I assume if you work on the haunted train line you get used to it eventually.

I like the glimpses of weirdness we see, like the pink globs growing over the building.

Extra long update today to finish up part one. Also I didn't want to break up this sequence.

Apocalypse Johto Part 1: Silver Lining
Chapter 11: Leadership








And as is tradition for comics in this thread, Apocalypse Johto is now gay.

"Dalahästen" means "The Dala Horse"

So when Gandalf (written by a linguist) said "run Shadowfax, show us the meaning of haste"

He was saying "show us the meaning of horse" :thunk:

Nah, he would have had to say "show us the meaning of häst".

E: Also, a dalahäst is a very Swedish thing. It's those weirdly patterned horses you see painted everywhere when the crew is in Mora. The actual horses they meet also have dalahäst-patterned blankets on.

The English word haste actually comes to us from a completely different old Norse word, heifst

He's saying show us the meaning of violence

Going by train from Mora to Malmö (where the Öresund bridge is) takes about eight hours in our world, and sixteen in SSSS. One assumes the track is in worse condition than now.

What exactly happens between the third and fourth panel here? Her arm gets wrapped up, and then... It isn't?

I think it's supposed to be that Durt retracts the ball after the kicking guy says to stop, but the rope is already pulled back in the same panel? :confused:

I have never heard anyone ever say anything bad about Weird Al, and God willing, I never will.

And that's going to wrap up 2013. That leaves about 6.5 - 7 years worth to go through and at this rate I average about 1 year every month and a half, so we should hit the end of Whomp just before the end of the year.

End of Chapter 3


Chapter 4










This scene is particularly great in the anime






E: Now is probably a good time to let people know that from here on out the anime diverges a tad from the manga. Nothing major is changed but they do rearrange when certain backstories are told in order to keep motivations ambiguous and the story more suspenseful. In almost all cases this was the right choice, so much so that in a weird way it kind of feels like the manga spoils the anime in certain places by dropping certain reveals too early. For this reason if you plan to watch the anime at some point you may want to consider checking it out first before reading the rest of the manga since it's definitely the superior version of this story and you will lose the impact of certain scenes if you know what's going on beforehand. Not an absolute necessity to enjoy either version, mind you, but I figured I'd warn people just in case

Durt threw and retracted the ball just to stay her hand, doesn't appear that Durt intended to bind her for any longer than that

Ahanks for this. I'm not an Anime guy, but the art appeals to me enough to check it out.

Simple. She gets kicked, staggers, and lunges to stab him while he's doing a handstand but gets stopped by the rope. Once the big guy's back on his feet, Durt pulls the rope back now that the other guy isn't wide open to getting stabbed anymore.
