I always thought Peridot was from outer space. I mean, since it's a gem that arrives in meteors.

Or maybe there's the typical boss stage near the end where they have to fight all the bosses they've defeated again.

In her mind, in the crocus, I don't know but her and Glitchmaster are having a conversation while she transforms. Anyway, are we still going to keep doing this song and dance of no one linking the newest page when it comes up? http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-650/

The conversation also implies the heroes haven't arrived yet. It's a flashback.

From earlier on, it looks like it's in the future because she remarks on how Glitchmaster would've just killed him. I'm hinging that on 'him' being Carrot and not NK though. http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-646/

OK Good. Was sort of worried this fight was going to drag on further. Does sort of suggest GM is still alive though.

Gamerofthegame posted:I really hope this entire comic isn't gonna be "But what if the bad guys WEREN'T REALLY BAD ANYMORE" Splashmaster wasn't really aware of what was really going on other than smashing things, and Noisemaster was pretty bent on wiping out Treblopolis, so honestly, who knows what the other Disaster Masters will be like.

And Nightmare Knight, of course, but that's so core to his character he barely counts as a villain.

Gamerofthegame posted:I really hope this entire comic isn't gonna be "But what if the bad guys WEREN'T REALLY BAD ANYMORE" The idea that the whole shebang isn't actually anything like what it seems and that the "bad guys" much like the good guys aren't necessarily bad/good so much as they are filling out the roles that have been cast for them, all to some unknown end. And while she may not be "bad", Rosemaster has still embraced her role as a villain. But seriously, "opponents actually just fulfilling their role and not being all that bad" has been as much of a running theme since the comic began (with gummy bear) as "allies are actually often just as responsible for the bad stuff as the opponents" (The Oracle, Cucumber's Father, Almond, etc.)

I think a more valid criticism, however, would be that there are better ways to do this than a MASSIVE SOLILOQUY. It is a touch ham handed.

It is a touch ham handed. I think that's what's bothering me about this scene. I don't want to sound petty, but... to me, Rosemaster kind of seems like the author's pet character at this point. She's beautiful, smart, strong, secretly benevolent, and she only commits evil acts because she's selfless and cares about NK. Hell, she's literally being bathed in angelic white light right now. It feels like I'm being beaten over the head with how absolutely wonderful she is. Oh well, at least the art is amazing.
