Tom played us all and it was glorious. Yeah. He even plans these so that they come out Friday, he just so loves us doing all that Sherlock Holmes work and debate his comic over the weekend. Can't tell if being serious, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't do that. I think someone asked on the FS one time.

One page in about eight minutes! Not bad at all. I think that even the last discussion thread took longer to ramp up than that.

..yeah, picked the first line for the thread title. The feels. I lost too, because I titled mine 'Jenny'. Yeah, you hasty little cheat you! I really feel my "we gotta do karaoke or somethin'?" was the best thread title. On another note, "why helloooo." ...ooh how annoying. She doesn't even know she's just a substitute for the crazy girl.

Personally, my dream for this chapter is that Zimmy does indeed show up, toss MAL overboard, then reject Jack for his philandering (or, for optimists, reconcile with him and ride off into the sunset). Anyone with me?

Here we go This just confirms that the precedent page was purposefully crafted into making people thinking it was Jenny, Tom you sly fox ! hmmm... yes, because that page reaaally shouted "JENNY!" all over it, especially as we had never been given that name. I meant Zimmy, derp >.<

This is obviously all part of Jack's long-term plan to switch out Jenny for Zimmy without Gamma noticing the difference.

Also rubs it in with those 38 people who thought it was Zimmy haha no offense, gentle forum-goers; I'm just relieved Zimmy didn't end up with Jack like that

@dedalo Still, I wouldn't mind Zimmy in that dress if it meant scary teen vs raptor throwdowns.

I had nothing against any other part of it, but was so uncomfortable with the thought that Zimmy would have turned into a lame linking park goth babe. [just realized I'm potentially insulting a whole bunch of goth girls who listen to linking park, and I'm sorry, that's not intended]

I wonder how Jack will reply when Jenny's all like "What boat trip did you take with that harpy?!"
"Oh bae, you know back when I was spider-crazy? I took her out to the ether extracting station on a crap rowboat. She ended up driving. And I totally caught her demon-in-plushie-form friend..." etc etc
(" ...and then I flew away.")

"Helloooo" Obviously Jenny spends too much time around Boxbot! This page made me laugh so hard, then even harder when I read Tom's comment. No; Jack tried to create a Boxbot - Jones hybrid. Things can only go well. I also laughed quite heavily at today's page, although the glance Jenny gives in her final appearance on the page makes her looks really scary. Reminds me of the girl out of "The Ring", for some reason.

Heh. Annie's face in the last panel suggests that hadn't even occurred to her... Also I don't like Jack very much after this. Jenny seems like a fairly normal (goth) girl who senses that Jack and Annie have a Past and is hostile because of that.
An (unlikely) theory: Jack is trying to signal to Annie that he's given up on Zimmy and is 'on the market' while simultaneously playing hard-to-get.

But we're been wating for this because of the last page, so this kind of counts to the effect. I doubt this will go to the lengths of the last thread, because there's less place for investigation and debate.

Do people think Jenny's being hostile? Other than the over-the-shoulder glance in the second-to-last panel (which could be meaningless), she didn't really do much in the way of... anything really. If anything, Carver's back to her standoffish aloofness. ('night again, fwip)

Watch Tom double-troll Wednesday by having Annie say something like 'Oh, didn't you hear that Zimmy changed her name recently?' "Helloooo" Obviously Jenny spends too much time around Boxbot! This page made me laugh so hard, then even harder when I read Tom's comment. Maybe boxbot is the only one in the Court to match her intelligence? okay, I know, that was rude. I think we all have a new least-favorite character! (Boxbot's not a character; he's an abomination. There's a distinction.)

But we're been wating for this because of the last page, so this kind of counts to the effect. I doubt this will go to the lengths of the last thread, because there's less place for investigation and debate. Yes, your point? I had thought of both of those things when I posted. I think that this thread will be larger than the average discussion thread, and probably the next few will, at least until natural selection applies to the lurkers. Why do people think Jenny's being hostile? Other than the over-the-shoulder glance in the second-to-last panel (which could be meaningless), she didn't really do much in the way of... anything really. If anything, Carver's back to her standoffish aloofness. Jenny seemed quite stiff. Compare her expression to the expression in the last panel. I like how Annie handled this situation - letting Kat react for her, although it probably wasn't intentional, it was a great way to make Jack uncomfortable and to react to the relationship without getting involved herself. Although, she looks pretty clueless in the last panel.

If anything, Carver's back to her standoffish aloofness. ('night again, fwip) I'm don't know whether she is being hostile, but I think that the overall appearance makes her look like she is. It's mainly that I cannot see much of her face besides a small part of one eyebrow (that is pointing downwards, making it look like she's cross),the wider part of one eye, which makes her look like she's glaring, and possibly some of her mouth (which would be set in, at most, a neutral expression).
