Even Bud is taken aback, and Katherine's not even her mom... :lol:

Repeating the observation that Bud was similarly shaken by Mom Voice, that she lost her irises.

More like shaken by seeing the power of Mom Voice, rather than being affected by it herself.

I think I now know what Kath was thinking about way back here:

Give it fifteen years or so and I could easily become the major character of this strip...

I think Bud is still rebooting, from yesterday. Also, what is up with the third panel? Is it fan art? What is going on?

That style used to be affectionately referred to as "Shelly Vision," as it was usually featured when she was retelling a story.

I started looking for one, but can't find it yet (the archive is rather large, for this comic...) I'm thinking of the one where Shelly recalls what happened at the bar, when someone dissed "Native Americans", and Shelly whoooped his butt. The scene ended with Bud doing air guitar...

Not the one I was looking for, but I did find one just now: http://wapsisquare.com/comic/the-mind-of-shelly/

Given the title of this particular strip, you can see why we ended up calling it "Shelly Vision"... :D

Here's another one, for good measure. And this one is inserted into the page as a panel, rather than taking up the whole page.

Shellyvision - Paul does panels like that from time to time; there were two in the sequence where Shelly and Monica got royally reamed by Phix - one showing the start of their race through the streets; and one of kindergarten-age Castela hero-worshiping them, which was right after she interrupted Phix yelling at them

{The full sequence begins with the page before the first one i linked up there.}

Note that the two on the left end are Roxanne's parents - who had not yet eloped/been put on a bus at that point in the comic:

Image

{If Roxanne is in her early twenties, and Monica was in her mid-twenties - it's established that she was twenty-nine at the time of the calendar-machine arc - then that makes Monica [in comic-internal chronology] close to fifty in the current continuity.}

================

BTW - that link up there is to TVTropes...

She'll have to die to go back to being 29 again.

However, i was talking chronological age ... and Katherine is several years older.

To be pedantically correct about it, Katherine is several thousand years older than Monica is. 6300-and-some years older.

Granted, she was in stasis in a crystal for most of that time, but still. ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯
