Checking back on Poppy O'Possum after a month of not keeping up is kind of like reaching between the cushions of your couch and pulling out an entire plus size bag of candy. I am so glad to see this comic updating again.

Now just watch, after King Radical is dead and Doc is stranded in the Radical Lands this will all end with him being crowned the new King Radical.

RoboCicero posted:Calling Sparklelord still seems like a "release snakes to get rid of all the pigeons" strategy but it would be a interesting continuation of the theme that Dr. McNinja's one blind spot is King Radical. I think this time it's not so much about Doc's blindspot as it is about the fact that King Radical is winning, decisively. This is legitimately probably the only option left with the stakes this high and victory so close for King Radical.

Hey Widdershins has consistently looked interesting everytime goons have posted it I say at like midnight, I'll finally give it a proper whirl before bed.

Tbh I think we've gone way past super bitchy at this point. This is out and out verbal abuse, and I somehow doubt this is the first time in Kit's life that this woman has done this to her.

It's been super super obvious that Petunia was more than she let on for a while now. She's a terrible liar.

Well today's Poppy isn't foreboding and alarming at all! Poppy's reaction to whatever's in the chair only makes things more confusing. She doesn't seem offended, as one would expect if the theories that were flying were true, it almost reads like a sort of sad resignation? Acceptance? I legitimately have no idea what's in there now.

Wittgen posted:I'm assuming Poppy will catch her a la the romance novel cover from earlier. Fingers crossed. No, and I don't think it means she was working with the evil octopus thing so much as they turned off the dragon bell to assist with her experiments, because she was going WHOLE HAM in an effort to make a breakthrough before this event. I seem to recall hearing that some of her specimens are dragon derivatives in some way.

Renaissance Robot posted:As of today's Poppy, I wish to formally retract this opinion and adopt Morbi's instead, ie that this comic is super gay. Is about the best summary I can give of Poppy's monday update. Also for added humor, I was referring back to the harlequin romance novel chapter cover. I hadn't noticed previously the Quibble & Moonshine author logo. It really takes the whole thing to a new level of "aside from the animal people I can totally picture this in a Walmart".

Learning your parent(s) is/are just as fallible as anyone else with the same fears and hopes can improve empathy orrr it could just lead to Lily becoming even more disillusioned and I'm not sure which is more likely here.

I legitimately can't tell if Ricky boy in Poppy is angry because he suspects something is going on, and doesn't like it, or if he's just being his regular stern self. Panel 2 is giving me cause for doubt in particular. How much did he really hear though given that he, apparently, rushed in at 200% breakneck speed? In these troubling times, I turn to "Hello, apparently" to quell all doubts. Captain Oblivious fucked around with this message at 18:42 on May 28, 2016 |
