| Thanks for the welcomesssssssss. I am always a tired potato. @-@ Perpetually tired. Perpetually potato. It was not the destiny I chose, but the destiny that chose me.
P.S: I thought Isaac was staring at his lunchtray because the purple glop was a spirit. It took me a good second to realize he was doing an anime-protagonist style flashback. |

| Isaac is /so/ anime. Literally all of it, all of the anime.
Isaac took up so much of the comics' anime that Max had to take the off-the-shelf Dream Sequence Flashback option to get his backstory glimpse done last chapter. |

| Cornisaac don't need your warm dogs. Please lady. He has anime-face-closeups to do and speeches about friendship to give. |

| Hey, a bunch of people I met at some point on this forum are back after not being here a while! Hooray!
I personally have not been here because school just started and also video games.
Isaac will probably regret not eating anything at lunch, I think.
On another note, the lunch lady seems really nice! I wonder if Zack gave her a story irrelevant to the plot. (You know, like a backstory to flesh her out since she appears on multiple panels and pages or something.) |

| Between the scene having cut back to Isaac and Mr. Garcias' weird behavior, I'm suddenly concerned that I may have been on the right track thinking Isaac could be vulnerable to a... Hijacking.
Also, contextually suggested vegetarianism! What a nice tidbit of character information!
::Edit:: Taking a look at Blathers avatar, Isaac is seen eating a salad. He was trying to tell us all along. Blathers, you genius! |

| I was already pleased with the new page for bringing about a new character fact, but now that I see it's even been hinted at before I'm like ?!? Bless you Zack ;-;
Not too say I'm not excited for some more Issac/Mr Garcia pages, but I do hope we get back to Max soon. I've been dying to see what could possibly play out in this "bar" |

| Update!
Man...I gotta wonder if Issac was always this angry and self-destructive or if his feelings have somehow been enhanced since he became a spectral. I wonder how having a spirit inside you would change your personality as well as your appearance... |

Though that begs the question of what that means for everyone else that's a Medium, too. If Spender didn't have light to balance dark, who knows what kind of jerk he'd be, eh? And Johnny might end up fiery--wait, nvm, that's already true. |

| I wonder what card game they're playing there. By the color scheme, I kind of want to say MtG.
On a side note, and yes, my main notes are usually the tangential observations, I like how Zack filled out that second-to-last panel. sometimes anger just feels like it's looping and knotting in my head, and that kind of repetition just fuels itself. |

| Yeah...although I almost have too wonder if spirits unconsciously get hosts who match or have similar personalities. Maybe spectral color has a lot too do with personality?
@poison same. It's a nice visual that really gives off the tenseness and frustration of staying angry. |

| This seems like the perfect opportunity to return to the Spirit/Spectral interactions thread and brush up on the subject, actually. If the spirits really are drawn to like individuals, that would totally explain why Gorf decided at the last second to go 'nope' and possess a plunger instead of Maxs' dad- and we'd definitely get some basis for logical speculation on Scrapdragons' temperament outside of his brief appearance which ended with them grudging out. They really did seem rather serene in that Junkyard Sunset (dibs on that band name), no?
Alas, that entire paragraph only barely had anything to do with a dialogue reference within the chapter this thread is meant for... hrm... Though, gauging compatible temperaments is one of the better ways to speculate on Hijack, so rehashing what we know about the subject ever so briefly isn't too far out of the park here. |

| Ooh, we get a better look at Isaacs' spirit buddy. I'm liking the details his last appearance didn't quite get to show off. Is.. Is Montezuesma actually displaying that he's kind of chill, when not riled up by the tiniest thing? Perhaps I misjudged him. There's definitely some considerate restraint there, and his posture is much less tense than I'd have expected. Much less fury, and more... discipline.
Choosing the word discipline there was a bit of a debate, honestly. I juggled Resolve and Restraint before deciding that fit better. |

| Oh, the struggles of choosing the correct word from the many in the English language!
Oooh, new update! We get to see more of the town of Mayview that isn't forest or road or school or convenience store Max's house or actually we've had a lot of scenes but nothing really... public, I guess? (Though public schools and roads are fairly public...) Y'know what I'm trying to say, right? Right???
Anyway, now we know that Mayview has a mini-mall, which may be a common place for dates due to the nice fountain and isnt' Agent Day dressed nicely today? (I don't think they're actually on a date. It's probably business stuff.) |

Anyway, I welcome more Zarei and learning more about her! |

| That tourist with the camera and the glasses and the probably fake mustache looks suspicious. I mean, he's just standing there, staring at the spirit lady with the lantern. I think he knows more than he's letting on.
I think he knows too much and he's artfully 'blending' into the background of obscurity and unimportance, but I know the truth about you cameraman -- I know the truth.
Look at him, not even looking at the dresses, or the stores, or the fountain. In fact, it could be argued that he's staring at us and breaking some omnipotent fourth wall--- he's the strongest spirit of any of them because he knows about the readers.
Cameraman is the main antagonist of Mayview.
That's my theory.
Looking all innocent like some typical civilian with a camera, but not appreciating scenery, not in nature, and -not- taking a picture.
I'm onto him.
I'm onto his whole game.
He's wearing a watch but he doesn't care about time, time is BENEATH such a sinister man. He's going to take over the world one day.
And look at that coffee spilled on the ground, litter, he's the one who did that too. Look at him he knows he's a litterbug. He doesn't care about the environment which is why he's not out in the environment with his camera!
He disappears in panel five guys. He's seen all he needs to see. |

| WHERE'S YOUR EVIDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENCE!?
I see NONE!
All I see are personal ASSUMPTIONS, not BACKED UP by RELIABLE SOURCES or even LINKED CLEARLY TO YOUR CLAIMS!
...Okay fine I see a little bit of evidence but NOT ENOUGH!
But pfffft who cares about that anyway? Theories and conspiracies have been constructed on less that what we have here! |
