Coyote just isn't professional. He's always looking at the camera and laughing when he shouldn't be. Not like that consummate master City Face.

You guys who are defending Antimony are mixing up what she eventually develops into with what she's initially presented as. In the first few chapters, she's talented at everything, gets out of every tight spot with uncommon ease, and there's no evidence of the social awkwardness that plagues her later on. Its another one of the humps you have to get over in early GC. "It gets better later" is absolutely a valid answer but "Its kind of lousy now" is a valid complaint.

Smelly posted:Does anyone think we're actually going to get a straight answer on what Jones actually is? I can see it diverting in the next comic. I think we'll get a fairly conclusive answer as to what Jones is. However, I'm increasingly starting to suspect that even Jones is not quite certain what she is.

Fighting Trousers posted:I don't know about imitating, but this does cast a different light on this page. It reads more like she's saying what she thinks he wants/needs to hear. I wonder if Annie is going to ask about that particular display of "emotion". Assuming Jones actually told her "I was totally feeling up on your gym teacher after your mom dropped him aww yeah" and didn't skip straight to the filling factory.

Zemyla posted:On an odd note, does Jones have a belly button? I can't imagine why she would, other than looking more human. It kinda looks like she has one here although its hard to tell. Since Tom covered up the relevant bits, I'd assume Jones is, uh, fully human in appearance. Now lets stop thinking about that.

Zemyla posted:Yeah. Another sign of the divide being healed is the fact that robots didn't have belief before - look at The Sky Watcher and the Angel. Now they do, and who knows how that affects the Ether. Oh poo poo, I didn't even think about that. If robot beliefs can affect the ether the same way human beliefs do, and the robots all believe Kat is an angel/god... Wait, they totally can. Zimmy being terrified of seeing Kat is a recent development. Meaning once the robots started believing Kat was an angel, it literally altered Kat's etheric signature or whatever.

pik_d posted:Is this "somebody" talking about her look back to Paz? I assumed that Kat is Paz's roommate and has second thoughts about abandoning her this way. Unlikely. quote:Any thoughts? My guess is "No". Tom has been pretty consistently bringing up this plotline in all of Kat's appearances since Faraway Morning, so I suppose its possible. Feels vaguely vulgar if he was intentionally making the pun though. VVV "Bird" is apparently British slang for an attractive woman. Please note that I am not British and am getting this information from the Internet and may be completely wrong. 1stGear fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Dec 26, 2012 |

TenKindsOfCrazy posted:Like (most) everyone else I love their friendship so much. They're so good for each other. I just hope that living together isn't a strain on that. One of the surest ways to test a relationship is to live together. My college best friend and I never really recovered from rooming together one semester. I don't think it'll be so much living together that puts strain on them as Annie's new position. Even if she's still living and learning in the Court, Annie works for Coyote now. She has completely thrown her lot in with the etheric powers while Kat has become the new official Creator of the Court robots. They are diametrically opposed forces caught in the middle of the wider struggle between those two forces. So yeah, there's probably going to be some serious tension between the two in the future. I think it'll turn out alright though. If I had to guess at a Deathly Hallows-esque epilogue for GC, it'd have Annie in some sort of leadership position in the Forest while Kat is the Court's headmistress and they've brought the Court and the Forest together in unity.

Kikas posted:I try to use Gunnerkrieg Court as a reference point in a blog idea I'm making, and I need some things that Gunnerkreig does right, and some things is does bad. Like other people have mentioned, there's still a lot of little weirdness with the art, in particular profile shots. There's also the last panel of this page which is just an all-around hot mess. In terms of writing, the comic has issues with pacing, most notably having nearly a month of "Jones is super old". The excuse some posters made while it was happening was that it flow fine in the print version or reading in the archives, but I assume that Tom isn't writing for the print version or the archives. I also object to the magical omnicomputer but that discussion has been settled. And since criticism should come with praise, GC's art on the whole is ridiculously pretty. Divine was pretty much wall-to-wall beautiful and/or visually interesting pages while however poorly paced it was the Jones sequence also had some gorgeous bits. Furthermore, any discussion of GC's art would be lacking without mentioning the pages set in the ether and how great they are, particularly Red Gets a Name. Meanwhile, the characters have been well-developed, the subplots weave through the main plot nicely, and I get the feeling we starting to reach "poo poo hits the fan" territory pretty soon. Even while criticizing it, checking GC is the first thing I do on the applicable mornings.

It may not be the popular opinion but I personally feel the questions regarding Laundry List's involvement in the mysterious disappearance of piscine superstar Air Tunnel were never fully resolved. Frankly, Laundry got what was coming to him.

Never stop  ingAs for Annie's reaction, I think she's going to be super-pumped. She might be briefly confused that its Paz and not a boy, but that'll last like a panel and then straight back to being super-pumped.

I kind of envy the people who have forgotten what it's like to be 13 and stumbling through your first "real" relationship. On the other hand, it apparently turns you into a horrible sperglord.

quote:Gone too far and ruined the whole thing. I used to like and follow this but no longer. This is disgusting, I can't believe this was such a huge hit with everyone. This is wrong, not even regular animals show this type of affection in the wild. What are we? Are we worse than dogs? I liked this comic because it was clean and good entertainment but now I find it's just like the rest of the world...corrupt and immoral. I like to assume this person then pulled on their weird mask made out of a color-shifting material, donned a fedora, and started scribbling in their journal.

The worst thing I can see happening would be Annie being a little weirded out by Kat dating another girl and the usual teenage tension that results from your best friend suddenly spending a lot of time with someone else.

Andrevian posted:I'm not sure she'd be weirded out though. Granted, I took her "damnit, Carver" moment from the other chapter to be a demonstration that she totally has some idea of what's going on already. Read Tom's comment on that page. Tom posted:Annie is descended from a long line of people with their feet in their mouths. Its already been established that Annie is really bad at picking up social cues and PazKat has been a lot more subtle than Parley and Smitty were.
