I know! She is a stout little bugger isn’t she? I know she’s punched a guy and a window, but she’s actively holding back Mike while wearing a cast (and touching some man chest might I add?). Go Joyce!
I don’t think he can make her go full rage mode, because she doesn’t expect anything good of him like she did of her community.
That said, her willingness to employ violence against confirmed assholes means he doesn’t have to.
I was more worried about the inflection, I feel like I could’ve put more emphasis on loud, but you know how paraphrasing goes, especially when you don’t know the original source
There really is. Attached to the biology building and open to the public. (Glares at Harvard.) I loved going there in winter; a few of the rooms are tall with trees, not just plants sprouting in pots.
Then there the Luddites like myself who don’t check DoA on their mobile device. That’s what laptops are for.
Seriously, though — I have a 17-inch screen and a full-sized keyboard on the laptop versus a 5-inch screen on my Galaxy S4. No contest.
Dire Straights, eh? Sounds like there’s some sort of situation that desperately requires the attention and/or application of some heterosexual folks to maintain order.
“The fossil evidence is clear. These unfortunate hominids were physically incapable of any form of non-heterosexual, non-vanilla sexual activity.”
“Not even…?”
“No. See those face-flanges?”
Some would argue that his aggressive desire to expose people’s personality flaws in unpleasant ways that always makes the person’s life worse fits in with the popular stereotype of a social worker.
And people can brush up on law without taking the relevant classes. Mike seems like the sort of guy who’d make sure to learn the law so he was never liable for tormenting his peers.
Social workers are everywhere, so no matter where he wanted to work, he might want to brush up on various areas of the law.
Frankly, Mike as a social worker is maybe the most horrifying(ly awesome?) idea I have ever heard. What admissions person allowed that?!? I think they need to be spoken to.
Wait, this is Mike. Right, let me amend ‘spoken to’ to ‘fought’.
TBH, most majors could probably benefit from studying at least one part of the law, but criminal, health, and family law would probably be most pertinent to a social worker.
Of course, this is what I search the tag archive for. Looked like art got upgraded for family weekend, Mike doesn’t know about Amazi-Girl (at least based on how I read the dialog, and this lovely gem.
What kind of question is that?
Be the fly in their soup, be the pebble in their shoe
Be the pea beneath all beds and the bump on every head
Be a dagger in the back, an extra turn upon the rack
Share the quivering of the heart – a stabbing pain, a sudden start
‘Cause it’s so pleasing being evil!
This is the life we lead – the Devil tips his hat to me!
So do it all because you’re evil
And do it all for free – their tears sre all the pay you’ll ever need.
I was confused by this strip. At first Walky looks really pleased with his plan, but then in Panel 5 it looks like he starts frowning at the thought of getting straight A’s. Which made me think he doesn’t WANT straight A’s for some secret reason (which really puzzled me, considering his grade anxiety). So in Panel 6 he volunteers to talk to Sarah — so that Mike WON’T, thus preserving his life. But the lack of comments echoing my interpretation made me realize I got it wrong.
Yeah, that’s my interpretation as well. Plus, a lot of his pride is wrapped up in his ability to get automatic A’s just for being “smart” rather than needing any trickery, so the reminder that he’d probably need some sort of madcap plan like studying to succeed in Calculus likely depresses him.
It’s a nervous tic brought on by failing his maths tests, compounded by a repugnance to seeking help, and a seeming lack of application in studying.
He was a great student when he was at high school, but what plays in high school doesn’t play so well in Uni.
It’s possibly compounded by the fact that his sister has done well by seeking help in the form of coaching, and being the boyfriend of a straight A’s student who wants to be president who studies all the hours of the day and night.
Normally I’d ask if I should go delete a couple head canons I have but considering A) The fandom, B) The strip’s content, and C) The existence of slipshines by Willis, I think I’ll be okay.
I think his haunted look is more because he apparently NEEDS a loophole to get straight A’s. Or he thinks he does, anyway. He could always seek outside help but lol
Wait wait wait… can that be interpreted as AG admitting she’s turned on… (I mean obviously a shipper could interpret it however they want, but that’s different)
The cutest thing in this strip? Joyce wrestling with Mike just off the edge of panel 6. Sometimes, Willis draws scenes that seriously reminds you that these characters, despite their adult dilemmas, are still very young and this is one of those times.
