Endtown by Aaron Neathery for April 27, 2016

So, yes, I can certainly see why Holly has a troubled mind.

The manure is spreading.

For sure she has.This is escalates really fast.

Uh oh. The gated (er, fenced) community is now open to the masses. Well, there goes the neighborhood…. ;-)

Holly realized it was still LYN. How Horrible! I bet Holly blames herself for that too.

At 1st I didn’t even See Holly, and I counted 6 Buddiboms. His feet are more like hands, the big toe grasping in a way only a apes can do. Looks like an ape foot anyway.I hope nobody notices the large mouse yelling in the grass. She better go back inside.

And all of the Buddy Bombs said “YAY”. Good bye Lyn!

At least Lyn is out of his misery now. Not so for Holly.

I missed a few guesses, maybe got one or two correct. But I would bet Holly has been filmed by Apex Security cameras here, and Robbie is sort of aware Lyn mutated, but Robbie is almost definitely an agent for Apex. This is the second time Apex security cameras will link Holly to domestic terror operations. I expect Apex to issue a bulletin for the apprehension of Holly Hollister and an unidentified giant mousewoman, for questioning in a domestic terrorism case. Is it wrong to note Holly is single now? And dangerourous

Time for Flamethrowers and Blood Tests for everyone. Can’t be too safe when monsters are roaming around.

I noticed he was still mutating in the last strip. He had hands and now he has/had paws?

That little “yay” from the Buddibomb just kills me. Oof.

Who is going to clean up the mess? Yuck! This makes my skin crawl!

Lyn got blown up before his size could change. The monstrous mutants usually changed form first and then grew to a vast size. Poor Holly, that image of Lyn being blown to bits has seared itself into her memory as well as that of their mutated, dead child. Learning about this via the dittoes will impell Wally as well as Kirbee & Chick to help Holly heal from these awful memories.

Ain’t that just like a man.. Going off at the worst times!

There is a degree of narrative direction at work here too. The now-holed fence gives holly a chance at escape she wouldn’t have had earlier.

wonder who that is in the car that just got splattered with Lyn-powder.

Its hard to tell, since his head is upside down, but it looks like he’s grimmacing waiting for that happy little bomb to go off.

Buddibombs are just about the coolest little explosives I’ve seen in a while.

Have allready seen others of the giant monsters retaining their humanity – even to an extend. Like the little girl that got shot at the start …

In spite of all this, Holly did find some happiness before, even if it probably required her to repress a lot of memories. I hope Wally and Kirbee are able to help her heal. I’d like to see her happy again.

I have a feeling we are seeing the end of Holly as these memories are coming back.

I understand this is important background info, but its really disturbing. I tuned into this comic cause it was clever and funny, its not been either for a long time. Its been sad and disturbing. Not sure how much more of this i can take.

And it looks like it’d be a pretty big gory mess, too…

silversummer, not all the mutant monsters came in super size. In one of the early strips a TS mutated to something very small. So small another TS stepped on him like a bug.

Lyn’s suffering maybe over… But, I fear Holly’s suffering has only just begun.To all of you out there who think that it can’t get any worse for Holly, wait and see…

Given her association with four mutations, authorities might decide Holly is a kind of Typhoid Mary. They might be right, if she was infected by the mutant in the woods. She and three people she’s had close contact with (Lyn, Ethel, and the baby) mutated around the same time, indicating an incubation period, and who knows how many other people she’s touched are mutating about now. Finding out she’s turning all her friends and family into animals and monsters is how this could get worse.

If the explosion WAS enough to kill Lyn, then the “Lyn” that has been staring at Wally is either a construct, or Robby, Lyn and Holly’s 4-legged servant.

Looks like Holly is standing in the destroyed door of the house.

Just how many Buddibombs were all over Lyn? Just how many were left?

Oh, for the people saying that Lyn is closing his eyes and waiting for the blast in panel 3 – I think not. That’s the head at the end of his tail. It’s whapping his face up against the fence, while one of the BuddiBombs © has one leg twisted into his mouth and another leg trying to grab hold to the inside of his ear. Lyn is just trying to keep his eyes from bring gouged out as he races up the fence.

The flamingos are the key. They’re everywhere. Watching. Waiting.

Now come the cleaners in oddly familiar sealed suits.

So Wally… any thoughts on your relationship now that you’ve seen Holly’s ex?

go through not over

The hole in the fence can provide Holly with an escape route. If found by the police, it’s pretty much all over.

I wonder if Marx was talking about the Fitzgerald being the first finest sailing vessel ever converted to an aircraft.

Based on the Sparky story line, I would gather that some mutations survived to be rounded up and eventually herded into the stadium to be vaporized. Holly may have been one that escaped at tne end

This is a weird, very weird, but delightful “comic”. I used to enjoy “Plastic Man”, so I appreciated the weird in my youth. I just forgot….

She’s a plague mouse now. Humans coming into contact with her suffering an emotional upset will have mutation trigger.

Everybody’s talking about plague—-I thought it was the Amesworth radiation that caused the mutations.

fascinating…..

I was wondering where today’s comic was?Did I miss something?What controls when a person mutates? It seems Holly changed right after being with her snake friend. Then Lyn changed after being with mouse Holly. Was it coincidence?
