clevin walked out. realised he'd forgotten his phone. walked back.

in this time a smelly man could burst into the apartment, get showered and changed, and have a long conversation. why didn't clevin just go to the store? and if he did, why did he announce he's forgotten his phone?

A good boy knows he's not allowed outside without his phone, whistle, lifejacket and a snack

Patrick went from having a gushing head wound in the last page, to having no blood or injury in the first panel of this page, to a red boo-boo covered in two band-aids and an ice pack at the end.

last I remembered, alison was expressing vague romantic interest in the cute black robotics lady

Wait, that was Feral in the latest page and not just a girl who kinda looks like her?

Okay I just backread a little. Let me get this straight: they undid one of the most horrifying and genuinely good plot points/fascinating ethical questions of the story because Alison strong-armed a guy into using his extremely specific and convenient superpower to make it all better?

Yeah I literally do not understand the point of handling it this way when she apparently received no backlash for her actions aside from throwing up a little bit out of guilt? Has she shown any moral difficulty with it since?

Like, after a chapter that did a great deal of flirting with the idea that it's okay to kill rapists + prior chapters discussing Alison's privilege and how both that and her powers make her untouchable, you'd think this isn't the kind of thing they'd leave unaddressed if we want to be sympathetic to our protagonist?

I will say this, this page is competent. You have to forget some things like why Feral is standing here and who Clevin is but the page actually follows a logical flow and has dialogue that isn't the usual brand of awkward.

The story forgot to follow through with consequences and even the threat the Congresswoman has hanging in the air rings hollow.
