I guess there's the downside to being a ghost rebuilding your corporeal body out of spare parts. Those spare parts are vulnerable to a bat to the face. Warning: The above spoiler contains a sort of pun.

Dogbutt posted:Now that this monster is gone, will just another pop up? Kinda like a "monster of the week thing" but way longer then a week? There's still the huge tower-like ghost he saw in the rearview mirror when leaving the hospital. Plus the secret society that seems stricken with amnesia when faced with tough questions.

Now that I think about it, who is going to believe them? Wadsworth is a guy who's suffering from all kinds of mental stress. Iris forgot her dad died for a month. The Bottlefly boys are drunks.

Tenik posted:That's an interesting silhouette in the final panel. We've seen something like it before, only then I thought it was a towering ghost-thing in the distance. If it's not taller than a tree, I'm guessing that ghost must have followed them out of the hospital pretty fast.

MikeJF posted:So, the hospital they visited in chapter one is outside of town and seems to be beyond the amnesia effect's influence, right? After they left the hospital they saw the tower-demon thing, then at the end of the last chapter it was there again when he lost his memories. It's probably responsible for all the amnesia going around.

The Leper Colon V posted:Putting breakables on the windowsill is actually kind of clever. We had a break-in when I was 8 or something and my parents confiscated all my marbles to put them in a boxes around the windows and attached to the door with a string, as a cheap alarm system. They of course never went off unless someone got up early and forgot about them, waking everyone in the middle of the night. What I'm saying is: He's going to get all tangled up in pots and pans.

The pen is mightier than the sword. Especially when you are in a town where there are ghosts stitching themselves a new body or eating memories. Y'know, I am now wondering. Why was the mayor in Zane's first dream motioning Zane to be silent before his face imploded? Does subconcious Zane know concious Zane is setting himself up to get killed by talking too much?

Crain posted:True, it's the difference between looking at the train that's barreling down the tunnel towards you vs. being turned around, blindfolded, and with plugs in your ears. You're still probably not going to escape, but at least you have the chance. Sometimes, ignorance is bliss. If it involves supernatural ghosts that stitch themselves a new body out of people they murdered or a giant ghost-pillar that does whatever the gently caress it does, I'd prefer ignorance.

Fabricated posted:I still don't get why Zane is convinced he did it when he has drawings of the worms coming out of the forest in his notebook apparently, found the notebook but found no apparent weapon at his place (nor was there one at the scene which he saw), and knows that Maris was a great big dude who could've broken him in two even if he waited and surprised him, nevermind that from his notes other than his investigation into his memory loss he seems to act like he usually does in his 'lost' time. I'm 95% sure he didn't kill Maris, but consider the following: Those are probably drawings of his nightmares. He forgot all about the previous murder-ghost (who he apparently also wrote about, so this forgetting was already happening while we were following him in the comic at the start). Plus, even a big dude is going to fall over like a sack of meat if hit on the head hard enough. Zane is paranoid at the best of times, give him a vague hint of something benign and he'll imagine it is going to be the worst thing possible for himself.

Fabricated posted:I know the answer is "because then there's no story" but you kinda have to wonder why Zane doesn't just sell off the shop, pocket the money, and get the gently caress out of this weird town that is making him forget murders and being attacked by flesh-ripping zombie ghosts. I mean, getting his inheritance cleared up and transferred to his name kept him in town for the first book. He doesn't have a great reason to stick around now other than solving the obviously incredibly dangerous Scooby-Doo mystery. He's sticking around because he doesn't remember the zombie ghost or the general anxiety he felt when first arriving. Plus Iris.

I just realized why Zane has backpain in his nightmare. He used to have it due to lugging around that big chest with encyclopaedia books. Nowadays he's using it to lug around corpses.

He has forgotten all about the skin-flayer, right now he just thinks his nightmares are loving weird.
