So are we going to spend the next three pages speculating over why Parley's chest is all lit up?

I imagine when Smitty and Parley get married, they just fast forward to the point where they're both dead and buried next to each other.

There's something a little bit eerie about Surma in that fifth panel.

Am I the only one who immediately thought that Kat's mom is lying for some reason (probably to cloud the plot even more)?

Annie's secretly plotting revenge on Jack by preparing his body to be the next host for Renardine. :pwn:

Everything will end up okay for Jack when a robotics project he and Kat are working on goes wrong and he ends up tarred and feathered as a result.

Have we had any clues as to how Ysengrim's body got so messed up?

Something tells me that it's going to be something tragic, like he saved Renard's life, and neither Renard or Coyote give a poo poo.

You try sealing yourself up in a wooden suit for days or weeks at a time.

His body has just atrophied from lack of use, to the point where he needs to use his tree powers to get around at all.

That doesn't explain why Ys is missing an ear.

I'm under the impression that the tree-body came after his real body got FUBARed.

GKC seems to attract the type of fans that examine every minute detail in every panel and then stretch them beyond all reason to jump to insane conclusions.

I always figured Tom's short comments like "That is not Gamma's mom" were just to poke fun at the behavior rather than to actually dissuade it, since you know the fans are going to do it anyway.

I had completely forgotten about the blinker stone = marriage proposal thing until now.

Thats part of the problem. Jack has been nothing but critical of Annie and Annie is emotionally distant and suspicious of him. Now Jack is like Walter Raleigh's more chivalrous cousin and Annie is flirting with him because he is the last unpaired male of the species in the room. That is like bad fanfic writing e.g. Matt crashing into Chang'e making her drop all of her cliches on the floor.

Jack flirted with Annie even while he was possessed by the spider-thing during the date-gone-wrong, and made a pass at her right before summer vacation. Annie is now much more receptive to him to show that she's loosened up after spending a summer with Coyote & Co.

It's not bad fanfic writing; you just need to be a little bit better at reading.

I will only accept this chapter as good if it ends with Jack flying away on a robot cow. :colbert:

We know that Jack is mechanically proficient (disabled security similar to how Kat did it), is something of a rascal (doused his buddies in the rain and set up a laser cow field), and is a smooth operator (took Annie out for a boat ride on her first date :swoon:).

It's actually funny how, in the chapter that Jack was introduced, he seemed to be getting along with Kat more than anyone else.

Is Annie playing hard to get? Is Jack playing it off smooth? Are they both being genuine?

OH GOD I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK ANYMORE :supaburn:

Completely baseless guess: Jack was put up to this by his father to spy on Surma's daughter, but Jack's actually got the hots for Kat Zimmy Reynard Boxbot Paz (hey, she could use a break)

Annie's expression doesn't match her words in Panel 2 and 4, its implied that she's the one who scooted close on the last page, and this is totally buying time so Tom can cut to the next mini-story and have the smooching be the climax of the chapter.

I don't know what's weirder, analyzing a teenage romance or doing it while the comic creator is in the thread. :ohdear:

It's also kind of hard to ignore panel 5 on this page

The problem is that there seems to be a fairly consistent inverse correlation between the quality of a webcomic and how much cash it rakes in.
