Sorry, the animation won't run on this computer for some completely unknown reason. Try another computer.

I think what's most interesting about this flash is how we never got closure on how destroying the exile stations would help to rebuild society.

And then I remembered that none of the exiles are exclusively unique. They will all exist in the exact same capacity in the new session - so it's possible they'll be exiled again, and this time succeed.

Yeah, something like that would be fun. Mimic the first 20 or so pages with extremely minor differences, then all of a sudden John 2 puts an axe through Dad during their first battle.

So wait, what was the deal with Doc Scratch in the end? Since that universe is over, was the 'death' he wanted a result of the end of the universe? Or did he really die because Hussie shook him to death.

I'm gonna have to go back and read that conversation he had with Rose.

Also why is Karkat not turning his back on the body? Argh, Scratch!!!

I think the single most memorable moment of the entire comic for me is the sequence where John blasts off for the first time, going to attempt to kill his denizen.

The "THIS IS STUPID" panel is easily the funniest thing ever.

Vriska and John's conversations are always enjoyable to me. They're so awkward and adorable :allears:

Inexplicably for me, one of the funniest moments from the entire comic for me is the very end of one of their first conversations..

"So I guess you're spidery themed?"
"Yup"
"Haha, ew, spiders are gross!"

No, Earthbound is about four kids who go on an adventure that begins pretty low-key but slowly unfolds into a time-traveling apocalyptic adventure against an unbeatable extradimensional demon

I hope Bro is a Brony. Because that would just be the greatest possible collision of Popular Internet Things ever, especially if the My Little Pony show somehow reciprocated.

Sollux is such a weird character. He pretty much sticks to his own set of rules, and will probably he half-alive, half-dead for the rest of the comic. Doom is a weird power to have.

As much as I don't want to drag this any further, but what even elicited this response from Hussie? His tumblr post didn't explain where the argument came from, at all.

I mean, basically everyone is being completely stupid, I just want to know who was being stupid first.

After being curious and doing some research, Nix is the name of a satellite that orbits Pluto... so maybe Alternia's pink moon has some sort of connection to this.

Honestly I'll be impressed if that drat moon ever ends up being significant at all.

All you people ironically pretending to ship operating systems know that's actually a thing, right?

Yup. One of my favorite little jewels of the internet, right here. Be educated! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS-tan

Anyway horrible anime operating systems aside, honestly I think I'd be surprised at this point if the AR got prototyped. I'm sort of just expecting it to meet up with Brobot and then they run away forever, only to show up again at some critical moment.

They will all be:

Land of Pyramids and Neon
Land of Tombs and Krypton
Land of Masoleums and Xenon

Edit: Oh duh, this was already mentioned. Still, I think it's a pretty funny idea that they could all end up being basically the same, but at the same time, completely different

The weird symbol could be something like a timeline of Calliope and her brother, and who has consciousness when. Starting in the center of the spiral, which moves between red and green frequently, but then later on stays in the red for quite a while (presumably as Lord English maybe?) but ends up in the green (Calliope eventually winning out?)

How'd the meteor get into the surface of a planet completely intact with no apparent impact whatsoever? That's the weirdest part about this.

But also, for as long as we've known what the meteor lab looks like, I guess we've never seen anyone at the top of that highest tower, have we? Vriska got killed on the second highest one, if I recall.

The biggest momentum killers have probably been the summer hiatuses. Somewhere around last May, updates got really spotty and then pretty much stopped for a few months, save occasional flash updates (Synchronize/Unite, Caliborn: Enter). They final resumed around mid September I think, and even those were just updates in between Meenahquests.

After a two month break before Cascade last year and then all these other breaks, it's easy to feel like the whole thing's lost steam. This isn't even considering some of the story elements, but eh...

If there's one thing that DOESN'T happen in Homestuck, it's throwing random poo poo into the plot without overly explaining it.

So in other words, I wouldn't be surprised if at some point, what Jane said just now is explained in some ridiculous manner making the entire argument completely moot.
