Clevin O'Toole! How the hell did he ever manage to survive middle school? The only logical explanation is that his given name was something like Brian Johnson and then he decided to formally change it recently.

At this point I think we've figured out the writer is now in his working out my dating issues section of the comic. Hey whatever happened to her serial killer friend? The one that was running around just straight up murdering people? Oh nothing? What about the whole Cleaver has cancer and is going to die, oh he's still around, oh what happened to that huge government conspiracy to killer supers. Oh nothing. At this point just watching the death spiral.

Yeah but the comic hasn't mentioned his cancer since, like, the first time it mentioned it. Not like it should be recapped every panel he's in but ...

Next, he'll carry his printer 2 miles to her apartment to help her print something... Is there any point to this aside from making Clevin out to be the COOLEST RADDEST NICEST BESTEST FRIEND EVER who totally doesn't deserve to be in the friend zone?

How else can you justify the tragic sex scene where she accidentally pinches off his wiener

"Clevin I don't know how you're going to react to this, but ... the only way we can heal you is to graft on some parts from Feral, which she selflessly donated to you." And then the comic can get into a deeply confrontational examination of transgender/transition issues.

You joke but I am seriously on board with this comic suddenly becoming an actual self-aware parody of itself e: the next arc is Alison coming to terms with being an incel.

Also where the gently caress can you buy a free movie year long membership card. How much did that cost ?

I rolled my eyes at the movie membership thing too, but apparently it exists.

Nah, today's comic gives it away. Allison will talk to Patrick about this donation, start to think again that maybe he isn't the worst person in the world, Patrick will have Clevin killed just to remind her that he really is super evil.

This comic is at its strongest when characters are having relationships at each other and I look forward to more of that

Take the money Allison, focus on one project. Get it off the ground. Read the packet he enclosed in the letter because he's probably going to give you advice on your startup. (and an apology)

Hello, I still hold your friend and mentor in literal indentured servitude, but where are my manners here's what is, to me, a filthy rich amoral capitalist pirate who can read the minds of my competitors, a trivial amount of money! e: this would have worked better if the comic hadn't explicitly shown the amount and instead just zoomed in on a lot of zeroes and commas Flesh Forge fucked around with this message at 16:47 on Sep 9, 2016 |

Before I make a snarky comment, I'd just like to ask. Has anyone else ever seen a check that looks like that? Because I have not.
|
# ? Sep 9, 2016 20:56 |

It's not even signed.

They're a writer and an artist, of course they've never seen a check in their lives. But for real though, more than Alison's imminent moral dillemma I really want to see Lisa's reaction to this. (Especially if Alison just goes ahead and cashes it, and later has to explain to Lisa that she just accepted money from the company that represents everything she hates and has basically kept her hands tied with red tape.)

Its a joke check, Patrick just included it because he knows she's dumb and it'll trick her into reading the rest of the stuff he put in the envelope.

# ? Sep 9, 2016 21:15 |

why did she open the envelope like that

That's... certainly a reaction. Link

That's the dumbest loving thing she could have done welp let me just tear up a 25 million dolllar check gently caress the people who I am trying to help. What the hell.

I think we have to be fair here. That check was basically a poison pill, even if Patrick didn't mean it as one. First, it's way more money than Alison knows what to do with. Second, it's a huge donation from the person who her business partner actively hates and is being screwed over by. Getting rid of it was the right decision, although maybe she should have thought about it for longer than thirty seconds.

Yeah, you're right. For such a fuckin' smarty pants, evil Xavier should have thought to make it an anonymous donation, or through some front charity so it wouldn't obviously be from him. But hey, now we're reminded that Alison is the good guy. Thank god for that.

I was reminded she's a hothead with a temper problem.

I was going to say that she should have at least talked to Paladin about it, but then I remembered that I don't think Alison ever explained to her partner that she was close/involved with Patrick, so there would be no way for her to actually explain why she was getting that check. Am I wrong?

Her business partner's an insano mad scientist who seems to gently caress up anything that isn't a weapon. Patrick is right. Also if Alison's charity doesn't know what to do with donations Alison really needs to hire someone to take over for her.

It's super dumb to tear up a check because of personal reasons. Like if was from Donald Trump you'd still take the money. It's a check in the mail with no note or conditions based on cashing it. It's just dumb.

If Hitler wrote a check to a non profit I owned that was 25 million dollars I would at least consider sending a thank you card.

Then you'd have to deal with people attacking your non-profit as being funded by Hitler, making you a Nazi shill.
