Not completely her fault there. Tabitha was just a hyperactive kid who was dumped on Sabrina by Endora a lot, who honestly should've started charging money since it kept happening a lot instead of just outright stopping taking her mother's calls. This is more of a lesson for the little one to learn that babysitting is a hell of a lot more work than just hoping kids play quietly while she's messing with her tablet all day not watching them.

I'd be really surprised, TBH, considering that the Amiga CD32 was never actually sold in the USA. (Commodore went bankrupt before they could launch it in the US market.) Eric would either had to have specifically sought it out from a "grey-market" dealer who specialized in imported consoles from Europe, or possibly managed to score one off of eBay much later on... and honestly, Eric doesn't strike me as being as much of a "gamer" that he would go to the trouble.

Honestly, it's not hard to get something imported by getting it on Ebay. And Ebay's been around like what, 20 years? If it's retro technology, and usable, and has the name Amiga branded on it. Then I've no doubt EWS either has it or wants it. The Amiga CD32 was basically an overpriced console that was made using PC parts. They priced it too high, and that's why it failed. But if they'd cut the price in half and made a better controller for it, then I've no doubt it could have been decent competition for the other gaming console giants of the 90s. XBOX basically did the same thing of being a console made with PC parts. And XBOX is one of the top 3 today. Commodore could have made it work if their management wasn't shit. And if that console had worked out, there's a chance we'd have Amiga or Commodore home video game consoles competing with the others now.

Wasn't there an arc in the original run where Sabrina had to send her Amiga to Germany for maintenance or something?

Yeah, her motherboard crapped out. And she had to send it half way around the world to be fixed. And that wasn't even her real Amiga. That was just a franken PC she built to sort of be like a new Amiga. She basically avoided mainstream computers and Windows like the plague.

EWS seems to have gone out of his way to avoid saying what kind of PC Sabrina uses at work. But in one image Sabrina admitted to having to use Windows, among the other systems she prefers. It really wouldn't surprise me if Sabrina's work computer had to run Windows, since that's a standard most places. And if she did use a different system, she might be the only one in the office. And since ZZ didn't seem to have a problem figuring out how to do things on Sabrina's work computer, However, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Windows. More recently Sab even brought in RC to help with the new system. And he's the Windows expert.

All that's really just theory. But it could be true.

My guess is Sabrina's work PC does have to run Windows. But she tries like hell to do any work she possibly can from home on her older off brand PCs. She claimed to still use them professionally. But I bet that only translates to a fraction of her actual work. I wouldn't doubt it though if Sabrina's work station at the studio actually ran more than one computer. I can see her having both a Windows, and a Linux. And she'd probably use the Linux as much as possible before having to use the Windows.

I kinda miss the days of the webcomic where Sabrina chatted with Carli in a chatroom. I wouldn't mind seeing a page of that once and a while.

The odds of Sabrina using Apple/MAC at work are pretty low. She once debated getting a MAC when her franken PC broke. With one even saying "You know you want me" in a window. But she seems to avoid them. I wonder if the reason Sabrina avoids MAC is because it's the easy alternative to Windows. I mean, she went out of her way to use hard to get hardware that was a pain to use/repair. She's like Sheldon Cooper in the Big Bang Theory when he got a new laptop. He said the new one came with Windows 7 instead of Vista. And that Windows 7 was more user friendly, and that he didn't like that. EWS/Sabrina seem like they prefer taking the harder rout out of weird personal preference to avoid mainstream tech. Ego, not using Apple/MAC because it's simply too easy an option to go with.

With that I imagine it's because EWS prefers to live in a different time. If you watch an anime called: Uncle From Another World, a guy in his 30s came back from an isekai that whisked him away in like 1999. So he went out of his way to get a cellphone that he wanted back in the 90s, even though he can't actually connect it to a network. So he just uses it to talk with spirits.

A little weird that Sabrina's feeling conflicted about this since in the last storyline she wanted to give out Tabitha's "services" as a recommendation to Carli and Spike while explicitly not telling her young sister about the litter of kids the two have. Maybe it's a small bit of regret seeped in after the moment? Also, does Endora still pester Sabrina for babysitting? Again. Why? Warren never seems to go anywhere as far as we know.

She's been annoying since the very beginning of this series. Not sure how that's easy to forget considering that's her entire character. Frankly I hope this storyline will at least show more characteristics of her outside of this one trait now that she's going to receive relentless amounts of karma.

SO/Wrestlemania Story Furrynomous 2023/02/22 21:08:32 No.2255429
>>2255163

Speaking of crashing and burning, whilst still working on my Helen Dish Railroading-B&B story, I came up with another one.

Following a night of wrestling, thanks to some tickets Tina managed to score, ZigZag comes up with a new movie, basing it on wrestling manoeuvres, but during rehearsals nobody has any idea how to wrestle, never mind thinly disguising it as sex. Sadly, Sabrina overreacts when a professional wrestler ZigZag asks to come over a teach them, has ZigZag jackknifed in an arm-lock and hits him over the head with a chair, knocking him out.
To avoid him loosing his chance at winning the cirucit, (and prevent legal proceedings once out of hospital) Sabrina ends up taking his place in the ring - and ZigZag as her tag-team partner!
This later involves Spike having a cameo, and a couple of surprising twists at the end - and one of them is the prize money...

I'll write this up much later, but this is just the general gist of it.

I blame the fact that very few of them have any actual depth to their development. Most are just made as fanservice fodder, and the rest all have the same handful of personality quirks that make them almost indistinguishable from one another.

EWS also has a very decent and recognizable style, and he has an obvious high level of talent... but he also hasn't *improved* much at all in the 25+ years he's been doing the Sabrina series. The art style looks almost identical to how it did during his early days, and for an artist to not see any amount of measurable improvement after doing a regular series for THAT LONG is kinda... Odd.

A long-winded way to say: EWS has always been a better artist than he is a writer, but not even his art has seen any improvement in 25 years. I think that's the reason I find it hard to get into this new sequel series, despite being a big fan and reader of the original for quite a few years. The characters have aged, but they haven't GROWN.

It's been said before in the old thread that Eric either needs a better writer for this series or to just work on a completely different one (Holly & Doug) and let this one just end, but he won't do either since he clearly knows this decades old webcomic is still making him almost as much money as his porn does, so we're just going to get more of the same no matter how much time passes by.

And originally, EWS used to be a lot more protective of his characters.

He often threatened lawsuits against those who didn't follow his asinine rules regarding fanart. In at least one case, he actually followed through in getting someone's internet service cut-off.

Since then, once the 'net became a mainstream thing, people started drawing more explicit material regarding his characters purely for spite. Especially when it came out that HE was drawing dirty pictures of WB and Sonic characters, some of whom were underage.

There's the notable porn artist TDK that is incredibly similar to EWS older style. There's a few that look like they border on tentacle rape including a Krystal one where she's definitely forcefully getting stuffed.

This Fifi art is just way too similar to his old work imo for it not to be EWS.

Something often forgotten is that Zig Zag and the porn studio weren't part of the original pitch for Sabrina Online.

The first few years of the strip were a basic "Friends" knock-off with a slight hint of "Cathy" and "Dilbert".

It was around 1999-2000 that EWS decided the title character sitting on her duff making old computer jokes wasn't going to have mass appeal.

Sabrina was seen as EWS' ideal woman: she liked what he liked, lived where he lived, etc. Only instead of being an overweight nerd, she was a "cute" girl-next-door type.

This was long standing drama. During the early parts of sabrina online Eric went on a crusade against anyone doing rule34 of his characters, especially any of Sabrina. He then started to dabble into xxx drawing shortly there after. This mysterious artists unknown artist sprung up out of nowhere doing rule34 drawings of all the tiny room, Animaniacs characters. in the excact art style as Eric, which notably inspired by Warner bro animation. He was then doxxed to have been said unknown artist, called out for his hypocrisy, then the everyone moved on.

He doesn't do xxx pics of certain characters. But as he decided to lean into adult commissions and introducing ZZ studios into the Sabrinaverse he began making his own OCs for the sole purpose of porn. Shelia, stacy/tracey, so on.

But even then, he might have "spicy" drawings if sabrina and certain others, but never full own xxx.

But that was the hypocrisy he was bashed on. He would go irate if people rule34 his waifu, but then would be ok doing rule34 of his own works and that of others. Thus why he created an alias to release his rule34 lewds under until caught.

I don't have a problem with artists who don't want to draw suggestive or straight up pornographic art of some of their characters. It's something many artists just can't see them doing to their creations for whatever morality sake that might make them feel uneasy or just uninterested (like with Jay Naylor and his child characters in Original Life). What I don't like is when they try exhibiting that type of prohibiting onto other people drawing rule 34 of their characters at all. It's the internet. You can't stop others from drawing what you can't accept (at least not these days).

There are a variety of reasons people like to see kids get their comeuppance:

1. Because it's a good learning opportunity that everyone gets one way or another in life
2. Because the kid usually deserves it in some way (usually arrogance, and let's face it, calling your big sister to rub it in her face is prime arrogance).
3. Because the situation is usually so absurd that it's fun to watch
4. Because we can relate on some level (see point 1)
5. Because either it'll go exactly as planned, or go terribly off the rails, but end up with things seeming perfectly ordered by the end and we know that trope follows pure chaos. Calling it now: Tabs will be horribly out of her depth, will receive a phone call from Carli at some point to check in on the kids which will be bluffed through (possibly while she's being hog tied and set upon by now tribal painted hoodlums), and at the end of the evening the little ones will all be lying about the living room like perfect angels, worn out from the hours of torturing Tabitha, with her looking worse for wear and greeting Spike and Carli when they return.

Honestly would be a great idea if Carli and Spike got a story where we see their struggles with raising a pack of wolf cubs in their daily lives. They're the most underused characters in the Sabrina Online comic (next to Amy and Thomas) and they deserve more screen time together than in just jokes like this or Carli in a bar talking to Sabrina and Amy about how hard being a parent is for the entire chapter.

As discussed in the previous thread, EWS isn't a "deep" writer.

His style is largely based on the Looney Tunes. One note characters for short, funny one shots. That doesn't usually work for longer narratives. Especially a sitcom.

Heck, probably the only reason he did so much with Zig Zag was because that's Max’s canonical backstory for her.

If that wasn't there, EWS would have just made her a happy go lucky nymphomaniac without all the baggage.

Funny part of that is Max never even came up with that backstory for Zig Zag to begin with, if I recall correctly. It was something made up by the fans on some fansite dedicated to her and Max just decided to make that canon to her character even though it really has little effect on anything she does, except for maybe tricking readers into thinking she's deep and complex.

The origin of Zig Zag's backstory was from a fanfic called "Zig Zag: the Story". There, she's older and makes it clear alot of her behavior is an act she puts on for the public.

It was largely a way to make her more sympathetic when she hooked up with the author's self-insert OC.

This whole story has been poorly designed for Tabitha's well being. This plays out worse and worse for her with each comic he makes.

Between Carli throwing her under the bus and the parents not caring. I have a fic in mind where Carli took the kids for the night and just gift wrapped a babysitter for Spike.

One of the mean people was a kid named Bobby. Zig Zag fucked his mom and rubbed it into his face. Then it became a bit of a repeated joke of Bobby's mother hooking up with Zig Zag, either in commissioned pics, or pin-ups. Sometimes we get to Bobby's reaction.

