rudecyrus posted:CHAPTER 29: WALK THE WILD EDGE Just chiming in to say the work you put into laying out/recapping Old Deegan out for us is appreciated. It's really fascinating to see how both comics are bad, but at least Old Deegan was bad in a way where things actually happened. Also, in regards to Wild Edge, it's been done dozens of times, but better and more interesting and with less weird ableisim. 'Place where the world is infused with wild magic and anything can happen' is a trope in Exalted (The Wyld, unformed chaotic lands at the edge of Creation, probably the most similar to the Wild Edge), D&D (Limbo, and there's even a player character race who live there, the Githzerai, my absolute faves), the Warp and the Eye of Terror in 40k (which are probably off-limits in an Imperial game, but hey, full steam ahead if you're playing Chaos). I'm less familiar with Pathfinder, but there's probably a Chaos-themed plane somewhere there too. So yeah, Mookie fumbles the ball yet again.

The Abyss, current home plane of demons, who took it over from the qlippoths who are eldritch horrors that not even demons want around.

First bit looks like Jacob fed them to the death vines while they're sleeping... Good. I thought the circular gate things were supposed to be on your hands and feet? But now they're just connectors between people's hands (and elbow in one case). And the vines are like the silver cord in astral projection?

No, see Snout unlocked the CITY OF THE FIVE GATES and so they're all sharing his. They also got three spare GATES as a random drop. They're pretty rare in this part of the map, so they were probably doing a bunch of grinding between strips.

CHAPTER 29: WALK THE WILD EDGE (cont) It's time for more WILD EDGE!  Thank god I don't have to look at the tosser's garbage anatomy anymore. Stunt is immune to physics, somehow.  Decent gag, but WILD EDGE! has been nothing but gags so far. This was the weekend cliffhanger, so on Monday...  ...Suddenly, the poachers and mongrelfolk are here in the middle of a herd of not-Tribbles. "Cute fuzzy thing is actually deadly" is something that's never been done before, right?  oh look another human-bodied creature Another poacher meets a violent, bloody end. Amazing how long these guys have survived, considering they don't know jack poo poo about the local fauna or even how to hunt.  Jaxon stabs GirlBoss for no reason other than EVIL. Everyone has a trapezoid shoved into their pants.  Stunt briefly turns himself into a dummy so the Patriarch ballerina can carry him to safety. I don't get it. Why would these things care? WILD EDGE! Plus, obligatory sexualized dying woman.  Good thing Stunt knew how to fix her injury. Not an expert, but gut wounds tend to be lethal thanks to the high density of blood vessels and your gut bacteria WILL give you sepsis if the intestines are pierced. It's okay though -- this is WILD EDGE!  Incredible dialogue. Don't worry, this isn't setting up a romantic subplot.  "Maybe there's a joke here somewhere" indeed. What does this thing eat? How the hell does it surface and crawl back underground? I think you know the answer... WILD EDGE!  Okay, so there are two ginormous mountain-turtle species hanging around WILD EDGE! Hold on -- why did Stunt bring Tank Top onto this thing in the first place? Why not head back to the outpost? How loving big is this place?  And then hundreds of tons of rock fell on them and they died. You know how I like my action scenes framed? At a flat angle from the side. Yessir, there's nothing more exciting and dynamic than surfing away from a massive rockslide with no sense of motion or scale.  Oh no, she may have popped a stitch after falling off a mountain. Good thing she doesn't have to worry about infection or bleeding to death. And Bortha's here, somehow.  Not creepy or weird at all.  In addition to the internal bleeding and infection, Blonde Greg now has to deal with half-digested rocks and stomach acid on her wound. Because magical healing vomit. WILD EDGE!  Thanks for the monologue, Stunt. Next time: WIIIIIIIIIILD EEEEEEDGE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want everyone to look at that stab panel, whenever I think of DD that panel is one of the first I think of. It’s so loving bad there is no weight no motion, it’s like it hovered into her. Not to mention where the other poacher is standing is completely out of position to stab someone with that kind of arm motion. It’s so baffling how he is that bad at composition.

that seems like a lot of oddly placed faith to have in the poorly-conveyed healing virtues of someone's puke, to just let it sit in someone else's festering wound for a couple of hours like, I'd have tried to clean that up, weirdo that I am SatansOnion fucked around with this message at 06:12 on Jun 3, 2023 |

I remember Mookie farthuffing over what he perceived as his own cleverness naming the two redshirts Michael Jackson in the original blog. Weedle is literally a pokemon. The beat of one baddie hamstringing another is when they're being chased by a bear or something so it can occupy itself with the downed one and the other one can escape. There is no reason for Jaxon to do this. Like any trope Mookie includes in his comics, he clearly saw this somewhere but did not understand why it was there or what it was doing. Why did Stunt the he-man woman-hater who has been consistently taking action to murder his coworkers suddenly change his mind here aside from the idiot plot? Why the star wars prequel origin for stunt's nickname?

So we can see he's only misogynistic in a charming funny good-guy way, not a horrible bad-guy way! As everyone knows, hating women is a neutral character trait and what matters is how it's expressed.

It was rhetorical (in case it was unclear) but yeah, Mookie definitely thinks Stunt is a "cool" misogynist like Han Solo. Mookie's definitely the kind of shitlib who thinks of bigotry against group x as a character flaw which gives Stunt 10 more skill points for wilderness lore.

Like, I know there are some pretty big retcons regarding Stunt, but I don't recall if that's part of it.