Meanwhile, I wonder if Sarah will feel bound to determine why Walky wants to use her baseball bat on Mike? I mean, murdering Mike at least seems a reasonable step for anyone forced to be his room-mate but there has to be a reason and maybe she’s far enough away from his circle that he’ll feel able to talk with her. I hope so because his attempt to deal with his academic performance issues on his own is really impacting on the quality of his life.
Pretty good grab there Joyce, surely caught Mike by surprise :).
Walky turns out being a surprising person to talk to people and help them, as with A.G. on the roof top. So maybe …. he will at least take Sarah’s mind off her decision to try to be social or not to be.
Mike and Joyce ….? Very interesting ship. I’d like to see that happen I think.
Walky is pretty good at small talk (when his smartassery meter isn’t set at ‘buffon’ and he resorts to monkey-flinging), and he and Sarah has had a great bonding experience as kinda sane people in a mad world before. I am cautiously optimistic about their interaction http://www.dumbingofage.com/2015/comic/book-5/03-the-butterflies-fly-away/truce/
I dunno. Mike and Joyce clearly have the best chemistry out of Mike and anyone else in the cast and Joyce can sometimes get Mike to show a less shitty face to the world, but I’m still hesitant to ship Mike with anyone until he becomes less of an unrepentant abuser.
The thing is that, if Mike wasn’t just trying to press Amazi-Girl’s buttons, it is quite possible that he may interpret Joyce trying to grapple him as a clear come-on!
I’ve actually been wondering if Mike might end up doing something horrible like Ryan did.
Mike has no apparent sense of boundaries or consideration of other peoples consent to his actions. Wouldn’t that be the twist if Willis sent him down that path, in a “No, it’s not ok even in the people we’re used to and accept as part of our group.”
And the ironic part is that Mike really likes Sarah and was looking for an excuse to talk to her, but was too shy. Why, yes, I do read far to many high school romance mangas. how could you tell?
Loading ...
Mike vs. Sarah, place your bets
It looks like we actually have Mike vs. Joyce back there
It looks like she’s about to suplex him.
BAH GAWD, SHE’S KILLED HIM.
Walky gets his wish, Joyce gets some catharsis, Mike gets a nice six-foot hole in the ground. Everyone wins, really.
Except that Walky doesn’t get straight ‘A’s for the semester, The internet LIED to him.
My Sarah/Mike fantasies are being thwarted by Joyce. This is probably a good thing, but still …
Mrs Warner’s baby boy been near broken in half!
And he didn’t even get his nickel!
Yet.
I know! She is a stout little bugger isn’t she? I know she’s punched a guy and a window, but she’s actively holding back Mike while wearing a cast (and touching some man chest might I add?). Go Joyce!
IT WAS ALL A PLOT
Mike gets to feel Joyce boobs on his back while being suplexed.
Totally worth it.
Good ol’ Mike; always willing to take one for the team! 😉
Sarah. Mike doesn’t do combat. Sarah does.
Also, that’s Joyce. Ima bet on Joyce. If anyone can make her go red-eyes-of-fury and be stupid enough to do so, it’s Mike.
I don’t think he can make her go full rage mode, because she doesn’t expect anything good of him like she did of her community.
That said, her willingness to employ violence against confirmed assholes means he doesn’t have to.
And since he enjoys violence used against him, this creates a virtuous circle.
Place your butts*
Already in place at the top.
In a straight fight, in this universe? Sarah. Definitely. Mike’s many things, but I doubt he’s nearly as good a brawler.
You talk to her… No, YOU talk to her…
I’ll talk to her, except I don’t want to.
NOT LOUD ENOUGH!
(Am I saying that right?)
The original is ‘hard’, though now I try to be creative in my use of it. Or at least varied.
I was more worried about the inflection, I feel like I could’ve put more emphasis on loud, but you know how paraphrasing goes, especially when you don’t know the original source
It did read a little soft on that part. But that just could of been the vowels at work there.
Good. You have something in common. She doesn’t want to talk to you either.
Have fun.
They have a greenhouse? Nice!
That’s where Professor Sprout conducts Herbology classes.
God, I love this fandom.
There really is. Attached to the biology building and open to the public. (Glares at Harvard.) I loved going there in winter; a few of the rooms are tall with trees, not just plants sprouting in pots.
They have it just to discourage webcomic artists. Not an airtight plan, but still.
I think this is the start of Mike and Sarah’s beautiful friendship.
I mean, they’re both misanthropes, but they’ve got pretty much polar opposite forms of misanthropy.
