You guys are harsh! I don't mind the millionfish comic though yes- it has some major issues. The second comic is far superior, though, given that I support having Jolyne hook up with just about anyone other than Anasui. I like Diver Down at least.

I'm a pedant and I get my kicks from hating on things for no huge reason. I do think the artstyle in those comics is a bit too generic though. When I think of tumblr comics, that's the kind of thing I think of.

There is no way Jotaro wouldn't Kujo up a formal hat for a funeral too.

Your innate crabbiness can just keep the rest of us honest. ;)

A good joseph death comic should also include a moment where his hand somehow malfunctions during the funeral or burial, making everyone wonder if it's another death prank.

This isn't the first time Joseph walked in on his own funeral. He probably just got lost

I would have preferred if the tombstone had scratched out dates for 37 and 89, and 2011 had a question mark next to it.
Also the epitaph would read "OH NOOOOOOO"

The best thing about that comic is Turtle Polnareff being there to make it even more ridiculous. Like Jotaro just took him in as a pet or something.

I still don't understand how Polnareff would go along with being a GANG-STAR's consigliore, though.

Or maybe when you're a fuckin' spirit in a turtle shell you sort of throw up your hands and say "morality is bad, why not hang out with a ruthless mob teen."


Am I alone in feeling like this is not a very Polnareff-y thing to do?

He probably figured it out eventually. Maybe.

Gyro, Johnny, Valentine and Diego (The World ver.) revealed for EoH


Don't really like those colours for Johnny and Gyro but I'm loving that Diego's World looks different like it does in the manga as opposed to being a copy paste of DIO's one.

No Hot Pants yet though, sadly.

e: Also, Gyro has a unique style of fighting "revolution" in addition to horse mode and stand mode.

Every form past Act 1 of Tusk looks rad, but I'm pretty sure that's the point. For the longest time, Johnny can only shoot his fingernails and he's got this gaudy ugly-cute baby thing following him till it eventually becomes a giant pink....thing copying Johnny's horseshoe symbol on his hat and delivers the greatest ORA scene in the history of JoJo.

It's symbolic you see.

but yeah I totally forget Gyro even had a Stand sometimes.

Tusk Act 1 is cute as gently caress.

Isn't it more than Gyro dies before getting to use Ball Breaker again rather than him sacrificing it?

e: Yeah, he does voluntarily give up Scan so yeah, what Ekusukraiba says is still accurate.

Yeah, Gyro had two Stands, Scan and Ball Breaker. Scan was from the eye which he lost to Lucy Steel and he naturally gets Ball Breaker. I also totally forget how they explain how Johnny keeps Tusk when Hot Pants takes the arm, she left a small piece inside of him so he would keep Tusk?

Ball Breaker always looked less like Mickey Mouse and more like one of those drones since that weird head ornament usually faces downward

I mean, I can certainly get where people see Mickey but I just took a different impression from it.

It's unfortunate those Johnny and Gyro colors come from some of the more iconic Part 7 covers, because they're really disgusting.

America colored Johnny is the best Johnny. Also there's a SBR cover with a blue Johnny and purple hair that I like a lot, but green is ehhhhh.

wow I forgot how much Tusk Act 4 looks like it's about to gently caress you up. Johnny was a really good JoJo.

The Gyro colours are the least offensive of the two but they look quite a bit too saturated for my liking. You could salvage the Gyro pretty easy by toning down the sheer amount of blue.

There's no reason at all to go with lime green Johnny over the ASB white and blue.

Gyro didn't need a natural stand and i think its a disappointment they threw one at him at the very end. I don't even remember what it did.

It shattered Valentine's dimensional walls (which is also a result of perfect spin really) and aged the poo poo out of him. Valentine basically says he'd be straight up dead if he wasn't lucky enough to make the sphere into an ellipse.

Ball Breaker probably wouldn't have been as powerful as Tusk 4 ends up being but I imagine that if it had screen time, it would have been extremely powerful too.

I guess it might have even worked in frozen time like Tusk 4 does too.
