page 1117 – Meanwhile…
(Historical Notes: Well, this is the first Far Out There page where the Wayback Machine just doesn’t seem to have the Old SmackJeeves post on record period. Like, not just that “no bots allowed” error message from SmackJeeves but its own “we just don’t have that” error message. I guess that means we really ARE getting close to the end! Anyway, this is another obvious filler page rehashing stuff we’ve already seen… although we’ve technically only seen Vengeance no-selling Stilez ONCE before, so I guess it’s not quite as overdone as the “Tax says three silly things with one cryptic thing slipped in” gag. Also, Past Me forgot to give Vengeance a different font than everyone else. He must be whispering.)
Is it possible that Tax knew Avatar from before Avatar underwent the surgery to become the indestructible Avatar we now know? Or is it that Tax just can see through time and space and mixes anything that isn’t direct and life-threatening danger to herself very easily?
*biting tongue emoji*
I’m going to go with option#2 – it’s Tax’s time-space warping powers. She didn’t recognize Avatar when they first met in-comic (although that could be written off to her superpowered levels of scatterbrainedness), and, more critically, Tax would have to be really really old, Avatar has been the Absolute Void Anti Total Apocalypse Receptotron for a loooong time.
Although mostly I just left this comment because I like saying “Absolute Void Anti Total Apocalypse Receptotron” as much as possible.
*BITING TONGUE EMOJI*
Who says it can’t be both? I’m going to headcanon that Tax is actually a dreen in disguise.
I wish I was smart enough to make a clever reply, but I honestly had to google “dreen” to even get the joke 🙁
