Page 504 – In which the lights are still out
There’s a lot I could say about this page, especially in relation to all that EXCELLENT theorizing that went on last week. Alas, I’ve got a whole lot of Conventional Wisdom to draw in a very short amount of time, and it’s already very late. I really don’t need to be making words right now.
The lateness isn’t helped by the Voting Incentive. I had to go and radically change my plans right at the last minute, which didn’t exactly speed up the process. Still, the end result is nice, so go vote and check it out!
(Historical Notes: It was quite rightly pointed out that, if Layla was going to walk around in a shirt with a big “NO” on it, then Trigger should really have a “YES” shirt. Also, I’m re-posting this comic in the midst of a global pandemic, which gives the punchline a whole extra level of morbidness.)
There’s some amazing whiplash to reading the historical note, thinking “oh have we finally got to that point in time?”, looking at the upload date, and realizing this was (re-)posted literally at THE start of the pandemic.
How I failed to notice this the last time I was going through the archives is beyond me, but that whiplash added a bit of extra morbid comedy to it.
Man, to think we’re already reaching a point where the historical notes are starting to warrant their own historical notes!
