Welllll I’m going to hope that Neathery isn’t about to take this storyline in the direction I instinctively feared it might go in, he’s a bit of a pessimist but he’s never seemed to be anything worse than that. While the clear jab at antifascism makes me cringe, I suppose the rats aren’t technically cops, and due to their conspicuous same-species nature they may not even have elected to take up their jobs in the first place. They’ve always been jokes before, so taking time to humanize them is a nice new plot thread. All that said, I still can’t help but miss when Endtown was more of a story about surviving, than a story about dying. Perhaps it’s just not a comic for me anymore, but I suppose we’ll have to wait and see.
Dang, I had to go real far back to remember what Duffy and Chic’s relationship was. Turns out I’d forgotten a whole lot of how this arc started- feels like it was a lifetime ago. Almost literally a completely different person now.
Wild, I forgot this guy looked so realistic upon his introduction. Now, I wonder if this is just Neathery getting used to drawing him, or if he underwent a physical shift into a more cardoodle-esque form over time?
Just occurred to me, I wonder if the reason the sun goes supernova at the moment everything changes in this universe, is because it was alive in this cartoon universe, and underwent a transformation of its own?
