It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Downhill.
I assume Eva's also been magically aged up at this point, which means the condition is catching.
Also, ick.
A day by day look at Chris Muir's Day By Day, punctuated by efforts to make the hurting stop.

Ickiness and psychotic worldview aside, one of the key ways Muir has really lost the plot is faces. He's always used libraries of stock faces and poses he'd rotate through, but they used to be simple cartoon faces drawn freehand, so they at least maintained character consistency. But sometime within the past decade he started cribbing faces (and bodies) from photos he'd find from who knows where, and badly tracing over them. Apart from the fact that he's terrible at doing that and rarely gets a result that isn't one degree or another of grotesque, the faces are very obviously from a bunch of different people. This means that Sam, Mari, Kiko, Jan and all the other women (it's rarely the men, come to think of it) have no consistency at all. It's like each of them is played by a rotating cast of different actresses, often swapping out from one panel to the next, as if in a stage play the main actress had to rush off and was replaced after the intermission by her understudy.
ReplyDeleteDamon is the big male exception, as Muir seems to be using different Black actors as his reference not only year to year but panel to panel.
DeleteHis hairline alone can dance all over his forehead over the course of three panels.
