Halloween party
on July 24, 2020 at 12:01 amChapter: The Prodigal Son
Characters: David Walkerton, Joyce Brown
Location: Joyce and Walky's apartment
Since this strip, I’ve gotten too portly to be confused for Harry Potter, but considering the state of…. things, that’s honestly for the best.
Is Joyce supposed to be Katara? If so, I approve.
Sapphire Fire.
Walky, you KNOW you should be Wang Fire!
(ignoring the whole “brother and sister pretending to be Dad and Mom” part)
If you have wang fire, you should go get some antibiotics.
I thought it was “Hang Fire“?
You’re Harry Freakin’ Potter!
You don’t understand
You’re a legend man
To us all, every son and daughter safe
From H.A.2
All because of you
You were small
But I wonder if you can recall
Does Walky resemble a character that appeared in the last comic or is it a reference I don’t get?
I think the joke is that he resembles in-universe Willis?
I’m pretty sure of this too, but my initial read was he was dressed as the dead guy his mom dated who became the Cheese, whom both parties resemble.
Oh, basically it’s something like: Are you dressed like God? lol
Well, in-universe Willis is another ex-SEMME agent who was present here and there throughout both Roomies! and It’s Walky!.
(Walkyverse!Maggie is also an abductee, FWIW.)
His abductee superpower is cranking out comics at an alarming pace.
Head Alien: Which superpower do you want?
Child Willis: I want a large buffer!!
Look at the blogpost portion – ‘Since this strip, I’ve gotten too portly to be confused for Harry Potter’…he looks like Willis.
Like Joyce, I thought Walky was dressed as Willis for Halloween at first.
Interesting costume choice for Joyce: Katara from ATLA unless I’m very much mistaken. That makes a lot of sense; in a lot of ways Walky and Aang have very similar personalities!
Not just any Katara. That’s Fire Nation Katara. Or, as pointed out above: Sapphire Fire, the loving wife of Wang Fire: The Fire Nation’s most glorious and beloved soldier.
