So, how many of you caught why the line "Wow, rude!? Golden rule, Issac!" was brilliant? It took me a few.

Okay, yeah, that changes the reading of the sentence completely. Nice.

Syphilicious! posted:"Quads again squads again" is pretty much explicit admission that there was a fourth dude ain't it? Max, Isabel, Isaac, Ed. Quads! Dimitri may indeed be involved with the Activity Club somehow, but this sentence makes it clear that he's not a member.

PleasingFungus posted:I thought I got it before, but I don't get it now! Welp. Dimitri is not a current member but if he was then it would have been him, Isabel, Isaac, and Ed. He's pretty much stating that there was another forth member before Max and it's been hinted that Dimitri, the character we saw in like three pages, was it.

I'd buy a poster, but I'd rather see a poster of just the cool trippy landscapes that he keeps putting in the backrounds of walking scenes. I emailed sayin' so, too. Cuz like that's what I would rather buy a poster of.

New comic. Blah blah. "Grudge process" sounds pretty interesting. "Spiritual linguistics" suggests that he likely could communicate with Doorman, or anyone else who speaks that language.

Mr. Spender is pretty great in panels 2-5. Also, Isaac's facial expressions continue to be excellent. http://www.comicmix.com/mix-march-m...ics-tournament/ Good news: Paranatural managed to make it to round 3 of this webcomic tournament thing. Bad news: It's currently losing badly to Sandra and Woo, with only 38% of the vote. Voting ends tonight at 9pm EDT. Time to raise hell and annoy your friends to vote for Paranatural. Either that or abuse the poo poo out of the "donate money, get votes" system they have in place. I plan on doing the latter, because I love this comic and I'm terrible with money.

The fact that when I went to link that site with my Twitter account it wanted to be able to post tweets for me and a bunch of other privileges (basically everything but seeing my password) set off alarm bells - it's a random site for voting on comics, why does it need to be able to post tweets for me?

http://paranatural.net/chapter-3-page-44/ Max's sarcasm and Isaac's frustration are the best things. Sad news: Paranatural is out of the tournament. I blame all of you for this. Ah well, time to put all my votes into Cucumber Que-oh wow that lost to something called "Weregeek" oh my god this contest is such bullshit.

I can now see why Isaac hates Mr. Splenda. Dude's like the Tuxedo Mask of Paranatural.

I think we are kinda glossing over the fact the dude just caught a bolt of lightning and disposed of it like it was NBD. He didn't even shift to dodge or catch, just calmly accepted and got rid of it, with all the drama of going to the store for milk.

Well yeah that's what you do when someone shoots lightning at you. The bigger concern is that Isaac broke his vow of violence.

Isaac is hilarious, Mr. Spender is such an rear end but it is weird that Isaac is probably the only one that is left out about the mysteries.

From how it sounded earlier, it's not really that he's left out, but Isabel and Ed just don't care about any of that as long as they get to fight spirits and play with superpowers.

Well, Isabel just wants to fight. No one knows what the gently caress Ed wants. I think Ed wants an automobile with bagels for wheels.

You're glossing over the fact that Isaac musta been practicing in the mirror with an old copy of Speed Racer to pull off that reaction in panel 9. poo poo's uncanny. e: VVVV Yes that Phy fucked around with this message at 04:43 on Mar 19, 2013 |

It is possible to unredact the text in the last panel. Dunno if that was an accident or deliberate. Still, here we go.

Turned it into light, if the glow coming from his hand is any indication. And I think there've been hints in the past too that Mr. Spender has Light-based powers.

MikeJF posted:It is possible to unredact the text in the last panel. Huh. This, combined with the stuff Isaac listed off in today's comic (guys in weird suits? mooks at Isabel's place?) makes me think something bigger is definitely going on behind the scenes, and Isaac's ghost seems to be a part of it. Edit: Oh hey, I just noticed something: In panel two of today's comic, on the couch by Isaac's backpack, there appears to be a small, purple.. Mister Starchman? Mister Garcia was seen earlier in the forest and sneaking away after Isaac scared away the Sphinx ghost..

The uncensored dialog suggests that Spender isn't telling Isaac anything specifically because he's a medium, so it may very well be that Isabel and Ed do know something and Isaac is deliberately being left out of the loop. If that's the case, the fact that they don't care is simply another biter irony for the universe to torment Isaac with.

Of course, there's a recent page showing that it's foolish to think tool-wielders are safer from their associated spirits than mediums.
