate master of sarcasm. There's probably scores of incredible puns we missed back when we thought she was humourless.

I meant to type "silly meme is silly", but then thought - honestly, would it be that much more tautological to?.. Not yet I hope, I would not enjoy having to deal with retarded, sexist and homophobic nerds of the worst sort. I don't see why you're jubilant then. There was only one young slash genius of the best sort on my memory, and it, mmmmm, didn't end well. Fin-stabilized stakes continued to fall on the little lonely grave for several hours. We're such awful people. And while i can guarantee only one nerd too stupid to understand the greatness of New Science ( New Math, New Thermodynamics, New Optics, New Biology...), here's probably a lot of this awful sort. After all, it's kind of hard to imagine Gunnerkrigg fans as the people used to have everything spoonfed to them, isn't it?.. ;D "A very bright young man." I see what you did there, Jones. Well, of course that, too... Okay, I think I need to go back and reread everything Jones has ever said with the new knowledge of her status as the ultimate master of sarcasm. Added note: hell of a poker face!

I read that as someone spending an afternoon throwing lawn darts at a headstone. Was simultaneously baffled and intrigued.
