Brad Guigar - Chapter 17, Page 27 | Catching Feelings
infoAbout This Title
Dr. Muskiday’s macronano converter is ready for its first field test. All he needs is a volunteer to lure one of the little emotional parasites into range.
Fortunately, HoloClone Miss Match has been rehearsing for this moment her entire artificial life.
The good news: Muskiday’s invention works! It converts the macronano back into harmless micronanos and releases its stored emotional energy into the atmosphere.
The bad news: Anyone nearby may experience some unexpected side effects.
And just like that, we're back at the occult-supply bodega from Chapter 10 (Evil Inc eComic 52).
Behind the scenes: Meet Queen Nephie
The goth girl in the final panel is loosely based on cosplayer Queen Nephie, who keeps popping up in my TikTok feed as part of YouTuber David Alvareeezy’s dating-show videos.
She appeared as one of the four members of the “Goth House” in Goth Girls Blind Date 7 Nice Guys, and her look was simply too good not to inspire a character.
