It would actually be cool if he was a pagemaster, but Mookie isn’t that clever and we’ve seen Arudak control ink before too

We have. I don't think there's any consistency in this, though.

Oh good, as if the non-consensual nakedcuddling and invading his dreams wasn't bad enough, it looks like the Ink Witch just sexually assaulted Snout with her powers and left him with his rear end up in the air.

I’m surprised people seem to be taking away that Snout was assaulted in some way, cause when I look at this page I just see a blank void. And y’now, I think Mookie does too. I think he had one thing he wanted to do this week and could only stretch it out to one page tops, so to extend this unbearable bloodletting he thought it’d be funny if Snout got hit by something. I don’t think this ink blob ties into anything or represents anyone and he’s in a race to the end with the heat death of the universe.

Snout, while naked, is ambushed by a giant dong with a smaller dong on the end of it, bowled over and knocked down as the thing crawls all over him, and is left drenched in cum with his rear end in the air. Adding in inkwich's history of sexually abusive behavior, I don't feel like any of us is reaching here when we draw this conclusion.

Like with Bumper being asleep naked in Sturtz's bed in the Erossus arc, Mookie's intent might not have been for him to get raped here, but that's what he's conveyed with what's actually on the page.

Oh I wouldn't call it reaching, Mookie's a lil fuckin' weirdo and there's often these weird sexual undertones whether he intends it or not. But I didn't expect this page to actually have any relevance to what's going on and is just him making GBS threads these out pure stream of consciousness. Looking at the next page Snout is already dry and there's no reason given for why he was attacked by ink, so you could cut Monday entirely and not miss a beat.



And we've officially hit the point where Snout's speaking out loud.

I like how even in a dream, which presumably does not involve hearing at all, Snout can't tell what they're actually saying.

Whoa, something might actually happen!

Most likely prediction: Snout wakes up on Friday, naked, next to Corpse Bride. They keep walking for three more weeks.

Slightly less likely prediction: Snout summons his "Endings" sign to stop Ink Witch and Arudak from fighting. They look shocked to see him, Ink Witch tries to hug him, then he wakes up, naked. Friday is him writing in his diary about how he had a vision of Arudak and the Ink Witch fighting and this makes him sad. Corpse Bride goes missing for two panels again, reappears, punches Snout, the walk for three more weeks.

Even less likely: Snout stops the fighting with his "Endings" sign, the Ink Witch and Arudak explain the plot to him with giant ink dream letters.

Least likely: As Snout looks on with a sad face, the fight is stopped by Corpse Bride punching Arudak and the Ink Witch.

If you look back she used to have full bush, but Mookie changed his mind and now both she and corpsemommy have this pube moustache and I find it WAY weirder of a choice than natural or totally bald. Pubes DO NOT grow this way. The only way this happens is if you shave them specifically like that for your role in a 70s porno.

My guess? He still wants the internet clout points for showing bodies with natural hair, but he REALLY wants to jack off to some visible pussy lips. So he split the difference.

It's like the man's never observed the shape of a human arm in his life, which is incredible when there's one in his field of view every time he draws one of these.
He really bungles the torsos, too. At times, there is a complete absence of curvature from the upper to lower back. The panel where Corpse Bride is on Snout's back during the scuffle here really shows this off, she has shoulder blades running straight into her rear end and the overall shape of a pill bug:

If she wasn't wearing her hat, you wouldn't be able to tell who she was. The sexy lamp has no defining characteristics aside from her lampshade.

On that note, if you want to see a comic that plays with dream logic in a really fun and mind-bending way, check out Power Nap: https://www.powernapcomic.com/

... Or, well, check it out once the archives are fixed, as at the moment the only thing up is a preview of the author's next comic, and trying to load any pages of Power Nap just gives you a broken page. But I promise it's REALLY GOOD

God this is so much better in every way. It actually trusts the audience to understand what's going on.

Edit: with everyone dunking on Ready Player Two I think a point can be made that neither Mookie or Ernest Cline actually trust their audiences--Cline with his incredibly obvious references to the most popular movies/music of the 80's and Mookie with his, well...everything
