Easily my favorite line in the whole thing.

I love the idea of Maria’s older boyfriend turning up at her school full of girls and just verbally damning all of them. It’s so Maria and it must have made her feel so proud, while at the same time highlighting so badly how she didn’t really have the family to turn to instead

Totally worth the wait!

Bjorn hipdeep in horrible tiny people takes me back. Mad props to Gulliver, horrible tiny people in clusters = lemmings with attitude.

I’m kind of hoping this comic ends with Bjorn <3′s Maria

I knew a girl like teenage-Maria once.
I helped her with her problems, and then she turned twenty… twenty-one… and twenty-too-cool-for-you.

A comic that draws upon memories of the reader as always. Such a bittersweet plot you’ve managed, keep it up!

At this point of the story Tina is no longer in school, at least not in that one since Maria is about to graduate. At least I think so since she (or Björn in her place) applied to Konstfack. So no gossiping about Tina. It’s probably something random.

Ah yes high school was indeed a horrible thing.

Are the gossiping girls in then penultimate panel simply standard teenage gossips, or is the “Did you hear/Oh my gawd” an indication that they are gossiping about … Maria? Tina? Michael Jackson?

Oh man! I went to an all-girls’ school, too *shudders*, which means that everybody was pretty shorts…and I was 5’10″.

I am saving this one.