No. Only exclusively in a prequel porn comic during that rampage arc and other lewd pinups featuring her. She's less of a character and more of a milf that exist to chase thrills and be drilled into.

Didn't Eric confirm that Zig convinced Helen to join the studio and become a porn star. I'm pretty sure I remember reading about that somewhere. It said that Bobby was annoyed that his friends know who is mom is and what she does, but he is glad that she is happy doing what she likes. Which seems to me like a cop-out to make what Zig did seem not that bad, and that in the end she did them both a favor. If that was Eric's goal, turn that into a situation where Zig looks good, then I can say with 100% certainty that he failed.

Also, I wonder what story arc he plans to do next. This seems like it's going to get old fast. Though if the next thing is about Zig then I have no problem waiting. I know it's unlikely, but I'm hoping for an interest story plot. Maybe a time jump. How much more is there to do with Daniel as a tech-addicted baby who can barely talk, and constantly has her nose stuck in her phone as her only character traits? Gets old fast.

the whole point of sitcoms is that they're largely not about long-term change and personal growth of the characters - they're largely about "ha ha, funny thing happen"

The thing is, this comic ACTS like it's a long running narrative with deep introspection, character development, etc.

There are plenty of times where the comic says stuff like "We're not the stereotypes the mainstream says we are!" and "Boy, you sure have changed!" etc. but then falls back on "Just kidding! We're a goofy 90s sitcom!"

EWS wants it both ways here. He wants the kinds of praise "Omaha the Cat Dancer" got back in the day. Sure it had smutty moments, but there was a plot (granted a cliched soap-opera-styled one, but still)

What an appropriate reference considering this webcomic's way to including smutty juvenile humor is through the sex workers in ZZ Studios. A bigger slap to the face in execution when Eric both wants them to be nothing but mostly unfunny sex jokes while at the same time trying to write them as "they aren't just what society demonizes sex workers to be".

You explained it better than me. The fact that the characters keep trying to have some level of introspection and rules to their world is why I can't just write it off as "it's a sitcom. Don't get invested in it". I know it likes to act like a mundane sitcom/cartoon in comic format, but it also wants to be down to Earth and humanizing in its characters. The rules are just whatever Eric wants it to be with little pattern.

so do sitcoms

but you're forgetting the key to this whole argument: the whole point of a sitcom is to drop a few broadly drawn characters into a situation and find the comedy in how well the characters can handle the situation; long-term character growth is anathema to sitcoms

sure, things can change with the broad strokes - families can welcome babies and adults can switch jobs and all that - but the characters themselves don't tend to grow or change all that much because of the need to preserve their personalities and quirks and whatnot for the purposes of comedy

hell, you can argue that the point of a sitcom (or any form of episodic storytelling, really) is to keep everyone miserable so there's always a problem to be solved or a lesson to be learned by the end of the episode - just look at how everyone hated everyone else on (ironically enough) "Everybody Loves Raymond"

you're expecting serialized long-term character-driven storytelling from a comic strip equivalent of ABC's mid-80s TGIF lineup, and you're never going to get it

Great. Now she'll have to rely on that old ass flip phone to play Snake or Tetris, unless that ends up getting destroyed as well. Come to think about it, Carli and Spike have a house phone, so there really isn't any need to have her borrow Warren's cell. Also, I'm surprised he has a cell phone considering we never see him or Endora using one to my recollection (besides that one joke with Endora using the one Sabrina gave her once). It's always using the house phone even on mundane short calls.

Talk about bad timing(!) Least ZigZag's partner had the decency to be quiet throughout the phone call, and she herself seems to have great control over her love-making (unlike in p2 of the "Curse of the Were-Colleen" comic by el-loko)...

...still, it could've been worse...

Speaking of which, when do YOU think is the worst time to receive a phone call?

a) After just getting into a bath
b) Just as you're going to sleep after getting home from abroad, and suffering from jet-lag.
c) Early in the morning (like 2AM) when you're fast asleep and you have to go downstairs in dressing gown and morning wood to answer it.
or, in ZigZag's case
d) When you're in the middle of sex and about to climax or have someone shoot their load into you?

...and all each time, you believe it to be bad news, or those annoying an persistent cold-callers or inaudible phone-salesfolk trying to enquire about your computers, phone service, lofts, or sell you medical insurance you don't need....

Zig Zag is more of a Brittany than a Karen. ZZ doesn't act entitled, nor does she have the speak to the manager Karen attitude. What she does have is a penchant for being aggressive with hecklers, easily gets physical with anyone she's believed wronged her or her friends, tries to both look and act younger than she is, and openly encourages a work environment that'd get most offices sued. So yeah, she's more of a Brittany. It's kinda in between Karen and Pre-Madonna. That said, you also have to consider ZZ's background. She's a very self made woman in her industry that dealt with terrible parents (Her father especially), owns her own studio, and is completely friendly and casual in her work environment. She also seems to know business fairly well despite not having any formal education on it.

It would be hypocritical to say you have freedom of speech, and then blanket ban or cancel someone from all important public platforms on the point of them being technically private. Freedom of speech protects you from systematic suppression, whether it's by the government or someone else.

Otherwise governments could skirt around the freedom of speech issue by having someone else do the censorship. Likewise, some other party besides the government can be suppressing speech, such as in a theocracy where the church is more powerful than the state, or in a society where powerful special interest groups are trying to de-platform their opposition by threatening the owners of publishing platforms and venues.

Was that an actual question or was that rhetorical? You were there and should already know that your wife left out the part of you two having 13 rowdy kids, something I'm starting to wonder they do intentionally to avoid babysitters from hanging up immediately. Also, it's a little nice for Carli to care about this whole "throwing your friend's kid sister under the bus" thing possibly jeopardizing what little friendship she has with Sabrina. Too bad she still values dinner and sex with her hubby over even doing the most basic of things such as calling the 'sitter to see how things were going at home.

To be fair, do we even know what age Tabitha is at this juncture? Danielle looked like she was just a head shorter than her mother so I think there's a significant time skip since last comic. I'd venture Tabitha could definitely be well into her teens and the whole "you're too young to have your own phone little lady" is just her parents being old farts

Anyone else feel like this comic is way too safe? And by that I mean less chaotic or looney compared to its strip days? So far all that's happened is Tabitha was almost jumped and one of the kids broke her tablet.

I assume she's still only 12 or 14 at the most. I think her family are still too overprotective if she was any older than that for a babysitting gig.

I don't think there was a time skip, maybe it's just the angle EWS had Danielle sitting next to Sabrina that made her look bigger. She'll probably have a middle period between her current little kid form and her future version which is probably round the same age as Tabitha is right now.

I'd say the fault this both.

Tabitha should be more careful, as you said, the fact that the cookies are on such a high shelf should tell her the kids are meant to get to them.

However, Carli not telling Tabitha anything about the kids could be potentially dangerous. What if one of the kids had a nut allergy and Tabitha had made them peanut butter and jelly sandwiches? She would not know anything was wrong until the kid goes into anaphylactic shock. At which point she would probably panic about it.

Carli's overeagerness to have a night out with Spike and willingness to "sacrifice" others for her goal, could have potentially serious consequences. But we're not meant to think of it like this. We're supposed to point and laugh at Tabitha for her overconfidence and getting in over he head. While sympathizing with Carli.

As mentioned in the previous "Sabrina" thread, EWS has a negative view of parents in general.

It's not that the parents aren't perfect.
It's that he frequently presents them as selfish, lazy, whiny, and sex-obsessed.

Like now that they have kids, they can't buy tons of expensive toys, party, drink, and screw anymore. And we're supposed to feel sorry that these people can't act like 20 year olds anymore.

Stuff like this are why "sliding timelines" can be tricky.

The first Shrek came out in 2001. At that time, Tabitha was drawn as 6-8 years old. She was the target demographic for those films and should be aware of them regardless if Endora banned it from their home.

If this strip is taking place "now" and Tabitha is 12, then she MIGHT have a pass by not growing up with the franchise.

It's like those later Simpsons seasons where Bart acts like the 90s didn't happen even though he lived through the whole decade and beyond.

Yeah, now that I think about it that is slightly creepy that future Tabitha is waiting for future Timmy's underage bone to be legal. While I'm still curious about how the characters will be in the future, I'm hoping Tabitha isn't like that. Although Danielle seems to be shaping up to be everything her future counterpart was, so maybe it's still a possibility. But I hope the level of cringe is enough to prevent that.

It'd be one thing if it was a couple years later and Sabrina or Zig Zag makes a small joke about her cradle robbing. Instead EWS has Tabitha acting like a stalker like she's got a timer counting down till she gets to ride that squirrel wolf boy.

Offers of S-O Plots Furrynomous 2023/07/10 21:16:41 No.2318581
Following what I started back here;
>>2241675
and with talk surrounding Tabitha's intelligence, I'm still working on new stories for Eric, which I'd be happy to offer him should he ever get Creator's Block.

The plots (although I have yet to come up with titles and I'm still working on writing them up) are as follows;

1. The Self-Defence Classes, leading up to a Sabrina vs ZigZag Tournament (based on episode 3 of "Velma")

2. The Camping Trip, involving Conrad & Rainflower (parodying camping episodes of "X-Men Evolution" and classic "Simpsons")

3. A Wrestle-Mania episode in which Sabrina, after accidentally K-Oing a professional wrestler whom she thought was attacking ZigZag but was actually giving pointers for ZigZag's latest production, is thrust into the ring with ZigZag tag-teaming her, and goes up against the last person she'd expect in the finals.

4. The Fixer-Upper & Railroad Chase Adventure with Helen Dish, parodying "Great St Trinian's Train Robbery". (NOTE: Several parodies of "Home Alone" traps, the "LEGO City Adventure" Crooks and "Three Stooges" running gags are used a LOT in this story.

5. 'A Woman of Letters' (parodying the "Steptoe & Son" episode 'Man of Letters') surrounding Tina and Warren working on an article for the parish magazine together, but when the rest of Double Z Studios get involved with their own contributions, Shelia's the one who spoils it for everyone - including ruining the lives and reputations of the Vicar and his wife.

6. A Halloween Special. Parodying the classic "Dr Jeckyl & Mr Hyde" story, with Endora as the doctor and ZigZag as Hyde (though in this case, instead of killing people, Hyde's making the streets safer for the less fortunate and the night-dwellers). Tina's writing the story, but Sabrina doesn't think it'll work out.

7. "ZigZag's Blunder". Based on a B Plot of "American Dad", ZigZag tells Sabrina of the time she'd made a horrific mistake whilst on her revenge spree when going after the wrong person, due to mixing up her book of names with someone else's - though this in turn gains her two new friends, who become her new writers.
NOTE: This might be considered an FAD story, though whilst there's no actual sex involved, ZigZag does do a lot of semi-torturing and leaves her 'victim' a bleeding mess...

How do any of those sound to you viewers, or even Eric himself?

I think it would be less cringy (but not less predictable) if Tabitha was inspired by Zig and decided to start working infront of the camera than lusting after Timmy. Although I doubt Eric would do that either.

