Spender mentions in the first chapter somewhere that spectrals can go crazy when they start to see spirits. It's also mentioned that Max's dad is originally from mayview. Is that why he's so weird?

Max's Dad is no crazier than any other Mayview resident, which is to say still completely nuts, but I don't he's seeing spirits, otherwise Suzy would also be interviewing ghosts and Johnny would be extorting the Sphinx for small change.

It looks like Max is currently hosting a guest, does this make him a medium? I'm presuming his baseball bat spirit can't just leap into him to chat with people, if it is meant to be a weakened spirit that is slowly feeding of his energies.

Isaac is either the brooding loner almost-antihero of the team, or he is the star of some alternate version of this comic the anime adaption to which Max is the brooding loner.

Oh my god, a mysterious student council president. We're going full anime up in here. :allears:

You are saying this like Paranatural wasn't anime all along.

This, basically. didn't this comic used to be about weird ghost people? :confused:

Nah it has always been about wacky faces and great shirt ideas.

I like the idea of him being one of those dudes that unlocks supernatural powers with OJ better. It's also weird that Hijack would sneak into a school, possess a teacher, and walk out.

also do these kids have cellphones on them to text each other when they figure out if one of the teachers isn't Hijack? You'd think when you eliminate one you'd want to back up the others or have a way to send for help against the super strong ghost

The act of getting out their phones and texting each other should only take a month of strips at most so I'm sure they'll team up again in no time.

... He never scored.

edit: well he did, but he is such a doofus that it was the first thing that came to mind.

I just know it is gonna turn out ambiguous again as to whether our legitimate businessman turns out to be a spectral, the setup is too easy.

Of all the things I dislike about this chapter it’s Cody that pisses me off the most

He’s emblematic of the chapter as a whole, just getting more and more focus piled on top of him until he’s an indistinguishable pile of quirks

Him crushing on the vice principal’s nose was cute but holy gently caress enough is enough

I partially agree with you here, I don't think Vampire Cody and the School Store are inherently bad, but they appear to me to be self perpetuating problem of Hijack arc is taking a long time, but Zach wants to move onto future plot/arcs that they've been sitting on for years so they've tried to frankenstein them in to the detriment of both aspects.

Ideally in my view we'd have Hijack Arc (with Dimetri reveal as it ties into the theme of the Activity Club being at risk of collapse) --> Short School Store "break" chapter ---> Next Chapter: I Can't Believe My Little Cody is Half-Vampiric.

Cody always struck me as everybody's friend but nobody's friend. Combine that with being on the Student Council but not on the Student Council. Considering that I can see how someone might challenge him to put up or shut up.
