Quote: Boss Deadeyes seems to be rather skillfully playing both ends against the middle here, although I'll be damned if I can glean his goal yetWe'll get there eventually. If it helps, he's of the opinion that if Hatman can't survive this he's no good anyway. Quote: In light of Vizh's previously expressed concerns, it was useful to clarify the effect of the rays on the health of those who were zapped.These were finely tuned attacks, with far less chance of colateral damage as with the genericde de-mutant gun. Quote: And Dream has entered into the next phase of emulating Captain Jack ...So next he'll be picking sailors up in seedy gaalctic bars? Quote: L's! material on the Jet Starscream Experience is hilarious, and an excellent example of how well he explores the corners and implications of the Parodyverse, while as others have noted, the next Clement seems to have adopted more than one family tradition.I'm quite pleased with that section. If Josh is lurking I hope he is too. Quote: I will miss Icy, and I still feel badly that things turned out as they did for him, although the fact that he's visiting the Hood tells me that his story is not quite over yet.No, not quite yet. Quote: Possibly useful note for any confrontation involving Dream (of which there appears to be one coming up): Dream's robotic left arm is not only armored, but detachable, which is why I've kept meaning to work in a scene where Dream gets so pissed that he pops off his own left arm and starts using it like a damn heavy metal club on the walls and various bits of furniture.I've worked that into part 3 (which I think will actually be part 1 of a new issue). Quote: I have no idea why, but the visual of an angry Dream, removing his own arm to smash a tabletop to underscore how outraged he is while he's ranting, and not even registering how stunned everyone else is by the fact that he's just temporarily removed his own arm simply to emphasize his shouting, and that he's not even giving it a second thought, strikes me as remarkably hilarious.Write it. Quote: As Al B. Harper said in a reply to one of my stories, Dream is both deeply introspective and completely non-introspective all at once, because it doesn't even register to him how profoundly strange he's become, even by his own original baseline (as with him casually pulling a Captain Jack suicide-as-reboot), and meanwhile, everyone else is kind of quietly freaking out about it, not in the least because of his own lack of reaction to it.We'll try and get to that before story's end. | |||||||
