Now,is she the real one or "Lyn" is just trying to confuse him again?

This is straight up nightmare fuel,
I love this panel.

Oh and I made a thing

>Friday's strip
>It's like that bit in "Caravan of Courage" with the creature in the tree - "Holly" is just the end of another tongue.

It's highly likely that that Holly is some kinda fabricated bait, but I'd still think less of Wally if he didn't try and save her regardless.

what the fuck is even happening anymore

Endtown, Endtown is happening

just a few more panels before kirbros get BTFO

I have the feeling something tragic is going to happen.

I mean, more so than usual.

$20 says this is the real Lyn.

>the real Lyn

the real lyn is dead, hand over...

He's dead you gocomics poster

>gocomics poster

Wally soon it's going to know the wonders of the digestive system

So, who else would like the comic to continue in this particular drawing style? I think I like it more than the regular one.

you do just because it's new and kind of refreshing... eventually you are gonna start begging for the graytones, though.

I like it too, it gives the feeling that everything was shaded with a pencil. I actually think that the comic was draw like this before

i dunno if aaron could keep this kind of effort up. compared to digital shading. it looks really good though

I want it on color.

:^)

Yeah, I'm hoping this is the real Holly and she's not simply mutant monster Wally-bait attached to a tentacle made out of eyeballs, though either possibility is likely at this point.

Has there been any theory postulated that this has all been less of a ditto-based illusion and more of a shared-schism situation? The multiple view points of this whole 'flashback' arc make it seem a little obvious that this isn't all just coming from Holly's mind, but I am really hoping for some answers soon...

Well the world-spanning viewpoint of part of the flashback would point to certain of the memories the dittos have been reproducing coming from some kind of omnipresent entity... and the fact the dittos were simulating stuff nobody from the main crew was able to see suggests there's someone else watching who wanted to see the full-budget End-Of-The-World Show, complete with special effects and fancy wipes.

Nah, graytones seem flat and boring in comparison. Those shading lines are fucking great and Aaron knows how to use them. They give different texture to everything. Wally's hair are more, uhm, hairy, Lyn's skin seems more "slippery" with those very few lines on it and the shading on the teeth (white edges) makes them look really chompy.

Honestly, I'm loving it. This is some masterful traditional black and white comic art.

In a serious talk, I like the colors in the standlone pics that Aaron does but there're too tender for the comic

I waiting to see if there's was a explaination to the things that Holly couldn't see (ex. the missiles and the death of the turtle lady, if she was even real)

Any theories on what's to happen next week? Will Wally continue fighting big daddy boss Lyn? Will he save Holly? Will everythjng just end abruptly, and leave us with another cliffhanger?

Knowing Aaron, he'll most likely end tomorrow's week with a cliffhanger as well.

I'm starting to think something will happen to finalise the arc, and then all the ditto-stuff will just vanish and leave Wally, Holly, Kirbee, Chic and Irving all lying in the desert in whatever state, with the answer of what exactly was going on never really explained.

Kirbee will loudly claim she was right about the ship being "Hainted".

He's gonna try to rescue Holly to reliase that it was a trap and get swalled by ditto Lyn, maybe to be transported to another part of the ship

You know, I wouldn't be surprised. For all we know, that memory of him dying could have been a fabrication of another like how this user says: If I were to go along with your theory, Lyn could be in Holly's situation right now.
Holly lost her baby.
Lyn lost Holly.
Lyn could have been searching for Holly this whole time, and now that he's found her, he refuses to let go.

>with the answer of what exactly was going on never really explained
That sounds like a really shitty ending, building everything up to end with a "lol, it's a mystery" doesn't sounds like something Aaron would do

Hopefully it won't start retching up Hollys from all its' mouths.

>Wally is faced with a thousand Hollys
>A voice booms out
>"Find the real one. You have one chance."

What if... Ditto Lyn IS the ship.

>It's dittos
>Controlled by Sarah

Could be someone forcing Holly to re-watch the End of the World from a viewpoint bigger than her own. Kind of a way of saying "You think you're suffering from loss? The whole planet practically died. Get some perspective."

We were always seeing it from Holly's perspective since Wally and Co stepped through the "portal". When it switched to seeing the worldwide scope, it was through her eyes, being shown it by dittos. When we were with Wally and Co, it was because she was, at least in terms of "camera feed".

We switched back to the comic's usual anonymous perspective the moment Wally crawled out of the dust. This was signified by the switch in shading methods.

(Yes this means she saw the mid-air kiss)

>it's not Marx
>it's Farx

>Yes this means she saw the mid-air kiss

I can't wait to see that being brought up between Wally and Holly. Or Holly and Kirbee for that matter. The threads went crazy on the days before Wally entered the portal. With theories on weather she heard Wally mentioning the kiss or not.

Lyn blew the fuck up

Unless his rear head survived and regenerated, which is unlikely

This theory seems very likely, it's pretty obvious that the kiss would play a part in this arc. But then if this was about showing Holly the end of the world from other perspective, why he tried to kill Wally?

>This has all been some sort of elaborate test by Farx

No I'm with you user. I'm only theorizing based on that other user's theory. I believe Lyn is dead and kaput. End.

But there is one other mystical being within these flashbacks, that's for sure.

