Elephant Parade posted:What the hell. I was absolutely sure that Alison destroying the wall would gently caress up Patrick, leading to an arc where she realizes that using force to make people do things is wrong (hello, spoiled rich kid's wealthy, well-connected, and likely vengeful family!), but apparently not. I loved the bulk of this comic up until now, but I'm probably going to drop it if things don't improve. Source your quotes.

I loved the bulk of this comic up until now, but I'm probably going to drop it if things don't improve. We have had multiple instances in this story where Allison gets away Scott-free with excessive use of force. Used to be she was self aware of it as privilege and it led to some of her better character moments like her talk with cleaver. But it's been three arcs now where she does the wrong thing and no consequence occurs even though logically it should. If you didn't figure out from her living room rondevous with that rich kid, there are no people who can stop her or prove her wrong.

I've seen it said in various different flavors, but the main character of a comic about how you can't solve everything with brute force solves everything with brute force. The comic defies its own premise to an absurd degree.

Not being able to solve everything with brute force is a problem that got solved by more brute force.

I propose that if Allison would actually flip off the world and do as she pleases, she'd be a more interesting and a more honest character.

Ok, something positive: This page flows really well, and makes excellent use of a color change in the background to set the mood.

Wait, if this happened, then he had to have already dealt with his trauma. Enough to remember to go back and stab his mother.

Axe-man posted:Wait, if this happened, then he had to have already dealt with his trauma. Enough to remember to go back and stab his mother. Calling it now, all his childish memories are false and overly influenced by his ability to read minds to the point where he fabricated the entire ordeal. In reality his family was just a simple middle class with a stressed out mom and a complacent father. Skipper didn't die because his neck got snapped, Patrick's mom was just mad one night and was thinking about doing it. Also she never intended to kill Patrick, again it was all in his head. He'll realize this when he goes to confront them and sees what really was happening now that he's gotten a better control of his power and also realize his entire reason for becoming a mass murderer was based on nothing but childhood fear and perceived trauma. Which Allison will help him cope with in less than 2 pages.

My guess is that his mom had something to do with the conspiracy, given that his early development of powers gave her early warning that things were potentially going to pop off with an entire generation of kids.

Alison punches her in the jaw and tells Patrick he doesn't have to be afraid anymore. She's there for him. Patrick is healed.

Hell I'll take it, I got more balls than I know what to do with as-is. Also the fact that Patrick has repressed memories is the payoff for that weird "you can't read your own mind" thing, huh?

The mom in family units just doesn't exist. Many people blame white people culture, but it is pure biotruths that women just have to move on after having 2 or 3 kids and start a new family.

i wish they'd walked in on the parents having sex, just like whipping each other, screaming, cursing, both dressed like easter bunnies, and then allison is so hot and bothered she jumps on patrick and they fall down the stairs and he breaks his neck and dies instantly but she just keeps humping until the lower half of his body completely detaches and goose steps around the yard spraying blood everywhere and then the professor shows up and tells us it's all because of the uncertainty principle. meanwhile clevin has burnt the house down and they're all dead. the comic is over, it's over, we're free
