I worked very hard to make sure the Oval Office depicted was specifically Clinton’s Oval Office! With the striped chairs and the certain desk and chair. It changes from administration to administration, y’know.
And by “worked very hard” I mean I spent like fifteen seconds on Google Image Search, obviously.
I like how you decided to take the gross Clinton sexual assault “joke” in the original comics and basically just rewrite it with something else.
I’m surprised you let this stuff in, but you wanted to give Joyce more stuff to do I suppose. And you were probably like “it’s the 90’s, Bill Clinton should be in it”
More like “Joyce is great and it’s a shame she’s largely written out of this chunk of the story, let’s give her loads of stuff to do.”
That was pretty much implied with “give Joyce more stuff to do”, but yeah
I love the little spider menacing Clinton. ^^
haha wow, I didn’t notice that until you said it… was kinda confused about the comment for a moment
Awesome foreshadowing. Sort of.
I think it’s building up to the flash of memory Joyce had offscreen in the original– note how she’s reminding Clinton (and also the reader) that her memory was erased, plus the words she’s using are taken directly from the same memory she deus-ex-machina’d out in the original. She’ll almost certainly have that flash of memory onscreen this time.
Joyce should try and get her spiders to attack the abductees.
Yah girls are full of spiders…only Walky…
Neat Clinton office 😉
I knew the sugar and spice and all things nice was just propaganda.
An early mistake about the type of bugs gave us “sugar and spice and everything lice”, and then that was further corrupted.
Look at that fanservice in panel 3. Putting a butt in the center of the frame like that.
For shame. For SHAME.
It’s like he has a disease!
I figured it was just Sal that was full of spiders.
Also, nice one with the reversal joke.
So, this is the mysterious “Guns” who Willis hates so much as to not repurpose her in Dumbing of Age at all. I’m curious to see whether I agree with that assessment in my own read-through.
She kinda looks a bit like the 2012 version of April O’Neil here.
