NO THAT'S NOT ME!!

So for the last two weeks in Demon, we've been watching yet another impossible scenario where Jimmy is engaged in a freefall battle to the death that should have lasted no more than 43 seconds. Said battle to the death finally ended today, and I encourage everyone to go look at the result.

no you see the artist likes stories with body-sharing elements in them, and we can't enjoy stories with slightly weird elements unless the creator has no interest in said weirdness because reasons

there was something disappointing about realizing the entire point of the story was setting up someone's fetish. like, the buildup, the plot, the character development and then what it leads to is: "So then they merged into one body and walked off into the sunset" and nothing else was accomplished

You would have found the story actually substantially better if you had not read a twitter post that the author enjoys stories where people share a body?

Even if body merging was the author's fetish, so what? People like all kinds of things for all kinds of dumb reasons; all that matters is whether what you've created suffers from that influence and Apothecia doesn't suffer from being obviously fetishistic, it suffers from feeling kind of inconsequential and pointless.

I don't think it's unreasonable to be let down. That comic had a fairly cool start and a fairly lame ending. Worse, that lame ending was actually a fetish thing, so probably their next project will end similarly.

What does the thread think of Supermassive Black Hole A*?

It's a hard sci-fi story about the human diaspora living in the galactic core (near the eponymous stellar body) and follows two characters, a revenge-driven engineer and an absolutely batshit crazy mercenary who's a lot more than meets the eye. Much of the conflict centers around the pursuit of very advanced technology left behind by a famous inventor during humanity's emigration to the core.

Was browsing Imgur and found this http://imgur.com/a/BqTvD?gallery

Synopsis : What if the creepy little ghost girl from The Ring was an actual little girl growing up and not a killer (But still Psychotic). Pretty enjoyable! I linked the imgur gallery because I don't like tumblr format comic stuff. As light hearted as a comic about a creepy little magic horror girl can be.

No, actually, it ended pretty flat to me like I said above "A thing happened and then they were merged. the end." finding out it was all because someone wanted to set up for their very specific interests explained it but didn't really improve the ending at all

The entire second part of Apothecia fell flat to me. None of it worked. The characters were all stupid, including the protagonist, and their actions made no sense.

True enough... there was a big timeskip and apparently interesting stuff happened during that which we'll never learn about and somehow in the aftermath everyone was deprived of common sense




In better news, we finally got some shocking revelations about one of the most mysterious characters in Band vs Band: Turpentine's cat

So I was reading through Poppy O'Possum again and some of the foreshadowing in this chapter was pretty nuts.

I mean, that giant boar that wrecked the place up got big because it was fed something "unnatural." And Valente showed up because he got a tipoff from some weird monk who giggles all the time. And I wonder where that weird hand got off to?

I know the English can be a bit janky in Prague Race, but that's a bit of a stretch, both the pun itself and how it relates to the story.

I should definitely stop reading it at work, that's for drat sure.

I think this whole scene is kinda just there to poo poocumfart in the face of anyone who, like me, got bored of the comic but kept reading on for whatever reason. Once again, I feel like I want this to just skip to the end so I can see who dies and move on.

At least it's the most "fun" Jimmie's had in like 200 years?
