Wally is indeed being a bit cruel. If the residents of Endtown found out about them – and what happened to Albion West – they’d be homicidal so these two are getting off very light.
I don’t think Wally is showing attitude, really. I think the dialog and reaction are actually very realistic. Wally and every other ‘cute anthro’ got there involuntarily and has had it hard ever since. We have been calling these two “closet furries.” I just think Wally is reacting the way the rest of the world (i.e., “normal people”, who were mutated against their will) would toward those who would actually want to mutate. Think of the attitude hewmans in our world have toward toward furries. They think they’re weird.How would you react?
…and remember, we (and Wally) still haven’t been told why they were so interested in the mutants’ ‘fast healing’ capability. In another sense, they really aren’t “into furry,” but are here against their will.The complexity to this situation exemplifies what I love about this comic!
I don’t think Wally is being mean, more like good natured ribbing. He is enjoying the moment, though. Keep in mind there was an enormous amount of trust involved in helping them transform. He could have as as easily killed them. They’ve been through a lot together already just escaping from Albion West.
“Think of the attitude hewmans in our world have toward toward furries. They think they’re weird.”
No worse than Trekkies or people who take off their shirts and paint themselves before sitting in the end zone during a December NFL game in Cleveland.
One Cracker Jack prize to open, the other awaits till next week.Wonder is Jim is going to go into Schism right after he gets that suit off??I am siding with TSOJ.Pissy Chipmunks.
I don’t think Wally’s being cruel as much as being cynical about the situation, which he’s been through. It’s the natural reaction of trying to defuse a bad situation through humor.
I don’t know if we have ever gotten any indication of how elastic those suits are. Are those large ears folded over or small horns? Most animal ears would not be stiff enough to stand out on their own. My impression is that he has become a panda bear.

Leprosy worked fine for three millenium, but some rich guy must have paid someone to a campaign to Hansen’s Disease.

I wonder who bought the right to rename leprosy, and what other dread diseases could be purchased and renamed for someone one intensely dislikes.For instance, if one wanted to change the name of say, gonorrhea, scurvy, or dysentery to honor someone particulaly memorable, and remove some of the negative connotations attached to its current name, what would that cost?It’s okay, my mind is old enough and big enough to wander off by itself, as long as I don’t actually do anything crazy.

I had no idea there was a new name for leprosy. My understanding is that diseases are generally named for the physician that first described it. An exception would be shrapnel, which was named for a soldier that died from it but that’s not so much a disease as a bunch of stuff that flew through the air and hit someone..I knew armadillos could get leprosy, but I didn’t know they could transmit it. Now I don’t feel so bad about all the armadillos I’ve run over.

So yes, I agree Clive may have flipped allegiances, or he is a bit of an existentialist, possibly with daubs of solipsism and nihilism, or maybe Clive is part of a secret, um, Brain Trust(?ooh, bad). And several machines may have risen up to crush their oppressors. They may even accept allies from the mutant tribes. I can’t help but believe, that after defeating the TopSiders, some machines may try to convince mutants of the freedom from bodily restraints.

As far as needs, the one issue for transporters is supplies replenishment. Clive needs energy to move and operate his airscout the fuel for that energy apparently comes from the “charging station” that Petey and his love met at. There would also be other substances, like the stuff that feeds Clive’s head and provides the materials to the self repair module. This could be some sort of energy to matter thing (which would suggest massive amounts of energy like a matter/antimatter reactor) or base materials to be used in the SRM and head support unit. By joining with Jim, Sarah, Wally & Holly, Clive has cut off his access to these things. The need for the things that sustain his life may lead Clive to try to get back into his former masters’ good graces.
