Scary Go Round

A lovely Mildred to kick off your new year.

Seems like Bad Machinery is proper over now huh, and our Mystery Teens have now joined the SGR cast proper

Lottie needs to be older damnit.

I feel like we've left Tim and Scout too soon though. I would have like them to have it out and try for some kind of resolution, even if it just cements bad shit in the future

How much older are you talking about

At least a heartfelt discussion between the two that’s remembered at least subconciously that changes Tim. As it is now we’ve gotten no indication that anything’s changed, that storyline had no greater impact outside of being told and maybe changing our perspective on some characters

No. They're already growing up too fast :

That would have made for a wicked finale as Tim’s two troubled tots terminate Tackleford

Wow can't beleive this is still going, I used this read this like a decade ago

It’s taken on some new forms, it was Bad Machinery for a while, focusing on kid/teen investigators, probably my favorite stuff Allison ever did

My bet is that Mildred will find out they’re moving to Wendlefield and is campaigning to get the WenTack road done so she can visit her friends without the Infinite Gyre

I hope they address the lingering romantic tension between her and Jack

>that adoring gaze

Who is Linton looking at?

I prefer the mystert kids. I wish we stuck with them over shelley.

>twf the site doesn't open

>and our Mystery Teens have now joined the SGR cast proper
That's a shame, I have zero interest in SGR and think John Allison's attachment to those characters has been overall detrimental to his ongoing comics. Its as dense as reading Claremont X-Men these days.

Given the look of mild shock and confusion Id say Des. Have they met before? I cant recall if they have.

ROAD-HEAD?

Linton
>looks concerned/nervous
>hunched over
>stuck between Little Claire and Esther

He’s hiding a boner and hoping nobody notices

Every strip I see makes me hate GD Esther a little more, and for that I'm grateful

Remember, she’s the protagonist, not the hero.

Giant Days is more about a hot goth fuck up and the idiots in her orbit than anyone you’d actually want to root for

It’s stupid she’s portrayed as so attractive as to be irresistible to people but she still wants to get a literature degree instead of just skipping to a modeling or porn career

I don’t think they’ve met Des. Though it wouldn’t be too unusual compared to what they’ve seen. And he did run for mayor

What?

She grows on you, Allison writes all his characters with enough charm, it’s just that Esther had a lot of immediate good will as the perky goth and when it turned she’s got a lot of work to get back in everyone’s good graces.

Lottie is looking at badly disguised The Boy.

Lottie doesn’t seem like she’s looking at anything in particular.

What do you think of Esutace’s new look? Erin really does love him if she’s willing to let him look like that

Who’s the best couple in Scary Go Round?

THE FISH IS GONE hopefully for good

Fluffy sideburns Eustace is far and away the best of all possible Eustace

She really is suffering in the latest issue.

Erin and Eustace looked really cute in that arc, such cutie redheads. Looking back, their romantic arc was pretty fantastic, and definitely enough to wash the stink of Esther away.

Whats happened recently?

I’m glad Erin and Eustace are together, they make a great couple I only wish they rubbed it in Esther’s face at the party

She moved in with a bunch of guys after her friends ditched her? She’ll be fine. It’s Ed that’s suffering and he’s a fucking cuck

>Ed didn't move in with the bros and the Amazon who wants to fuck him
fucking Ed

Our of the entire cast of Giant Days I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t deserve their suffering.

Except maybe McGraw, because while he “cheated” on his Spanish girlfriend all he did was hang out with Susan a bunch, there was a no touching policy in place

Call me an idiot but have Erin and Eustace dyed their hair from red to blonde?

Eustace was always blond but Erin is still ginger

Web version or print version?

the transition from Mike standing in the first panel to sitting in a chair across from Erin is a little weird, but assertive Mike characterization is better

Mildred Sonny and Shauna are definitely blonde, I always thought Eustace was like, strawberry blond or red

Agreed, and where are you getting these fine print scans?

Which is which? Also the version where Mike walks in is better because why would Paula leave Mike in charge without telling him

New page! The Wendlefield Road is surprisingly busy. Will this be an SGR story or a Bad Machinery story in disguise, like Case of the Missing Piece where there was no mystery

>assertive Mike characterization is better

Disagree. Mike's dominent character trait, back to his first appearance, was world weariness.
Erin bullying him into submission is fitting.

>Road isn't Mildred's pet name for Jack's Inoffensiveness.

Disappointed.

>Jack’s Inoffensiveness

Took me a moment

It can still be, just give it time

Top, web.
Bottom, print.

>why would Paula leave Mike in charge without telling him

She didn't. Erin was just being annoying to set him up for her request to print Forbidden Material.

Small changes recontextualise everything

Now we just gotta keep this thread up till the next one

After Hard Yards I’m mostly reading SGR hoping Jack and Mildred get together

Lottie a cute!

You’re goddamn right

Delicious flat Mildred
