I'm undecided if Suzy is treating Max like that because she's driven by her journalistic desire to shine a light on the dark in the corners of the school... Or because she's trying to hide a crush on him. Probably both. Edit: Also, the person who deserves more love is Jeff.

PleasingFungus posted:It's probably worth noting that the comic starts a little slow; the first few pages in particular have very little of the charm that the rest of the comic oozes, both from the art and the writing. By halfway through the first chapter it's in full swing, though, and from then on it's hard to put down! Seriously, I want to pitch in to try and help Zack be able to quit work(Not school, never quit school) and just work on this. We need to help promote this awesome fantastic comic that's part Calvin and Hobbes, part Earthbound, part Ghostbusters and all Awesome. I want this to be a "thing" like Gunnerkrigg.

Look, Gunnerkrigg Court rules, Paranatural rules, let's not get into an argument about it and say that in the absence of a psychotically obsessed fanbase like Homestuck's, the fact that a young, relatively unknown comic like Paranatural getting to such a high level of status is super awesome, and everybody should be psyched. Also, the Paranatural guy should do a kickstarter.

I'd love a print run. Honestly, I'd be okay with owning a run of just what he's already put out and the end of chap. 3. Doesn't even need to be more than that and I'd pay into a kickstarter.

I'd buy a poster, but I'd rather see a poster of just the cool trippy landscapes that he keeps putting in the backrounds of walking scenes. I emailed sayin' so, too. Cuz like that's what I would rather buy a poster of.

Ed rules, and I love his nonchalantness. He's a fun guy. I'd put him and Max as my favorites in the Activity Club. But then, I always thought Ness and Jeff would be total broes.

MikeJF posted:Days to recover? I wonder what the damage is. Wait. Now I'm confused. "Since your spirit is out of your tool, didn't you just lose your powers?" "Yeah, for now, no big, Eightfold only takes a few days to recover" then "Gonna need your powers for whatever Spender wants us to do after school". Doesn't the first exchange mean it'd take her a few days for Eightfold to give her her powers again? Or something?

Just like you don't want to bring damaging, fast-breeding species of invasive water plants from one lake to another, you don't wanna go spreading ghosts and spirits around. They might already be there, but you don't want to bring MORE out of Mayview.

I might be reading too much of the Gentleman Bastards series(In which a group of thieves and con men work together flawlessly to bilk everyone out of everything) recently, but did Isabel drop back to let Max ask a question of Spender without her being right next to him? The "oh look my shoe came untied what is this treachery" line seems like a convenient excuse. Ooooor maybe it's just Isabel being Isabel about her shoe coming undone. Scrub needs to learn a better shoelace knot.

Tenebrais posted:I think she was trying to slow down their sweep so that they would have to resort to drastic (fun) measures. She looked surprised when Max asked his question. Okay, then my read of her having an ulterior motive was right, just for the wrong reason. I do have the Gentleman Bastards books on the brain. Kinda read 3 of them in less than a week.

I am basing this solely on the fact that there are three of them and three dogs, though they look like the sorta low-lives who wouldn't be above such foul skull language. Aaaaand then I spent a little while reading after that link. I really want more Ed screentime.

Roland Jones posted:Man, Forge's line in panel nine. Yet another one from him acknowledging that he can't beat Spender. Though he seems less resigned and more pissed compared to two pages ago. I think he's planning to not beat Spender. If his corporeal body gets wrecked, he can do something with the multiheaded whoosewhatshit to get through the barrier.
