Tonight, we have a rare occurrence! A legitimate surprise. I'd stop short of calling it a 'twist' yet, but I have a feeling this is just a setup to a bigger development.

Personally, I'll hope for the best and expect the worst. I believe in Willis's ability to ruin pretty much anything.

What are the odds that somehow Ryan's name not actually being Ryan (or only claiming on his paperwork that his name isn't Ryan) is some kind of a twist to let Ryan get away and drag on this conflict for another seven years?

Just want to say hi and thanks to VA Anon for his riveting editions of the comics and Willis's seizure explanation. The seizure thing sounded pretty much exactly like what I imagine Willis's voice to sound like.

I asked for wimpy Ryan, and it made me feel a lot better, so thanks for that.

This is GirlAnon, and I'm still having stalker issues. Now I can imagine that voice instead of the one I've worked so hard to get out of my head. Making progress on getting Facebook to keep him from messaging me with a new account.

>>92474604
So like... "Ryan" went out of his way to give Joyce a fake name? And if they were going to go to the police... they wouldn't have found the right person... FFS.

Also, Frieda's nose looks worse every time he draws it.

So... did he register as a fake name at his job, or did he co-ordinate with his getaway driver to use his fake raping alias. Just how far are his friends going to protect him?

Also, if Frieda knows who Robin is talking about, how much does it really matter what his name is? Just get the cops on him when he shows up at the next volunteering event.

My guess is that it matters because of whoever his father is. We know he's a pastor's son (I get the feeling he was telling the truth about that one), and his dad probably has some major political clout inside the GOP somehow

We already saw him stalking after Dorothy and company. I predict that he tries talking with Dorothy in a bid to find out where Amazi-Girl is.

And, since this is Willis who is playing God, "talking" in this scenario means "cornering in a public area and loudly making demands and intentions known".

This conflict has been going on so long it has made attempted rape a boring plot point. Now its tied with an even more boring plot that was converging with other boring plots. It feels like this is building up to a massive resolution of most of the conflicts but I'm doubtful this will happen. See you all in 2020 when we see Ryan or Mary again.

So I'm guessing >>92474842 is named Ryan because it's the first actual occurrence of the name being uttered. So, I guess the tags are just a huge lie for no reason. It feels like a sort of... unsporting way to set up a twist, using metadata like that. Maybe that's just me though.

Like this one I just noticed while I was just looking at the Ryan tag, where he tags Settlers of Catan AND Settlers of Canaan for no goddamn good reason. It's not like he tags Nintendo DS every time Amber is playing it.

Willis has changed the tags before. Before the trans reveal, all the tags read "Josh" afterwards they were all changed to "Jocelyn" even on strips prior to the reveal.

I'm guessing >>92474954 is correct and he's actually Leland from the flashback, which would explain why the flashback is there in the first place. Even though it'd be a plot development that makes the world seem incredibly small and revolving entirely around the protagonists.

That seemed somewhat fairer, because that's what the character was known as in universe.

In this case, if the name of that strip being Ryan really does mean that it's the first utterance of his name, Willis gave an anonymous character a fake name for... 6 years?

I believe the flashback occurred because of a Patreon poll. From what I recall, Willis asked who people wanted to see in a flashback, and they voted for Sal.

>Even though it'd be a plot development that makes the world seem incredibly small and revolving entirely around the protagonists.
Oh, no, that's already a definite thing. This is a campus with several thousand students, and yet everything we see seems to happen to this specific set of twelve to fifteen students.

I think you're correct. I checked the Ryan tag and never found him saying his name. I'm pretty sure he checks out to the corresponding Walkyverse character:

I guess he signed up for the GOP stuff with a fake name. Or Ryan is his middle name, or something equally pedantic.

I do indeed wonder how Willis plans to justify why Ryan would have given Robin's campaign party a false identity to work under, especially if he didn't appear to be under stress or paranoia of being caught for roofing a girl once.

Which makes it a spoiler for anyone reading the comic for the first time and happens to check the tags.

>>92475606

That is exactly as petty as I can imagine Willis being. He's going to claim it was a grand set-up for anyone dedicated enough to check the tags all this time.

I'm starting to wonder if he included Ryan's name in the tags so we'd all be screaming every time someone tried to find out his name. That's referred to as "dramatic irony," which is when the audience knows something the characters don't, which creates tension among audience members.

>>92475866
I agree. It did make me notice that Sarah's hair basically merges in those two panels in the last strip, but that's not the color's faults. It's Willis's for bad line work.

>>92475887

Willis had a really terrible reason for making it so obvious. Looking it up right now.