I would like to see a story with all of the kids grown up though. Like individual stories that focus on each character. We got a good look at Tabitha and Danielle's characters, but we didn't even really get to see Timmy himself except from behind, and the only thing he said was his name. I'd like to know how he turns out in the future, and how everyone gets along. It seems like a better set of ideas and possibilities than what's going on with the same cast that never changes and the same boring stories with them. ZigZag in particular. At this point I can't bring myself to care about any story where she (or anyone from the studio for that matter) is or shares the focus.

You've got some good ideas in mind. I almost feel like EWS brought up Tabitha's apprehension to sex in Skunk's Day Out just to lay the foundation that it wasn't a foregone conclusion that the little skunk who's a big fan of the porn star ends up following exactly in her footsteps. Future Tabitha definitely has the figure and the personality for it, but you're probably right that Eric's going to avoid that.

The new kids though would be interesting to see. If everyone's keeping in touch seeing Danielle, Timmy and Tabitha all interact or have their own story would be nice. But more than likely there will be a future story lined up about what's going to happen with the porn studio or something like that.

This is pretty much around what I thought Eric would've at least done with Sabrina Online if he actually wanted to explore his characters more in this continuation. There's definitely not much to do with most of the adult cast as is if going back to the porn studio where nothing really happens and it's just more blatantly unfunny sex jokes is all there is to there.

Strangely enough, I do kind of want a story or two focused on Endora and Zig Zag and maybe Warren and Endora's past and relationship in this comic. Something about the most unseen and shown interactions between these character matchups feels like such a missed opportunity if a guy writing this conclusion never bothered to go into them in the original run of this series.

An idea worth exploring would be introducing Helen to the strip proper and have her meet Endora.

Think about it. Endora is from a generation that saw marriage and kids as the ultimate goal. She married someone she loved and had kids she actually cares about.

Helen, however, was from one that stressed a college degree and a career. Instead, she ended up with a husband she didn't love (and didn't love her) and a kid she didn't want.

Now both are trying to make up for lost time and indulging in different vices to accomplish that with little regard for others.

By having them talk, you'd get the backstory for Endora AND have Helen be more than EWS' version of Cartman's Mom.

That honestly sounds like it could actually work. It would at least give Endora someone else to talk to than Zig Zag of all people to really sink in that those old traditions don't exactly work out for everyone, even if Helen put herself up for a failed marriage in the first place.

It would definitely give Helen more to do than just being Eric's main milf character. Although I also see this concept being adapted as a porn story where you'd see gratuitous sexual flashbacks as she tells Endora about herself causing the old skunkette to grow more squeamish as she goes on.

Was Sabrina Online ever funny? Because I swear I try to go back and reread all of the old strips and I just barely, if not, never seem to be able to muster much of a chuckle like I use to when I was a teenager. The characters are dull and uninteresting, nobody really develops much or at all, and a majority of jokes either don't age well or are just cookie cutter pop culture references that most of the time don't even have an actual punchline. Something that still seem to plague the continuation despite the format change and more "narrative focused stories".

This really was just The Thing That Sparked a Part of the early Furry/Webcomic era.

I still would rather like a story that shows us Endora and Warren's past together. The original comic always hinted about how much of a uptight c*nt Endy's mother was to her like she is to Sabrina, yet we never actually explore that. What about Warren was something they hated about him? He wasn't even a different species from her. I've checked and it never goes into detail about it.

Also, I'd like for her to ACTUALLY develop as a character and not make very small steps before walking back on them because it wouldn't be easy to tell jokes involving those old traits like Eric does with a majority of his characters.

I agree. Let the kid go. Although I feel like if Bobby was any part of this Helen/Endora set up that didn't involve him being the usual punchline, it still wouldn't end well for him or for Helen. I'm kinda picturing a similar setting with Blitzo and Barbie in the recent episode of Helluva boss, only w/o any death or drugs. Where Helen (after talking with Endora, about their kids) finds herself desperately wanting to reconnect with her son, but he's doing everything he can to avoid her.

That's just how my mum felt as we spent 4 nights in a row playing the Christmas edition last year. She prefers board games that have a straight-forward finish.

Here's the attempt...of new stories for EWS to try out...

"Miss ZigZag goes to Washington" Parodying the B Plot of the "Murder She Wrote" Series 1 episode 'Capital Offence' and follows on from "Tina's Apartment". When the state's member of Congress falls ill, his party begin seeking a temporary rep till an official replacement can be found. And who do they choose? ZigZag herself! This leads ZigZag, Sabrina, Richard & Tina on a journey to the Capital State to sort out a bill for some new industries to be build in their state. With some unexpected discoveries made by Tina in the department store she's occupying, ZigZag manages to carry out her term without the means of "subduing" her opponents her own way - much to Sabrina's utter amazement.

Here's the last part, which precedes the previous entry.

"Tina's Apartment". Parodying a Season 7's episode of "Are You Being Served?" of 'The Apartment'. This story revolves solely around Tina who's trying to move, but when her new house is taken out by a landslide, she and her furniture are stranded! Luckily, her uncle works as a watchman in run-down department store.
With all her belongings stored on the top floor, it's become an apartment in itself, so Tina moves in. And when the city's struck by gasoline shortages, it leaves the cast and crew at Double Z marooned themselves, so they all ask to spend the night in Tina's new flat...though Sabrina hopes of a peaceful night's sleep are easier said than achieved.

Ohio is largely a Republican state.
Why in the nine realms would they appoint a LGBTQ, pro-sex, life time in the porn industry type person like Zig Zag to stand in for them?

A "state's member of congress" can be a house rep, and even Ohio has some democratic representatives. But I think in every state the demise of a house rep either leads to a special election or a new one is appointed by the governor.

It was mostly due to the fact that ZigZag is a successful actress in the adult entertainment/media industry, and many an actor has gone on to Congress, then the Senate and even further...

Why, in my Train Robbery story, the people of Hicksville KNOW ZigZag is a famous film star, dubbing her as 'Miss Glory' (as she blatantly tries to go into town for supplies, with Sabrina, incognito) yet the townsfolk had NEVER seen ANY of her films or even KNEW of what type of films she'd done...

That seems highly unlikely. How would they know she's famous without knowing what she's famous for?

This isn't the 80s or 90s anymore.
It'd be easy to look up Zig Zag's career etc. even if they don't know her actual name.

They get glamour and society magazines of course, but the whole town doesn't have internet, so they CAN'T look her up. It's like an Amish/hillbilly community where they have no use or need for computers. (Or just a town full of Endoras; completely oblivious to the true nature of things. For them, a film star is a film star, no matter what they make)

In fact, the crooks in the story don't know themselves who ZigZag really is and call her party a bunch of "hookers", "bimbos" (and in Hoss's case a "himbo") "strippers" and "harlots" (that included Sabrina and Darke who don't even look the part), Tabitha & Timmy as "wannabes following in their parents' footsteps and mistake Warren, Richard and Thomas as "Pimps", thinking THEY are in charge of the women...

...least after their first encounter with the Double Z Crew, they are of the opinion that they aren't stupid as they appear to be (and that included Shelia)....

I know the joke with Carli and Spike is that it's "unknown" how these perpetually argumentative, loud and mostly immature people could ever stay married for years, but I'm just going to say they both stayed for the sex. Like these two can end up with one of them in the hospital and raking up expensive medical costs every time they get physical all they want. If having a safer marriage meant less sex, then what's the freaking point? I mean, that's pretty much why they seem to always try to trick a babysitter to watch their horde of bratty kids.

The comic started in the 90s. But EWS updated it's base timeline somewhat every year. Not exactly great story telling. But many webcomics are guilty of doing the exact same thing. Keven and Kell being another example. At least we get to see new tech here and there, instead of having to relate to a comic that takes place two decades ago. I am curious though, what would have happened if EWS had kept Sabrina Online period to the past.Sabrina is around 31 in the comic now. She was 22 when the comic started in 1996. If the comic were period, for her it'd be 2005 right now. And instead of youtube, streaming and smartphones, we'd hear satire about TV shows of the time, Blackberry phones, satellite/cable TV, anime that trended at the time, etc.

Like it or not EWS had to keep Sabrina Online up to day with current years, or the comic likely wouldn't have been as successful as it became.

The only times he'd mention current events was to talk about Transformers media.

And the studio didn't start offering online material until 2010 and most of the staff didn't even know how email worked.

For a comic with "Online" in the title, EWS hardly ever talks about online culture beyond the 90s.

That's sort of what happens to the main villains in my 'Fixer-Upper/Train-Chase' story. They thought the Double Z Girls would be pushover bimbos, therefore easy to get around in order to retrieve the stolen loot - and boy were they WRONG.

The first attempt left the Card-Shark and the Safe-Cracker pelted with paint, plaster, DIY debris, eggs, rotten produce and water sludge.

When they came back with reinforcements, they barely escaped with their heads unbroken after getting ambushed in the engine shed.

And their final attempt left them derailed in a muddy ditch, whilst their food-wagon operatives were outsmarted and K.O'ed, and only one member escaping the authorities, and their boss left high and dry in the midst of a heart-attack after he saw the headlines in the aftermath...

OK you misunderstood me. I said EWS had to keep Sabrina Online up to date over the years. That's the name of the webcomic itself. But he intentionally kept Sabrina herself retro as the world advanced around her. And besides, Sabrina had to eventually replace her Amiga with a new PC she frankened together as an Amiga's bastard child. And though not a Windows PC, it was still up to date at that time. Also, all the computers Sabrina has to use at ZZ studios are kept up to date. She just uses her outdated PCs that she can barely keep relevant from home. Or so is said. Yet we almost never see her actually using her Amiga to do the so called professional work that she claims to do with them. The Amiga is just a hobby toy for her now. But the world around Sabrina still got more modern with each passing year.

Well, it might not be such a bad idea, if you read these synopsis I composed for future S-O stories;
>>2333447
>>2333444
>>2318581

After all in them ZZ;
* Proves her worth in the ring (twice)
* Fixes up a house, drives a steam locomotive and defeats a gang of thieves.
* Non-sexually wins over a case in Congress.
* Rescues an inheritance for one of her own cast members.
* And even helps clean up the streets of Victorian London to make it safer for the Night-Walkers.

Though through most of them she does;
* Get Sabrina involved, against her will (or gets herself involved with Sabrina's life - even when asked NOT to)
* Showed Sabrina up both camping and in the ring (again, twice)
* Accidentally let Shelia shut down the parish magazine due to not proof-testing her crossword puzzle contribution.
* Almost showed Sabrina up over how NOT to dress for a funeral (or behave at one either)
* Robbed the Victorian crooks and blaggards, by acting as a street-walker herself and even sleeping with those she'd rescued (both male and female) only to turn back into Endora in the morning, and occasionally landing her alter-ego in hot water.
* In the wrestling ring, despite passing them off as a tag-team, unknowingly hogs all the work Sabrina does in ring, including all the glory.

Least I have found a way to make viewers not to loose interest or faith in EWS's works, even if ZZ might be the main character in the stories...

There's no way to please you guys, is there?

Sabrina Online didn't have some fall from grace when ZigZag was introduced because it was never a rich storytelling experience to begin with.

Not to mention the fact that many characters dissappear and have lost focus almost entirely, while Eric can rarely seem to come up with a story or plot line that isn't about them or doesn't focus on them more heavily that anyone else.

