So we were all thinking danny phantom identity crisis during pink's bossfight right?

Who will you choose? 👻

Bonus content under the cut:

danny died. sam and tucker watched their friend die, and encouraged him to do the thing that caused his death. now there are ghosts attacking their home and putting people in danger. they feel totally helpless. they can't "fix" what happened to danny, and they can't shut off the portal for good. but fighting ghosts feels like something real and tangible that they can do in response to this thing that happened. they can figure out danny's new powers and try to protect the people they love. it's also a way to establish a new normal, the monster of the week routine that replaces the one they had before (danny's line about "usually we beat the bad guy, learn some lesson about honesty or something, and go home." what does a teenage boy who is in a freak accident and develops superpowers do? he becomes a superhero). they cope by trying to be proactive, to do something instead of sit around and be helpless, but in turn they're kind of using ghost hunting to ignore this traumatic thing that happened to them, and they're not ready to face what this actually means for danny and the life he'll life (dead kids can't be astronauts).

similarly, valerie's life was totally destroyed. she lost her home, her money, her friends, her dad lost his job. this is all too broken to fix. and even if everything got reset back to the way it was before, now she knows what it's like to be overworked and helpless, she knows how quickly she can lose the security she has, and she knows that her friends love for her was superficial. she can't do anything about this. but she can try to stop what happened to her from happening to anyone else. she can try to eliminate the thing that caused her life to fall apart in the first place. like the main trio, valerie is using ghost hunting to be proactive about her problem. it makes her feel more in control of her life. valerie now sees the world as dangerous and untrustworthy, and has vowed to be someone who will bring safety and stability to other people. this also is not a great coping mechanism, and doesn't address the insecurity she feels as a response to what happened to her.

vlad was in a freak accident and then had to watch the person who caused it live the life he always wanted to live. he's used his newfound powers to make sure something like this would never happen to him again. he's not going to be a helpless victim stuck in a hospital bed anymore. in fact, he'll be the perpetrator. he has money, he has status, he has smarts, he has hired henchmen and ghost weapons and complete mastery over his powers. no one is stronger than him, so he'll never be hurt again. all he needs now is that life that he lost. so he's obsessed with destroying jack and taking what he feels should have been his. once he does that, his life will finally be back on track, and he will be strong enough to ensure that he never loses it ever again. vlad is desperate for his life to go back to the way it was "supposed" to go. this will never happen. he's in denial.

Ep 3 Pg 49 - Size matters.

Randy is clear in what he wants.

Man, finishing this page was a CHORE. I got a veritable conga of bad news, one after the other, that will make these next few months a little difficult. Nothing too bad, I'll just have to tighten the belt a little.

Despite that, I managed to finish this week's page almost in time. And man, these guys are so dumb, and I love them!

Anyway, see you next week!

He’s so
