Can anybody tell me why Zimmy says that Annie is no different from the elf kids? She didn’t get the sarcasm in Annie’s say about “not harassing Zimmy usually” and took offense or something? I thought Zimmy considers Annie her friend to some extent, why is she again rude with her? Don't worry, it's not just you! I think it's meant to be rather confusing and bizarre; what Zimmy's saying doesn't seem rational, it's just lashing out at her friends while she's in pain; she's in a state where she's convinced that the entire world is exclusively designed to make her suffer, in spite of all the evidence to the contrary she's been given in the past. It's like there's someone with a long, troubled, history, and then for a while you start to think that's everything's finally gotten better and they're OK, but then this one big disaster happens and suddenly they start acting exactly like they did before all the positive change happened. An unfortunately common human phenomenon, if you ask me. |

Annie was the catalyst to current Kat's godhood blossoming is what I'll always believe the storyline is. Zimmy needed to be on the boat to accelerate Kat's creation growth. And anyone could blame Annie for all their trouble and be at least partially right Annie is Tony Stark ironically |

An unfortunately common human phenomenon, if you ask me. I hope I understood correctly how to respond to posts here (by clicking on “quote”-button?) and this answer-post will work. Thank you for such a detailed and full of psychological analysis explanation! If all (or at least the most of) our, fans’, assumptions about such moments of sometimes complex psychological background in the comic correspond to Mr. Sidell’s ideas, I can only once again gladly admire the thoughtfulness and profundity of this work of art. |

Anyone could blame Annie for all their trouble and be at least partially right Annie is Tony Stark ironically This is MAGNIFICENT.
I shall take this rule to heart for the entire duration of the rest of the comic.

And anyone could blame Annie for all their trouble and be at least partially right Annie is Tony Stark ironically With this kind of logic you can also put the blame on Anja, who gave Kat the key to the warehouse, on Surma, who wanted Annie to be sent to GKC, on all the robots without whose support Kat wouldn't have come nearly as far in her work, on Gamma, without whom Zimmy never would have set a foot on this boat, et cetera et cetera et cetera... |

Ultimately the blame is on us, the readers. Especially us Patrons. |

I trace it all the way back to Hermes Trismegistus, by way of Paracelsus, Roger Bacon, Isaac Newton, Abulafia, and Abu Musa, personally  |

Look, I've been looking for a universal scapegoat for YEARS here, don't go spoiling it by introducing logic into this.
Personally, I'm looking forward to the day when the Court will finally hold Annie accountable for her roles in starting a global pandemic, getting Trump elected, inciting a violent riot at the US Capitol, and inventing the "Fun-size" label for candy bars, among other things.

I thought Zimmy considers Annie her friend to some extent, why is she again rude with her? She's almost certainly not in her most rational state of mind. Edit: Whoops, I guess I should have checked page 2 of the thread, as this was already said. |
