Awww yes. Finally, more of the robot cult. The best part of this webcomic.

Robot had been hella creepy ever since his second appearance, but I think he's a good guy.

I'm sure he means no harm, but he's getting very dangerous. I mean, he even freaked out Shadow2. Yes, he's their friend and he'll help them in any way he can, but creating a religion based on unwanted worship of and complete subservience to The Angel is just a powder keg waiting to blow.
What I find most interesting about this is how The Angel, in the robots' mythology, is not at all a benevolent entity, but more like an angel of death. I still find it odd how Robot ever got to that conclusion, given how well he knows Kat personally.
I have no idea where Tom is going with this, but I'm guessing very forceful attempts at conversion and/or the Court finding out about it, leading to dissension between the Court and the robots. That or he's gonna play it more personally, leading to a huge row between Kat and Robot and Kat being torn between her desire for research and not wanting to fuel the robots' fanaticism.
Turns out that, hey, maybe there's a very good reason why S13 was initially disassembled.

S13 is actually the twelfth active S-robot, since S1 is the deactivated old-robot grandfather of these models.
Considering the themes of these chapters, they might represent the apostles?

Meh, that sounds really dumb when it's written out but I'll post it anyway.

Hey neat, I bet Tom will sell poster-size prints of the double strip. Very cool idea.

So instead of doing homework, I decided to mash the two images together.
They don't quite match up perfectly, which is disappointing. This is as close as I could get.