At this point he ought to just get rid of the Sabrina Online title altogether, and just call it Zig Zag Studios since Sabrina can barely be the center of her own story anymore. The majority of the focus seem to be all about Zig Zag and her studio friends/employees, with spatterings of Sabrina, Tabitha, Daniel and RC thrown in every once in a while.

The worse part is that Eric just figured out what to put Tabitha in, even if the struggle wasn't all that great for her. If he just took the time to learn what he can do with his normal SO cast, there wouldn't need to be so much ZZ Studio related stuff, of which he somehow also wastes in this comic.

Yes, because writing actual fanfiction not tied to a canon story magically fixes the problems of a comic. Or better yet, helps you wanting to ignore both criticisms and hate comments to enjoy your basic slice-of-life sitcom webcomic.

Have you forgotten this site has a Fap Mode button? Maybe use that so you can better ignore everyone and not want to hear us "bitch about it" everytime you come in here.

it doesn't - and the sarcasm isn't necessary - but it would give you a chance to do with the characters what the lot of you keep saying Eric won't do with them

besides, all of your bitching and moaning isn't going to make Eric suddenly make his comics in a way that makes you happy

so yeah, if you don't like what he's doing with those characters, you can either ignore him and do something better or pay him a shitload of money to do something better - but whining like an entitled child isn't going to get you what you want

Damn I feel bad for Elise. She looks like the shy, non talkative type and when she speaks her mind to her own mother, she's shot down, and looks crushed because of it.

Letting your child speak to you, (no matter how much YOU think that it's unimportant in the moment), doesn't mean it's not super important to the child and can uplift their spirits and make them more outgoing and confident while they grow up.

I think he does. Characters have called out on each other for their poor behavior, but it's always in a weird "ha ha so funny and quirky" vibes. Characters like Carli, Sabrina, Zig Zag or even Endora can acknowledge their problems and say they're trying to improve as a person, but it's always hollow since Eric isn't really interested in writing an actual story with legit character growth.

I-phones are not only too expensive, they're highly overrated and over-hyped. Plus Apple devices you own auto link with each other. Hack into one, and you can get into the others. Fixing Apple products is a bitch too. There are times I've heard of very poor service, unjustified delays, and endless up-selling. Using Android is not only easier, it's safer and cheaper. I've bought three tablets for my nephews that ran Android, and they had no complaints.

Honestly, maybe Sabrina's not!future sight may have been accurate with predicting Endora would be getting Alzheimer's Disease, or at least maybe some early stages of dementia. While shocking that she got a non-consensual peck on the lips, this isn't even the first time Ziggy did this to her.

No you're pretty much right.

It's been sad to see legacy of these characters muddled around because the creator never evolved or matured and is just a stagnate reminder of a bygone era.

In real life? Certainly not. In fact, the idea of "repressed memories" circulated in psychotherapy was actually discovered to be a quite harmful phenomenon, "implanted memories". Memory is a quite malleable collection of senses strung together by chemical synapses, and if you repeatedly interrogate certain responses, you can quite easily influence them to change. Eyewitness testimony for example is extremely unreliable in court, because repeated police interrogation has shown to change witnesses' perception of events to match what they were told during the interrogation. Questions such as "what color was the stoplight" could convince people over time that there WAS a stoplight at a street with only stop signs. This is why "repressed memory psychotherapy" is a huge sham, basically you're adding up all the weird idiosyncrasies of a person's home life and convincing them it was actually much worse than they remember.

You know what might be interesting if we're going to hear about Zig Zag's psychology again?

Instead of her dad, how about her mom? According to MBR's backstory, her mom was just as much of an abusive asshole as her husband, even condoning it on occasion with the reason of "as least he's not beating/raping me this time".

That might explain why Zig Zag hangs out with someone like Endora.

Furrynomous 2024/07/05 11:22:41 No.2388089
You know, I decided to look back at that old story of Zig Zag that everyone loves to parade around when you criticize Eric's portrayal of her in this comic and to say that it's a laughable excuse of character growth is an understatement. The whole therapy thing she was doing with Dr. Black only amounted to him stating brass and obvious facts and problems with Zig Zag, things her character should've taken and improved on in the comic over these years, yet it's only there to talk about how cool and strong she was for enduring trauma and becoming a sex worker as a way to "control her faith" and shit. We are never going to see any further development or showcase of her Zig's father, grandparents or siblings, so I doubt her mother will have any relevancy since Eric never really cared all that much for the backstory besides the fact she was made one by old fans.

Also, the trend of Eric having his characters talk about how "strong they've become" or how much they've "grown since the start" instead of showing that growth consistently or at all really did start in the original run. His writing really hasn't changed all that much between the transitions and "scale".

Furrynomous 2024/07/07 04:02:46 No.2388363
You know, for a therapist you'd think Black would also bring up Zig Zag's very obvious narcissism too. Her obsession with getting a quick fix and taking advantage of her friends, the people she keeps bribing with her fame and body, her then selfish use of those she calls her "friends" whenever she's looking for said quick fix, her inability to reflect on her poor behavior without her actions negatively impacting her in a way she doesn't like (and even then it feels like there's some form of self-pity whenever these problems happen), and her immediate defense to past it all off as "having fun". All of these, and possibly more that I missed, are things I'm annoyed that this therapist never really brings up, or doesn't bring it up in any hard way like he should. Not helping his case when he's also extremely weak-willed enough to once again have sex with the person he knows is taking advantage of him, although a character in this universe saying no to Zig Zag's sexual advances seems to be a regular occurrence in Eric's writing.

The whole fiction argument stops working at that point and if someone like Eric isn't going to actually present a serious narrative because these are "comic book characters" again then he really needs to stop trying to. He's failed to actually develop these characters in any natural way that didn't require saying they've developed while showing so little.

I was sold on the idea of this story being "different" like what Eric said, but so far very little has shown for that besides Endora's reaction to being snogged on and Warren not taking Zig's shallow apology for not respecting his wife's boundaries.

Also, what happened to that side story with Tina? I think she had something to do with moving out due to her landlord selling the property she lived in underneath her.

Welp, aside from banging her former therapist, she is actively seeking to better herself, in her own way. This could be hopefully a redemptionarc for her, which I really do hope Schwartz has planned.
Other than that I also hope she gets knocked up by the former therapist at some point. They seem to compliment eachother pretty good, even looking past Zig beseeching his advices.

Furrynomous 2024/07/08 15:16:13 No.2388816
I don't know. It seems like she's not seeking redemption as much as vindication. She wants everyone to accept what she did wasn't a big deal.

Notice in the original strip and in the new one, she asks her therapist if "it was worth it". As if getting someone to break whatever ethics or morals they have to screw her justifies her actions.

You know, at least with Simpsons, before whichever season started its downhill slide, the writers at least tried coming up with enough outlandish plots to keep the cast in more interesting stories and events. Eric could try getting more out of his comfort zone so these storylines wouldn't become so stale on the get go and maybe it could get people in here to stop complaining about the same crap over and over again.

He did do that. Once with Tabitha, and that was the last chapter before this. And that was just a fluke as far as I'm concerned as we went back to this plot immediately.

I mean, I know the babysitting story with Tabitha was always meant to be a short one while the one with Zig Zag was the real story Eric wanted to focus on since the beginning, but you have to admit this was just a blue moon chance.

The last two panels sound like the beginning of the camping trip story I had penned to EWS.

At the start, ZigZag is in a slump as her cast and crew don't seem to have enough raw passion in their work, so Rainflower (Richard's hippy mother) invites her and her cast and crew onto her camping trip with her family and in-laws - all behind Sabrina's back, mind.

The story ends with ZigZag and her team invigorated - except for Darke who ended up getting mistaken for a Bigfoot by other campers and captured by rangers and scientists - and Sabrina completely the worst off she's ever been...especially as she finds out both her parents and her parent-in-laws ditched the lot of them, following Endora having a yoga-related accident, and are lapping it up in the luxury of ZigZag's RV, whilst the rest were roughing it...

It started with Zig Zag kissing Endora while drunk and dealing with the fallout from that.

Then there was a subplot about Tina needing to find a new apartment/home.

Then it was Zig Zag visits her shrink. Then it was a proposed "self-discovery" road trip for her and Tina. And now we're in what might be an extended flashback.

That's assuming Tina was good with her finances back then. She may have been the type to air responsibility to others, but live in the moment in her personal life. Or she was simply comfortable where she lived because she was a single woman. Zig Zag took initiative as a porn star, and bought her own studio with the money she raked in. Tina was her best friend, so she brought her in as a manager. The rest of the people Zig seemed to personally scout. Like it or not, Zig Zag had good business sense. Her style was just dated. Which is why she brought in Sabrina. ....Thinking of that just gave me a funny thought to if EWS were to ever release animated porn movie of Zig Zag's early career, he might sell it on VHS.

Tina was probably the reason the studio lasted as long as it did given we've seen Zig Zag willing to completely shrug off work and responsibility to indulge in her various vices, whether paling around with Sabrina, trolling for booty, or hunting down haters.

Her FAD bio establishes that she's no stranger to clerical work and film making to an extant too.

In any case, if he did age the characters even significantly, Tina would be a retiree and Zig would be in her 40s or 50s.

If Sabrina's in her 30s, I count 34, that would mean Zig would probably be in her later 30s (37), and Tina would definitely be in her mid-50s (55) at most. Maybe there's an advantage making a cougar like her doing horny VTuber chats beneficial now that people won't have to look at her old grandmother body type or whatever grosses people out due to such an age gap.

Gotta realize that the point of this flashback is to explain why Zig Zag, the world-famous millionaire porn star, is operating out of Ohio instead of L.A. or some other part of Southern California.

According to the much-ballyhooed backstory, Cali's porn scene was too corrupt and misogynistic for her liking. But Columbus, Ohio? Way more open and accepting for her needs. Plus, she wanted to be closer to her siblings. Instead of, say, take THEM as far away from their parents as legally possible.

All this talk about how the real world ways a writer could've portrayed a dumb kid wanting to run away from their shitty home and find a job rather than calling any authority figure is such pointless detailing to constantly criticize when it originally came from some dumb horny fan story back in the 90s. I swear, this is why the comic fits much better as a comic strip than a graphic novel with supposed "story arcs".

Is this comic still supposed to be PG-13?

Because it feels like EWS should up the rating if he's going to have all the partial nudity and implied sex.

What will happen when Zig Zag shoots her first movie? That blocking scene from Austin Powers?

She does keep going on and on about how close they were, and how she was more like a mother than they’re actual mother. Yet I’m willing to bet that she hasn’t called, text, emailed, or visited any of them since the court case.

The artist LordFoxhole created an alternate backstory where a couple of neighbors took Zig Zag in as a kid and sort of raised her while her parents were off getting loaded, high, etc.

And they happened to look like Sabrina and Endora only with MASSIVE breasts. This was to explain why Adult Zig Zag lusts after Sabrina and hangs out with Endora.

Unfortunately, I doubt that would happen.

As we've discussed:

1. EWS kinda sucks at drama and character interaction. He's writing like this is a daily strip, which means there's always got to be a punchline. Doesn't matter if it fits or not. All his characters are baseline stereotypes that would fit a 5-10 cartoon short.