That is indeed what dramatic irony is, but our knowledge of what Ryan's name was is not an application of dramatic irony. If we had learned in the comic what Ryan's name was, that would be an application of dramatic irony as it would only require the context and presentation of information from the actual comic, rather than any external sources.

A proper application of dramatic irony would be, say, if Dorothy and Walky began talking about Ryan while Ryan himself was visible in the background following the pair.

You're actually supposed to want both good and bad things to happen to Joyce. It's a very basic storytelling trick to hook audiences. Take one character, make them cute and endearing to the audience, then put them in danger. The audience becomes enthralled by the tension of her (it's almost always a woman) being in danger and experiences a subsequent catharsis and relief when she's saved. That creates a reward response in your audience's heads, they begin to associate the character being in danger as part of an emotionally fulfilling story.

Well now it kind of reminds me of Richard III when the two characters referred only to as "First Murderer" and "Second Murderer" go to kill Clarence as a hired hit. You sort of assume they will be ruthless killers, but one ends up having a conscience and refuses to do the deed.

That's still not really dramatic irony. It would be dramatic irony if Clarence were talking about how blessed he was to be alive within earshot of the two murderers, both of whom had been identified to the audience as murderers.

My superpower is knowing things about literature! I could literally write hundreds of pages just about Dumbing of Age and literary analysis/interpretations. It is an endless well of utter crap, but the varieties of crap are diverse enough.

>>92476127
I'm gonna say that's because Willis has a very poor grasp of storytelling. Willis heavily relies on external sources. You have to keep up with the comments, both of his Tumblrs, Slipshine, and every other comic he's written in order to completely understand everything happening in the comic. He uses outside sources as a crutch but says we don't need them. This example of using the tags to name Ryan is the closest he'll ever get to using something resembling a good literary technique.

>>92476171
Also a cheap literary technique. A false sense of danger can be good when applied well (like when you hear noises in a horror movie and it turns out to be a cat, which is cliche now, but whatever), but doing it too often cheapens it. Joyce's danger is spread out too much, rather than being too close together, so there's that.

Facts about Ryan based on Willis's Tumblr:

Posted 5 years ago:
http://itswalky.tumblr.com/post/11395079843/im-just-curious-i-really-liked-todays-strip
>Q: I'm just curious--I really liked today's strip, but I feel like Ryan should've at least shoved her into the bathroom or something before the glass smash, because him screaming about how he's going to rape Joyce in a very public place strikes me as a bit rash even for someone as irritated as him. Was it trying to move the plot along faster, or is him yelling going to be noted upon, or is there something I'm missing?

>A: I really didn’t want to end a strip on Joyce being shoved into a bathroom. That’s not the sort of cliffhanger I want to do. It was a very important goal of mine throughout this storyline to not leave Joyce in a state of imminent, impending rapey danger for the 24 hours between strips. So if Ryan makes his move in a strip, he has to be subdued by the end of it. If some subtlety is lost in that, then that was a sacrifice I was willing to make.

Posted 4 years ago:

>I don’t think the scene works unless Ryan reveals exactly what he is, no moderation. Joyce has to understand instantly. It can’t be something that could be mistaken for sarcasm. Joyce has been giving him the benefit of the doubt all night. Ryan’s true self has to get her attention right here, right now. Minimizing his anger doesn’t create that catalyst for her snap back into reality.

Dumbest reason ever.

Also, here's another fun fact for you:
There's a reason why most people only do one space between sentences, unlike Willis. The convention of two spaces invented because of typewriters. All the letters were the same size, so two spaces made it easier to see when a sentence was starting and ending. Using two spaces is archaic because that's no longer an issue. Letters look different enough from each other (when you don't use typewriters) that it's completely unnecessary and just makes you look old-fashioned.

I'm actually really surprised he didn't give Joyce a name to work with. He should know that girls like her will totally imagine what her name would sound like if she had his last name. You're right that Willis has gone a loooonnnnng way to avoid directly stating his name, and if that's literally only because of whatever twist this next strip will bring, I will be very annoyed.

Also annoying is that he still doesn't know if Ryan will be caught or not??? I know this is a "long haul" comic for Willis, but seriously? That seems especially wishy-washy, even for him.

You know, when we jokingly suggested that Ryan was a supervillain in these threads, I don't think any of us actually thought that that was the direction Willis was going with this. Ryan's already got the team of identical minions, who'll rush to his defence without any questions asked, his dedication to to rape that is approaching old-DC Dr. Light's and now, he's such a master planner that he had foreknowledge to have his friends/minions shout fake names when they come to his rescue. Is he going to have a villainous lair, too? The Rapecave? Will he have a supervillain team-up with his ally, the Rohypnotizer?

