It's going to be interesting (OK, "interesting") to see how much scientism is loaded into this monologue compared with the previous one.

I think Paladin is going to give Alison a piece of her personal philosophy as a way of comforting her or advising her on what to do next. Hopefully this will be the end of the issue. (It's going to end when Alison goes to sleep, regardless.)

This chapter did introduce Lisa and hopefully got rid of Violet, so there's that at least?

Everything else aside I have no idea why this chapter is still going. Did they forget they were using a chapter format initially and just abandon it?

Oh look, a timely email from Dr. Rape Statistics to let us know that Mary was justified in every way.  At this point it's no use pretending that Mary is being presented as a positive force in the world. I was hoping that Paladin would tell Allison something motivational but instead it was just something along the lines of "yeah being a hero wasn't really what I thought it meant but it was a good time anyways".

Ok, this is progress. We're finally telling Allison to stop doing her best Atlas impersonation. Now follow through with this scene and end the chapter.

It would be a really good twist and it would certainly improve my view on the comic but I really doubt the author would do that.

I actually really hope it's not that, because it's a nice change of pace to see a superhero series where the government isn't just doing a conspiracy. Obviously the doctor isn't the entire government, but she is pretty much the human face of it in the comic. Also, there hasn't been any indication Moonshadow has had an accomplice (and why would someone who can turn invisible and create illusions need one?)

For starters, the doc could have been supplying her with information. Mary said that she doesn't go after anyone 'unless she is sure', and while I have my issues with that (Perfect information is a huge fallacy, unless your name is Batman), she certainly isn't getting all her info from Google. Also, remember that huge goddamed pile of weapons, ammo, and explosives that Moonshadow produced to those mercs? I highly doubt that she snuck in and stole all of that without anyone noticing.

Oh I don't mean to imply a government conspiracy at all, I mean just those two. And no it's mostly a wild guess, but it was super loving weird that the good Doctor pretty much directly told Allison "No you shouldn't look into this, this isn't at all important and here's a huge mass of statistics on rape that I just happen to have memorized for ~no particular reason just normal conversation material~" e: boy my typing is sloppy Flesh Forge fucked around with this message at 09:19 on Oct 30, 2015 |

An inventor whose purpose in life is to make things better for everyone; a reformed criminal who sacrificed everything to help people; a former supervillain who's trying to figure out who killed the few people who could really make a difference; and a former superhero who decided murdering people she deems guilty is the best way to solve problems. One of these things is not like the others.

nimby posted:That'll happen in the second half of this chapter. Zing. I agree that it's weird to have deranged serial killer moonshadow here with the others. It is true that she and the ex-super terrorist who thinks murder is no big deal are both on the bottom. Maybe that's intentional and the author does recognize that Mary is bad. The fact that I have to stretch to see the author as maybe possibly having a decent moral vision is really undercutting the power of this comic heavily revolving around the theme of changing the world for the better.
