I'm still not entirely sure why the bat-like spirit was in the last panel of the previous update

It's there to make "YOU'RE THE PREY!" hard to read

Aw yeah it's Mr. Spooky Hands making another appearance!

This is still entirely within character for Mr Starchman.

Yeah there's no telling what's spectral weirdness and what's just Mayview nonsense.

There are some really nice visual transitions on this page. Holy poo poo does Zack need to lay off the pastels, though.

I'm super loving the scene blending, ie locker door = laptop lid, Starchman skate swoosh = Isabel swiping on the touchpad

I feel like Mr. Garcia is a red herring here but only because everything in this comic has been a red herring. I sorta hope he's actually Hijack though just so we get to see Isaac have a fight scene.

Yeah, i wanna see Isaac actually wreck poo poo and man up to some of the smack talk he's been dropping about that. At the same time, mr. Garcia is likely a red herring, because, ok, hijack got to a teacher, but why leave the school now? Why not just wait till after school, when it would've been easier? I think mr. Garcia is just being himself and is really actually very paranoid about people finding out about his weird creek-floating habit.

Except that Isaac's barrier seems to be stopping Garcia's hand. Last time Hijack possessed someone, spectral energy went right through the possessee: http://www.paranatural.net/comic/chapter-5-page-45Renaissance Robot posted:I'm super loving the scene blending, ie locker door = laptop lid, Starchman skate swoosh = Isabel swiping on the touchpad Man, I love it! So much attention to the little details! Even the TAP! sounds of the darts transitioning into Isabel on the keyboard! And a page ago, I was wondering if Starchman was gonna put on a second roller blade, but I can see that would be completely unnecessary.

isaac's weather stuff can be seen and felt by non spectrals and whatnot. it's where the thread title comes from at least i assume he's doing some wind stuff

Last time Hijack possessed someone, spectral energy went right through the possessee: http://www.paranatural.net/comic/chapter-5-page-45 Issac isn't using spectral energy, he's actually controlling real weather phenomenon. The effects of tools or powers of mediums can be seen and felt by non-spectrals, it's different than the spectral energy constructs Isabella and Spender use. That's why mr. Starchman could see Isabella and Ed playing around with their tools, which they played off as CGI. Also, of course Isaac would make a rasengan.

Ooh, okay. That makes sense. I didn't realize it was a weather thing since it was so close to his spectral color. I can see the windy-ness of it now, though.

Not the biggest fan of this four-things-at-once climax, Zack is going all-out trying to create interesting compositions that stitch it all together and he's done an interesting job of it, but the net effect is still kind of cluttered and harder to parse. It's hard to build and release tension on a bunch of different things at the same time when they're so meshed together.

The last few pages I found flowed really well when I got back and read them in a row. Action scenes in particular though are really awkward to drop suddenly and not come back to until days later, especially when they're 4 different action sequences being stitched together like this The art itself is really rad though and I'm enjoying it a lot

It has been revealed! Also I still think Garcia is a herring in regards to hijack.

I wonder if PJ/lefty is going to become Max's permanent sidekick after this arc. Because I'd be down with that.

No it's JP, PJ's more outgoing twin brother who died on the same day in a totally unrelated accident.
