Somehow I think the trigger has just been pulled on Schtein’s emotions–he’s not accustomed to caring all that much, but when he does, all bets are off. I hope Thanatos has reason to regret his plans, very soon!
Sadly I think the good doctor is going to get smacked down by Thanatos. Best case scenario Thanatos decides Schtein is more of a subject of interest than just bait. (Although I will cheer like no-one’s business if I’m wrong and Schtein actually opens a can of whoopass. :D)
I think that is the first time ever I have seen Schtein display a sympathetic emotion. He actually cares about his daughter enough to want to keep her out of this? o.o
The lighting in that last frame is fantastic (more-so than usual even).
But yeah, I’d imagine Thanatos (or Abel) has some way to disarm Schtein’s power (whatever that might be). You don’t get to be Big Boss of the mutants without having some kind of reigns to tighten. Apart from that, Thanatos is probably just trying to get a rise out of Schtein to see Opa’s work firsthand.
I will admit to being moderately concerned that the site banner no longer has a picture of Schtein… ONLY the red mist. I’m not entirely sure if there’ve been banners without him in the past, but… 8-|
there was a time when it was a picture of Marcus! And before that there were moments with nothing there. and then there was the fabled first site design where this site was actually all white instead of black. (back in the first chapter)
honestly, though, I couldn’t think of something to draw for there. Maybe I will later on.
Nuoh my god are we finally going to see what Orville’s done to Schtein? I’ve been waiting most of the comic for this.
YES!!! Sic ’em, Schtein! Let the old fart have it! And his little assistant too!
omg I’m getting some serious Mr. Burns vibes from Thanatos , there.
I love the tendrils of power emanating from Schtein’s hands. Mmm.
Hoooooooooooooolllllllyyyyyyyyyyy shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.
Your power’s color fits with your eye’s color, Mr. Stone.

Yep. Methinks Schtein’s played his ace a little too early, what with Abel and his teleporting purpleness standing right behind his shoulder.
you know, you probably should mention Dr. Jessup soon, Schtein. It might just save you and Alice a whole lot of trouble.
Such an emotional journey for Dr Schtein, culminating in that glorious final panel.
So the existence of legs is now cannon. How he is dressing them however remains up to my imagination!
…. Oh Thanatos, you naughty man you.
nah, he’s just jerking our collective chain. thanatos is probably made up of thousands of insect legs, or swirling shadows under that desk.

Also, the new layout’s cool, the background-swirly-doodle-things especially.
Oooh miles-edgeworth style dramatic lighting effects are Schtein and Thanatos gonna have a courtroom battle?!
I am always surprised when Schtein display emotions other than being a petty ass-hat that bites off more than he can deal with.
Awww, look at the doc gettin’ all parental and such.
This page has the blood following for more. Your art of the tease rivals your visual creations.
Whoa Nellie. Paternal feeling set to kill.

Ah! The lighting in the last panel of this page is fantastic!
