Lets give Alex some credit, that last question: totally valid!

is it just me…
or does Alex look suspiciously like he’s skipping in the last panel?

between keeping Alex dumb and fuzzy vs. smarter but colder, I vote for colder and smarter. Or at least just smarter. …Much smarter. No character development = boring, and I for one have a hard time suspending disbelief when trying to put Alex in the mental category of ‘Chosen One.’ The only ways to balance without a smarter Alex is via Battle Butlers (Alex’s friends, other ‘subordinates’ that do all the heavy lifting for planning and strategy) or by nerfing the (so far) incredibly powerful villain. Neither is a good choice. Nicodemus is great, it would suck a lot to see him go through plot-driven badass atrophy. On the other hand, Alex is soooo far from being able to stand on his own planning capabilities that for him to suddenly develop competence would be a hard sell indeed.

I like how Alex still kinda considers the option in the penultimate panel.

I think I’d rather have Alex be a bit dumb and good hearted than cold-hearted and smarter.

I’m gonna guess it’s not as simple as believing you can fly, Scotty?

Yeah, it’s a great page. BTW scott, didn’t you say that you were going to see the Star Trek movie when it comes out? Well, I watched it today and it was EPIC! (Yes, I know today is the 7th. It came out early where I live .) I’ll say no more as this is completely off topic.

I found this comic yesterday and just had to read it all last night. It’s amazing. Thank you for creating something like this!

Alex is sooo going to jump off himself at a dramatic time.
Not that it won’t be awesome.

I agree, Distant, but the urgency of his situation has to sink in sometime. Also, his old profile once mentioned that he’s actually smart, just undriven (Like the teachers used to despair over me, I never believed them.)