Agreed, but their personalities might bounce well off each other like Dina and Amber.
Or they could murder each other. Who knows?
…Willis?
Has promised no character deaths, so if he is planning to have them murder each other, he’s lying to us about it.
Non-canon slipshine?
Hatefuck 2: Evil is Coming
Staring Mike and Mary
But he could have them planning to murder each other …
Which will blossom into true love! A la Mr. And Mrs. Smith
Or Mike and Joyce’s beautiful Slipshine.
A beautiful fiendship.
Actually fiendship sounds like a great name for Mike/Mary.
Nonono, Walky won’t get all As because his roommate died.
He will get all As because Mike died, and it will be a campus-wide day of celebration.
AND EVERYONE GETS A NICKEL DISCOUNT AT SOMEONE’S MOM’S PLACE!
NOT ENOUGH NICKELS!
With the death of Mr. Warner, all tests for the next school year have been cancelled!
*Everyone cheers except Dorothy*
hug it out guys
Where’s the downside?
We will never discover the secret of Mike’s hair, as he will take it to the grave.
I’m not even sure Willis knows it. I think I recall him trying to work it out when he was making a statue of him, for I believe a Kickstarter?
I don’t think even Mike knows how his hair works.
SHAVE IT FROM HIS CORPSE AND DONATE IT TO SCIENCE!
….
whadyamean science doesn’t want it?
Watch it turn out to be an edgelord crown, cause breaking people just isn’t enough for him, he needs to break physics as well.
Then create your OWN science!
The Mike Warner Memorial Institute For Advanced Hair Science
or, as Mike would name it:
Hair Analysis and Technical Epistemology For Universal Care of Keratin
(H.A.T.E.F.U.C.K.)
We can’t introduce Mike to Mary?
Oh yes please!
Now I am thinking of new combos. Mike and Carla would be fun.
Pretty sure if the two were ever to touch, they’d annihilate, wiping out most of Indiana.
…on second thought, go right ahead
I agree. Who needs Indiana?
Even Mike doesn’t deserve having to deal with Mary. Being so vastly out-assholed would break his soul.
With their powers combined, they are ________!
(Fill in the blank.)
Your mom
Your Face
You misspelled “Faaaaaaaaaace”.
You only get ‘A’s if your roommate commits suicide.
Isn’t pissing Sarah off basically committing suicide?
No she’s seems to be violent only when her friend(s) are threatened.
She will just scowl you to death.
By Ankh-Morpork law, yes.
Sooo… throw him out the window instead of using the bat?
You can read hovertext on mobile by tapping either empty area next to the navigation buttons under the comic.
Well, found another person who doesn’t know about the hover text then. Gotta be a few more still floating around somewhere.
Then there the Luddites like myself who don’t check DoA on their mobile device. That’s what laptops are for.
Seriously, though — I have a 17-inch screen and a full-sized keyboard on the laptop versus a 5-inch screen on my Galaxy S4. No contest.
Laptop permanently hooked up to 32″ TV with wireless keyboard/mouse.
One of my friends has a similar setup, but says she feels awfully self-concious checking her emails.
you don’t find yourself sleeping in other people’s houses and in great need of check the strip of the night?
I read the hovertext, I was just ignoring it.
Does the hovertext also appear on Comic Chameleon?
The Android version kept crashing with a memory leak, so I don’t use it anymore. But the iPhone version I hear is fine.
All I remember is that hovertext worked on xkcd, and I’m glad it did. You press and hold, and it would pop up.
Last time I checked I’m pretty sure it was working for DoA…
It takes quite a bit of fiddling on my Samsung Android … but at least it doesn’t burst into flames;/
Thanks – I read a few comics where it’s set as the alt text for the image, but I didn’t know how to access it here.
Wait, does this mean I need to reread the comic? What aboit Shortpacked? Here’s Walky?!
Wait, does this mean I need to reread the comic?
Yes!
Well, actually starting from here, but Damn-You-Willis retroactively added hovertext to one of the previous comics!
What aboit Shortpacked?
Starting the same day when DoA first had it (or at least about the same day).
Here’s Walky?!
No.
Bonus answer for question that wasn’t asked:
Girls with Slingshots?
Yes for the chaser / re-run.
Does talking to Sarah qualify?
*plays Dire Straights’ “The Bug” on the hacked outdoor P.A. speakers*
It’s spelled ‘Straits’ you fool!
Dire Straights, eh? Sounds like there’s some sort of situation that desperately requires the attention and/or application of some heterosexual folks to maintain order.
