If Charlie Brown loses a shoe when he gets hit with a baseball, I'm pretty sure Jones loses every article of clothing from a bomb. But her clothes are made from the same material as She-Hulk's costume. The Comics Code

I like how we're analyzing Jones when there's a loving Coyote that steals the moon, who lives on the other side of a haunted river which is guarded by a ghost that can kill psychopomps. That wasn't sarcasm, I just love this comic so drat much.

BobTheJanitor posted:Hey guys I heard Jones is solid c/d? Yeah, I get that. I was just idly musing about elements I love that all happen to be in the same strip. To me, Jones is the bridge between the Court and the Forest (besides... the actual bridge). She's equally magical and scientific/observational, at least in my interpretation. I want a Gunnerkrigg cartoon series like there's no freakin' tomorrow, because I want to hear all these characters speak. I wonder if Jones would sound like a female Mr. Freeze.

Nihilarian posted:I'm not sure if I'm hoping or fearing that you are referring to the Mr. Freeze that is portrayed by Arnold Schwarzenneger. I of course meant the late, great Michael Ansara. Although Jones spouting off stone-themed puns and one liners in Arnold's voice would make my day.

I remember watching it once or twice as a kid and I didn't even like it, then. I may have been distracted by the contest I was having in my brain regarding which of the two main characters had the bigger forehead, though.

Splicer posted:Unless you burn your family to death. Then you just get metaphors and a quick trip to etherville. Hey, if you burned your family to death, assuming you loved them, would you want your immortal spirit dicking around on Earth, which would remind you of said family, all the while having ghost-regrets? Why did Mort cross into the ether? He was sick of having Ghost Traumatic Stress Disorder.

youcallthatatwist posted:Man, what's with all the mopiness about Mort? His death was fairly peaceful and content by fictional standards. Compare that to, say, Eightfold from Paranatural, whose departure felt way more depressing to me, even with the latter's relative lack of screen time. Mort's been my favorite character since the chapter introducing him. I have a soft spot for comic-relief characters, and Tom was kind enough to flesh him out (even though he's a ghost, haha.) His lame jokes endeared him to me, as did the notion that all of his friends got older and moved on while he couldn't. Mort was stuck for the longest time, but made the best of a bad situation, made a few friends and eventually chose to move on. I'm glad knowing that my favorite character got what is probably the nicest death we'll see in the entire story. All that said, I can understand people not being sad that a ghost died.