>>92475889
That's the thing I've learned about 4chan: we're a collection of assholes who'll bust each others' chops at the drop of a hat or the the possibility of some lulz, but we try to do good for each other too and I'm glad we can help out a little. Also, I hope your stalker gets bitten by squirrels.

>>92476484
>You have to keep up with the comments, both of his Tumblrs, Slipshine, and every other comic he's written in order to completely understand everything happening in the comic.

And that grinds my gears so much. In my writing, I always include extra materials, background information, short stories and in-depth explanations of minor events for readers, but I always make sure that none of it is necessary to understand the plot. If your readers have to wade through tons of author's comments just to know what the hell is going on (i.e. Sal's parents are racist, Carla is trans) then your ability to tell a story is shit.

FOR. FUCK'S. SAKE.
This is the same stupid shit that got us a teleporting Ruth or that fucking kitten strip. Willis has little to no respect for his audience and only the barest ability to tell a story. ESPECIALLY since he writes for the trades, where all you have to do is turn a page to see what happens. Your audience are not - or at least should not be - so fragile that a character left in peril or hearing BAD WORDS for a day causes mass hysteria. He's said outright that no one will ever die in DoA, and I've said that that also means no one can be severely injured. Willis destroyed all drama from the very beginning of his strip and with situations like these, he acts like his audience are one unhappy feeling away from a bottle of pills. It's insulting to other writers, its patronizing and belittling to the audience and it shows abject refusal to do anything other than be bland and generic and write on autopilot.

Sorry for all the salt. It just grinds my gears.

>>92477742

Well, you see, anon - if Ryan is caught that will be cathartic for the readers, but Willis's pace means that we would never see a trial. Those can take months/years to finally conclude. Hell, Ryan could get out on bail and be walking around for months comic-time, years in real time.
If Ryan is never caught, Willis A) won't have to learn how police procedures actually work and B) can make a "something something privilege something authorities are useless" point

That is, I'm pretty sure his audience is all in high school, save perhaps for some outliers. They're the kind of people who think that everybody's stories about college are true, just as they believed everybody's stories about high school were true.

Because, anon, the dark, shameful secret of the majority of /co/'s DoA posters is... we used to be fans. We read the Martian horror of It's Walky, the amusing antics of early to mid-Shortpacked and then watched as Willis started to give less and less of a shit about his art, writing or general storytelling and more about sticking it to everyone he didn't like. Dumbing Age is just the continuation of that, only it gets dressed up as 'realistic', when it's really not. It's an ongoing dumpster fire where good storytelling is actively suppressed and pushed away by the author himself.

Most of us, I also assume, don't really get worked up. We use hyperbole and exaggeration freely, because it helps show off our disappointment and befuddlement at what's going on this comic.

Willis's fans also apparently can't handle 24 hours of genuine suspense without the risk of mass suicide, so I'm not terribly moved by their opinions. Besides, there is a substantial difference between hating a character who IS a lesbian and hating her BECAUSE she's a lesbian. Of course, the distinction is sadly out of reach of far too many people.

For myself, I dislike Becky because she is literally the recipient of author fiat, she is poorly-written, insulting, glib ("AGAIN!"), abrasive and destructive towards people who are trying to get along with her. None of that is in any way influenced by who she wants to fuck.

Now if you'll excuse me, I apparently have to go burn a rainbow cross outside the home of an interracial gay couple. Because that's the kind of thing someone who hates Becky would do.

It is, but as you said, you're not hating her BECAUSE she's gay. It's how she expresses that which grates.

And in fairness to Willis, a lot of people who first come out do act like Becky for a while as they're just so excited not have to hide who they are and it can be grating for those around them, but they grow out of it. ALSO in fairness, though, this is another problem with the hyper-decompressed writing. Becky has been in this phase for years, rather than the few weeks/months it would normally be, so she has to continually, always, forever, mention how much of a lesbian she is. Almost every conversation has to have that be mentioned.

To tie this back in to your other example, a few years one of my friends decided he was an athiest - and he acted just like Becky. He had to work his newfound atheism into every. Single. Conversation. Whenever we went to the bookstore, he had to make the same joke about putting Bibles in the fiction section. But he grew out of after a few months.

Becky... will never grow out it, not with the timescales DoA operates on.

tl;dr: be at peace. You're not hating her for being a lesbian, you're hating her because Willis has given her a realistic reaction and then stretched it across years.

And if Ryan is never caught, then that means Joyce will always have to worry about the guy who nearly raped her. Joyce doesn't get a happy ending, guaranteed. I can't imagine dying and leaving my characters in limbo like that.

