Honestly, that happened a lot sooner than I was expecting. I thought they'd build up a whole army of trapped enemies before the walls all came down at once in the final act.

He's getting a lot better with his timing. That's the first time I've laughed out loud at a Thorsby strip that was intentionally funny!

Moose are already bizarre. It's like a big rear end deer, but with, like webbed antlers? Like a duck's foot compared to a chicken's? And instead of a deer face they have weird melty horse faces.

Audrey is my favourite character because she knows she's in a Thorsby comic. She doesn't bother thinking anything through logically, she just picks the weirdest solution under the assumption that it will always be the correct one.

Well, that was a fun little romp. Nothing wrong with a short comic. I wonder what Thorsby's next project will be?

That's a great punchline. Audrey is the best character Thorsby's ever come up with.

This is what you would get if you sat an ancient Egyptian in front of Toondoo.com and told him to recreate a loony tunes bit.

I'm not buying this. You can't tell me Audrey doesn't know the best way to dispose of a body. If nothing else, she's the kind of person who would look it up while bored.

These are almost conventional real-life Earth animals. I wonder if this isn't a little bit of worldbuilding.

I'm starting to think Oyvind Thorsby is a collective of writers trying to one-up each other with the dialogue, because every time I think we've hit the peak something like this happens

Excuse me, this can't be the end, Trixie isn't the president yet. Time to motion for the mind muggers to reorganize into a democratic republic and hold free elections.

Otherkinsey Scale posted:I'm suspicious of this guy. Partly because he makes all these wild claims and even Klara hasn't heard of his species, but mostly because he's Elf Hobo Captain Planet. It really does bother me how much he looks like Captain Planet, because I'm pretty sure it was 100% accidental

220 221 I love the vacant little smirks Oyvind characters always have whenever their latest lies land. Yeah, you just made things a hundred times more complicated and the inevitable collapse of this house of cards will be all the more devastating, but for now it's working and there are no more problems!

Only after they try to all agree to stop her if she tries to kill anybody, which fails because both Klara and Lyndon wouldn't be able to take away something that makes Audrey so happy.

They should have bound and gagged them and then buried them alive to suffocate in darkness and confusion. If they don't have any clues to how they die, they can't take any precautions!

Dragonatrix posted:Yeah, they're so getting ripped off if they take it as is. I'm hoping for some Extreme Negotiating Action before they go after 'em. I'm going to bet that they get all three and then eat two of them right in front of the client. Three rare cupcakes are one thing, but the last known cupcake is quite another.

I bet you could do all sorts of weird stuff with gravity working differently on each of you. I'm a little disappointed that Thorsby hasn't already overthought all the different combinations, actually

Okay, now I'm on board with the scepter vision theory because it means that Audrey, the least trustworthy character, is going to have to try and convince the entire country about something

There was that one page when he and Audrey got together and the thread was briefly happy for them. He almost immediately screwed that up though.

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:Also after doing some timeline math I agree that it only simulates X years (a little bit more than five) of starlight due to limits on its processing power It doesn't stop simulating anything, it only simulates a five light-year radius of existence. The stars were never there, only the light they were emitting that had already entered that radius. It look five years for the last of those photons to hit earth, so it looked like all the stars vanished at once.

Oh man, that's a perfect way to take out a villain. Just let them get ahold of it, wait a little while, and then leak some juicy info that would have been useful earlier and let the problem solve itself.

I don't appreciate the implication that we're all Lyndons for figuring this out

So she's a pacifist mage too, right? All her spells have been defensive and I don't remember her actually hurting anybody

# ¿ Aug 11, 2019 14:24 |

I bet it works the same as plausible deniability magic, only the person you need to convince is yourself. So a really good magician could summon a meteor over a building and then rationalize that it was the falling rubble that killed the occupants and not the spell itself, but a Lyndon could lose all his spells because a cigarette he lit at a party while showing off twenty years ago may have hastened somebody's death by a few hours

You only get physical sensations, so it would feel different to the Lyndon getting the vision. Actually, it would be interesting to know how different he felt. He wouldn't know what his vision self was thinking, but he'd probably be able to know by autonomous body responses that he was feeling anxious and sad but not surprised

I knew he was building up to something, but I was a fool for trying to guess what it would be

Not only has she just come off a multi-year dry spell, this is absolutely the most deserving person she's ever gotten to kill. And look at how much throat he has to slit! It's like getting out of a vegan commune and digging right into a perfectly-cooked AAA strip loin cut from a cow that killed your sister

My thought process: Oh yeah, Audrey didn't experience that, only Lyndon did Wait, no he didn't, he only got the last couple seconds Only then did it actually sink in for me that nobody experienced the last year of this comic. Not a single character even has memories of it. I should be disappointed in that, but at least it's better than Captain Picard living an entire false lifetime before dying of old age and it not affecting him at all except now he knows how to play a flute

"Are you sad? Yes. Because of Lyndon" describes more than half of the comic at this point

Space Spy is my #1. My favourite part of any Thorsby comic is when he starts a setting from a simple premise and then really delves deep into how that effects everything around it, I wish more sci fi authors would take a page from this book. Trixie is a very close second, I just wish he'd revealed a little more about the setting. I know he has the whole history of that world written out somewhere. Hitmen is third for me, I'll always have respect for the original, but I reread it earlier this year and that art is rough. If I had crazy money I'd commission a One Punch Man style remake, just to share it with more people. Transdimensional Brain Chip was the first Thorsby comic I read entirely as it came out, the pacing will probably work better on a reread Lies, Sisters and Wives was hard for me to read, I get real bad secondhand embarrassment even from fictional characters. I love Ben Stiller as an actor, I cannot watch a single movie he did in the nineties
