Well, that confirms exactly how stupid Sylvia is. Played for laughs, but I'm still gonna treat the stupidity as canon.

At first I read it too fast and automatically had Torg saying, "Someone set us up the bomb!" Then it filtered through my mind what he actually say, and then I was disappointed...

I'm just going to retcon my memory with this.

Because she was trying to bite him? I don't understand what the "snap" sound effect means, or why there's a stake apparently sticking into Torg in that last panel.

Also, the Sam joke. Sam, you are so lovably dense.

Sylvia's teeth missing the bite.


That's Sylvia's face.

Yes, because she tried to bite him. She should know that success in that would mean instant death for her. She's lucky Riff is otherwise preoccupied or failure would have meant instant death as well.

And the elephant in the room is finally addressed. AKA, the bombs.

And now we know the real reason we have the smaller stake gun rather than the giant Gatling stake gun, it would have taken too much time to carve names into all the stakes.

And now I want to know if Izzy knows that zombies are real.

I am so excited to see Riff's face if/when Izzy takes her mask off. It's a bit alarming how much I'm shipping those two considering only their DoR counterparts got together and the alt dimensions don't always follow the Prime dimension's plots or time lines.

I just noticed a bit of a typo. Riff's first word bubble reads, "We're you bit?" I believe it's supposed to be "Were you bit?" With the apostrophe it reads, "We are you bit?" Which I'm pretty sure is not what's intended.

"RIff! Someone set this place to blow!"

Well that blows. And oh snap, Sylvia sure is hungry.

I'm glad somebody figured out that was Sylvia's face producing the *Snap!*; I can see it now, but Pete, maybe you could have shown a little more of her head, because it looks more like something poked through his jacket just underneath the armpit.

Sylvia's face didn't read as ambiguous to me for what it's worth. I saw hair, nose, teeth and lips immediately. Maybe if the former panel of her right there didn't exist I might have seen it differently.

I was only surprised because I thought Sylvia was working on a "look into my eyes" hypno-vamp move. Which would be much less likely to be fatal (to her) than biting him with Riff standing right there.

Oh hey! Riff may not have seen Izzy's face yet -- but she told him "You killed my brother." Did Riff know MM was Izzy's brother? Maybe not. There was no MM in DoR. Well I'm sure he'll find out soon...

That's why I read the reactions thread every day. Other people see things I didn't. I saw white space under Torg's arm and couldn't figure out what the "Snap" was. After coming here I went back and I could see Sylvia's face.