I know she has a terrible family and she's temporarily homeless, but Becky doesn't get sympathy just because she's in a bad spot. She's rude and inconsiderate. She could choose to be kind but chooses not to.

It's fun, okay? We all have our hobbies. I like comics, and I like literary discussions. I used to enjoy Willis's work, and when I went to the comment section, I got torn a new butthole. I'm here because I have a sense of morbid curiosity about the story, to talk about it without the sycophants.

Plus this:
>>92485871
>Because, anon, the dark, shameful secret of the majority of /co/'s DoA posters is... we used to be fans. We read the Martian horror of It's Walky, the amusing antics of early to mid-Shortpacked and then watched as Willis started to give less and less of a shit about his art, writing or general storytelling and more about sticking it to everyone he didn't like. Dumbing Age is just the continuation of that, only it gets dressed up as 'realistic', when it's really not. It's an ongoing dumpster fire where good storytelling is actively suppressed and pushed away by the author himself.
>Most of us, I also assume, don't really get worked up. We use hyperbole and exaggeration freely, because it helps show off our disappointment and befuddlement at what's going on this comic.

I think Willis tried to avoid having her just be "woe is me, the oppressed lesbian" but he leaned way too far in the opposite direction. I like the concept of her as a person who tries to be chipper because she thinks that's how she should be while covering up her pain, but the pained bits get very little play. And it goes poorly with how Willis does bend over backwards to make sure things are good for her. It's at the point that she doesn't really have much to lament, except for the impending loss of a home, but I'm sure that will be miraculously avoided just like everything else.

I'm still waiting for her to pick a major--as in which science she wants to study--and actually enroll in the school. She's no more a scientist than my idiot roommate who dropped out of college after 5 years and withdrawing from more classes than he stayed in.

I don't think so, because there's nothing directly in the story seen only by the audience that goes against it--it's just normal irony when that character dies. A better example would be the "Aunt May calls Peter irresponsible for being late when the audience has seen him be extremely responsible as a superhero". The audience has to know something a character does not.

Exactly.

Willis wanted to write a story with a lesbian getting the happy ending. That's fine. Unfortunately, he wrote her badly and when people reacted negatively to this portrayal, he lashed out, said they were just dudebros who couldn't whack off to her (that will never, ever not confuse the hell out of me) and doubled down.

And you know what? That's his perogative. He's the author. If he truly, honestly believes that something works the way he has it, he has the right to stick to his guns. He has the right to let spite towards imaginary "dudebros" drive his characterization.

We, thankfully, have the right to call terrible writing, bad characterization and obvious hack work what it is. What could make Becky better is to as you say, see more of the pained bits. We don't need to have her wallowing in misery, but more than one sad face every few years would help flesh out the character. Instead, it's MAXIMUM QUIRKINESS! Let me violate physics by tearing this dress off! Let me violate someone's privacy! Let me loudly refer the siblings of my beloved best friend Nazis! It's so wacky and endearing!

WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME?!

Willis has already stated the universe will bend over backwards to give Becky a happy ending.
Any tension or interest anyone might have in the plot is gone. She will not face any kind of challenge or hardship, everything will be handed to her.
What's most insulting is that Willis apparently believes that this is the best way for lesbians to be depicted in media, shallow characters whose sexuality is their only personality trait, and that they will never accomplish anything unless it is literally handed to them.

He could have subplot about Ryan's identical henchmen harassing Dorothy, he could have Ryan rape apologists hunting down Amazi-Girl and Sal, he could even have Ryan's dad show up with a gun!

The comic is about a group of students entering a state university and their day-to-day lives in a TOTALLY REALISTIC slice of life comedy/drama.

There is no over-arching plot, it's just the meandering travails of a bloated cast including but not limited to, a physics-defying overweight superheroine, a gay man who doesn't want to be known as the gay guy but whose every plot revolves around him being gay, biracial twins whose parents (yes, both of them) are racist against one of them for reasons, a former fundamentalist Christian who zigs between faithful and faithless as the punchlines require, a violent abusive alcoholic who assaults, stalks, steals from and harasses the students in her wing, but it's okay because she likes girls and a transwoman who harasses other students, including using her wealthy parents power and influence to threaten them but must be protected from harm by all cast members.

Antagonists include a rapist, and three different abusive father figures. Because parents are evil.

That in and of itself isn't a problem, especially with a cast this large. The problem is that Willis switching story arcs without regard to pacing makes things drag out for longer than they need to be. If he stuck to one storyline at a time except when it'd make dramatic sense to cut away the story would read a lot better. If he really wanted to cross cut the storylines to keep them roughly contemporaneous, he needs a hell of a lot better ways of transitioning or to keep that format strictly for the trades, where it won't matter as much.

