Roland Jones posted:Actually, I think the question is, why didn't he just possess, say, Mr. Garcia, who came face-to-face with the dog while it was possessed. Also why it went for Jeff instead of Max or Isabel, etc. There's probably something behind all that, though at the moment I'm not sure what. You need to have a weak fighting spirit before you can get possessed. And Jeff, having just been bullied was the weakest person around.

I'd guess that Hijack can't take over spectrals. Would that make Mr. Garcia a spectral? I'm glad you asked, you see,

If I was willing to drop 10 $ on an Internet avatar, you bet I would take the "this is why we don't have world peace" girl.

HiJeff is out of the game, isn't he? He just won't quit the field. So the only players left on that side are Izzy and Ball Golem. She could easily roll over herself.

The rules for hitball seemed relatively simple the first time they were explained but they seem to generate a lot of confusion.

The two people who won't quit the field are RJ and Ollie. Both got hit and both are out but neither have left the field yet.

"When will we get to Fishman Island?" was a thing from Ennies Lobby until, well, Fishman island. So two years, in story and about four in real life. e: Cody spends the next three weeks just screaming "JEFFU!" over and over again while running back towards the field.

You can probably compress hit all to like 8-10 pages. Zack needs an editor.

Like, this is half-rhetorical and half-serious; so far the comic has been entirely dealing with various spirit issues with seemingly no connections between them beyond the kids and Spender; we haven't even had the same non-tool/possessing ghosts show up in more than one arc, outside of the brief Forge, Doorman, and spirit rabbit cameos.

HItball seems to be mainly about characterisation.

Bell_ posted:gently caress you all for wanting this arc to end quickly. We manage to get a bit more characterization from Ed, who for a bit seem just like the one liner of the group. We saw Issac's insecurities before hitball. Even though most figured out, it was nice to see that Dimitiri does indeed have spectral powers. Moreso, we had more Johnny. I hope next chapter there is no Johnny at all to spite you all.

People who complain about story arcs being long should read Girl Genius and the Endless Castle to learn patience. Either that or get some Ritalin to treat their ADD.

Maybe if Zack updated 3 times a week instead of two and didn't skip like every 3rd update, we'd be at the end of the arc by now. Really though, there's no way around that.

Isn't Zack in college though? His comic is great, but he still has a life and everything which means he can't dedicate all of his time into making the next strip. Besides, isn't the main reason he's been skipping updates lately because of wrist troubles? Dude needs to take his time.

I was joking. 3 updates/week is the Gunnerkirgg Court schedule, and people still bitch in that thread about slow chapters sometimes.

The spectrals cannot leave Mayview because of the barrier, but Max's Dad suggested going to visit wherever they were before going there, and Max has no valid excuse to say no. There is a whole spirit-related association which Spencer is a part of, but we don't know what do they want nor what their plans are. There is another magical association which the first one dislikes but we know even less about them. There's Forge. There is that one spirit who possessed Max that Doorman knows about. There are actually rather a lot of plot threads left hanging, and although I am enjoying this arc I wouldn't mind moving along and exploring those. But this is a problem with all webcomics as a medium that you do not catch after they are finished, and it's saying something that my biggest complaint about this comis is that I want more of it.
