Insolent Children Punch Ghosts Real Hard: Paranatural

I mean, they're clearly extremely devoted to their #aesthetic, so a bunch of multicolored contacts would be very in character.

 

so someone posted that latest page (re: RJ being nonbinary) on tumblr and it motivated me to finally catch back up with paranatural, ie. reread paranatural because i had forgotten a lot and also had no idea where i got left behind

some things i had forgotten:
-pnat is really goddamn funny
-i don't think i've ever read a comic with better facial expressions

now i just gotta remember to actually check for updates on tuesdays/fridays

...oh hey it just updated

 

And speaking of both updates and facial expressions, dear lord, that last panel, Johnny, RJ, hooooow?

 

wheezes with laughter

 

Spoiler: dem faces

I skipped normal laughing and went straight to wheezing and crying, jesus

 

I love it when we get little reminders like this that yes, Max is a snark machine, but also he's a massive dork.

 

The alt text, though.

 

By the way! A little late, but a liveblogger I follow pointed out this in the concert RJ attended.

Anarchyopteryx' singer:


Agent 13, from the Consortium:


I knew I liked her for a reason. :D

(Minda speculates that 13's probably a they considering that flashback, but iirc Zack clarified that she's a she at some point back when we first saw her, so I'm assuming that for now. Could be misremembering.)

 

Max: am I just really handsome, or...?
Isaac: Yeah, p much
Isaac: I mean, what?
Isaac: I mean, I'm nowhere nearby and can't actually hear this conversation
Isaac: Never mind

 

I am so glad we live in a world where someone has drawn a dramatic anime blade shine on a juice box straw.

 

Holy shit, Starchman.

 

I'm pretty sure he's not possessed, either. He's just... like this.

 

Which begs the question... is Mr. Garcia possessed, or is he just naturally a juice box straw ninja who sometimes floats down rivers just for the hell of it?

 

Mr. Garcia definitely seems to have some sort of supernatural powers right now, since he was able to blast Isaac away with an invisible wave of force.

 

Don't forget he was also floating in the river that one time, and tried to bribe Max to keep quiet. I don't think it's him, either.

 

Speculation: Mr. Garcia is a secret spectral who just wants to do his teacher thing and sometimes his being weird in the woods thing and just can't be bothered with all of this spirit bullshit.

 

Wasn't it Spender who picked the three teacher suspects? I'm guessing that none of them are possessed, and Max is the one fighting the actual culprit.

 

isn't max fighting the bat demon

 

Is there a bat demon? I entirely forgot about the bat demon.
