Location: Professor Doc's lab
Head Alien’s little speech in Panel One is definitely testing some waters for Dumbing of Age. My characters COULD’ve hooked up with other folks! *cough cough walky and dorothy cough cough* Even dead people! *cough cough billie and ruth cough cough*
you’ll note i decided that alt jason and sal would decide to not give their spawn the last name of an interdimensional murderous warlord

Oh no there are two Brock Docs
Oh no this one is even Squickier
Professor Doc confirmed to like the name “Brock” in multiple universes
What do you want to bet that “Doc” actually was his Dumbiverse counterpart’s original last name and he legally changed it to “Brock” because nobody would take “Professor Doc” seriously?
Thinking about Anti-Joyce’s kid having the last name Brown and what the birth certificate situation in general must have been like.
Well, it wouldn’t have been Anti-Brown
So, given that “our” Anti-Joyce actually did sleep with (read: sexually assault) Jason very shortly after her creation in the Walkyverse proper… should we take from this that she was/would-have-become pregnant if Joyce hadn’t killed her? Like, I don’t buy into the life-begins-at-conception thing, but still… that’s not kewl, Joyce.
She assaulted Jason, but the one she slept with was Mike. I don’t think she and Jason achieved any activity that could result in pregnancy on the floor of the pub.
Huh, yeah. Born from two people who officially weren’t born in that world.
I’m just amused by the fact that Willis (almost certainly unintentionally) gave a half-British, half-American time traveler a name that sounds identical to that of a Doctor Who companion infamous for her half-British, half-American accent.
hahhhahahahaha
Well put.
First time she showed up, I was like “what is that accent?”
To be fair, Nicola Bryant has gotten much better at pulling off the accent since the 1980s, if you listen to the audio dramas. Still not perfect, but it’s no longer grating to listen to.
Whenever a Brit does a bad American accent, I just accept it as payback for all the terrible British accents every American geek group is full of.
Name: Perry Brown
Mother: Anti-Joyce Brown
Father: Jason Chesterfield
(Unless they married and he took her surname.)
Honestly, that whole ‘you can be compatible with a million different people’ bit is why I don’t believe in soulmates. I think you can potentially be right with a fuckton of people. Sure, there’s an element of chance in meeting one of them, but overall, you don’t need the pressure of the one perfect person.
I love that we’re getting more names for the alt universe kids! I don’t think Paige’s was known beforehand.
Maybe, but what are the chances that there are some people who are better for you than others? There’s always a chance that there is someone who can make you happy other than a certain partner but it’s not a guarantee you’d be as happy as you would be with them.
Well, yeah, obviously some people will be better for you than others, but I do think there’s multiple people you can work out equally well with and be as happy. At a certain point, you might lose interest in seeking that out and that’s fine, but I think the idea there’s only one person you can work out with is EXTREMELY unlikely.
What’s the “interdimensional murderous warlord” a reference to? Are Brock and Perry supposed to be names of murderous warlords? Is it something else I am not getting?
Paige’s last name is Walters, not Chesterfield, because Dargon sucks
You know what would have been cool story line? If Dragon Chesterfield and Head Alien prime (I have my doubts that head alien 2 is actually from the prime timeline) waged an multiversal war with each other that somehow winded up getting SEMME agents involved.
Ah, okay. Thanks!
Glad to see that Anti-Joyce got married and had a kid and lived happily ever after.
Probably. Ignore the last name bit. And that the kid kid is here now.
“Married” might not be the word.
Why does JasonxSal’s offspring kinda… look like DoA Dorothy?
She definitely does, as I thought she was Dorothy for a moment there.
Have we ever seen DoA Dorothy’s parents? Have we?
…Oh, it turns out we have, never mind.
I think the biggest reason we don’t see Jeremiah and Deborah Keener very much is simply because they’re… actually good parents, so Dorothy doesn’t really have much in the way of parental trauma to be explored. When we do see them, it’s primarily to contrast them with the other characters’ parents in some way. With that said, they do tend to show up more than any of the other non-awful parents.
As an aside, can I just say I really love the way Willis designs parents for their characters? Like, a lot of the time in comics or animation one parent will look just like the kid and the other not at all, or both of them will look identical to the kid, but with a few exceptions the parents in DoA actually manage to both look like their kid(s) without looking so much like eachother that it’s creepy.
I thought Brock Doc was the child of a Professor Doc and his female clone, not him and Dina. Or are there two different future kids named “Brock Doc”?
Evidently, there are in fact two.
It makes sense, there were two different kids with different moms named “D.J. Wilcox”. Unlike the D.J.s, though, the two Brocks are evidently similar enough for the tags to consider them alternate versions of the same person despite having different moms. I’m guessing something similar probably also applies to Walkyverse and Dumbiverse Billie/Jennifer.
Or the disturbing implication that that world’s Dina is a female Prof. Doc clone
I’m not the only one for whom this is new info, I hope. I’m strapped in for a helluva ride now.