2. EWS will NEVER depict Zig Zag as wrong. No matter what she does, it'll always be someone else's fault, and they'll need to get on board with her worldview or apologize for not understanding it.

in this thread, it kind of is that, because a good chunk of the complaints here are "but he's not drawing what I want to see"

I'm not going to disagree with the bulk of the actual criticisms of his writing - especially that bit about how he's writing pages as if they're weekly comic strips, that shit is totally on-point - but when the "criticism" boils down to "he should be drawing [x] instead of [y]", it's not criticism, it's a demand borne of entitlement

yes, EWS is making these comics his way - so if you don't like it, minimize the thread and get on with your life instead of bitching about how he's not drawing the comics to suit your specific personal tastes; hatereading doesn't get you anything but further entrenched into anger and hatred and other negative emotions that aren't going to serve you in any way

if you want a better Zig Zag story, you're going to have to write it yourself, because EWS clearly isn't going to write one based on your demands on what a good Zig Zag story should be - that's reality, and nothing short of paying EWS off with a dumptruck full of money is going to change that reality

if you want better, either find better or do better; stop begging and praying and powerlessly demanding better from someone who either isn't listening or doesn't want to listen to you being a bitch

Welcome to U18chan. You're either complaining about a shit artist's work being leaked or being unsatisfied by what you get here.

that's my whole point: you're so enamored with your ability to complain about things you don't like that you do that instead of clicking the "Hide Thread" button, finding something you actually like to look at, and singing its praises

like I said earlier, it's fine to critique EWS's writing, because God knows the "every page has to end on a gag because that's how newspaper comics do it" schtick deserves that - but once you've talked about the problem, what good do you accomplish by continuing to complain about something you literally cannot control in any way?

complaining may be fun to you, but consider that continually and endlessly complaining about something you obviously hate is FUCKING WITH YOUR HEAD in ways you either can't or won't admit to yourself - and I used to be someone who tore into every last bit of Jay Naylor's work with the same gusto that a lot of the complainers in this thread are showing, so I know from experience that consuming media from a place of hate and complaining about that media for many times longer than it took me to consume it really does mess your head up

all I'm saying is, instead of complaining about something beyond your control as if those complaints will somehow magically change EWS's writing style or whatever, you could try hiding the thread and finding another activity to do - like writing your own ZZ story or drawing ZZ getting pounded or picking up Mongolian basket weaving

Never mind. I guess it really is just a Zig Zag & Tina roadtrip after all.

Wouldn't it have just been easier to close the place while the two are gone? I think Zig's really underestimating just how much she and Tina actually run this business if she's trying to dump the responsibilities again on a techy Amiga skunk girl like Sabrina.

Let's be honest. Endora having any exploration of her problems or how she has to deal with them never was something Eric cared to go into. She's such a background element that even when she's the actual catalyst for Zig Zag to go on a self-discovery road trip was just an excuse for the writer to write a story solely around his skunk waifu again. We all knew it was going to be the case one way or another when your storyline is titled "Stripes and Links".

Those last two panels are the reverse of what took place in my 'fixer-upper' story;
ZigZag and the Team are out in Hicksville to mend the property Helen's come into possession of, ZigZag goes incognito when picking up supplies in town, and although she DOESN'T flirt with anybody there, she gets recognised...but not as the Adult Film star she is. She gets mistaken for Miss Glory instead.

(Sadly it was the unexpected arrival of the local newspaper reporter who popped over to get the story of why 'Miss Glory' had returned and was fixing up the old station house, that lead to the robbers attempts to invade the property, which in turn lead to the discover of the old locomotive and the stashed cash in the engine shed on the property)...

Though, I also have a similar story in which either ZigZag or Tine are out and about in another community that doesn't know them, they have car trouble and, whilst asking for help, are mistakenly taken up as a nanny answering an advertisement...

you wanna know which one word in that sentence leaps out and screams "I enjoy the smell of my own farts"?

listen, dude, Eric's been writing SO since the mid-1990s, and he isn't showing any signs of slowing down - if he needed anyone's help in coming up with new ideas for SO stories, he's probably got a number of trusted friends he can turn to well before he would ever have to be so desperate as to turn to you and your ideas

you're writing fanfics that he will never illustrate - and probably won't ever read, given that you could conceivably sue him for copyright infringement if he yoinked one of your ideas for his own use - so the sooner you come to terms with the fact that you're writing fanfic that's probably even worse than the derivative sitcom bullshit Eric comes up with, the sooner you can get your ego in check and stop believing you're a five-course meal when you're most likely the same kind of hot shit on a cold plate as the rest of us meatbags

I don't mind fan-fiction. I used to read a lot of it back in the day. But never act like it's there for the original creator or artist to use. Because odds are slim to none. If you want to see it made, draw it yourself, or pay someone to draw it for you.

Oh i couldn't remember how or why she got that. But yeah it's the story where Zig gets it in her head that doing tastefully suggestive photos with a little kid and putting them up on the net would have been a reasonable idea. Doesn't go through with it but still, she was going to go full steam ahead until Sabrina pointed out the obvious.

Still can't believe EWS did this art for/related to that chapter though.

she kind-of is, tho'

not a child predator, obviously, but a sexual predator who sees other adults as sexual conquests - consider how Zig Zag seduced Helen Dish only minutes after meeting her, used sex to make her shrink break his ethics, flirted with the studio's hairdresser (and later fucked her without even waiting for permission), and tried getting physical with an obviously uncomfortable Sabrina

in the world of Sabrina Online, Zig Zag is a low-key sexual predator who uses her fame/infamy as a porn star to excuse away her predatory urges - anyone who tells you otherwise hasn't been paying attention to her behavior

I actually was referring to her being a child predator.

Maybe EWS wasn't doing it on purpose, but seriously, look at how he draws her with Tabitha in those last few pics.

In the "studio photo", she's giving the viewer "come and get us" looks.

On that cover, she looks like she's going to go after Tabitha herself and not stop. And Tabitha looks like she's not comfortable with this at all.

I know she's supposed to be this "Pepe le Pew/Minerva Mink" type character, but Christ, what was EWS thinking when he drew these?

I've already said it before that readers wouldn't be able to pick up on this behavior of Zig's unless the tone was decidedly non-humorous. Every other thing you mentioned was portrayed in porn stories and/or the normal comedic tone of the series, so only a minority will take this characteristic of Zig's seriously. And if they do, Eric will twist the story around her to make you feel bad for her.

>>2403200
I just took that as dumb edgy humor that Eric especially thought was funny until it stopped being it when he grew more aware of THAT side of the fandom over Tabitha and Zig Zag's friendship.

there's a level of sympathy one can feel for someone whose life got so fucked up that they act like Zig Zag and think sex is the answer to every question and the solution to every problem - but at some point, acting like that is less "uncontrollable impulse" and more "knowing decision to be an asshole", and Zig Zag would definitely be in that realm by now

and yeah, I get that Zig Zag's hypersexuality is both a running gag and a primary draw to her art/character - but in the Sabrina Online canon, she tried to sexually assault Sabrina and got decked for it, so excusing her behavior as "ha ha funny sex joke" or whatever is ridiculous

and I'm not here to say "you can't enjoy ZZ art any more" or any dumb bullshit like that - I still fap to porn art of her, for fuck's sake - but if we're gonna go in on the writing of SO, we can at least be honest about Zig Zag's writing and characterization instead of ignoring or whitewashing it

Technically, Helen wasn't subdued. She kissed first. ZZ just went along with it, and fanned the flame.
Helen is a lot like Stolas from Helluva Boss now that I think about it. Got stuck in a loveless marriage, desperate for sex, gets it with a complete stranger w/o hesitation, makes a deal (job offer in her case) with said stranger that ends in sex, and completely oblivious to her kid's wellbeing.

You know, maybe it's best to not have to force Endora into talking about this right now. It's only been like two days ago that Zig macked on her against any better judgement and she's clearly not comfortable speaking about the subject currently.

As happy I am seeing Danielle show a face that isn't moody and disinterest, is this what kids do these days? Show off and compare phone apps they've downloaded? Really pushing that expansive knowledge with the kids these days, Eric.

Well, if you go with the idea that Endora is still a Boomer, it kinda makes sense she'd have issues with homosexuality.

Plus, it's been implied her parents were even more conservative than her if Warren wasn't "pure" skunk enough to marry their daughter. So they probably drilled some "gays are evil, diseased-riddled scum" into her head.

At this point, I just go off on the implication that Endora's relationship with her parents was so bad that she's cut off all contact from them. Why else have we never seen the two make an appearance to show us the contrast? It's probably why she wouldn't be able to handle the idea of Sabrina doing the same to her.

I'd say it's more likely Endora's parents were simply no longer alive by the time the webcomic started. Endora's father was possibly in Vietnam, and I had lots of family members that died middle aged. Either way, at this pont Sabrina's grandparents (Both maternal and paternal) have gone so long without ever being mentioned apart from page mentioning Endora's mother, that there's no point in introducing them now. Unless EWS decides to do a time travel or young Endora arc. Or maybe Sabrina searching her family tree.

Gotta remember that Endora and Warren were already in their 50s when the strip started back in 1996. So THEY would have been the ones to deal with 'Nam etc. Heck, originally Conrad said R.C. was conceived during Watergate/Nixon's resignation.

That's the rub with sliding timelines. If Endora is in her 50s/60s NOW, she would have been the one to have grown up in the post-70s culture, with the rise of tech and LGBTQ awareness, not Sabrina.

I figured they were in their mid 40s when the comic started, because in the beginning Tabitha was 2, and Endora had one more baby before menopause. Logic would denote that her age at the beginning of the comic may have been around 45.

Well, when you look at it, ZigZag broke both the mind of her youngest daughter and now she's done it again to the mother.

But all that Sabrina needs now is for Sabrina to walk in on a scene like this; https://www.furaffinity.net/view/1449748/ - or find both her boss and mum in bed together, like at the end of episode 4 of the second season of "Velma"...and then ZigZag's broken all three skunkettes' brains(!)

You're still doing it man. And you're badly twisting words. If you've got a hate boner for anime, just say it. But I really don't give a fuck if you do. Gundam isn't just something you can label as a children's series. Considering they have multiple full sized (18 meters) Gundam statues in Japan with moving parts, basically a whole street dedicated to it, and many many series released over the course of 40 years, I'd say it's world-wide popularity easily exceeds any idiotic and antagonistic thing you'd have to say about it.

And secondly, you're acting like I'm seeking EWS's approval like a lost puppy. I'm not. I literally never said anything like that. I'm curious what he'd think. But a curiosity is all it is. I'm not going out of my way to contact him about it. You literally started this mess over absolutely nothing because you were looking for someone to pick on. Which makes you the most childish person here. Go back to the schoolyard and look for someone else more on your mental level to mess with.

You can somewhat discern Tabitha's age by the fact she's two years older than Timmy. She was two when he was born. So 16 when she was 18 in Sabrina's future vision. Then there's when Sabrina turned 30. Which we can assume Tabitha was 10 years old at, because Sabrina was 20 when Tabitha was born. This should put her current age in the comic as roughly 11.

OK, going to see her siblings (which is about time) for closure or insight I can understand. But going to see her parents, which last I checked included a mother that neglected all her kids, and a father that beat her and somewhat molested her? I mean, I'm all for forgiveness and/or conquering your demons, but I don't think her parents are one of those things.

I thought Zig's parents were in jail and lost custody of their kids and placed them into the care of their grandparents after Zig sued them. Is Eric just suggesting her parents, mainly her father, calmed down enough to raise anyone in their family again?

