I think this story arc is fine. I write comics too (lame ones, yet vaguely funny, I'm told) and it's damn hard to switch from one type of humor to another. If the writer doesn't want a punchline at the end of 8 (or whatever) frames every comic, then let them do their own thing their own way.
I remember one webcomic that switched gears from the adventures of a bumbling fool in Half Life 2 to showing some of the remaining Combine soldiers mourning their fallen comrade, Frank (he died by a folding chair and a Gravity Gun, don't ask). Said story arc involved showing little Combine children, touching scenes of grief, Combine guys talking about how great Frank was...almost everybody hated it and said it was too sad to be funny.
After the comic went back to normal stuffs, everybody clicked and remembered that the Combine were evil, surgically-altered humans who served alien overlords. They don't even have kids. Once people got past the sadness, and remembered their sense of humor, that story arc suddenly got funny. All because people were unused to its type of humor.
So we should give this a shot, no?

There have been other female zombies before Lach. I meant just in that strip. I think. That post was a while back, I barely remember it, much less what I was thinking at the time. The new comic is lovely, though. I hope you get a break from work at some point, Big J!

I really must say, this is one of the better webcomics out there... I rank it just behind "gone with the blastwave" ...which I enjoy mostly because I often lament that art is neglected in webcomics, the humor doesn't translate well from it's origional language.
