So wait.. is “red” the muscular guy from the original dimension? Hah! Love it.
is it strange that i realized they were “Red” and “Robyn” and instantly thought of the restaurant chain?
yes
ok, so long as i’m aware of it
And we go for the gender-bend on him too…
Why do I get the feeling that CD’s ideal world would be one where the only guys that existed would be the ones that would be no where near him so he could have all the women?
Can you blame him?
Sounds like a good plan to me.
When’s the next random reality shift gonna happen?
If we knew when it was going to happen, it would not be random, would it?
yeah, this issue takes continuity and beats it with an aluminum bat.
I don’t think continuity or consistency has ever been CD’s strong point. This “story arc” seems less like a plot, and more like random scenes he’s had floating around in his head with no real place to put them within the world he’s haphazardly slapped together.
What’s the point of focusing on these individual scenes when there’s an overarching plot that makes them essentially meaningless when all is said and done? Time travel and reality-shifting are interesting concepts, and if applied properly, can make for an interesting tale, but not if the focus is on the meaningless details that don’t exist from one minute to the next.
It seems CD doesn’t have an actual story planned out and is just throwing these random scenes out there. So far all we know is that Bay has deduced that “Someone is messing with time!” Nothing else is constant from one reality swap to the next, and the individual scenes are drawn out far too long to tell us nothing.
here’s one for not getting or understanding my joke.
I’ll let you in on a little secret: most webcomic writers don’t plan the storyline farther than a few pages. Sure they have an overall plot in it, but unless they draw every story and ink/color them all in advance, they merely tell the story as they think of it while keeping the overarching plot in mind.
Then again, that’s just my own personal experience, and I may be comepletely wrong about other artists.
If that’s the case here, then it seems CD’s pretty much scrapped the overall plot for this arc in favor of pointless scenes in an already needlessly convoluted setting. This one in particular seems like just an excuse to draw his main character even more disproportionate for no reason other than to do so.
This comic is quickly degrading from mildly entertaining to just plain boring, with a splash of stupid. If CD has a story in mind, he should get back to it; if not, he should simply move on to something else and try to forget this mistake ever happened. Dragging things out like this isn’t doing himself or the readers any favors.