Zig Zag isn't in her 40s. When she and Sabrina met, Sabrina was 22, and ZZ was 27-28. Sabrina's last birthday in the comic was when she turned 30. From the amount of time that's gone on since, I'd say Sabrina is probably currently 31. Making ZZ around 36-37. Tina is pushing 50 since she was 41 at the beginning of the comic, as I remember her Fur After Dark profile saying.

I can only imagine how much that guy was kicking himself after Zig Zag went on to open her own studio and make vmore money than him. Hell, she might have even driven him out of business.

The porn industry back in the day was kinda lazy. They repeated a lot of the same stuff. And a lot of the people they hired weren't the best looking. Good looking actors costed more money. I remember in a documentary, one guy who was involved in porn back in the day said it started with a few guys saying "Hey. Let's hire a few ugly people and get them to have sex with each other". Once VCRs were out, it opened up a whole new window for them past theators. But over time a lot of them got stuck in their ways and refused to innovate. Old porn studios were like the Henry Ford example. Build and produce one great thing, and then try to keep it the same for decades. And then once the internet really got going, they had to scramble with the loss in sales.

A flashback like this isn't really what I call a subplot. Feels like these are only here to punctuate some kind of character building or establishing why Zig and Tina are so close to the point of being far more than just business partners/friends with benefits.

That is if it actually developed them at all to begin with since the two pretty much didn't come in not as strong as they were before, so these flashbacks feel more like padding than anything important. Not really knowing anything new besides more men and the industry holding Zig Zag back on reaching her full potential.

You need to remember this is a flashback. So probably that's early 90's. Also considering their old boss considered the same cliche scenarios, and that Tina was "too old" to be an actress... in her early 30's (like MILF isn't a big tag in a lot of porn sites) their new studio probably does more variety;

Specially considering (although not sure if that's canon) they kinda have a sentient tentacle monster in their staff, something I feel many other studios don't have. And some people are really into tentacles, so you already have a step up the others right there.

What's interesting is that along with the "origins of ZZ Studios", we're also starting to see the narcistic jerk-ass Zig Zag start to form here.

There's no indication she's being exploited or mistreated by the place she's currently working for. She admits to making good money and is now pretty famous (for a porn actor). But because she's bored and one guy isn't catering to her whims, she wants to break off and start her own business.

Tina has more of a reason to be upset and want to branch off than Zig Zag does.

even people who fuck for a living can feel creatively unfulfilled

ZZ probably has ideas for porn films that go beyond the generic bullshit her boss shoots, but because she's young (likely in her early twenties during this specific flashback) and she's just a piece of fuckmeat to him, she can't get him to listen

in her position, I'd probably feel like taking the same risk she did, especially if ZZ got Tina to help handle the parts of the business that ZZ doesn't particularly care for handling

that besides: no one in their twenties *isn't* kind of an asshole - if ZZ didn't grow out of that phase, that's a problem, but at her age and in her position, being a little narcissistic and self-centered is at least understandable

It was all but stated that Zig Zag was also turning tricks in the backroom of the strip club she was working for. So, there's that.

What I meant was that Zig Zag's griping about her job comes off as shallow and whiny because:

1.) We don't know how long she's been working here. She could be the newest hire so she's fresh to the industry and how it works.

2.) We don't know anything about her boss aside from this one scene. He may be a creep or maybe her ideas ARE too expensive. Porn studios aren't exactly the place to go to get "Avatar" made.

3.) We don't know anything about her co-workers aside from Tina. Maybe THEY'RE drained too. Maybe they're jerks. Or junkies. Or Zig Zag is starting to become a prima donna.

There needs to be a storyline where Sabrina struggles to find any reason why she should continue working in a porn studio as its tech consultant for the rest of her life. I'm still not convinced she's fully comfortable with the people she's works around or how it doesn't impact her image when you have 'porn studio' in your resume. There'd usually some self-consciousness to the whole thing especially if you were raised with some conservative ideals regardless if she's more tolerant compared to her mother.

Unfortunately, Sabrina might not have a ton of options at this point. Her insistence on using outdated tech would have gotten her blackballed years ago. Her skills, while impressive in the 90s, are fairly basic by today's standards or even moot with "Do-it-yourself" software and apps everywhere. And even then she has to call in her husband to make things like the VR desktop work.

Let's see. There's ZZ's self-discovery trip w/Tina, and there's Aurora's traumatization recovery, than there's the ZZ's flashback, and now there's Sabrina juggling between her new job as temp CEO, and helping her mom. So, 4 so far.

This might be the first time we get to SEE how ZZ Studios actually works, instead of all this inferred/implied/suggested stuff people keep mentioning.

Honestly, I'm starting to think EWS is using this arc to burn through ideas he had during the original run he never got around to.

We have Zig Zag going to (possibly) visit her family.
We get the origins of the studio itself.

And Sabrina will finally get some meaningful one-on-one time with her co-workers BESIDES Zig Zag for a change.

Well, I can one of these happening, now we've met ZigZag's siblings for the first time;

1. ZigZag gives them controlling stock of Double Z Studios, whilst keeping the majority of shares for herself (though making sure their parents don't see a single penny of that stock)

2. Giving her siblings employment by putting them on managerial & administration teams for Double Z, thus keeping the studios in the family she'd both had and built up. (Similar to the B*tchkitten Sisters of "House of L.S.D" where they even allowed their younger sister to be their receptionist, and even the head of their financial department is the male doppelganger of said sister)

3. Will we ever see the only childhood friend who ever showed ZigZag family love and affection, Sandra Mollinari appear in this comic, or was she just a collab from Lord_Foxhole, and therefore isn't canon to the "S-O" series in any way, shape or form...?

Anybody else see these happening?

In ZigZag's original backstory her brother never really knew her dad was raping her and when she got the two of them taken away from him he kept in touch with his dad who insisted he was innocent, that Zig made the whole thing up and turned her sister against him and broke up the family.

Sorry. But that just makes her relationship with Sabrina and Endora even more weird, now knowing she wants to f@#$ a girl that's basically a rule36 of her brother, and tongued a woman/friend that might as well be a younger, easy-going version of her grandmother.

The problem with this whole story is really just its direction. It starts off on an interesting note, Endora becoming a target to one of Zig Zag's unwarranted advances, and then it pivots to Zig having to go visit her family again and it just drops in quality from there. I know it should've been obvious what the real focus was going to be with a title like "Stripes and Links", but why couldn't this have just been "Zig gets a letter from her grandparents or her sister to come and visit after figuring out where she lives" and worked itself from there? It's like Eric thought of the hook, thought of Zig Zig's old backstory fanfic, and then just smashed them together hoping it will work better than his past storylines.

Remember that this comic is now largely funded via Patreon.

EWS has stated that his working on Sabrina Online post-2016 would be based on a "when he's motivated" schedule. I.e. the more subscribers he has, the more "motivated" he'll be to uploaded pages.

This arc has been going on for almost a full year now and seems largely made of fluff and subplots meant to drag it out as long as possible.

Never understood the whole adults being told to be quiet by an elder family member and obeying it. They're not children anymore and allowed to voice their opinions, no matter how conflicting it is. Guess it's probably part of respect your elders and they are part of the family. But still, once a person is an adult such things should have no bearing on an individual's choices or words.

Some people have a hard letting go of the authority of parenthood.

I'm pushing forty and my uncle still expects me to wait on him hand and foot at gatherings or hang out with him because "he said so". And he gets super-pissed when I tell him I already made plans with my wife and kid.

Overall, I kind of like that Zig Zag has been getting called out a lot in this arc. Granted she's immediately backed up by someone else, but hey, better than the constant ass-kissing she got before.

She's already got the grandparents and his sister on her side. Now, does the brother know of the whole molestation thing?

Hey, dudes. Sorry to throw the subject off a bit, but I could use some suggestions.

He finds love in a scalie chick (I’ve noticed EWS doesn’t do a lot/if not at all of those), and I’m trying to figure out what unique type of scalie to make her.

While I'm not expecting a complete, permanent 180 for Zig Zag, it's just simply nice to have other characters push back at her and not be villainized for it like in previous storylines.

We've had Sabrina, Warren, the therapist, her boss in the flashback, and now her brother all criticizing her at various levels.

It's like that episode of "Family Guy" where Meg calls out Peter, Lois, and Chris for their hypocrisy and bad behavior. Sure, by the end of the episode, the status quo is restored, but the moment was refreshing to see.

Replace 'punching bag' with 'fleshlight' and yeah, that's pretty much it. Imagine living in a house where you know your dad's raping your sister, you can't do anything about it, then she runs away and you... hate her for it?

While it's clear Brandon is SUPPOSED to be the bad guy here, like most of EWS' "evil" characters, it's hard not to at least partially sympathize with him.

Consider, how old was he when Zig Zag split? If he was say, at least 12 years old, he may have felt betrayed because his big sister, who promised to protect him and their other sister from their parents, abandoned him with vague promises to return someday. She also never really came back. Just pulled some strings to have their grandparents take care of him and sent sums of money on a regular bias.

That doesn't exactly scream "close, loving relationship".

Again, I'm not saying Brandon OR Zig Zag is 100% right. Just pointing out how EWS fumbled the ball in writing this relationship.

There are plenty of current series that follow this trope. I mean this abandonment issue with ZZ and her brother sounds a lot like Stolas and Octavia. The series wants us to feel sorry for them for living through abusive relationships. But in the end, you feel more sorry for the kid who has to deal with the outcome of they’re BS.

This is the storyline Eric said would be "different" from previous stories, yet the only "different" thing about it was that Warren wasn't going to take an empty apology. I seriously question what the point of including that B-story with Sabrina trying to talk to her own mother was since this is the plot Eric couldn't even put the right amount of effort in despite its priority. I'd say Zig Zag should've seeked a therapist instead of a family reunion, but we all already know how what she did back there!

Oh right.

It's still a really weak connection between her sudden feelings of not bouncing back from a faux pas like smooching her employee's still married mother compared to the employee herself just because it's linked the "suppressed memories" of her childhood. Although, considering how Endora is a mouther/the parental authority it lead me to assume Zig would have to get into contact with her estranged mother since her backstory barely touched up on her compared to her father.

Okay forget the poor attempt at writing actual emotional weight in a serious story moment. How come Eric hasn't brushed up on his comedy chops? This guy's humor just doesn't hit at all anymore. It's like the guy's punchlines miss the hook beforehand, and it's been like this since the latter half of the late 2000s.

Didn't he also say that Zig lacks self-control and the ability to think her actions through? I'm so sick of this series and everyone who reads it thinking her problems are so deep when it's not.

She was raped and abused by her father and neglected by her mother.

She moved out, failed to become a Hollywood actor, so wound up becoming a stripper and underaged sex worker.

She met a lynx and started a business in adult entertainment (pornography).

She got her siblings out through custody and had her parents arrested.

The End.

Basic.

That would've made a better story. Perhaps on the night out Zig tries to use her looks to her advantage only to find guys who aren't interested in her. Maybe even commenting on her age.

Thus begets the self-discovery journey for Zig as she tries to work out who she is beyond being an object of desire. Tina can come along like she's done here, as she helps her friend work through this "getting older" bit.

Would be more interesting than what's happening now. And could help expand Zig's character.

