Oh it’s Phineas. Ugh. Why
update!!:
Sorry about the delay on the next page I’d been feeling sick off and on for a couple weeks and then this weekend after a trip to the ER it turned out I had a kidney infection! So I’m recovering from that, should be back to being better in a few days or a week. And then back to updating comic book pages! Thank you for your patience C:
Is Abel really doing alright or is he just running on pride at this point? Doesn’t want to be the guy who got wrecked by someone whose only had superpowers for a day. Superpowers he dismissed as being boring or mundane, to boot.
Well, he’s not wrecked, but he’s definitely not at 100% at the moment. Like the psychic equivalent of having a little cold maybe.
I’d be driven to assume that’s mostly because Schtein is very new at having psychic powers – given his impressive intellect, I’d bet he’ll be capable of doing far more damage once he has a little practice.
Ah, cool. When I said wrecked I was thinking about how his last encounter with Doc left Doc feeling fine and Abel barely able to stand. That makes me wonder, though, did that happen to Abel because Doc is stronger than he gave him credit for, or was it just the result of whatever conditioning/mind control grandpa Schtein did to him?
Hmm.. Is he in an insane asylum? Or a cleverly disguised facility that looks like an insane asylum?
It’s an old state hospital repurposed into a research facility. State hospital could mean a lot of things, but one of which is definitely sanitarium. (or orium? I’ve already forgotten the difference)
woah woah woah that leonard is hogging way too many panels! Tell that extra to tone it down a little!
Well, at least he doesn’t have a line here. Have to pay him extra when he has lines!
more like “it’s phineas, ugh, about time” i missed phineas so much, i’m so happy to see him again. i had a feeling you were talking about him on the last page.
I’m surprised no one guessed him in the comments, really. He’s on the chapter cover! :D
Well, I would have guessed that it would be Eric in the torture chair from the cover. And when will we see Delia? She’s my favorite. And I’m really looking forward to when Marcus could be a central plot device.
Sunset lighting on estb shot = gorgeous. :D
I have a feeling people will one day be very, very sorry they put Phineas in this position.
I think that’s a very smart bet.
True enough. On the other hand, is there any position they could have put Phineas in that would NOT have resulted one day in some people being very, very sorry? He isn’t the kind of person you can just turn loose.
They could turn him loose with a bullet in his head. That’s about the only way I can see him being “freed” would ultimately be safe for them.
But then where would they get another such conscienceless killer? It’s not like they grow on trees, you know. Not the efficient ones, like Phineas. The only explanation I can see for him not having been disposed of already with a bullet in his head is that they have a further use for him. We’re probably going to hear them make the offer right now.
this thread got dark, quick!
Hey, we remember Phineas. He’s not exactly all sweetness and light…
he’s a house cat. Cuddly and sweet, but secretly sizing you up for murder
and now I have an adorably cute mental picture I can’t resist the urge to pet.
Trespassers Will Be Far, Far, Worse Than Prosecuted
No, you see, the sign was supposed to say “procecuted” – a Thanatos Industries trademarked term for being run through a meat processor while simultaneously being electrocuted. The sign painter just misspelled it.
I am in awe in particular of the details in the very first panel. It looks both very real and also like a throwback into another era altogether. Love what you do!
