The answer to the question 'who actually gives a gently caress about Terracciano's taste in video game girlfriends/video game endings/beer/weddings' entices me only slightly less than the answer to the question 'who seriously gives a gently caress about the human bolognese over here'. The answer to both, of course, should be nobody. This is both uninspired and uninspiring. Wake me up when the comic starts being interesting again.

The Beast has somehow become even more lame. Mookie continues to plumb the depths of mediocrity.

I still can't get over how nonchalantly he's talking to the otherworldly abomination nobody can understand. "Oh, you again. Let me just get my mask..." Was that even the last time Dominic engaged the Beast? Celesto had the beasty-babies in...Prontus, I think, and his cosplay in Errosus. I can't remember when last he foigt the real McCoy.

The last panel kind of reminds me of Forming. The pose, the roughly hewn figure, the constrictive panel size. Which is funny, because Forming loving owns. "Blow me, Michael!" DashingGentleman fucked around with this message at Jun 25, 2012 around 19:21 |

I think I understand that terrible "My sentiments exactly," line now. It's not just awful dialogue, it's that that rear end in a top hat Terraciano cant let the comic end without Dominic having the last word. I'd be curious to know if the same thing happened every other time he had a big revelation where someone said something to him; did he do it then as well? I would have sworn that he said something like "Fascinating," after High Priestess Boobs McLOSTTREASURE said her stupid magic face poo poo.

I'm taking this in a different direction: the final boss of Dominic Deegan, the great evil of Terraccino's universe- it's Art, actual, competent Art. Seriously, The Beast! is becoming Vitruvian Man(an anatomical model), he's clearly a symbol of proper anatomy, which is wholly anathema to the Deegan Universe. It's only a matter of time before Dominic has to fight The Characters-in-Actual-Tensionmancer and King Mature-and-Respectful-Depiction-of-surprise sex.

Internet Kraken posted:It really is perfectly fitting for him to be a talimancer. I'd say he has a BSN account as well but I don't think he's passive aggressive enough for that place. I find it even more fitting that he enjoyed the ending to ME3. Sudden out-of-character moments, plot holes, big "revelations" that happen with no hints or warnings, awful dues ex machinas and a sudden main antagonist switch with a character never even mentioned before... I fully expect Mookie to right something similar to the ending of DD.

So it has a mouth, but talks from it's eye? Is the beast even mobile? He's in the same pose as last comic. I'm beginning to think he's literally from the jr. high sketchbook and Mookie thinks that any alteration, even in perspective, would be an insult.

The human form isn't even that great for combat. In fact, compared to an alarming amount of things on the planet, its incredibly outmatched. Why didn't the Beast become part tiger or great white shark or goliath bird-eating spider?

I just cannot get over how loving goofy that beast looks. Also, that's got to be the lamest villain speech I've heard in a long time. "Sure, you've easily beaten me in every single previous encounter, but this time it'll be different! Really! I swear!"

Gah. I am starting to loath the mindscape comics. It's always an excuse for Mookie to be inefficient with his panel space. I mean, take today where Dominic is looking at this stupid thing. And because Mookie can't draw that thing in a different pose or smaller, we now have to read the comic in a U. Also, thanks for telling us about those side characters instead of showing us. That's loving useful. I wanted to stare at your lovely Beast, jesus, vitruvian man thing. It looks loving static as hell and is now talking as much as Skeletor.

The flow of dialogue in this page is utter garbage. Dominic's speech bubbles are part of a completely different conversation until you realize that "influential family" he's talking about is that Masters. I tried reading this two different ways before actually getting to the right one. And I like how he decided to base it off the Vitruvian Man, but conveniently designed it to not have any hands or feet.

Well, considering how offhandedly King Dave dismissed those threats, it's at least consistent. On the other hand, there's no chance they will be mentioned again after, say, Friday. And brace yourself for more linky reminders!