If there's one thing I hate more than a contrived emotional resolution is "consensual" gaslighting. Zig Zag's temper is way worse than Brandon's little outburst. I mean, even that same therapist who told her to meet up with her family said in the past that her anger problems and constant need to force herself onto others, like Sabrina and now Endora, was the result of leftover abuse from the hands of her father.

Speaking of which, they're all really just going to ignore what was said in the previous page about what caused Zig Zag to finally visit them, huh? We're just expected to treat it like a joke despite it being the main conflict of the whole story?

This whole page is the worse thing Eric has ever written in this entire comic.

I think this might be the first time I've seen a story centered on familial drama and abuse where everything doesn't work. The conflict is resolved, or in this case "mended", way too fast and way too easily. No one who has that much pent up aggression and issues over being abandoned by their eldest sibling while not knowing the extent of the abuse said older sibling was put under while agreeing and knowing their parent/guardian was a monster, yet come out to still being self-centered about their own issues in the end would ever turn over and becoming forgiving about their terrible attitude causing a stir.

I know this is a fictional comic in a cartoon world, but if you're going to write a grounded story about abuse, trauma and estranged family relations, than you should actually commit to it fully instead of just writing excuses for the conflicting characters to quickly, yet supposedly not completely, resolve everything.

Like I've said before. If he didn't want to do drama don't bother doing it at all. Could've at least innovated his sitcom side and get more experimental with his cast. Mix them up with each other and put them in different scenarios so it doesn't feel stale. His last storyline at least tried that with Tabitha getting the first center role in the comic that wasn't being annoying sibling/Zig Zag glazer.

Man. These take me back. I'm starting to think the only reason we hate (or are the most critical at least) the way Sabrina Online became these days is because Eric hit a point back then where he ran out of things to write his characters in around 2010 and just never recovered since then. These old comics somehow always took me back to the days before social media sites became the new gallery sites due to people being more obsessed with visibility now than before and making their hobbies their main jobs than just getting their creativity out to the world and being satisfied with that instead. A time where a modestly attractive skunk girl who obsessed with an old out-of-date operating system and transforming toys was considered quirky and revolutionary and not a sign of a 20-30 something woman being so far out of date that it became embarrassing and stale.

Even after reading her ref in one of the old Sabrina Online books, this statement Sabrina made about Tabitha isn't accurate. The only thing that's accurate is the fact Tabitha is lazy and entitled which is in reference to how much Warren and Endora spoiled her due to the both of them being too old to be as strict with her as they were with Sabrina at Tabi's age. This is also why she was often dumped onto Sabrina before she stopped taking Endora's calls altogether.

The compilation releases have already been archived extensively but not the UP series, although they are mostly the same, the UP books do have bonus text and art which would otherwise be lost to time (see Sabrina at see-CAD in volume 5).

My efforts focus more on archiving entire collections of officially released comics rather than compiling strips, see below:

It's almost ironic the way "Sabrina Online" is/was compared to "The Simpsons".

Like others have said, most of the push-back to the recent storylines seems to come from the fact that the strip used to be considered great. Now so much of this just feels tired and drawn out.

You'd think with more pages and more panels, EWS would take advantage and really flesh out his characters.

Instead, he seems determined to keep the status quo even though it makes the strip increasing dated and behind the times.

The porn industry has changed. The internet has changed. Social attitudes have changed. Yet the writer acts like it's still the early 00s at best.

Honestly, I get it. It's your classic twist in a sitcom where the audiences gasp or laugh at the revelation to the confliction right around the middle or last 10 minutes of the episode. It's too bad it's partially ruined because of the semi-serious story about Zig Zag confronting her past issues and trying to improve as a person again, of which would most definitely just get walked back anyway.

remember Endora is like your stereotypical sitcom "boomer" character (she was somewhat 'racist' with Sabrina's boyfriend not being a skunk) so her being embarassed about it kinda fits her stereotype;

"Oh but then why she's fine with ZZ being a porn star and is even friends with her?" don't ask me, ask why Eric is so inconscistent with his own character personalities lots of times.

Feels like EWS has gotten really lazy with scene composition anymore. This has to be the umpteenth time he's used the "two/three characters sit at a table and navel gaze" set up.

This might also be contributing to the feeling of repetitiveness and dullness in this comic anymore.

At this point, the rest of the family really shouldn't be all that surprised by this anymore. This is the same conservative woman who stayed being friends with the porn celebrity because they were eccentric, are the most fun she's had in years and Zig Zag's probably the only friend she has since Eric never really established if Endora has an actual friend group the same way he never established Tabitha's social life outside of her family and her sister's friends.

>>2454747
Because prude + sexual provocative character = funny comedy. Eric has loved this dynamic back in the 90s and he won't ever stop doing it even if it harms the "serious" parts of his stories.

>>2454843

It's not using sitcom as an excuse for bad writing. Eric literally uses a lot of tropes for his characters, and that's part of why his writing is so bad at various points, it clashes massively when you have something like "Oh ZZ SA'd Endora and is going on a trip to find herself, but wait Endora was quiet only because she was embarassed to admit she liked it hohoho so funny";

That's why it's bad: he doesn't know how to not put two clashing tones together, and so we have sitcom tropes tossed alongside more serious stuff all messy.

I don't think it's as easy as that.

The comic has TRIED to be more than just punchlines and zany antics on several occasions.

There are several crumbs of deeper themes besides just Zig Zag's "Lifetime Movie of the Week" backstory.

Stuff like Amy and Thomas' relationship at the beginning.
Zig Zag's speech about how porn actors are "misunderstood".
Endora's racism/classism.
Sabrina's mugging.
Helen's failed marriage.
Tracey's parents being homophobes.

You can't just introduce these kinds of ideas, treat them seriously, then drop them.

It's more like someone promising a 4-star meal and delivering lukewarm leftovers.

Probably because the author didn't want to have to contend writing permanent character change, he wanted Zig Zag to be more affected by it for her character, and the whole thing was more or less just a webcomic version of a ratings trap do to the fact that the comic was slipping into unpopularity during before that storyline, not helped that the previous story was Eric getting meta and sniping at the common criticisms/"criticism" readers have had or were having with the comic at the time.

>>2455670
You're kind of just showing that Eric is only interested in writing surface level seriousness without having to actually dissect that thoroughly in his comic. I mean, we just had Brandon go off about his issues with Zig Zag abandoning him and his sister for years and it all just gets resolved underwhelmingly fast in the span of one dinner scene.

I like how this comic is just going so far to make Zig Zag the best friend Endy's ever had that Eric pretty much confirmed the old timer has no friends and is trying to softly rewrite the scene about her being upset over Sabrina marrying a black guy, or whatever the race equivalent of a raccoon is supposed to be in this comic, to her being afraid of being alone. Keep in mind her fears of dying alone was only a small part of her character back then, and even then was a threat made by Sabrina that went ignored after that dinner storyline ended, as it was hatred for mixed species couples that was the major reason she hated Richard, who now that I remember has yet to ever get a real conversation/apology out of her on screen.

>>2459099
Anyone else feel like this comic is talking around Endora's bigotry? Like I know they're technically talking about it what with her being in turmoil over her newfound feelings over Zig kissing her, but it feels like Eric is just vaguely bringing up her past conservative behavior as just her saying or doing the "wrong thing". It's almost like he really regrets that past characterization or doesn't want to bother bringing up this part of her character again without having to be coy about it throughout this conversation. And this is supposed to be her developing as a character!

At this point, Eric really just needs to stop writing these types of stories involving Zig Zag if he's not going to give her actions any real weight. There's only so many times he can write "Zig Zag is an impulsive nymphomaniac with daddy issues" before that well dries up. There's only so many times you can write a character who makes a butt mold of one of their favorite employees without their knowledge or consent and pass that off as a joke (>>2125645) before suddenly having to deep dive into their abusive upbringing again for the eleventeenth time. You can't keep making a character's open sexual behavior and general dismissal over others' personal boundaries a "charming and comical" trait before suddenly trying to make it a serious problem, especially on the same page.

Endora's whole segment is just embarrassing. What was an interesting hook for this storyline turned out to be nothing but gay panicking, self-pitying, guilt-tripping bullshit made into some faux self-reflective character moment, and even then it's not a good one. These pages seem uninterested in actually unpacking Endora's actual negative traits, that being she is, or was, a bigoted woman who was so self-interested in her own issues that she kept getting into fights with Sabrina over marrying Richard, whom she never really apologized to or had a real conversation with since their first meeting, and for trying to live their own life. Instead, Eric spends seven pages trying to make it all about how "old, ugly, undesirable, and lonely" Endora is and how Zig Zag and she are meant to remain friends together. Yeah, she was the least effective controlling parent in fiction with how much Sabrina wasn't taking her shit, but it doesn't change what she originally was. Hell, ironically, these pages accidentally make her sound more self-obsessed over her own feelings than empathetic with how surface-level it all is. Skunks' Day Out really was the last time Endora's prejudiced beliefs were given any serious look with how lightly Eric has treated it afterward, as if the guy would rather sweep it under the rug and forget about it unless he's obligated to mention it again. What makes this worse is I don't even know what Warren's talking about at all. The guy has never once in his life taken his marriage with Endora for granted. It's like Eric forgot to establish him having an actual character or personality outside of being old and somewhat passive and has to make up new things to keep him involved in the current situation.

So far, Adventures in Horde-sitting really was the only new and different way Eric has written any of his stories in this continuation, and that was only because he, for the first time in his life writing this webcomic, had that story focused on someone other than Sabrina and/or Zig Zag as the starring role. It feels like such a fluke looking back on it now with how short and out-of-the-way it was, but it's true. It's much more ambitious than the current storyline, where Eric tries to do something different with how he approaches Zig's behavior but backpedals and turns it into another one of his toothless SO stories. Dude just needs to stop trying to write serious or big storylines. He's not good at them at all. He's never been good at them even in the past (>>1979723). He's just a comedy writer who really should just stay as a comedy writer.

^pretty much all of this.

The characters have become so boring that they fail to make a good story anymore, mainly because Eric refuses to confront the issues they have. He failed to do it here with Endora and ZigZag, and he's failed to do it in the past. Maybe he's afraid of addressing ZigZag flaws because she's his favorite and he doesn't want to paint her in a bad light with any seriousness, or maybe he just doesn't know what to really do with her outside of funny sex stuff. Either, as pointed out, he's not good at serious stories. But he could make good or interesting ones. The problem is that he's pretty much tossed all of his other characters out the window except ZigZag, Sabrina and Endora, and just kept the characters closest to them: Richard, Danielle, Warren, Tabitha, and a few of the porn studio characters. The problem is that apart from Tabitha's story there's nothing interesting about these characters left. Atleast not without going places Eric has already shown he's not willing to go.

I don't see why he doesn't just take the focus off of Sabrina, ZigZag, Endora or the porn characters, and switch it to other characters that he could make funny, lighthearted, or dramatic stories with. Sure it would be taking the focus off of Sabrina who is SUPPOSED to be the main character of this universe, but let's face it: Eric has done that a LONG time ago. ZigZag has pretty much completely over showed Sabrina in Eric's works, pushing her out of the spotlight more and more until the stories pretty much just become the ZigZag show. And his work has greatly suffer for it IMO.