Forgot to post the bonus strip voting a couple of days ago.

Right now it's between Howard, Asma, and Jocelyn. Hard to tell who's leading because there are so many duplicate nominations this month, but if you add them up Howard is at 42 votes, Jocelyn is 28, and Asma is at 39.

Going by single-post amounts though, Howard is winning by just 4 over Jocelyn, and Asma fans are getting crushed because they can't follow simple goddamn instructions.

As usual, I'll vote for whichever of those three that the majority of people who reply to this post want me to.

I'm not saying that.

I'm saying a guy who's being 'accused' 'blindly' of being a potential rapist would have more supporters than a shitty politician who's been caught lying to fucking everyone and doing exactly the shit she's been lobbying against.

I'm comparing that to /pol/, a group of extremist people who have opinions and support people that go drastically against what's considered societally acceptable.

It's implied that Leyland got away with kicking Marcie into a ditch because he was a rich white kid with a bright future ahead of him. Yes, Willis used an incident of elementary school bullying as a direct analogy for a college rape. Then he blew up at someone in the comments section when they didn't put 2 and rape together.

Leyland is obviously Ryan. It's not a twist when half of us called it months ago.

What is the point of hiding Ryan's real name from the reader if Willis isn't going to link it/him back to something that has already happened in the story? It's not a twist if you just make up a different name for him.

"You thought his name was Ryan? What if I told you his real name... is Bob?"

Willis is a bad writer but he's not that bad.

Yeah, she should just order them to put the guy in jail. If they refuse completely, then she could fire them. Or she could fire them afterwards if she finds their suggestion so distasteful.

But I guess we're continuing the trend of no one doing what is right to actually try and stop this guy.

Joyce and Sarah don't break his knee caps or at least lacerate and concuss him to a near-lethal level.

Amazi-Girl causes a distraction and lets him get away, and fails to track a dude with a head injury dripping blood everywhere.

Joyce is too afraid of leaving school to file a police report on someone with the most identifiable of features. (And is apparently Green Lantern level willful because she refused suggestion while roofied)

Amazi-Girl is more concerned with starting a confrontation and a fight at the rally instead of surreptitiously taking photos, archiving them and asking campaign staff for his identity.

Dorothy fucks around arguing with Robin about her ethnoreligious status rather than asking about him.

This gives time for Leslie to shoo Robin away. And when she meets Robin later, she focuses on her lesbian sob story instead of just going and getting the fucking information asap. They even spend a day watching cartoons and holding hands. Nice.

And now Robin, the most incompetent person ever, is firing the only people who know how to work the file cabinet where they keep his personal information.

I guess God answers rapists' prayers too, to increase the dramatic tension.

Honestly, if Ryan really IS Leland, then it's so obviously an attempt to shift the dramatic focus from Joyce (the actual victim) to Sal (somebody not involved at all) in an attempt to give HER a personal reason to be going after him will be so stupid it'll be amazing if Willis still has readers who can take him seriously.

Like, come the fuck on. Ryan's only reason for being in DoA is because he tried to rape Joyce. But now the focus is on Amazi-Girl/Amber for her failure to bring him to justice in the first place, as well as to focus on her own relationships with Sal and with Danny. Speaking of which, can't wait until people mistake Danny as being Ryan so that he gets pulled into the mix like it's Paul Thomas Anderson's "Magnolia". How do we wrangle Dorothy into this web as well?

To be fair. I tend to be tentatively sympathetic to those accused of "rape" until proven guilty (or at least that I'm convinced of their guilt) because just as easy as it is for someone to DENY it it's also easy for some to fabricate that story.

The fact that those allegations can basically RUIN your life makes me want to be very discerning with that sort of thing because it turns out to be incorrect you've basically doomed someone to lose huge portions of their life and have doors closed to them unjustly.

Not that that's relevant because we all know Ryan did it (or tried to do it, in this case)

That's the guy's name.

Yeah, this whole thing with Ryan has just been Willis lashing out at the Brock Turner story/scandal and how it was framed by progressives/SJW-types/others like Willis. He's actually hurting his own potential by making it an allegory and forcing his characters to fit into the narrative. The return of Ryan could have been a story of Joyce overcoming her innermost fears and PTSD, both emotionally, psychologically, and physically since Willis loves to use physical means of communication. But instead, Joyce has been pushed to the wayside so that others who for all intents and purposes weren't directly involved in the events at the party (Sal notably less so as she wasn't even AT the party) can solve her problems for her and with her permission.