Its probably Marx/Farx whos pulling all the strings again.

Or perhaps a evil alternate reality Marx that just want to watch the world burn.

>other mystical being
>it's another magical guy
How bad it could be?

My issue with this theory is that --apart from yes, Lyn exploded-- even for Endtown, it seems a little too coincidental that after escaping a cannibalism-based society our heroes are lured into a trap by the mutated remnants of a loved one from their past --who hasn't been introduced prior to this arc-- without any hints leading up to the reveal.

Or rather, if Aaron was gonna do this, Lyn would have been involved in a prior story arc. Otherwise it feels like a complete ass-pull without proper set up. You can show us a monster and reveal/imply that it's just a poor kid who mutated into a gastropod, chasing after the heroes because Holly picked up its stuffed animal. But you can't pull the curtain back to reveal a character we've never seen before this arc get revealed as the master mind.

Sarah is more likely (if at all) to fit this position, or the Doctor from Utopia who was working with the dittos, or hell, even Sparkplug could make a reappearance but at this point I'm having a hard time thinking this has been caused by any one antagonist from the past.

Holly's mind breaking free of the Dittos' hold and the feedback from the psychic link screwing up their programming? Perhaps axe-Lyn/shoggoth-Lyn is the ditto equivalent of a blue screen of death, and getting worse...

>Utopia

you mean unity?

I see it, it's possible that the mastermind was losing the control and he get nervous and have to improvise

someone call me when this fucking snoozefest of an arc is over.

>someone call me

Unity, sorry. But yeah, them.

Suule is banned...

F.

F.

This.

Lyn was blown the fuck up by buddi bombs. And if he survived that, how the fuck did he survive all the other zero bombs that were dropped a few hours later?
No chance this is the real Lyn.....none.

>implying it is
This arc maybe is not as great as the others, but it not that bad either. Stop overracting

I knowed he was fucked with censorship or not

he's probably just a kirbeefag triggered at the sight of holly.

If there's a problem with this arc, it's the pacing, but Aaron really can't help make the scheduling go any faster without killing himself . I'm sure when this arc is finished, if one were to shotgun the whole thing the narrative would work a good deal better.

F ;_;7

Nah, I know some guys just want to go to Endtown right now but they have to understand that this is part of the plot, I get that things were moving pretty slow right now but I prefer a slow and entendible story than a rushed flashback

If anything, this arc really got fucked thanks the three at week updates you can see that Aaron tried to tell more than he could with the limited space he has. It definily read better once finished

No

So is it true the next arc is going to be about Linda?

Also, is Aaron going to be taking a break to write said arc like he did for the last one?

Whoooooooooo the fuck knows

>So is it true the next arc is going to be about Linda?
I hear that actually Maude was going to be the next protagonist , but it's more likely that it's gonna be Dottie and Walt or maybe a new character.

>Also, is Aaron going to be taking a break to write said arc like he did for the last one?
?, Aaron didn't take a hiatus after Unity ended I think you are speaking of that time he was in the hospital

Was that when he went to writing the horror stories?

I think those were old comics that he did before Endtown, he just uploaded them because, acording to him, they have some relation with the story and also because like I said he was in the hospital

Welp, now we are getting horrific.

Wow, nice arguments there.

Next arc is dottie walt, also aaron doesn't takes hiatuses when he finishes his arcs, he just keeps going... the ride never ends

I hadn't heard either of those things.

>Morbi takes hiatuses after each chapter and breaks to work on his porn comics
>Kazerad takes hiatuses after each update
>Aaron never takes hiatuses unless he's having health issues
>Aaron's comic is the least popular and constantly gets shat on by people who take it at face value

do you think we'll ever get a story arc from the point of view of topsiders. Sounds like a fun idea

I don't think that's gonna happen, I'm sure aaron mentioned aomething about it and why it would be a bad idea... not sure though

>digital shading
hey this is fun!

He already talked about it... it won't happen no even in 1 million of years

Looks like Junji Ito

It's the way everything is shaded isn't

I was thinking that too.

>the hatching
>horrorbeast
>wide-eyed looks of terror
>A SPIRAL

WHAT ARE YOU AARON?!

Ouch that sucks

I guess this comic is 100% furry road

ahem

>Aaron Neathery doesn't exist he is just an alias that Junji use to work is this side project

Is that from the Flask flashback right? I wouldn't call that a topsider arc

The point is that there really isn't much for a topsider arc. Its like fallowing around a bunch of Nazi zip lock bags.

Which brings the question:

Just WHAT the fuck Lyn is? Is he a near-omnipotent super special mutant that can survive explosions? Is he a god now?

lucranian

I actually started a Topsider fic but I got lazy.

do a fap fic

A ditto construct generated from Holly's madness.

It really is all her fault.

>from Holly's madness

is this actually confirmed? i see a lot of people claiming this but there's no real evidence... is there?

How long have you been waiting to make a "Holly is behind it all" post?

With that shirt and hairstyle, that dog could be easily the canine version of Wally

I'm getting too confused for this shit.

What is so confusing about this?

What is going on here? What is real and what is an illusion? how do people control the... damn, I forgot - those nanomachine guys who create illusions.

Perhaps it would be easier to follow if I didn't have to wait a few days for each new panel. panel

You can always re-read it, you know.
