 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
Not sure if Rick actually forgot he hadn't ended this story or if he just decided to wait until now to finish it. either way, I like it.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
Looks like Rick forgot the strip of purple outlining the outside of her right ear, and her arm doesn't seem to have the usual thickness (compared to her forearm in panel 2 for example). Other than that I don't see anything different.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
Glad I just finished watching Memento. I smell some references afoot.
Edit: Or I could read the alt-text. Rookie mistake...

Man that was a good movie. If this arc were Memento-themed that would be awesome.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
Memory relapse episodes involving photos usually make me take three guesses: either the Cyborg is Spot's brother, mentor or boss  Fathers are so 80's.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
because it was fixed. I don't know if it was Rick or if you have the power to tag strips and you're just messing with us.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
Maybe it's just me but when I read the title for everyone's, but Sleet's, posts it looks like Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo. Which makes me think about an arc focused strictly on Spo being like Batman or Spiderman. Also, I love how Peanut has all his comics in that box.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
it's because the post title has a character limit, and the "Re:" pushes the t beyond that limit.
ooh, I like the way Peanut thinks.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
I actually sense a recursion coming on. This is the fake world, Spot actually did get caught by the Cyborg, but it was in the current time and is tricking Spot into thinking that he's in the past.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
So this is the Spot version of PsyCon? Yes. They are great faces. I see two new avatasr in somebody's future. It turns out Spot (Superdog) has actually trapped The Cyborg in a false reality.

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
Not so much as tricking Spot into thinking that he's in the past, he's got Spot dreaming or forced into thinking that The Cyborg will always lose. Probably forever. Meanwhile, the Cyborg does all his evil deeds while he's asleep oh noooooes!

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
no I mean that spot's in a virtual reality helmet now that's making him think he's in a virtual reality helmet back when he first encountered the cyborg. everything since then actually happened but the Cyborg wants to mess with him and make him think it didn't.

What's cool about that analogy though? Stripe is also hooked up to that machine. Hmmm!

 Re: Arc # 62: The Retroactively Continuous Adventures of Spo
Which is probably part of the reason Grape's upset...the one time that Stripe (not a Cat) fights for herself turns out to be an illusion. I like the little posing the characters do when they are embarassed or nervious by holding two fingers together the way Peanuts doing here and has often been done in the past. Is this a traditional anime shortcut or an original Rick trademark? Mod Edit: Please do not double post.

I may have actually seen a pony do the closest thing it can without fingers.

From my days of writing Sonic the Hedgehog fanfiction as a foolish 12-year-old, I can attest to the fact that pulling random, convoluted garbage out of no where makes you feel oh so intelligent and unpredictable.
