Okay, so Invisible Scarlet O'Neil can see herself normally when she's invisible, but can't see herself in a mirror. Does she ever encounter other invisible characters, and can she see them?

Where are they right now? Is Scarlet planning to stay invisible on this train ride, regularly bonking Mr. Badly in the head for the hours or days it takes to get to New Jersey? Also, isn't Badly the kid's legal guardian, now? Can't he just write a letter back saying,"Thank you for the offer, but we can't take in a dog right now." Instead of fleeing to California?

I wonder if he's based on a real person the artist has met, or has a photograph of. That said, I assumed [Jerry] was also blind, but I guess the strip is probably only going to introduce blind people with canes or dogs. Rereading; Yeah, this is a bit weird. "Scarlet has decided to stay invisible to everyone, but will still interact with people like she's visible, because she's decided everyone she meets in Johnstown, New Jersey is blind until told otherwise." maltesh fucked around with this message at 14:58 on Feb 1, 2023 |

Given that it's 1940, possibly not, but since " It is used in eye drops as a cycloplegic (to temporarily paralyze accommodation), and as a mydriatic (to dilate the pupil)." according to the aforementioned Wikipedia link, Scarlet's probably going to dump it in Badly's eyes for that old-fashioned retributive justice.

Countblanc posted:I feel like it's a dream sequence at this point, probably starting after Miles asked his mom how to deal with it (then going to sleep off screen). Crabgrass goes some weird places at times. There was that Wrestling Match storyline where Miles' dad was almost kidnapped by a colony of mascots living in catacombs under the arena. I might be misremembering, but I think that was a presented as a "Huh, well that happened." event?

Payndz posted:I've tried and tried, but I only get "Nonsense, this is an election year" vibes from this one. Is there some wordplay I'm missing about the giant and dwarf planets, or is the joke literally "We traded Mars for something else"? I'm tangentially reminded of that Niven short story in Tales from the Draco Tavern, where Europan native aliens colonized subsurface oceans on Mars, and were waiting patiently for Humanity to get there and make first contact, but Humanity got distracted by the routine visits from the starfaring aliens that most of the Draco Tavern stories feature, and basically stopped space exploration, so they show up at the eponymous Tavern asking to buy the planet.

Hippocrass posted:Are we supposed to know who Wendy is? According to Wikipedia and Comics Kingdom, Wendy Rommel used to be Rose's Assistant. Dethany (From On The Fastrack!) was introduced as Wendy Rommel's assistant. She's now married to Art Welding (The large guy whose job apparently is to look busy). From the sparse information available, there do not appear to be any mutated animals in their family tree except for possibly the Moat Monster, who presumably is no longer head of Security now that Dethany's husband is. Wikipedia also notes that the comics been running since 1984.

Green Intern posted:She was using the mansion as a storage business without telling him, and it was probably targeted for burglary because people knew there was Stuff there. He found out about the storage business though, called her, and made her shut it down. I think the big thing is possibly that she considers the burglary her fault, and doesn't want him to know that it resulted in her falling down the stairs, going to the hospital, and not staying at the house for weeks subsequently because she didn't feel safe there, because she doesn't want him to feel he has to stop his Business Stuff and rush home.
