Obviously Spender's attack screwed up Forge's attack. I wonder why Forge is shrugging it off? Also I just realized that the magnet snake in the banner opens their head/mouth thing when you scroll the mouse over it

No, it's definitely a tool. It just so happens that spirits can interact with their tool-users (perhaps only when they're in contact with their tools? or close proximity?) like they do the possessed.

Calaveron posted:If Forge's powers consist of being able to make weapons out of random bits of metal I desperately want him to possess Max for that magnetism/weapon synergy. Gray spectral energy. I wonder if spectral energy color is more like a spectrum (there's a pun here somewhere) or hard-coded categories. Gray isn't too different from black. ... I really doubt Forge would get along with Magnet Snake though. (I really wish we knew that thing's name.) Brought To You By posted:So basically Accel World? I can dig that. Well, if Forge is defeated he's more likely to stick around as a character  Or be definitively gone forever.

Still hard to tell exactly what the nature of Spender's shadow-manipulation power is. Cool trick though.

It's going to turn out that Spender's being hilariously inefficient with the shadow spirit's powers; he just thinks the most effective style of using them looks dumb

Zero_Tactility posted:I love how pissed off Forge is by this turn of events. At the end of the previous strip he seemed completely resigned to his fate, and now he's just so angry that Spender hasn't lived up to his expectations. He was basically prepared to go out in a blaze of glory for the last half-dozen strips or so Like I said though, I'm pretty sure that Spender is being stupid/an enormous dork and not effectively using his medium powers. I don't have much to go off of other than his reaction to what Forge just said and what Isabella's grandpa said, though.

A big flaming stink posted:Ava's Demon is awful because it tries to have a homestuck-level of plot complexity and cast size from the very beginning of the story. It just dumps loads of characters and conspiracies Dude there are like 7-8 characters and a mostly-unexplored conspiracy and a half so far. If that's too much for you I don't think it's the comic that's the problem

Trebuchet King posted:I wonder--we earlier saw Eightfold manifest briefly before getting re-tooled, with the implication that that's been done a few times. They seem to have a decent rapport, I'm curious as to if they've considered ditching the book and going medium. I was just wondering why they haven't tried that already honestly Maybe the appearance complication is more trouble than the advantages are worth?

Things that are true and not at all theories: Spender will go to the dark side and turn into a Naruto character. Johnny is going to end up with the most absurdly obnoxious power in existence. Possibly even being an excrementalist  Max dies in this chapter and is replaced by the real hero of this story, P.J.!

Why would she be angry with him? I mean, she doesn't have to be a rational actor. But Max didn't do anything to shape her or her worldview, and he didn't treat Eightfold as particularly subhuman (as far as I can tell anyway). Maybe she would project her anger at herself on him? I don't know, I think it would just drive a wedge deeper into her relationship with her grandfather.

Eightfold isn't gonna die she's just gonna be trapped underground until her prison rots apart  Anybody else notice that her lower eye is tearing up? Edit: I suddenly feel very, very sorry for the cursedogs

paradoxGentleman posted:We choose to willfully ignore that she's not gonna die because being stuck forever in a mine while your corporeal vessel slowly rots is worse. Man how long do you think an unprotected book is going to last underground? The real concern is a) Eightfold will be stuck outside of the shieldbubblewallbarrier thing (what's it called again?) and b) Eightfold's liable to get noshed on by your average passing feral spirit

Mystic Mongol posted:A big explanation about how she was sacrificing herself to save the new kid when it was completely unnessecary? That would only make sense if Eightfold was a goo who took herself entirely too seriously, just like Max, Johnny, Isaac, Isaac's Spirit, Spender, Tex, Boss Leader, Suzy, and Mr. Garcia. Paranatural is too much of a gritty, high stakes adventure for Eightfold not to die in the most horrible way imaginable! Empty quote this if I could. Can't wait for the next update
