Dangerous Person posted:New Bad Machinery case starts on the 27th. I'm so excited! Bad Machinery (and the other comics about its cast like Space is the Place) is by far the best, funniest, and most human work Allison has ever done.

Where are you people seeing this? Nothing on the website mentions a new Bad Machinery. Plus, wasn't Robert Cop confirmed to come after Space is the Place? vvvv well, I'm happy for one. Saoshyant fucked around with this message at 16:14 on Jul 6, 2015 |

Facebook. Relevant bits: quote:No, I said the characters would be back, I just said I felt that it had to be under a new banner of some sort because they're getting older. But I think I have enough names for my various comics. No more titles. quote:Robert Cop is still on the slate but will be moved to its own special, discrete area of the website for a "soft launch".

There's still one more page for surprise tickets to America and/or space. And we still don't know what Bishop's surprise for the Board was going to be, do we

The twist will be someone finding the letter and it's the actual invitations from Bishop.

Do make it so he is kidnapped by greys and probed for all eternity. He isn't the worst kid, he's the biggest douchebag in the making I remember seeing in fiction in the last few years.

I'm definitely enjoying this whole turn of "Jordan accidentally saves the world through his superpowers of being terrible." Like, he only even got that ID card by being so off-putting that Dr George decided to leave in a hurry. Of course it's kind of distressing in a karmic sense, but it's also hilarious.

I-- don't think he's saving the world. If anything he may be making things much, much worse.

I'm still assuming Ben Bishop intends to help aliens enslave the world via Tech Trendiness, because that theory was debunked then re-accused and then spun as a game and then revived and then turned out to be fake again, so of course if the story isn't over yet it still has to turn out to be true. Now Jordan's ruining that subtle strategy like he ruins everything. So maybe now things are about to get a lot more overtly aggressive? I guess it's hard to say whether that's truly an improvement.

Well, that was a non-ending -- very scarygoround. Alien Ben Bishop may come back later at some point? Who knows. Jordan sure didn't get his comeuppance.

John Allison posted:That's the last part of Space Is The Place! Thank you for reading! If you want to go back and pick apart the conspiracy, the story starts here. Next week there are six comics bridging this tale and the new Bad Machinery case, which starts on July 27th.

Glad to see the thread title is to be relevant again. I'm even more glad that Allison is going to keep focusing on Tackleford; Robert Cop as a little side project is greatly preferable to it being the focus, even if the period of said focus would've ended up being a few months before shifting to [superheroine comic that I forget the name of already].

I hope she's featured in this story. The Case of the Fire Inside was my favorite Bad Machinery story, and that was mostly Mildred and Sonny.

SexyBlindfold posted:I dig that apparently Blossom is going to be the Big Bad of this arc. "Angry, bitter nerd" is such an underused villain template. One of the best things about SGR is that it's willing to negatively portray characters that other comics, naming no names, would try to make sympathetic or "quirky." Fitting that Blossom would finally get her moment under the spotlight so soon after Jordan sleazed into our lives.

That is the rudest thing that has ever appeared on Bad Machinery, Bobbins, Scary-go-Round and/or any other works of the Allisonian canon.
