Taking the time to read through the archives again, on the prompting of someone else upthread.

I love Mort. I forgot how much of a great character he is.

Did Annie actually start that fire? It looks like she does (similar art as when she does other things with her mind), but it could just be stylization.

Hussie actually asked for people to vote for Gunnerkrigg over him, so it might have a chance.

Neither Goblins or OOTS should win, though. God no.

I feel like the people who think Annie's going to be homophobic missed the fact that she had nothing like that to say about Zimmy and Gamma. And also missed most of her character, but still.

Finding out someone you liked and thought was a cool dude might be a gross rear end in a top hat is important to people, shockingly!

Tom should probably say something on not-Twitter about this where it's easier to say your entire thoughts on the situation, as I still think people are unsure what exactly to think about it. I had the benefit of sleeping through the entire thing up until his final tweet and it reads to me that he was quoting a joke he found lovely and being baffled by people thinking he was making the joke himself, but I can 100% see why people might have read it otherwise and I don't blame them in the slightest for being hurt by it.

When I say 'gross rear end in a top hat' I meant 'possibly transphobic' and to the many trans people I know and am friends with, yeah that's kind of significantly important! I mean you wouldn't give poo poo to anyone upset that celebrities they liked and enjoyed (such as Simon Pegg) came out and defended noted pedophile Woody Allen, would you?

If only there was a clear, in-comic visual of anthony stabbing annie's literal soul and putting her into the hospital with no warning and making everyone around her fear for her life. then it'd be unambiguous that anthony is being abusive, right

Yeah, it's why all this apologia for Tony over the last dozen chapters or so of the comic have been rubbing people the wrong way (including me). I know several people who have just stopped reading the comic because of this latest chapter, too. Hopefully something changes!
