4000s

• 4075: Glitchy has two versions, which differ in the attire Millefeuille is wearing: one with a skirt and another one with trousers. It is considered a simple mistake. Later strip 4080: Yelling Bird 2.0 clearly shows Millefeuille in trousers.
• Waking up of Millefeuille in 4160: Disco Elysium and 4161: The Remains Of The Day has been rewritten shortly after publication.

“	An eagle-eyed reader pointed out that Millefeuille password-locking her memories conflicted with the (rather important, IMO) storyline about how Bubbles lost hers! So I rewrote those strips. When you've written four thousand comics, you're bound to dig some plot holes eventually! One thing I've learned is that it's generally better to rewrite than handwave, when possible, and I'd rather have slightly different jokes than a conflict in the logic of my worldbuilding.	”

• Claire's description of Pintsize bringing an opossum to the apartment in 4189: Goodbye, Friend had to be slightly tweaked. Originally, Claire said to Marten in third panel: "Faye was, and Pintsize had brought an opossum into the house so I don't think he really cares", which implied that the opossum could have been his reaction to finding out about Claire being trans. This would have been a continuity error, since Pintsize had already discussed it with Claire in Number 3185: Fleshy Bits.
• Due to a continuity error, 4560: Banishment had to be redrawn – Roko has been shown with her hair at full length despite strip 4508: Hair We Go Again, in which it is told that she lost it due to a printer accident, and 4510: Capping Things Off in which Melon cuts Roko's hair to fix the printer damage.

“	lol I COMPLETELY forgot Roko got all her hair chopped off, guess I better go fix 4560	”
