[637]By the way he talks about Jeanne, I think Robot has been told the full story, or he knew it already and has been hiding it since S1. Also, Sky Watcher looks pretty detailed. Maybe (s?)he's an early model.

I figured it was Shadow2.
Kat looks a bit older, doesn't she?
So Robot looks at Jeanne's tomb with some sort of religious meaning? I guess that makes sense, as it was made by the creator of the robots.

Whoa, with her hair like that, she looks quite a bit like her mother. Her hair doesn't look that much longer than in Residential, I think it's just the overalls and the hair that are making her look older. Also, unless he's much lighter than he looks, that is some tough machinery that Robot's legs are made of.

Where's the chapter icon for Ch 24?

Kat looks a bit older, doesn't she? At first I figured it was just because of how Tom's style changed over the last couple chapters, but now I think there's something else. Also, did Kat figure out how to make such an awesome robot by herself or by studying Diego's first designs?

Looking pretty spiffy there, Robot.

Holy CRAP Kat looks older. Like, a couple years older.

So the shrine to Jeanne is actually her tomb, the place she's buried? Interesting.

Now, how'd they find that out? Where's the coffin/urn/thingy?

Well, tomb might not necessarily refer to where a body is buried. There are lots of places where I live where there are tombs, but no one buried there. It could be that tomb/shrine would be the same thing in this case, with the portrait standing in place of any actual remains. also, love the way Kat looks in this comic.

Anyone else think Kat was Anja for a minute? I was kind of confused for a moment there before it clicked in.

I don't think it's a timejump - Kat's still flat chested.
Am guessing it's just Tom's evolving style.

Tom, it's awesome how this plot thread follows the line between "sinister" and "cute". ;D I figured it was Shadow2. Cookies!

oh hey that cookies link, plus the fact that Kat built Robot a body, reminds me - we never did find out what Jones is exactly. Perhaps there'll be answers soon enough? Preferably in this chapter?
Also, noting Tom's comment, I wonder if he's planning on any sort of "Bicentennial Man" type of thing for Robot.

I am remind of this Flaming Lips song. Let's hope we don't get a robot version of Annie's "He's just a ghost" moment. That was saddening enough, I don't know if I can handle the emotional distress another time.

Kat's neck-and-shoulders area really resembles Jeanne's, now. I find that interesting. Ben

I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but has Kat always had that Exclamation Point on her bandanna?
Is that a Metal Gear Solid reference?

The previous bandana had a skull. Like the Punisher's, I think.

And I forgot about the eyes. We haven't seen Anja in a while, I tend to forget little things like that when they don't pop up so often. Kat's neck-and-shoulders area really resembles Jeanne's, now. I find that interesting. I think that might be because Kat has her hands in a similar position as Jeanne did.

Kat looks a bit older, doesn't she? She does. I like how both she and Annie have grown a bit in these past couple of chapters.

I don't think people are thinking flashback because of Robot's new body. Of course, it could have been completed before residential happened. The thing about time in the comic is there are no date stamps when comics happen, so there's really only the vague sense of time passage. It's GKC, not 24.

Flashback to when? A flash-forward (I'm sure there's a better name for it) would be more likely, considering Robot's body is completed, and as many have said, Kat looks a little older.
