Not going to argue with that.

Guess what! We finally have some copies of the second Gunnerkirgg Court Omnibus from Dark Horse in our Topatoco store! We have both the softcover and hardcover in limited supply, so be sure to take a look and get one before they are all gone! Each of the hardcovers has a page signed by me in the front!
The books came out really great, and it's a great way to read books 3 and 4 in one complete package!
Comments
Time for a check in with Jenny and Jack?
Annie: “But I’ve decided that the court’s efforts will not be at the expense of others.” Jack and Jenny probably: “…And THEN Annie said she was gonna give everyone BOOGER AIDS”
Take a moment to get used to not being omnipotent...
Fools to trust this one.
Reminds me of Kuvira at the end of Legend of Korra: "I understand why you did this" "I'm sorry" "You're still under arrest".
Zara and Rosa are finally doing something else than just passively sitting and watching. Even if it is just standing up to see the guests out... or will they accompany them outside on their quest?
Will the former Miss Omega now become an advocate for people's rights?
The GOSSIP those girls are gonna have! Down with Jane! She’s suspicious! And I guess it pays to have Kat see things as simple as she does. Funny how the crow will always be Omega’s go-to. A bird that watches…
Are you sure you have enough information to truly understand, Meg?
"Come along. Let's get you out of here. I know some romantic locations where we can get to know one another better."
A comment I heard about a different character and something that applies to Omega: “She wants to survive, and she’ll steal every advantage and struggle as fiercely as she has to” and really, true. Whilst I fully disagree with her method, Omega wants what everyone does. To survive, to live.
When did Tony’s mind cage break????
She understands something being at someone’s expense at least, given her history.
Okay, now Jenny knows that it was Omega who talked to Jack, that she works for the court and that Annie and Kat are indeed able to harm others to achieve their goal which has something to do with Omega's powers and the distortion.
Omega acting all frail and helpless in front of her crush.
I have decided.
Annie speaks of what she has decided, as if she is in any role of decision in the Court.
Well, that will be a bundle of news for the Coven and no mistake.
Smooth Tony
I like this so much: that is exactly what I thought when reading the last page - Omega is not suddenly "evil" again, but despite her gratefulness she still has a strong loyalty to the Court because she associates it with "her Charles". She also has a vested interest to continue her existence in its current form, thus the refusal to end the distortion. Instead of antagonizing her over that and pressuring her, Annie (and Tony) get to the core of the problem, mention it directly and full of understanding, and take the first step to reconcile these diametral loyalties Omega currently has. Great writing (and great art as always :) ) !
The chemistry between Tony and Meg is practically igniting the page! Well, by Carver standards anyway :-)
no way it ends just that quietly
The fact they feel they have to speak to her as if she were a small child.... Fitting for someone so closely allied with the Court for so long and so sympathetic toward their end goals.
I do wonder about the relationship between Jones and the coven. Do they see Jones as a personification of Gaia? Is sher a part of the coven's pantheon?
Not gonna blame the demi god really. I really like her style.
Omega swapping between her villainess and small child personas is giving me whiplash.
Jack is going to want to Kill Omega as well as Kat when he’s told this. I think he and Jenny, ever since the beach summoning, have been operating on the assumption that whatever Kat’s motive for killing Zimmy is, MIGHT already have been in play. The cruel irony is, had Omega left well enough alone, had she not forced their hands by kidnapping their parents and then underestimating their brilliant resourcefulness, Kat would never have gotten access to that dangerous information! I don’t see how Jack would not develop a burning hatred for Omega once he figures it out. It’ll be all the more bitter because he should also realize that Kat And Annie were still his friends all along, even at this moment. But won’t be for much longer. Perhaps Kat’s digital instance is stumbling across that horrible secret even now, waiting to upload it to her meat brain until after this sensitive exchange is over!
The witches seem a little confused. At this point, they might be wondering if they've been working for the wrong side.
Anne decided UNILATERALLY. She and Kat really are acting like gods
Also, why the smoking
