Guest post by "Rachel N" I've noticed a certain symbolism in the dialogue balloons. Sarah's are always pink, tomboy Marta's are blue, and Irma (who's any gender she darn well wants to be) has a more neutral color. That's sort of what Walt Kelly used to do in "Pogo": there was a carnival-barker type character there, P.T. Bridgeport, who spoke in circus-poster lettering, and a deacon character who spoke in Old English script.
