Guys, don't let him trick you into thinking Spender is cool!

Zack's comment Also his talk has coalesced into normal speak. I wonder why?

I wonder if "THE" spirit was Max's Trashdrago. If so this would also explain why a spirit of that strength is being stored at the school. It also explains why Spender was surprised at seeing Max's black aura - before stopping and reminding himself that black auras are pretty common (so it probably isn't even the trashdragon, right?). I don't think Spender knows yet what Max's powers are like or who his spirit is.

He knows Max has the bat, and it'd be pretty irresponsible for him to store all those world-ending horrors in his closet if he didn't know which one was which based on the object. And Spender is a spaz, there's no way he wouldn't have that poo poo memorized.

^^For some reason when I first read through, I thought the dragon thing was gonna be implied to be something separate from the bat's spirit, with how it possessed and talked through him. I don't know whytheshim posted:Also his talk has coalesced into normal speak. I wonder why? Since people broke the code but others were having trouble with it and needing to go into comments to ask for help, he said all important lines would be done in 'accented english', on twitter. Also made jokes about the age of decoder rings being over.

From said page: http://paranatural.net/extras/wallpapers/ quote:Here are some wallpapers that you can donate for. Donating it completely optional, but it helps support the comic, pay for hosting, and to move towards being able to sell actual merchandise. If you’re unable to donate, you can still get the wallpapers here. Zack made it so you can get the wallpapers without having to donate.

Yeah, but the point of linking the page with that message is to encourage people to donate. Linking to just the wallpapers kind of defeats the purpose. People can suffer through clicking an extra link if they don't want to donate.

I love Isaac as a character. Barely controlled rage and a desire to cut loose and adolescent "proving himself" tough guy stuff, along with lots of power, conflicting with pacifism and trying to be a peaceful compassion being. It's a legit conflict. I dig it.

So the Anvil guy is on a self-proclaimed "good" side, with Doorman and the Bunnies, who are all opposed to whoever sent the pixelated dogs. They doesn't seem to be on the side of the "sunglass spectral", i.e. Spender / The Consortium, if not directly opposed. Doorman's side is opposed to the Magnet-snake's, who we don't know much about yet, but Doorman's in hiding from someone. Magnet-snake could be with the pixel dog's master, or there might be a lot of spirit factions. The Consortium is run by Boss Leader, and Spender says that they're a force for good. They put limits on what info lower level people are authorised to get, but it seems like Spender-level agents have a fair amount of freedom in their locations. From the single shady panel of the ghost train, it looks like it's protected by Consortium agents (or people in similar pyjama suits), and that's where the Activity Club is heading to collect Agent Day, so it looks like they run that as well. Isaac's possession has limited the info he's allowed to get, so it seems like the Consortium aren't with his spirit. Spender's also thrown Max's bat away before discussing how the spirit could kill him, so it doesn't seem like he trusts it, but it's also not clear if he knows exactly which spirit is in the tool so that might have been just to be safe. Spender seems to trust his own spirit(s?) though, and Boss Leader seems to be possessed, so presumably trusts her spirit. Isaac's spirit doesn't like Spender / the Consortium, but we don't know much about whether he's allied with anyone else. May have died trying to get on the ghost train. Consortium people have trained with Isabel's gandfather, so they seem friendly enough, but it doesn't seem like he's a member. Then there's the Cousinhood of Man who are "icky" vigilantes, who hunt monsters but seem to be on speaking terms with the Consortium at least, and asked permission to go into their area. Is that all we know about the spectral / spirit groups?

Speaking of the guards, I think they might be students from the dojo. I thought that they might be basically the spectral equivalent of freelancers, being spectrals but not being part of the Consortium, although I think one of them was in the Consortium dream-HQ.

So re-reading the comic waiting for an update and I noticed something that I'm looking too deep into I'm sure. http://paranatural.net/chapter-4-page-9/ On this page the lamp talks to him http://paranatural.net/chapter-4-page-10/ On the next page, the spirit of the lamp is in his room chilling? He doesn't want anyone else in his room, even the boss lady. Is he hiding something else? Another him or something represented through lamps?

Spender's powers are almost 100% some sort of light manipulation, so I'm pretty sure that's just him talking to his spirit.

She is indeed one dude. https://mobile.twitter.com/paranaturalzack/status/390278888447696897 Always Remember to stalk your favorite comic makers twitters and tumblrs for sweet spoilers. Anyway shadow clone bunny is definitely gonna end up either Max's replacement tool when scrapdragon leaves him or his SECOND spirit if it doesn't leave him.
