Usually Mulligan puts more effort into leaving the character with "no choice but to do the bad thing", in this case he didn't bother and Patrick just kills both his parents because he's a cock? I guess?  e: On the other hand, well, you can't say that was easy to predict

hahaha This is so bad. He wants so hard to write serious emotional drama. I love it.

Going back to the cartoon characters living in Patrick's head after this is going to be a treat.

Everyone will remember today as the day that Lord House turned its head and acknowledged the 4th wall's existence for the first time.

He's literally crying comical anime tears. This is hilarious.

I want to see what Alison thinks of all this. Perhaps she got bored and wandered off?

Yeah the anime tears thing used to be worse, that's one of the few things I think the artist actually responded to critique about and improved.

I think it's the perfect time for this comic to discuss gun control.

The comment section can’t tell that it’s Patrick grabbing the gun

Can you really blame them? The detailed background is awfully distracting, after all.

As it turns out the reason why he can't read his own mind is because he mind-controlled himself to be unable to. If you have trouble parsing that, it's because it makes about as much sense as the rest of the arc

How in the hell did she pull that trigger? With her thumb? That gun and her pose are the laziest this comic's art has ever been, because this is supposed to be a climactic moment of drama and she's just sort of holding it out in a ridiculous manner and apparently shooting herself in the sternum? And there are a million stock poses for 'shooting oneself.'

This is loving stupid. This entire sequence of events is so poorly set up I'm almost certain these panels were drawn a hour before it was uploaded.

I thought she was using the last bit of free will that she did to off herself when I read it.

Because based from skin tone and sleeves that's Lord Boy Man holding the gun but then mom's holding the gun in an incredibly awkward position to shoot herself with

Depending on how you classify its villains the comic is batting 1000 for bad guys who murdered their parents.

Well, once again Molly and Brenan deliver on the dramatic punchline. This is a memory worthy of Patrick warping his own psyche around needing to forget what it is to even feel for another person. This is the emotional association Patrick has with loving affection; compelling his own mother into suicide as she proclaims her love for him. this explains why Lord Boy was determined to kill the person he associated with loving caring strength if her existence meant potentially unlocking this memory again. This would scar anyone, and Patrick more so as he literally felt her love in a tangible sense as she shot herself. He didn't think he was lying when he said he can't control people's minds, no to acknowledge that power is a step towards remembering this. Lord Boy quarantined this in the wilderness behind a wall, and than enforced strict discipline among his people to make sure they never went beyond the wall. He also exiled the aspect of Patrick's identity that forms his emotional core beyond the wall, making sure it didn't influence his actual decision making just to ensure that he didn't accidentally come closer to this memory. To put it another way "nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure". I am forever amazed that Molly and Brenan manage to deliver on the incredibly high moral and emotional stakes they set for themselves in this comic, I tip my hat to them as this was a master class delivery even for this comic.
