First panel: Even though they're drunk, I don't think "Torloria's" is right.

Should be quite

Panel 5:
"...he just chose to started looking to the heavens."

I think it should be "start"

Also it might sound better as:
"...he chose to just start looking to the heavens"

Also Panel 7:
"Frog I choose your for your pragmatism."

The first "your" should be "you"

Riff says "produced buy the Anima Tapestry" in panel 7. Should be "by" instead of "buy".

Don't know if this was intentional or not, but... In the shot of Riff's notes with the year offsets &etc, at the bottom the word was cut off but it looks like an "A" before "lation." So not "dilation," and not the "dillation" that Maya was busting his chops for? "Dialation" ??

LOL. I am beginning to think that Pete wrote the 4/30/20 comic BEFORE he wrote the 4/28/20 comic in response to the posts he would get on the 4/30/20 comic...

http://archives.sluggy.com/book.php?cha ... 2020-04-30

Panel 8:
If we were to use the return remote right now? We'd ended up about *two years* from where we left.
should be:
If we were to use the return remote right now? We'd end up about *two years* from where we left.

Panel 10:
"what ever"
OK, I ended up removing [sic] from the transcripts, and I will leave this one up to Pete to fix or not as there appears to be some controversy:
https://oilpatchwriting.wordpress.com/2 ... what-ever/
contends that 'whatever' is generally the correct term, and 'what ever' is used in the context of time: "What ever became of that..."
If that is correct way to view whatever vs what ever, then Maya is wrong...

On the other hand, https://www.grammarphobia.com/blog/2018 ... tever.html states:
"Most standard dictionaries don't include a separate entry for “what ever.” The few that do say “what ever” is more emphatic than “whatever.”"
In that context, I could see how Maya's bitterness would be creating a particular emphasis on that phrase. In which case, "what ever" can be correct.... <shrug>

Second panel: It currently says "SHHH! Get down! I her more of them!" It should say "hear" not "her"

5th panel: it should say there'll (there will) not they'll (they will)

Second panel:
"...and it's effect on time."

should be:
"...and its effect on time." (without the apostrophe)

Actually, both spellings are acceptable in colloquial English.

Strip for 2020-Jul-29

In the last panel Zöe should be saying "As are your chances".