The way Willis has been handling this triggers me as much as how Willis cut Walky barging into Ruth's bedroom to talk to Billie.

It's clear from Willis's own statements on his Tumblr that he didn't have a plan for Ryan going into this. He just wanted to have an attempted rape in his comic to generate clicks. I'm sort of surprised his fanbase hasn't eaten him alive for this, but he's gotten manipulating them down to a science. He always does just enough to get them incensed without making them turn on him.

In the case of Ryan he drops the character for 5 years, except for a few strips where he brings him back in the form hallucinations stemming from Joyce's PTSD. So yeah, he torments Joyce for a few years with the specter of Ryan until finally reintroducing him. And the way he does it is by means of a badly drawn fist fight between a bunch of fratbro stereotypes and a fat nerd in yellow spandex, with Joyce nowhere to be found.

Just a complete lack of respect for the subject matter and yet people praise this hack like he's some paragon of progressive webcomics. It's so stupid.

Makes you wonder if some rape (or attempted rape) victims have a problem with taking away Joyce's agency and choices in the situation.

The attempted rape was handled well enough at the start, despite its glaring issues (like a guy with blood on his face rushing through a crowd without any issue), and I didn't even mind that the whiteboard wieners were related to Joyce's frustration about what happened to her.

But now that he's been introduced as a way of helping Amber get over her issues and not Joyce... puts a bad taste in my mouth.

For being the alleged main character, Joyce has been foisted off-screen a LOT since Becky came into the picture. Not just because of Becky, but that's when the trend seems to start.

As someone who suffered through something similar, I find it frustrating and some elements of it hit home, but the rest is so cartoonish that I feel insulted. It's not like I could say anything though.

And those are one-note scenarios where Kaitlin is just sitting around and somebody makes fun of lesbians, to which she either makes a nervous response in the affirmative or quietly and inwardly disregards. But at least it pseudo-develops Kaitlin's personality and character, if only developing the same aspect time and time again.

How can they even possibly hold this stance without a purposeful ignorance of the concerns of the opposition.

I dont know why Willis would have some sort of poll, then waste it on something banal like the character eating cereal. Whats the point? If I was voting for something I would expect something at least SLIGHTLY more substantial. SOME sort of actual joke. This is a strip where nothing LITERALLY happens. NOBODY would want to see someone eating cereal.

There's also the one where Becky sneaks back onto her old campus (I think) to meet her again, only for her parents to walk in again.

It would be nice to see Kaitlin make a transfer to IU and Becky have to deal with her initial infatuation for Kaitlin, her deeper love for Joyce, and her use of Dina as a rebound for both.

Report him for what? It's an unsubstantiated rape claim from an anonymous source with no evidence that doesn't even give the correct name. Quietly fire him, then even more quietly hire a private investigator to look into the allegations. If anything concrete turns up, hand it over to the cops. Robin tweeting his personal information, which is probably what Willis will have her do, would only make things harder to secure an actual conviction.

I wrote this post, but it actually bothers me way more now when I think about how they just sat around doing whatever for the entire day with a rapist on the loose, to have dumb hijinx. It would've even provided a good cover for Robin being there if she later revealed she was at Leslie's home to ask for information about the attempted rape. Because that's what she should've been fucking doing.

But now she's finally decided to follow through, there's a rush. I feel like if this story was more realistic, the danger of "Ryan" disappearing would've been the most important thing driving the chase to catch him. And that doesn't mean you piss away entire days because you've got a crush you're working through.

I just realized how awful the framing is in the last panel. The punchline is barely impactful as you can barely see Leslie and Robin's hands in the bottom-left corner, squished aside by a quote bubble. He should have had Leslie lift up their hands to blatantly show that it was the case.

Or, if Willis wanted to go full R18+, he could have had the entire central focus of each panel be on their hands, with their bodies shifting in time with the dialogue.

The way it happened was they got caught, and KAITLIN was the one to throw Becky under the bus. It's not like Becky jumped under the bus to save Kaitlin.

Plus, Kaitlin's parents just thought she was a blameless victim, so they let her stay in school. Becky was cast as the only actually gay one, so that's when Toedad took her home to "fix" her.

Kaitlin was a huge fucking cunt, but your mileage may vary on how much of it was her fault, and how much can be excused by fundie brainwashing.

She probably did that because she had developed genuine feelings for her and didn't want it to go any further, for the sake of avoiding more trouble.

Because the flashbacks are only two panels and have Becky's narration, it's going to be hard to tell until we get more information.

In the flashback panels, we see Becky being kept away from Kaitlin and Kaitlin looking mildly concerned, and we see Ross making Becky uncomfortable as she tries to leave.

