Pants Donkey posted:I would assume a spirit that has died or gone kaput for good would no longer fear Fauxbia and thus she’d lose their powers. As for Pantomine. They use white spectral energy while V.P. DuNacht used black energy when meeting the sphinxes. Maybe related in origins but I think we can rule out that either is an offshoot of the other via Davy's sword.

Just FYI, Fauxbia mentions that the hitball game was that week. The Hitball game started in April 2015

SKULL.GIF posted:The paper tag on Mandrake's head reads "APATHY". Well that's fitting for it. My assumption is the tag is there to keep it feeling apathetic, because that's probably how to best keep it under control. I wonder how much damage it'll do if the tag is ever removed though.

Why is everyone in Mayview obsessed with sports video games. Did everyone play hitball growing up and gain a desire to play weird variants of sports that don't actually exist like 100 pin bowling in Wii Sports?

Paranatural is secretly an alternate history comic where the pivot point is motion control technology was perfected and Project Milo is the best selling game of all time As a secondary effect, ghosts also exist

Tenebrais posted:They are at least getting through a lot more story per drawing. Yeah this is the part I appreciate most. The previous format would never have ended. The current format at least has a shot of seeing completion. I tossed Zack $5/month on their Patreon since they've been posting about how they're having trouble making financial ends meet. It's not much but I get so much enjoyment out of the story.

Today's Update posted:Coach Oop returned to soggy consciousness in a burst of bright red light. Like a sleeper woken from a pleasant dream, he lurched forward with a gasp, all sorrowful regret - for a short time, as a hitball, he'd been something he respected.

So we have Fauxbia who can copy powers through fear. And Phantomime who can copy powers based on trust. Razor Rex also uses white spectral energy like Penny/Phantomime and has either a literal copy power or the power to channel powers with a loan component as well. I don't think RR and Penny are connected but it's interesting as I could easily see Phantomime's power also allowing them to dole out "roles" to other people given the theater theme of that spirit.

So there's a few interesting details here.
The line "It wasn't pain and heat that overwhelmed, but a chilling, soothing bliss." seems to jive with the mirror/reflect thing.

Yeah, I guess she has a suite of powers that have the opposite effect of what they originally did. Which fits in well with her "tonal mismatch" vibe

Would the opposite of Mister Sun's power be to make enemies weaker through crippling depression? What a thought.

Lots of stuff in this one. Razor Rex is at least partially "real" or solid or whatever. So maybe the weird skull and jawbone thing is like, sewn to a sheet? And they seem to be wielding a tool, possibly. And also the Spectralvision(tm) swapping basically confirms that RR's got the power to move other spectral powers around. Plus there's that weird mirroring thing again, with DEATHTAKER LASER. And of course, the reveal/confirmation that Davie is rich enough to not pay taxes.

Alright, so after this update my mind immediately recalled this page it clearly wasn't planned but now it makes sense why Savage didn't restrain the train when she probably could and chose to destroy it. No backup from the Consortium to thwart the death cult. Everything worked out for Razor Rex that night. I'm disappointed that Coach Oop didn't take Crush up on that blaze of glory/last stand. But I refuse to believe that Crush is gone for good so maybe next time.
