That doesn’t look anything like Jeremiah Keener!!!!
I don’t know if I ever actually spell this out, but there’s zero chance Head Alien II didn’t kill Dorothy’s parents.
Did basically everybody who died die from a Head Alien
In a “degrees of bacon” way, yes
That second panel is uh, too close to reality.
Sorry about your book store.
Her unseen adoptive parents could be her DOA parents?
I mean, they died in an accident so they *are* dead on arrival, but I meant in Dumbing of Age.
I thought Dorothy’s parents in DoA were her biological parents.
They are, and IIRC they were initially created for the Freshman Family Weekend arc (unlike most other parents, who were ported over from the Walkyverse).
That may not look like Jeremiah, but hey You’d look like shit to if you were dying from a mystery cancer.
And yeah, I was thinking that too.
Huh. Well… shit.
I never put that together. I guess I expected any HA2 murders to be more heavily telegraphed. Like “that mysterious unexplained freak accident” instead of a very sad, very casual “accident”.
Friend? Dorothy, didn’t you talk to Walky all of once? I guess that counts.
Head Alien II killed her bio-parents?
Ok, that makes perfect sense… haven’t thought about it.
So that means, he probably got her adopted dad ill also?
Her adopted mom? Have we met her ever?
Is Head Alien II her adopted mom? 😛
Other way around – adoptive parents died in an accident. This is her biological dad, who she just tracked down.
And “illness nobody understands” just screams Head Alien’s intervention.
As does ‘same time, same accident’ – that’s pretty much exactly what a cover story would say happened to the Walters (ie, Sal’s adopted parents, Beef’s biological ones.)
Assuming, with Sal and their bodies missing and (apparently) no one else on that highway at the time, given Head Alien was there in the flesh, there’d be anyone who’d know. But.
