If you read Gunnerkrigg Court, you have. An entire city of black goo leaking from eyesockets. And then there's the bad stuff.

I'm getting some serious Silent Hill vibes here. The blood, the chain-link fence, the altered architecture...oh my god is that PYRAMID HEAD BEHIND YOU!?

I still can't tell if this is a flashback to the thing Devyn and her friend swore they would never talk about--it was an accident after all . .
I suppose if a young paranormal used to holding back her "magic" got provoked into letting it go, it could spread over a 10 block area before she got it back under control. Technically that would be an accident as it was only intended for the two bullies in close proximity. Reminds me of the early days of the cold war when some genius come up with the idea of atomic warheads for use in a cannon. The only problem is, they don't make a cannon that can shoot one far enough that the radiation doesn't kill the people shooting the cannon. Or as my Marine friends like to say:
"When the pin is pulled, Mr. Grenade is not our friend"

Flashback or current time, things are bound to get worse before they get better.

So these two nitwits are now experimenting how their words and actions make Devyn feel . . . gives the expression "Hoist with his own petard" a whole new perspective.

It's not that I don't feel sorry for the two bullies, I just don't want to. . . .
Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?

The sound track for this needs to be Mister Rodgers singing "Its a beautiful day in the neighborhood"

Did she perhaps previously live in Silent Hill?

So the way I read today's page, that little insert that was not in Creepy Town seemed a little "present day Devyn recalling the event" and everything else is what happened. Anyone else read it that way? Or are we all just waiting for Paul to show us how far off base everyone is with their theories? :P

I'm thinking it was "transition phase". The girls still saw her, then she turned around (bri-iight-eyes...).

Uh oh. . .Devyn's mascara might not meet the school's dress code!
Dave wrote:So... is it just creepy illusion? Just an image projection of what Devyn is feeling?

Or, is there actually such a place, in one of the other dimensions, to which Devyn "breaks through" if she doesn't resist the pull of darkness and despair? Is she a living gateway to Places You Would Rather Not Be?
Well, we already have several long-established characters who are walking "doorways" to other realms. This might be what happens when the doorway's lock isn't of the best make.

'Are you going to cry?' is just a wonderful reply.

This sure throws that whole "and words shall never hurt me" nonsense out the window. I suspect that from now on, these two are going to be very careful about what they say to whom.

You've just made it clear who is the most dangerous couple at Gryphon High... the ones voted most likely to disrupt and terrify.

It's Devyn (the doorway), and Jimmy (the lock).

On the same day in 1986 they got letters from lawyers for Mr Rogers and REM (separately) saying "Stop messing with our songs!"

Thr Mr Rogers was basically a death-metal version of the theme song; their REM parody was obscene. Fairly funny - they only did that one live.
