I made a huge mistake originally in this strip, which I fixed in the redrawing for this collection. Originally, Tom was wearing glasses and wasn't going to show up again for several dozen strips, which is probably why I made the mistake. When I started Factor of 01, I wrote down some simple rules for the future of Jet-Pack Jenny. One of those rules was very simple, no one would be wearing eyeglasses. The idea with that is that LASIK-style surgery would be more commonplace to the point of being a standard procedure that almost everyone would get. This doesn't rule out someone wearing glasses, but they would need to be more remote or a very rare circumstance.