No no no. Dire Straights are like Dire Wolves, except straighter. And less extinct.
“The fossil evidence is clear. These unfortunate hominids were physically incapable of any form of non-heterosexual, non-vanilla sexual activity.”
“Not even…?”
“No. See those face-flanges?”
Willis needs to add Dire Wraiths to DoA. And ROM – Spaceknight.
Is Joyce about to suplex Mike? Because that would be awesome. ^_^
Looks like it could be a German Suplex. too.
What we need is a way to see that hovertext on mobile.
Don’t know that, unfortunately.
Fun fact: No Name’s old (but incorrect) substitute works on mobile.
The correct way to do it in HTML does not. Yay for mobile browsers!
Mike seldom gets physical. He’d rather trap you in your web of screw ups and then make your life miserable.
You know, I don’t know why, but I somehow get the feeling Walky is actually the best person to talk to Sarah out of this group.
uhoh
This is obviously a foreshadow to Walky’s turn to the dark side!
I was going to make a joke about dark side and death, but it seemed a bit too much.
I always heard that it was free housing if your roommate died.
So it’s not free cereal?
Only if your roommate left any behind.
Roommate died of unspecified reason –
you already may be a cereal killer!
Walky and Sarah are making friends!!!!
Well, for a given value of “making” and “friends”.
I don’t think Joyce knows that Dina and Sarah have struck up a friendship while she wasn’t looking.
I think this is the start of a beautiful momentary-acknowledgement-when-we-pass-by-each-other.
Or perhaps that pesky ‘object permanence’ hasn’t fully sunk in yet?
I don’t know how Walky got his hands on my feelings about Mike, but I like what he’s doing with them
Keep in mind, he’s Mike’s roommate. His on-panel interactions with him have got to be just the tip of the iceberg.
Pretty sure Walky is just about full up on Mike’s bullshit.
Wonder what their roommate agreements looks like.
1) No face punching!
2) Hands off my mom!
3) No face punching!
…
4) Absolutely no mention of nickels!
i like how walky has just thought of doing the most relatable thing all comic: kill roommate to get good grades
did Joyce just restrain Mike
Will she ever stop aggressively stealing my heart
I’ma gonna go with ‘no’. I do wonder what kind of hat she’ll wear for the next one…
You’ll find that Mike would refer to it as an ‘attempted pick-up line’.
Easy peasy, Walky. Just strike up a conversation about Joyce’s neuroses and/or eating habits and it will last you to class.
Peas?
Joyce is shedding her neuroses a bit at a time. As to her eating habits…
Sarah wont go for that, she based her attempt to make friends with Jacob on those tactics and ended up feeling really bad about it.
But… she said she didn’t want to do that anymore:
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2014/comic/book-4/04-the-whiteboard-dong-bandit/joycestories/
[Repeating Sarah’s comment in the last panel]
I’m not sure if not having a roommate will automatically get you A’s Walky.
White Hat Hacker who’s taken pity on you?
The coincidental fact that I brought this up 3 days ago blows my mind.
Yay! Walky has graduated to the future-prediction levels of a DoA comments-section speculator!
Well, that and Willis does get his fan base.
Coincidentally, do we know what Mike is majoring in? I feel like that would be a fascinating thing to find out.
Social work, according to Willis’ tumblr.
On the supply side? Screwing up peoples’ lives so social workers can try and fix them?
Only mentioned a major, not a career plan. This IS Mike though, so would you really be surprised?
Some would argue that his aggressive desire to expose people’s personality flaws in unpleasant ways that always makes the person’s life worse fits in with the popular stereotype of a social worker.
Huh. I thought it would have something to do with law because of this strip.
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2014/comic/book-4/04-the-whiteboard-dong-bandit/interrogation/
A social work major may be required, or otherwise benefit from, a law class,
And people can brush up on law without taking the relevant classes. Mike seems like the sort of guy who’d make sure to learn the law so he was never liable for tormenting his peers.
I can see that. Some of those charges come up a lot in the news and such as well, so its hardly impossible not to know.
True. He might be intending to go into the Criminal Justice and Corrections field of social services too.
Social workers are everywhere, so no matter where he wanted to work, he might want to brush up on various areas of the law.
Frankly, Mike as a social worker is maybe the most horrifying(ly awesome?) idea I have ever heard. What admissions person allowed that?!? I think they need to be spoken to.
