Yeah I guess the answer to "how could you?" is that he was raised by an extreme bigot in a culture where that was seen as acceptable. I don't think that means that he was owed the benefit of the doubt or forgiveness, but apparently despite them being so close neither of them realized he had genocidal tendencies. I do wonder if Siggy actually withheld that info or of it just never came up. Like did he change his opinion on that being okay? Or did he just think getting too radical would scare them off? I don't believe any of this gets elaborated on. But the vision does really leave one to wonder what happened between that and adulthood.

Yeah even in historically super racist cultures you don't have a lot of examples of teenagers doing mass murders on their own as like, birthday presents. Even accepting he's like nobility. Lynchings were a community affair. Everyone was complicit.

I wonder whether Necro-Plant Lady is ever going to get tied into the main plot, or if she actually exists entirely for the purpose of stalling it.

The whole reason she even exists is because Mookie had writer’s block, so you do the math

Mookie did give her a plot purpose, Daxethar or whatever said her weird necro nature might interface in a weird and possibly destructive way with Maltak. I have zero expectation of that being delivered upon in any satisfying way, but it's there.

DamnitGannet posted:maybe i missed it, but how do all of the werewolves know about jayden cheating on milov? did milov learn about it and then immediately tell everyone? Yeah, putting Stonewater and Siggy's stories side by side it's really strange how Mookie justifies those extreme reactions. Both committed a horrible crime as a young man. Both their crimes can be, definitely not excused but at least a bit explained by the horrible culture surrounding them. Both feel sorry for their crimes years later. But Stonewater's actions are retroactively justified, everybody immediately accepts that there was no other thing he could have done and the only way anybody could ever think Stonewater was anything less than a hero is demonic possession. Most memorable in light of the current story is Dejah saying that it's good news that not all people who have committed sins go to hell, because that means Szark and Stonewater can still be saved and Dominic immediately getting mad at the implication that the two are not already good people. Siggy on the other hand goes to hell and is immediately hated forever by his former friends once the truth is revealed. As a first reaction this is at least more realistic than what happened with Stonewater, but it doesn't look as if this is ever going to change.

It's literally just Siggy was evil on the D&D alignment chart and Stonewater was good. Therefore Siggy must be punished and vanquished and Stonewater must be forgiven. Context of their actions doesn't matter.

What Mookie promised: There may even be loving, consensual sex scenes if the story calls for them. What we got: Snout snuggling with his undead abuser, her hand lightly brushing his limp penis.

The most baffling thing to me is, why is Ink Witch's relationship with Snout suddenly on hold for this? It kind of feels like Mookie just took their dynamic and copy/pasted it onto Corpsemommy. If there's some kind of love triangle there, show it. If they're ok with it and are forming a polycule, show it. Instead things just happen with no rhyme, reason, or consequences. Ink Witch continues to look at Snout with bedroom eyes and hold his hand, but then he's just naked in bed with Corpsemom. What exactly am I supposed to take from that?

This comic is absolutely dedicated to showing the reader every time a Snout eats or sleeps even if nothing eventful happens during it.

Oh yes, I, too, sleep contorted so that both my rear end and tits point towards the ceiling and any unseen voyeurs. God, that looks uncomfortable. Also, while I'm here, I'm eternally unclear on what corpsemommy's skin... texture... is meant to convey.

I can't help but to read the sequence of events here as, 'She tries to get him to help her pick out a name, but he yawns and can't be bothered, but he's such a good boy that they cuddle naked anyways.'

His chest hair is a T and she's destroying his dick with her hand and knee. A rhyme so good it could be in one of those library books about J. Deegan or whatever. I don't think I like this comic very much.

I hate mookie using that splotchy inky brush for ALL plants as well as the ink effects, I didnt even know the necromantic vines were supposed to look like plants at first, and in that image. I wish he'd just draw on leaves or flowers at least for closeups or not always use pitch black

Why is the spiral of crap emerging from a random point in the mattress between the two of them? Why is only the left half of the blanket drawn so it looks like they're hovering in the air 2 feet over to the right of where the bed actually is?

Good lord, does the "loyalty" thing with the werewolves suck rear end. Mookie came up with an idea for his imaginary race's culture but was too lazy to think the details through. Why is it so important that it became the cornerstone of their culture? Does it matter who or what you are loyal to? Who the gently caress knows, it's pretty much just a buzzword to push the plot along. If Mookie wanted us to like Milov, then having the supposedly-progressive guy be the one to blow up the church to appease and fall back in line with the conservatives sure is something. If Mookie had any understanding of writing themes or characterization, then Milov could've been torn between being loyal to his people's traditions or loyal with his ideals. Maybe have the ordeal with Siggy give Milov the confidence to say gently caress you to the conservatives and protect the church because he's being loyal to his ideals. Or maybe he could find some clever third solution. There's a very low bar in coming up with satisfying story beats and Mookie fails it every time. As an aside, I loving hate how Katya stopped mattering to the plot as soon as Mookie reveals that she has a mental disability. GreenMetalSun posted:I can't help but to read the sequence of events here as, 'She tries to get him to help her pick out a name, but he yawns and can't be bothered, but he's such a good boy that they cuddle naked anyways.' Agreed. I guess the Watsonian reading is that they took a long time looking at various names and got too tired to continue. But we've seen how little Snout gives a poo poo about Corpsemomwife, like when he never asked for her well-being right after she got cured. It's way easier to believe that he couldn't be assed to help her out.

It's a small thing, but Snout's elbow spikes really bother me. Also, I keep wanting to call Snout "Mookie." Not only because of the self-insert aspect, but because he looks like a "Mookie," if that makes any sense. ScienceSeagull fucked around with this message at 14:36 on Jul 28, 2021 |
