Doesn't Paladin own Templar now though? Like Allison made Patrick sell his shares to her after she WoG'd him and threw the mug at him? I guess Allison gets to be the bearer of good news for once (assuming Paladin doesn't have things blow up in her face at some point, which I'm still hedging my bets on).

But then Al would have to reveal that she was working with Menace all along. If Paladin's hate for Templar isn't overwhelming, could be interesting seeing another insider on the main plot

I think she demanded he do that after the two year grace period. Probably should have added "let her out of her contracts effectively immediately".

For Patrick to assume "continue to squeeze Robot Leg Lady for two more years THEN let her out of her contracts because Allison didn't specify" would be pretty amazingly lovely but I don't even know any more Scratching my head as to why Mulligan didn't end the chapter after the dam scene, it just keeps crawling on.

Presumably he still needs his stock in Templar to find out who is behind the thing. Which is why he is getting 2 years anyway, so that seems like the reasonable way to take the statement. (So it'll probably have been meant in the exact opposite way)

New page, and I'm wondering something. IANAL but can't she just not patent her inventions? If they're not patented they're free for everyone to use as they see fit.

I'd think nowadays that this evil company would just try to steal the patent out from under her, then. Regardless of anything else, Paladin is hosed until Allison changes her situation, because that's how this comic operates.

Flesh Forge posted:I heard violins when I read this page It's tough making a fortune off of your work. And I'm as rah rah anti-corporation as the next guy, but corporations don't buy and suppress game changing patents because they want things to stay the same. Corporations do whatever makes them money. But, whatever. It's not like she doesn't have options. I say she should start learning Mandarin. And make sure the government knows about it.

If she puts a product on the market publically and unpatented then she has prior art claim, right? She might have to go to court against a rival patent attempt but she'd win as long as she was selling the product before her rivals filed. Alternately, build them, licence the devices out, have them self-destruct if anyone cracks the casing. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 14:43 on Oct 6, 2015 |

There are literally dozens of ways "by law I'm forced to sell the patents for my inventions to Evil Giant Corporation" could be solved.

"They're going to buy all my patents, making all of my work completely pointless. All of them. ...Which is why I'm going to work twice as hard and completely forego sleep to the point of probably physically breaking down! " What am I missing here? What motive does she have? "Money", maybe, but it sounds like she doesn't care (and judging by her fancy-dancy everything, she doesn't need money). I can understand wanting to continue to work on your projects regardless, but what is the rationale for working extra hard around the clock if she just said her work is going to amount to absolutely nothing in the long run

Well, she's a super-genius, so maybe she is hoping that she can churn out enough insane patents that Templar will have to either start passing them over or making some of them before it runs out of money?

That would certainly make more sense, but they're doing a lovely job of explaining that if so. Just like most of the things in this chapter!

Yeah, I thought Patrick owned Templar. So uh... what? Also, everyone missing the obvious. Just publish your patents online for free. Duh. She doesn't care about money do that. Like seriously, " i got the cure for cancer and making the world a better place but this businesses wont let me share my patents" Templar can't put her in patent jail. It's the dumbest loving thing.

Well, after the unrelenting awfulness of the story up until now, at least this is just kinda cliche. Maybe we can get a dialogue that doesn't feel like someone saying "LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY CHARACTER MOTIVATIONS IN ONE LONG CHUNK". Allison's totally due to talk to someone like a human being.
