I speculate that a change in Tina's eyes is all the warning we'll get before Paul springs Tina 3.0 on us and on the cast.

And, if it is, i'd bet that Paul gives us more than one chance to notice before it's spelt out clearly.

I'm just checking here.
No, i'd say that i'm on the "Katherine is brilliantly sexy" page.

As my girlfriend who started med school in her mid-thirties was fond of remarking, "Intelligence is the ultimate aphrodisiac."

It'll be interesting to see how Kath's dot-connecting goes over with everyone (including Kath herself). Most others who find such connections between otherwise-unrelated subjects are typically written off as conspiracy-theorizing kooks. Fortunately, Kath is surrounded by those who know better.

You know, when the oily black substance gets them, their eyes turn all black? Sound familiar now? Other than that, the only other options I know of are contacts or Eyeball tatooing (owie... just.... owie).
Same goes for those possessed by demons on Supernatural.
Also, the Replacements in the d20 Modern universe.

I have my suspicions as to how Tina 3.0 would come about, but it might be a tad bit messy.

I've observed that the ultimate aphrodisiac is power.

No, only to those not intelligent enough... :/

Judging from the stories of men getting...parts...stuck in appliances, I'd have to disagree.

The news stories I've read do not work as an aphrodisiac. Well, for me anyway...

Careful now or you'll spoil the 2015 plot point that all human souls are amalgamated "demonic" entities. :P

Yeah, or the big reveal about the Generation of the Sixth Century.

Wouldn't want that getting around.

Too late. You just mentioned it.

Now that you've done that, there's no getting around that getting around.

It's not the first time in the strip that a professional archeologist spotted a kachina doll. Remember that time?
