Being reminded of loved ones long gone is never easy. Sure we can learn to let them go and remember them fondly, but deep down, missing them will never stop hurting.
Remind me?
Comics like this (GOOD comics) serve as an escape mechanic so I can spend half an hour in another world cheering on my favorite heroes or puzzling out the mechanics of the universe (real or otherwise) so I don't have to think about the harsh reality that is my life.
Some of us want to remember good times with old friends, some of us just want to be told we'll live long enough to make friends. If you have a friend who's medically fucked, try to give him/her something to smile about anyway. The only thing worse then dieing is dieing miserable.
Ah, the 'technical anti- denile" where you try to deny something, then just have to bring up the "technicalities", which are, usually, only tiny pieces of the actual reason, but easy to get blown out of proportion.
You know what would have been really, really awesome in that page? If, on the second-to-last panel, when Francis is seeing Nelly's mother in place of Nelly, the image shifts from one to the other, like a flash of flashback, like in your older pages with a bit of Flash animation. Something more basic, but nonetheless awesome.
What does it remind me of? The strange, strange dynamic that I have with both friends and foes. Truth be told though, it tends to be more fun to watch.
Also, dearest baker; thank you for keeping this comic up for so long! It's defenately one of the highlights of my schedule, and if it ended, I'd be left with dangerous amounts of free time, probably being spent on far less interesting (or hilarious) tasks. You have done a truly great deed.
Sooooo, is maggot Nellys favorite insult? She sure uses it often. Well, it could be that she only used it 2 times now.xD I need to read through the comic again sometime soon...
I don't think I have ever encounter something like FFC before, it doesn't really remind me of anything, maybe thats the reason why I got hooked so fast and hard.
Maybe I'm gonna add a new comment later if I can think of something.