It's pretty ambiguous, but I guess it depends on how much of a filter Becky has regarding the whole thing.

Does anyone have the one where Becky visits Kaitlin?

Yes, the story is that Becky came on to Kaitlin and she consented, but when caught and questioned, Kaitlin threw Becky under the bus. After that, what little we've seen of Kaitlin through bonus strips implies that she still harbors bisexual or lesbian feelings for Becky, if not women in general.

But yeah, all we'd really need is one "My parents made me kick you out" and it'd fall in line with Willis' general MO.

Honestly, I'm pretty sure that's how most of us have seen it. I believe the emphasis on the glass of pop as well as the panel in the first batch where Ryan thought-bubbles "Find Mark" is supposed to show to the reader that he's a rapist.

>Stories don't work when characters act as if they have the same knowledge as the audience.
They do when you're the author, David Willis. This is hardly the first time that characters are shown knowing information that they've never learned.

You should ask us about the Carla/Mary debacle. Long story short: Two characters who had never directly interacted with each other before that point find themselves rivals, only for Mary to divulge a secret about Carla that, at that point in the comic, had never been openly divulged to anybody else. Suddenly, EVERYBODY on the floor knows this secret.

The way Becky says "she told everyone I was a *bad influence* or something like that," implies that she wasn't there to actually see what Kaitlin said. So who knows if Kaitlin actually came up with the idea on her own, or if her parents raised it as a possibility and she took the chance because she was worried about getting Ross'd.

It's still not a brave move to throw Becky under the bus, but she was probably super scared.

>>92523009
Joyce is a violent fuck, so she reacted with violence first to his aggression. Also his bubble is a threat that he's going to force her into the washroom for sex, so it might be justified? I dunno the law, so I can't say.

Sarah hits him because he's grabbing Joyce, so at that point that has to be 100% justified, even if the follow ups are not.

He wanted to rape Joyce. The girl with the bat is an overprotective, "big sister" type character. We don't know quite when she first heard him talking, so it's possible she saw Ryan grabbing Joyce's arm and such.

If I were Willis -- and I thank God, Jesus, Buddha, and Xenu that I am not -- I'd use this as a set-up for Becky and Dina's first time. Leslie and Robin end up on some kind of lesbian road trip and ditch the county for a weekend, allowing for Dina to spend the night at Becky's place, opening the way for the two to finally have the awful sex we know that Willis will illustrate despite how much he thinks that sex is a beautiful act of intimacy and togetherness.

(Y'know, it's really weird that Willis chooses to illustrate intimacy with people making faces like they just dropped a crate on their foot when they cum.)

Anyways, Willis could pretend to be artsy by having Leslie and Robin stretch each other's clits like taffy in a hotel at the same time. It also cuts down on the actual amount of artwork he'd need to draw for the Becky/Dina sex scene.

A lot of camgirls and other types of sex workers have certain clients that would just rather talk to them and such. I'm not sure Becky is capable of the restraint it would take to not butt in with her own opinion.

I figured out that it actually lets you upload more than one thing, so I hope they're ready to see all the documentation I have. I have a lot of it because I knew this day would come... but also because he's a blithering idiot and I enjoy schadenfreude in the same sense that I enjoy ripping on Willis and DoA.

Prediction time!

Will we ever see Robin's assistants again?
Will Becky become her new assistant?
Will Robin become jobless at last?
Will we switch scenes?
Who will Ryan stalk next?
Will he follow Dorothy to her dorm?
When will Robin put pants on?

Also, the more I think about how Willis hasn't decided if he'll have Ryan get caught, the madder I get. Especially since that's only stated on his Tumblr. People who don't keep up with him on there would expect Ryan to eventually get caught. After all, this is supposed to be a realistic comic, not a Batman-y one. Hahahahahaha, yeah, right.

I'd love to take a look at the strips that Willis started making post-Shortpacked and see if there's a definite shift in realism and tone after he ended SP. It might have been the case that SP was tying Willis down when writing for DOA, and now that it's over he's free to do as he pleases.

My guess would've been that Amber gets captured and Sal uses that tracker app to find her stuff, takes the uniform and tries to go save her, but convinces Danny to come help.

But then I remembered that she deleted that app. It could still happen, but how she finds her room and costume would be tricky.

I just combed through the DOA archives and I didn't see any strips with Sal in the Amazi-Girl suit. Maybe I was hallucinating.

Anyways, I can only assume that Amazi-Girl had enough preptime to make a suit for Sal that fits her measurements, leading to a punchline about how Amber got Sal's measurements in the first place. Personally, I'm still waiting for Amber to have a mental breakdown since nobody can figure out how her DID works, primarily because her form of DID doesn't exist.

