It’s almost the end of Act 2!!
This week: John does alchemy. Cantown is born. Carapace anatomy is confusing, GG is adorable, and the workflow of hypothetical postal workers is discussed at length. In other words, we read pages 2514 to 2623.
In addition:
- YouTube upload of “[S] Dave: Ascend to the highest point in the building.” Scrub and freeze-frame to your heart’s content.
- The song from that flash is subtitled “Dave Owns”. Really. (It’s by Robert Blaker.)
- An awesome, level-headed (but vaguespoilery) biological discussion of carapace people by tumblr user luzerna.
Next week, we finish Act 2! Our beloved Mayo[r] makes a paradox, names a firefly, and has the honor of being the first character to “[S] Ascend.” A lot happens between pages 2624 and 2659.
