@superexplosive I just received my 8-Bit Theater 20th Anniversary Script Book! It's a beautiful tome. I will treasure it as if it actually contained the comic and not just your heathen words and commentary. It should also prove useful should I be accosted by an intruder and require a bludgeon; it may well be the largest and heaviest hardcover in the house.

me in jan ‘22: wow if I had a nickel for every sci-fi property I follow that really pulled some punches in the finale, I’d have two nickels. the expanse finale was pretty spot-on for the books but it wouldn’t have been too shocking if they offed a main character on account of Last Episode (Probably Ever, Even If We Won’t Admit It). but vengeful dead was…way nicer to us than I expected, given that we already mourned jenkins years ago. a bit unlike brian, honestly.

me now: *looking at agents of change and all that brian has teased for the future* had to open my big mouth, didn’t I.

To be fair it was a lot easier back then to be a weird internet basement guy back when people had basements. Most people "paylessly" running websites were actually being supported by friends and family and pouring more than a full time job's amount of effort into it, and lots of them did take donations. It's gotten harder over time for the same reasons that every other form of art has.

I am actually old enough to remember when people did old geocities-like pages where they talked about their hobbies for free without expecting any kind of profit, and they're still around if you know where to look. Old forums (again, still around) are paid by the admins, sometimes doing a community collect, but then again since old board systems don't have to maintain algorithms and other bullshit they don't exactly consume that much. The word "influencer" didn't even exist ten years ago.

I have no idea how the whole "people treating things that started 15 years ago as unchangeable facts of life" phenomenon is called but I've never seen it so much until the notes of that post.

I love Emma, she's great! Atomic Robo has some really good one off supporting characters.

What do you think of atomic robo x Jenkins (if you're still into that comic)

Generally, I like Atomic Robo in a way that doesn't compel me to stack "shipping" on top of the story as it stands. (The humorous/matter-of-fact/low-key approach to romance is kind of a draw for me.)

That said, the Robo/Jenkins relationship sure has a "male soul bonding thru fires of battle, muscle meets and respects muscle" thing going on, with all those possible homoerotic connotations. The idea that you find the only other person indestructible enough to keep up with you, that's a deeply compelling type of partnership, you know? I think Brian Clevinger said the goal was that it's never totally clear which one is actually the sidekick to which.

So some old-married-coupleness comes with the territory. It doesn't hurt that Alan totally imprinted on Jenkins as a second, cooler dad. (Or that Jenkins is one of the few Action Scientists to have a clear and complete character arc. Funny, since he seemingly evolved out of a 2012 era Chuck Norris type joke. Any bit character can become a Real Boy/Girl when properly cherished.) It's fun, I just don't have much more to say about it than the comic itself does.

Atomic robo has ruined sci-fi for me because it's fake science is based on real science and it explains how it's fake science works and how it would work with real science OR they just make robo get upset that the fake science is to fake

And now those are my sci-fi standards

Damn you Brian clevinger