I don't really care for the preview panels, but this is it. Originally shared in a post on July 20 2016.

I think I thought it might be a dream because of how Sal is drawn, but Willis has been drawing characters thicker so it doesn't actually have to mean anything. He has done dream sequences where people replace others like that, though.

They were hired to assist her and advise het in maintaining her professional image. Their suggestions were against what she stood for morally, so she fired them because she was no longer satisfied that they were giving her proper advice. To be honest, this is the one sound judgement I've seen her make.

There's a fine line between not being a "yes man" and overstepping your boundaries.

The problem is that Robin's moral call was to immediately turn over Ryan's personal information to a social media campaign. They have no legal authority to do anything. From a legal perspective the only thing the cops have that wouldn't be disputed is Ryan's presence at the party. The victim has no recollection of the attack, the only witness to the actual attack wasn't there for most of it and beat the shit out of the accused with a baseball bat with only her word that it was self-defense, and there is zero evidence of anything. About they only thing they can do is fire Ryan. It's not like firing someone immediately erases all evidence of their existence.

>>92532334
Having a rapist intern is a scandal, period. Outside of firing him they can't do anything other than turn his information over to the cops if they come calling without immediately getting slapped by a lawsuit.

She could have gotten information from Frieda, then fired both of them. It's not hard to control your impulses long enough to ask "Okay, his name's not Ryan. What is his name then? What we do know about him? Has anyone seen him lately?"

While I understand why she didn't agree with their advice, she needs facts, not opinions. Get the facts, then ditch them.

Either Ryan is his real name and he signed up as an intern under a pseudonym, or vice versa.

In tonight's cop-out scene change, Billie cracks out a useless piece of etymology trivia that almost no reasonable person would have any business knowing off of the top of their heads.

We also learn that Walky, unsurprisingly, probably smells like some combination of sweat, shit, and stale Cheetos.

I don't even know if that different etymological origin thing is true? I mean I'm sure Willis either learned it in college or read an article on some "smart" writer blog. But I think it just has to be spelled and pronounced the same, although often just the spelling will do.

This strip is pretty weird.

Bullie deflects in panel 2 with what seems like almost playful insulting. The "right?" at the end invites Walky to respond, rather than shut him down.

But then she finds the idea that he would joke back with him so infuriating that she doubles down? And then she gets super mad at him explaining his joke while showing how much of an English dork she is, despite never really showing any aptitude for writing or language, and never really coming off as book smart ever in the history of the strip. She's pretty socially intelligent, but I'm pretty sure her writing has been described as shitty by the newspaper editor, and she has never said any thing book smart like this.

(I actually I really like doing Walky's type of response to words with multiple meanings and I like the "picking the wrong meaning of a word" construction as a joke. And it's a nice way of characterizing. Like even here, you can tell that Walky is trying to be a pretentious douche and deflect Billie's insult.)

I read a few sources, I even had a book about language that covered similar stuff from a linguistics-adjacent course I took.

It seems like strictly speaking, multi meaning (polysemic) words refer to slight meaning differences, while homonyms refer to words with different origins that happen to be spelt and/or pronounced the same. A lot of things I read argued the separation isn't clear cut, although somehow I doubt an actual linguist would say that. A polysemic example I saw was "newspaper" as the physical object one reads vs "newspaper" as the business entity. "Stalk," referring to a plant shoot (Old English: "stalu") vs the stealthy action (OE: "stealcian") were suggested as homonyms.

But, it seems like semantic shift, which is basically how words take on different meanings can shift a meaning of a word to just being one of multiple polysemes to being a separate homonym. And in general the line seems blurrier than just strictly origin, which makes sense because a lot of words come in from an origin and can gain wildly different meanings while in english use.

One article suggested that you can guess the meaning of a polyseme, but you can't guess the meaning of a homonym, because they are so unrelated. I'd argue that maybe that's the case here, because funk music isn't literally smelly, smokey music, even if those concepts were part of its origin. Now it would more refer to the instrumentation and rhythmic elements.

Anyway, that's more than enough thinking about that for me. Although it's kinda nice to have something brought up that might actually be taught in a university class (outside of gender studies) to think about. Even if it's used for some weird burn.

To be pedantic, the music styling Funk does come from the word funk meaning smell. Very specifically the smell of sweaty sex. Funk, Jazz and Ragtime are all music similar in origin and all named after sexual connotations from the slang of the time.

Willis probably wouldn't know this of course. Because sex is icky and makes dead grandmas cry.
