How does PM know this??? What is happening? And why is part of the mall full of asbestos anyway?

Yeah PM doesn't give a shit about anyone. That is highly worrying. Unless it's established that everyone in this world just fucking hate eachother, I am not exactly a fan of their actions.

WHOA SLOW DOWN JESUS THEY REALLY TURNED THAT CLOWN INTO MEAT????

So our hero is established to be into cannibalism. I can excuse shoplifting and giggling at violence because of this setting, but the fuck is up with cannibalism? Are clowns just...not people anymore?

"Umm you do know PM is not human right? How can they be a cannibal?" Oh you know what I mean, those dudes fucking butchered that clown. I really hope PM doesn't turn into Kathy and turns out they eat their loved ones after they die.

We see that clownhunting is a thing in this world...because of clown meat. I understood that reference.

Oh boy, it's one of THOSE pages, you know, we have references to mystery things like "The Occupation" and also I guess the whole clown hunting thing is a mystery to itself.

PM proves quickly they don't give a shit about shit happening in this world. I hope we do eventually get to see what PM does care about so we don't portray them as this smug fencesitter.

...resistance group consisting of hockey players. We get it, this takes place in Canada.

Now let's talk about how humans are drawn in this comic. Contrasted with cartoony designs for PM and Corrivae they are this bizarre mix of caricature and realism that works way better than say humans from Gene Catlow. That's a testament to how good this artstyle is.

The only thing I am not fan of is that Misty-like haircut. Not even in post-apocalyptic world would anyone actually have that.

Muscles for Chalo, and how

Hysterical overacting women in Dominic Deegan

The author's poorly disguised fetish

The author's proudly displayed fetish

The author's fetish you're pretty sure they don't realise they have

The author's fetish which they're firmly convinced everyone has and is just pretending otherwise

The author's non-sexual special interest which just sounds like a fetish because of their habitually unfortunate phrasing

The fetish the author is making a well-meaning effort to cater to in spite of clearly not understanding it themselves

The author's fetish that never quite makes it into the text because they keep getting sidetracked by the requisite worldbuilding

The author's utterly pedestrian sexual preference which the text treats like a bizarre fetish because they've got shit to work through

The author's seemingly innocuous recurring trope they're going to have a personal revelation about ten years down the road

The author's fetish you missed on a first reading because it's so far out of pocket, it never occurred to you that you could sexualise that

[goddamnwebcomics]

So far this is less "post-apocalyptic world in Mall" and more "cyberpunk dystopia in Mall". As you can tell by the guy dressed up like Tron man.

And turns out it was all a wacky misunderstanding. And then we see...

[goddamnwebcomics]

PM decides to shoplift, naturally. Because fuck paying for stuff when it's the end of the world.

And we actually learn Faucher is the owner of the mall. I guess he's the big villain type character, and I guess that's what that graffiti really meant.

[goddamnwebcomics]

Naturally, PM is just gonna be cool and party like it's 1985. The sequel to 1984.

Yeah I wonder if we're ever gonna find out how this apocalypse happened and why people are specifically living in this mall. For all we know it could be a "rest of the world got nuked" situation.

[goddamnwebcomics]

PM returns to their home as we get...somewhat out of place chibi body but I am not going to complain. The tone is definitely well-established.

[goddamnwebcomics]

I have to say, not since Spinnerette's White Heron arcs have I seen such professional artstyle.

Turns out this is indeed post-apocalyptic. Oh hey, nature! I am so glad we're not going with "In cyberpunk dystopias and post-apocalyptic hellscapes, nature magically stopped existing" angle. Death of humanity is not the death of rest of the Earth you know, yeah I know humanity is not dead in this comic but, whatever.

[goddamnwebcomics]

Now I'm just expecting Rolling Giant to show up, and what's with the arrow to indicate they are looking up?

And that graffiti translates to "Reap, your death is near". It's not a quirky reference to something, so it's definitely fittingly ominous.

[goddamnwebcomics]

Unfortunately, America is here to ruin everything as always. And PM shoplifted a walkie-talkie I guess? What are they gonna do with that?

[goddamnwebcomics]

Why does Corriveau have such enormous paws????

And PM doesn't want to turn this into Console Girl 2 so they leave. So far this post-apocalyptic comic isn't very...post-apocalyptic. Is this a flashback?

[goddamnwebcomics]

Turns out shadowy figure is Corriveau and working as a clerk in this post-apocalyptic mall and PM is apparently a freeloader hanging around the premises.

Of course the artstyle tends to go into Alien Dice-style chibi faces every so often, but at long as it stays consistent to the tone I don't have a problem with it.

Though, we have no clue what is really going on.

[goddamnwebcomics]

We begin our story with this cat-bunny hybrid playing on their console, when suddenly this shadowy figure shows up. And Super Megason hahahahaha.

Damn, it took me forever to see the monitor. No wonder they have to squint.

So far, the artstyle is really good. There is so much you can do with monochrome art.

[goddamnwebcomics]

By any chance are you comfortable with riffing one-shots?

Sure why not.