Wait, this is Mike. Right, let me amend ‘spoken to’ to ‘fought’.
Surprising amount of criminal law contingencies in social work. So a major in one and a minor in the other?
TBH, most majors could probably benefit from studying at least one part of the law, but criminal, health, and family law would probably be most pertinent to a social worker.
I think photography.
Of course, this is what I search the tag archive for. Looked like art got upgraded for family weekend, Mike doesn’t know about Amazi-Girl (at least based on how I read the dialog, and this lovely gem.
Should I be evil?
What kind of question is that?
Be the fly in their soup, be the pebble in their shoe
Be the pea beneath all beds and the bump on every head
Be a dagger in the back, an extra turn upon the rack
Share the quivering of the heart – a stabbing pain, a sudden start
‘Cause it’s so pleasing being evil!
This is the life we lead – the Devil tips his hat to me!
So do it all because you’re evil
And do it all for free – their tears sre all the pay you’ll ever need.
I would be very happy indeed to see Joyce discover Voltaire.
She might have a thing or two to say about Death Death Death Death Devil Devil Evil Evil Songs.
Voltaire <3
Wow, Walky, gallows humor
Hmm… Now as well as shipping Joyce and Joe, I find myself shipping Joyce and Mike…
I am conflicted.
I’ve been shipping Joyce and Mike for ages. Welcome to the dark side.
Me too. So wrong but it feels so right.
He brings out my favorite side of her. The punchy side.
I may have to draw a little thing. Just for giggles.
If I do, I’ll share.
because all the ships need art for them. XP
Joyce/Mike doesn’t have a kitschy ship name the way JoJo does.
(Seriously, those strips in the It’s Walky! rerun happened at the exact time necessary to remind me that Joe/Joyce was the friggin’ bomb)
So what do these two have in common…they both have a sister complex? Wait no he would have that more in common with Joyce not Sarah.
I’d actually be interested to see how the self described “bongoy Killjoy Misanthrope” relates to the self described (and… others described?) Asshole.
haha forgot about autocorrect
No the title of “asshole” goes to Mike, Walky on the other hand gets the title of “Smartass shit”
They were referring to Mike. Wally’s never been a self-described asshole that I can recall at the moment.
Walky’s got it all figured out, doesn’t he? The bat, the fingerprints, dying too young, and the automatic ‘A’ for the semester.
If only he’d but that much work into studying, he’d have like, what, a ‘C’?
At least that’s not a F.
Last panel : Joyce vigorously french kissing Mike off panel so he can’t talk.
I support this headcanon.
Undecided, perhaps a debate is still required between Mike and a Nickel.
Or the Glasgae Kiss?
Well, kissing people for the wrong reason is a DoA tradition…
Don’t be silly, Walky.
They’ll give you automatic As because your mom goes way back with the Dean.
Connections make the world go round?
You kid, but I actually wonder if that my become a plot point with his bad grades in math.
I……I can see Mama Walkerton swinging that tbh. Or at least attempting to.
No matter how they react to this, it will be badly.
Joyce, stop cockblocking my new OTP.
Huh… “Grade Expectations”… that’s actually a thing on Snopes…
I was confused by this strip. At first Walky looks really pleased with his plan, but then in Panel 5 it looks like he starts frowning at the thought of getting straight A’s. Which made me think he doesn’t WANT straight A’s for some secret reason (which really puzzled me, considering his grade anxiety). So in Panel 6 he volunteers to talk to Sarah — so that Mike WON’T, thus preserving his life. But the lack of comments echoing my interpretation made me realize I got it wrong.
I think the frown is due to mentioning grades at all – it’s rapidly become an anxious subject for him. He’s been jittery whenever he mentions it.
Thanks, that makes sense.
Yeah, that’s my interpretation as well. Plus, a lot of his pride is wrapped up in his ability to get automatic A’s just for being “smart” rather than needing any trickery, so the reminder that he’d probably need some sort of madcap plan like studying to succeed in Calculus likely depresses him.
It’s a nervous tic brought on by failing his maths tests, compounded by a repugnance to seeking help, and a seeming lack of application in studying.
He was a great student when he was at high school, but what plays in high school doesn’t play so well in Uni.
It’s possibly compounded by the fact that his sister has done well by seeking help in the form of coaching, and being the boyfriend of a straight A’s student who wants to be president who studies all the hours of the day and night.
Because of subconscious twin telepathy, he knows the real answer is to sleep with Jason, and is in denial about that.
