I pretty much doubt that.

Actually, it could be Tarot. I think it's Tarot, too.

I don't think it is, that would be too predictable.

I don't think it's Tarot; it'll just ruin the mystery for me.

Why does every mysterious character have to be another character? Maybe Spookmaster is Spookmaster.

Well its kind of natural to guess that a mysterious character might be someone you already met in the story.

Yeah, I also think Spookmaster is a new (and maybe minor) character. I think there is no existing character who fits the talking style of Spookmaster anyway.

A lot of characters have only showed up once anyway. It's entirely possible this is the only arc in which it appears.

That's crazy talk.

Spookmaster is clearly the Great Kitsune who's Daisy who's Carlos Mencia.

That's impossible. Great Kitsune is clever. He could never be a mindless catch-phrase spewer with no sense of humor. He couldn't be Daisy either.

So it can't be Liam then.

You know I'm kidding.

Correct, in reality I'm the Exalted Space Chartreu, the creator of cats, ice cream and Halo.

I should have known!

^Liam works for Bungie.
HE MUST DIE.

That's not a very nice thing to say.

Spookmaster is Love.

...Wow.

That is so awesome. It kind of reminds me of the occasional bizarre 8-Bit Theater strip that looks kind of like that.

I don't think Max is ever going to be the same after this one. Also

geez, I'd hate to see what's "go rough on him" is like O_O

"Oh, man.

Not again."

dalonewolf25 · Post by **dalonewolf25** » Wed Oct 27, 2010 12:11 am

EPIC WIN

EDIT: I've seen this before...and Max, for some reason, looks like you want to save him really badly, but you can't...

Drive it on up and let's cruise a while
Leave 'em very far behind
You can hedge your bet on a clean corvette
To get you there right on time

Now if you're ready to dive into overdrive
Baby the green lights are on
It's like you're runnin' away on some high octane
Every time she reached the boulevard

The best part is Max's face. Why does his face make me feel like a miserable lout for not jumping into the strip to save him?

the boy is a raging nip-fiend, you know

it's probably not the first time he's been taunted by a chimera

Either that or those Ghosts are that evil.
I wonder what would he do to HURT him...

You don't think in the space of a blink what if it's all taken away?

Shut out the light

Snatched from your hand like a candle-lit flame,
You won't be prepared when they all shout your name.

Shatter the glass

Close yourself off while your life is unfurled,
Don't think of death or the end of the world.

Shout at the night

Don't give an ear to the quietest fear of all,
Should you unprepared for the barrier to FALL

I think you'd make a decent poet Rick

How would you tell the order from the image? I couldn't.

So that's what the spirit was talking about. Talk about cutting to the core, man. Jeez.

I sort of guessed; I moved the lines around and thought this one worked the best.

Private Elliot · Post by **Private Elliot** » Wed Oct 27, 2010 12:49 am

God, Rick's hardcore.

Talk about your subliminal messages...

Post by **Dissension** » Wed Oct 27, 2010 12:53 am

I daresay these messages are superliminal.

Rarely do I want to hug Max, but this is at least five of those times.
