Ah yes, because nothing puts an end to love like... uh... dealing with a person you're into when they're having a bad time, physically.

I'm sorry has Szark never been with anyone in any context other than bedroom sexbanging and never dealt with the day-to-day of the fact that someone's body can sometimes be gross? How is someone who's supposed to come from Hedonism: The City, never seen someone he's hosed vomit before?

Is Szark's obsession just like... some random infatuation? Was it entirely physical? But Dominic isn't even terribly att--no, that's not fair, everyone looks exactly the same how can you even figure out who's attractive in this?

WHY would he draw Dominic with a REAL face for ONE PANEL and then go back to snoutfaces? Of everything that doesn't make sense especially. WHY. It isn't even a super important dramatic pivotal scene it's some random panel.

I'm going to lose my mind.

Szark's kink is violent murder so he's particular about the bodily fluids he's turned on by. Entrails, yes; vomit, hell no.

Yeah, Szark really does come across as a loving shallow weirdo for falling out of love with someone because they threw up while being ravaged by a virus. It's not like Dominic did something intentionally disgusting.

Even beyond his murder kink he must be a terrible lover.

Of course he didn't name her, that thing was written based on lovely facebook posts you scroll past. It's not meant to make you actually engage, just to feel mysterious enough that it tricks you into thinking you've thought about something deep and profound.

I don't think the scroll is an inconsistency; We've seen the ship crash and disintegrate, and we've seen her arrive with a new one, but I think this is the first time we've ever seen her summon it into being.

Seems likely that this is just how she brings it back into existence if she decides to dismiss it instead of crashing it into things or letting it fly around forever.

Uyghurs situation in Xinjiang? Just a police action, do not fret. Not ongoing genocide like in EVIL Canada.

I am definitely not a tankie.
This whole thing has had this very cuddly, safe and unchallenging vibe to it. Like it's Mookie playing a pretend game where his surrogate gets to bang quirky ladies and wander around getting stuff handed to him.

I'm betting the pandemic's been just as rough on him as the few blog posts he's made have suggested, and this entire thing just turned into comfortporn to keep him going. It has the meandering confusion of a porn plot but instead of sex there's proud motherly gazes, casual naked cuddling, and everyone telling him what a good boy he is.

And there's the weird amount of hugging. They're all constantly hugging Snout. If it's an emotional reunion they're hugging, if something dramatic happens they hug, if they spend an hour apart so one of them can go shopping? Big hug the second they're back together. Like people keep holding Snout like this in what are casual conversations.

Thats such an awkward way to "hug" lol, especially the orc guy panels. Just going to gently cup my male friends titties from the side

The real answer is that all of those panels are copy/pasted with minor edits. They hug a lot because mookie doesnt want to draw more interactions.

Like I said, at some point it's possible Mookie will never have to draw a full pose again once he builds up enough stock poses. It's so glaringly obvious and distracting that even people who LIKE the comic have to be annoyed by now.

BTW, the title for the first printed volume of The Legacy is "Curious".

Did you upload the same image twice for the first and fifth picture, or was it re-used as-is in the comic itself? I know the answer deep in my heart but I want to make certain.

The second book is going to be named "Kindness." In it, someone gets healed of mental illness by his mere presence, and then he sulks because her doctor was kind of rude to him, and later he's present while another of his friends is grieving.

The elbow spike changing between frames is cracking me up way more than it should. He's clearly tracing/copy pasting so why isn't he consistent in that one tiny element.

I like that in all the times he used that panel he never fixed any of the small/weird details like Snout's concave arm or IW's underbite, either of which would take possibly even less time than hitting ctrl+c/ctrl+v

Buckley has made enormous improvements in being a person in general, in the politoons thread someone posted a series of strips where the Xbox robot dealt with gender identity and it was pretty positive. It's a hell of a lot better than anything Mookie has done with gender identity.
