Captain Bravo posted:Ok, here's my childhood trauma that makes tears well up every time I see this comic. I was like, four years old, and we had kittens in the house. And they were adorable, and I loved playing with them, and it was a great time for everyone involved. One night I couldn't find one of the kittens. I looked, and looked, and finally found the naughty kitten hiding behind a chair. It was pooping! I scolded the kitten, "BAD KITTY!" and picked it up, and took it to the litter box. I set it in the litter box, and it just laid there. It just laid there, and did nothing. I finally went and got my mom. Turns out, the chair it was hiding behind? A rocking chair. The kitten had gotten squished, and that wasn't poop coming out it's butt, that was it's intestines. I think I probably cried for an entire day, after that, and my mom got rid of all the kittens because just seeing one made me cry again! It took me a few years after that to be able to handle kittens again, and even to this day I still remember that poor kitten, especially when I see something like this.

Ok, I'm gonna gripe a bit about this. Not the comic itself, I love Widdershins, more this stupid loving trope that I see all the time. Bad guy threatens good guy with harm to hostage, good guy relents, bad guy harms hostage anyway. It is so frustrating! Good guy has advantage, then gives up advantage while the same thing that was going to happen happens anyway. What did Izzy think was going to be the outcome? "Oh, thanks Ms. Holt. I'll just release your boytoy now, safe and sound, as I'm not the literal incarnation of a deadly sin." I mean, I get it, the whole point of threatening a loved one is to ensure your opponent isn't thinking straight. But it's still annoying to see this trope in almost every story in almost every medium. Ugh.

I just want to point out that you guys seem to have missed the fact that Plethora is not the person who posted the last Bunny Meat comic, I am. I'll timg it if it's a problem, I figured it would be fine since, as is in the post, I had already told the story in the thread. But whatever, I'll timg it.

A.o.D. posted:Holy poo poo, Shiga, you moron, mustard gas doesn't just gently caress up your lungs. No, but the only completely fatal effect is loving up your lungs. Why would Demons care if the body they're in gets hosed up beyond all recognition? As long as they're still alive, all they gotta do is find another person and off themselves.

For those who don't read comics, the reason everyone is freaking out around her is simple: The red woman just turned a dude into a tree, then poofed his retainers into cherry blossoms because she's got loving godly magical powers and nobody can gently caress with her. After doing this, everyone bowed to her obvious superiority. Except for Alison, because she's about to kill some loving demons.

In Demon news, things are just about at the climax, and I'm pretty certain Jimmy's plan is going off without a hitch. Trick Hunter into bringing every demon to the castle, then deorbit a satellite directly on top of it. Check and Mate.

I really need to pay better attention, I didn't see the pinch at all. I just thought she started rubbing Poppy under her chin to calm her down, like a dog.

Morbi posted:If even one genuinely competent fighter had fought Poppy at the arena, she likely would have been shut down, but most of those types had been driven away by Boris' bullshit power-set long ago. She's got decent reflexes and tough skin, but her movements are otherwise easy to predict and full of holes that can be taken advantage of, and she tires out very fast. When she can't just end a fight with brute strength, she runs out of options quickly. Basically, Poppy is the steamroller, and everyone she's effortlessly put down so far is the guy in the uniform. If you try to just stand in her way, or trade shots with her, you will lose. If you know enough to take three steps to the side, you will win.

Either, "Yeah, I thought it was a good try." or "Yeah, but I thought it was a good try." Basically, he knew he wasn't going to win, but he gave it his best shot anyway. Edit: You motherfucker.

I kind of get the feeling Elysiume has the right idea. It's like a dead possum hooked up to some kind of magical pacemaker/stasis machine. That's why they've got the bubble and the glove box, they can't let bacteria get in there when the machine is running since the magic which keeps the body from decomposing won't work when the heart is beating.

Renaissance Robot posted:Just because your skin is light brown doesn't mean you don't buy light brown slacks from the dad supplies store. This may be right, but it's also incredibly dad to just walk around the house in tighty-whities all day long. Extra dad points if your children have friends over while you do so.

nine-gear crow posted:his sort-of girlfriend/research partner just suplexed him under the bus to save her own rear end... And the kids' too, but I'm sure they're an after thought. Are you sure about that? I'm pretty confident that the woman tearing him a new one isn't Lulenski. I think it's an unrelated executive that's just drawn kind of similarly. Edit: Herp derp I should read the comments, Magnolia posted that the woman isn't Lulenski, it's the executive seen in panel three of this page.

You guys do realize that Rjinder is not the hosed up one, right? His monster is the bad guy. He is an unwilling participant, because if he pisses his monster off it will crawl off of him leaving him without skin and dying. Or at least that's what he believes. I think it would actually be pretty interesting for him to find out that despite the pain, he doesn't actually suffer any ill-effects of his monster leaving, the same way everyone else has no problems with their monsters being separate organisms. That could be his turning-point moment, when he stops being subservient to his villainous monster, and starts calling the shots and being a stand-up guy.

Well, all the betrayal went down while everyone was asleep, right? He slipped them all mickeys, then after they were out drew the circles, summoned the sins, and got curbstomped by the Barbers. Acedia is shown as waking up right as he leaves. For all she knows, they were the ones who poisoned the drinks, hosed over Luxuria, then made up a half-baked story to cover. Yeah, being a true believer makes it easier to doubt their story, but she's not necessarily blinding herself to the facts. The fact is, the only people who can corroborate the Barbers' story are the Barbers themselves.
