Now, who wants to see a pin up of Doubt in a 8 ball shirt?

I'm wondering about the possible significance of Calista's Doubt having bigger boobs than Calista and wearing a top that barely-only-sort-of-covers them.

Not that it would be at all unusual for a girl Calista's age to have hangups over that particular matter.

You mean the first panel? Didn't one of the GGs take that pose when they found Doubt in the cellar?

How about, "Good luck at the airport."

This brings up something I just noticed: Doubt's eyes occasionally show up as six "reverse pupils" in strip. I wonder if that means that Doubt is essentially "absorbing" the other demons in her collective into herself?

Yeah, I was referring to the first panel.

Bud's pose, in the strip I think you're referring to, isn't all that close.

That may well be the one I thought I remembered... I'll keep looking and see if I find one closer to today's.

I may be remembering Bud in a bunny suit?

Maybe this one? http://wapsisquare.com/comic/another-time-then/
or this one http://wapsisquare.com/comic/assigned-to-you/

It was established nearly immediately that Doubt's appearance changes based upon Monica's mood. The more M doubts herself - or the angrier Doubt gets - the "uglier" she gets.

When Monica is in full-on doubting herself mode, Doubt's speech snrut sdrowkcab.

Could be. I'd guess it's at least as likely that he might have chosen to portrat Calista's demon that way knowing full well that some Forumites were going to see an "Empty Child" reference. (Really, how could we not? A nerdy bunch we are ;) )
I've only ever seen one episode of the show, many years ago, yet even I thought of that reference when those two figures appeared. I think it's becoming as much a part of general online culture now as are the facts that time is a big ball of wibbly wobbly timey-wimey stuff and that the fez is a cool hat.

TRUE, but that's not why most males loved that show... it was for the scantily clad lasses that sometimes were clad even less than that... I'm totally amazed that some of those episodes even were aired here way back then..

That is what used to happen when P.B.S. got something from the B.B.C. library and did not look at it first.

If one didn't get into the good Doctor from some sort of initiation or 'beginning' then it becomes an undertaking of requited admiration not yet gotten to, to delve into the Dr. Who canon.

Can you imagine?
I've got to start from the beginning!...

On another, yet related note: I've got to get a girl into one of those 8-ball shirts.

Sh*t, I'll wear it if I have to...