NOW it makes sense!
Huh. First time commenting, get a Sal grav. Seems this site knows me well.
There is a secret database link to your permanent record.
Normally I’d ask if I should go delete a couple head canons I have but considering A) The fandom, B) The strip’s content, and C) The existence of slipshines by Willis, I think I’ll be okay.
I think his haunted look is more because he apparently NEEDS a loophole to get straight A’s. Or he thinks he does, anyway. He could always seek outside help but lol
Eff, this was intended as a reply to Jason.
Thanks, makes sense!
Is it just me, or does Joyce walk funny in frame 1?
She’s hopping over a crack so she doesn’t break her mother’s back.
Except, after that last weekend she may be hopping ON the crack.
No Joyce, Mike is into excessive use of force!
Not that I know of, Mike usually used his warped mind to torment people. Not his fists.
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2014/comic/book-4/04-the-whiteboard-dong-bandit/interrogation/
…which leaves me wondering what he’s going to say to Joyce.
Wait wait wait… can that be interpreted as AG admitting she’s turned on… (I mean obviously a shipper could interpret it however they want, but that’s different)
I’m pretty sure that’s the author intended interpretation. Plus it’s a bit of a nod to their Walkyverse relationship.
The cutest thing in this strip? Joyce wrestling with Mike just off the edge of panel 6. Sometimes, Willis draws scenes that seriously reminds you that these characters, despite their adult dilemmas, are still very young and this is one of those times.
Meanwhile, I wonder if Sarah will feel bound to determine why Walky wants to use her baseball bat on Mike? I mean, murdering Mike at least seems a reasonable step for anyone forced to be his room-mate but there has to be a reason and maybe she’s far enough away from his circle that he’ll feel able to talk with her. I hope so because his attempt to deal with his academic performance issues on his own is really impacting on the quality of his life.
Pretty good grab there Joyce, surely caught Mike by surprise :).
Walky turns out being a surprising person to talk to people and help them, as with A.G. on the roof top. So maybe …. he will at least take Sarah’s mind off her decision to try to be social or not to be.
Mike and Joyce ….? Very interesting ship. I’d like to see that happen I think.
Walky is pretty good at small talk (when his smartassery meter isn’t set at ‘buffon’ and he resorts to monkey-flinging), and he and Sarah has had a great bonding experience as kinda sane people in a mad world before. I am cautiously optimistic about their interaction
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2015/comic/book-5/03-the-butterflies-fly-away/truce/
I dunno. Mike and Joyce clearly have the best chemistry out of Mike and anyone else in the cast and Joyce can sometimes get Mike to show a less shitty face to the world, but I’m still hesitant to ship Mike with anyone until he becomes less of an unrepentant abuser.
The thing is that, if Mike wasn’t just trying to press Amazi-Girl’s buttons, it is quite possible that he may interpret Joyce trying to grapple him as a clear come-on!
Mike/Ryan.
…..
…. okay, I don’t know whether this makes me feel vindictively satisfied or just cringey.
I’ve actually been wondering if Mike might end up doing something horrible like Ryan did.
Mike has no apparent sense of boundaries or consideration of other peoples consent to his actions. Wouldn’t that be the twist if Willis sent him down that path, in a “No, it’s not ok even in the people we’re used to and accept as part of our group.”
That’s the saddest I’ve ever seen anyone look at the thought of Mike dying and getting straight ‘A’s.
Yeah. It actually seems that getting As he wouldn’t deserve makes him sad.
Though I’m sure someone else has a more complicated explanation that will make me feel silly.
Walky is surprisingly devious. When Dorothy becomes The President she could make him the boss of CIA XD
I think Mike and Sarah should definitely talk. He’s an asshole, she’s a misanthrope, they’d get along fine.
I don’t think so. Sarah has a heart, whereas Mike… not that I can see. And Mike would totallay call her out on that.
They fight crime!
I remember that urban legend, never thought to use it. But I only had a roomate for the first year, then I got a psycho single for being ADD
Joyce looks like she’s suplexing Mike in that last panel. Awesome.
Nice
and then walky planned to kill mike
And the ironic part is that Mike really likes Sarah and was looking for an excuse to talk to her, but was too shy. Why, yes, I do read far to many high school romance mangas. how could you tell?
So Mike is is either Tsundere or Yandere?
this IS the lead in to a 5 book long baseball arc
Can we please just have mike get suplexed by Joyce in the background? Don’t even acknowledge it, just show it happening.
