Strategically long blue hair! The band-aid over Adam’s lost rib! And, next, the Apple store! Genesis will never read the same after this. Witty, wry, wise.
Before the speculation gets out of hand, Eve’s blue hair is just a choice. I didn’t want to favor any particular race with Eve so I made her exotic- an odd amalgam of colors that could, in my mind, give birth to many hues. Adam is just a typical shlubby husband as is seen in countless commercials and sitcoms. A sad commentary to be sure but since this has become a cultural staple, it felt safe to go in this direction. So if you take umbrage with the artistic depiction of these two, I’m sorry. I made the choices so there’d be minimal offense. No nasty or snarky commentary is intended. Cheers.
I can’t help but wonder why Adam is depicted as pale, paunchy, middle aged, with a comb over, when he’s only been recently created and has been living naked out of doors in Eden. Eve’s insta-tan and prehensile hair seem nowhere in evidence on her primogenitor.

If she wants to use the computer for animal counting, she should keep in mind that Apple tends to ignore anything but big cats.

Justin, no explanation needed. I’m an ordained member of the clergy, and I love your strip and this one I found delightful.
No worries.

When Eve suspected Adam was cheating on her with other women, she just started counting his ribs!

The forbidden fruit was sex. Think about it, they “ate the fruit” and then they realized they were naked, and it mattered.

They only went with an Apple because the BSD Daemon wasn’t charismatic enough to tempt them.

Hmm, blue hair, brown skin — can’t see her feet, but if they are big, Yenny is her direct descendent.