Hell if he can't really think come up with anything for the characters anymore then why not just shift the timeline ahead and create a new stories with the future generation. The one interesting story Eric has written has demonstrated he could do more with them than he could dragging out the same tired tropes or attempting to take the his comics in a serious direction only to backpedal when the story actually starts to push back on the character's flaws. I think the brother was the most disappointing part of the story for me since since he appeared to be the one point where something ZigZag did would be held to some actual standard of accountability, but as usual that turned to shit so that Eric could maintain the status que of "best girl ZigZag can't do nuffin wrong". This whole story was a huge waste of time.

From what I understood, the original plan back in the day was that there would be TWO webcomics based in EWS' world.

Sabrina Online would remain the SFW free strip focused on Sabrina, her family, friends, etc. so he'd have something "clean" to pitch to the syndicates/networks.

The second would have been focused on ZZ Studios, be less "serious", be NSFW, and be pay-to-view ala FurAfterDark. This way people wanting more Zig Zag would be satisfied without alienating people just wanting a silly slice-of-life strip. Both EWS and Max announced potential launch dates around 2005 on various Yahoo Groups (remember those?).

Those plans fizzled out for unknown reasons (mostly attributed to various personal issues in the real world). Other artists and writers retired from the fandom or EWS had banned them from playing in the sandbox.

The problem with another Time Skip has been already brought up:
EWS hates modern tech and internet trends. He can't deal with the fact the internet isn't a niche thing anymore. EVERYONE has access now. Other people have created webcomics and animations and reached Mainstream Status that he never did. (ex. Axe Cop, Helluva Boss/Hasbin Hotel).

A person or business having a website isn't a quirk, it's practically a necessity these days. Media, especially porn, isn't reliant on physical distribution, theaters, or stores anymore. Most people KNOW they can get smut for free and get specifically what they want without "skimming" past the boring parts. The average person now is carrying around a computer that makes his beloved Amiga look like a dollar store calculator.

PLUS, he'd have to age his beloved Zig Zag to a point where someone like her would have long retired from the business. Unless she became Tina 2.0. And as it was said way earlier, no one wants to see a 50–60-year-old still playing the field like they're in their 20s-30s.

The guy makes references to Venmo, VTubers, and whatever meme comes across his feed, so he can't possibly still have that hatred for the tech world changing around him. Maybe for the landscape for the internet, but that's a common enough issue everyone who have been using the world wide web before 2010 has had with it. If anything, it just sounds like he's slow on staying up-to-date with most advancements happening around him. Happens to a lot of people with their own hang-ups over what's familiar to them.

Eric could also just go with the timeless comic angle like other webcomic authors would do to avoid being outdated and trying to stay current. The only real problem is that he's obsessed with pop culture references and satire, so that's probably a contributing reason why he wouldn't be able to do a time skip, other than it wouldn't really improve much anyway.

You know, I had that same idea a long ago as well, but that's going to be hard to do what with how he never tried to set up a strong supporting cast of characters. Perhaps time jumping could work for characters like Timmy, Tabitha and Danielle who definitely need more spotlight, but I sincerely doubt Eric's creativity well on anything outside of porn.

can't you do it in a word processor on your own computer? whining about how a thing sucks isn't just lazy, it's pointless on two levels: nobody really cares how much you dislike a thing and the person making the thing you dislike will likely never see (or care about) your complaints

I used to rip on Naylor's shit all the time, but now I don't because bitching about his shit writing didn't make his art/writing better and it didn't do anything to make me productive

you wanna whine and complain? do something more productive and go write a fanfic where you execute the idea for this specific comic chapter BETTER than Eric

I know it's rich coming from me, but whining and bitching and moaning about anything and everything is pointless and only ever makes you sound like an asshole who never takes any joy in anything

"anti-criticism", what the fuck are you even talking about, lmao, out here trying to invent new terms just to dunk on people

my point is that all your criticism and whining and nitpicking at Eric's work ISN'T GOING TO CHANGE IT - Eric's not here reading your shit, and even if he were, he's the one making bank off his art while you sit here yoinking it for free and talking about him and his work, so who's really fucking winning here?

there are two ways to keep something you dislike from getting more attention: ignore it altogether or outdo it with something better, hence the "do it yourself" bit - if you really think you can do the story for this SO chapter better than Eric's doing it, you shouldn't have any problem writing it yourself, even if it's a broad outline instead of a full-blown story/fanfic

but if all you're going to do is whine and complain, go look up the "it is not the critic who counts" quote from Theodore Roosevelt, because it applies directly to you: as much as you'd love to delude yourself into thinking otherwise, whining and bitching and complaining (even under the guise of criticism) doesn't really change much of anything

no, I'm telling you that if you ignore creative works you dislike and don't talk about them, they're not going to be getting a room in your head for free and you'll contribute to those things being seen as unpopular

hate it all you want, sure, but like the old saying goes, any press is good press - which means the more you're talking about SO and keeping this thread alive and bumped, the more people (including you) are going to see it REGARDLESS of how much you hate it

>don't compare someone to CinemaSins
trying to make me stop comparing whiners to a shitty film nitpicker as if you have ultimate power over me and my life choices *ding*

my broader point is that critique is at least trying to be useful, but all the whining about Zig Zag and Eric's writing really isn't accomplishing that - and if you really hate SO, you'd hide the fucking thread so you'd never have to see it on this board again

I don't much like SO these days because most of the main criticisms (Eric's writing, Zig Zag being treated as right all the time, the boring-ass comic layouts where each page always ends with a punchline because of Eric's writing), but it's part of how I came up in the fandom, so I pay attention to it out of nostalgia and such; you don't see me bitching about it all that much because (1) everyone else already has that covered and (B) if the comic gets to the point where it's worse than mediocre, I can just hide the thread like I've hidden dozens of threads of comics and content types that I don't want to look at

I can't deny that. Debates do make the threads more interesting. Though I wouldn't say there's much to talk about right now. ZZ just resolved most of her family issues. Sabrina is resolving most of her mother's issues at the moment. If anything we need a focus on Amy's family for a bit. Or maybe the Transformers toys again. I noticed the Minicon Whirl was basically written out of the comic some time ago. A return from him might be nice.

Amy's parents haven't been seen since the really old years of the comic, unless they made other incredibly minor appearances in the background. If anything, RC's parents have more potential for story ideas, mainly because it's nice to see a non-prudish parents for a change that isn't Spike and Carli again.

Last I checked, the Transformers toys are the least popular characters who worked better back in the strip days. I swear, they're only "good" when the current storyline has no real focus like Toy Stories, Too.

Oh look at that. A unique design that doesn't look like a copy of any previously existing characters.

So what was the relationship between Zig Zag and her mother again? A lot of attention and cause of Zig's physical and sexual abuse always seems to have been her father while her mother rarely was ever talked about. The most I got was that she was complicit in her husband's actions.

My guess is that she enabled him to do the things he did to her and told zig to just put up with it. It's shitty to think about, but sometimes the reason the mother sides with the father in cases like this is because they're the main providers of the home and the alternative is to live on the streets.

If I recall correctly, ZZ's mom was basically a huge rugsweeper in regards to her husband. She let him abuse their children, ZZ especially. And that guy abused her sexually. Though I don't know the full extent of how far he went. Either way the mom is just as guilty for letting it happen. Looking at her though, I'm guessing she suffered from an inferiority complex because of her pointed ears and tiger striped arms. People an inferiority complex like that will settle for whoever, and then fight way too hard to keep the relationship. My guess is she only got out once all her kids flew the coop. Or she's a widow. One or the other.

It's rare but you can sometimes find art that the owner never shared before they put it up for sale. Pic related.

For a moment thought that was the mother he was grabbing in that last panel. Guess there was a bit of a time jump between those panels. On the left we see Zig as a kid, then on the right she looks teenage. Not the best transition for. That probably would've been best saved for the opening panel of the next page.

>>2475222
Yeah, this page is just exposition. The part with the mom talking about them being younger fits as it's her explaining why she was with him. But after that is unnecessary background dumping.

My own father probably would have become a lot like this guy if he'd stuck around. That said, sometimes alcohol only brings out what was already there deep inside. And once someone like that goes far enough down that path, they just say "Fuck it!" and keep going because they don't see any point in getting better. Also, I'm guessing the man never got convicted of the things he did to Zig Zag, or he might not still be alive in prison. Zig could probably end him just by telling fans of her past, and someone would track him down. The biggest twist I could see in this comic would be Zig Zag's father sharing a cell with the badger that stabbed Sabrina.

The original premise was that Zig's mom was helping cover form him, which explained why she sued to have her siblings taken away from *both* of them rather than just having her dad sent to jail, which made sense. Somebody pointed out she might have done it because he was the breadwinner, but he'd wound up as a bum who couldn't hold down a job and drank everything he earned, so even that premise falls apart.
None of this makes because nobody seems to have a natural reaction to years of knowing that ZigZag was being raped and beaten by her dad.

Mom: Yeah, he used you like a punching bag/onahole but he used to be so nice.
Brother: WTF, you left us just because you were being raped and smacked around every night?
Grandparents: Yeah, we're super involved with your siblings now, but when we were actually needed, I dunno, we kinda didn't feel like it?

It's not "Swatting" unless you actually call in a swat team. Which doesn't really apply to what I said. What I said was that if Zig Zag's fans got wind of what her father did, some of them would probably go after the guy. And the fact he didn't get ended in prison already, likely means that Zig Zag couldn't prove the things he did to her. But she clearly got enough evidence to at least get her siblings taken away from her parents. And from the way things look, her mother had no reason to keep trying to rugsweep once the kids got taken away.

For everybody wondering why the grandparents didn't do anything this is unfortunately common or at least in my experience. Having grown up myself with an abusive alcoholic (mother in my instance) it's honestly disheartening just how much my family was willing to look the other way for to "not rock the boat". Even as I got older and started flat out telling them how she was to live with they would just gaslight me that I was making it all up. She chose to be extremely verbally and emotionally abusive over physical abuse so they though it was okay as long as I didn't have any external injuries.

Yeah, mother's aren't exactly good role models in this universe. Helen's pretty much as guilty as ZZ's mom in terms relationship negligence. Endora!? Well, she maybe a conservative boomer, but I'm not hearing anything out of the ordinary like; physical/emotional abuse, communication problems (at least not an extreme level), neglect, etc. So, I'm putting her second on the bottom of the list. RC's mom (whatever her hippie-ass name is), probably a little above Endora. Yeah, she did love and support him. But it sounds like she was one of the parents that would give they're kid all freedom, and no structure (e.x. Greg Universe, Toph, Ned Flanders parents, etc.). Bottom of the list would be both Amy and Tom's mom, and only because both are almost, if not completely, not mentioned. And the little time they were, they seemed pretty normal.

An abused child would be desperate and try to get help from anyone they think might give it, like close friends and relations.
Either that, or the trauma would cause them to withdraw into themselves to the point that the abuse would be obvious to anyone with half a brain.
ZigZag's story worked better the way Max had done it - very few, very dark details that gave the impression that it was all to painful to recollect.
Eric is half-assing this but even if he wasn't the slice-of-life tone of the Sabrina comics can't handle actually diving into something as dark and traumatic as ZigZag's past.

I find it both ironic and disturbing ZZ's father is angry-humping a tiger-striped pillow. Well I guess he can get all the humping he wants in prison. I can only imagine how bad he'll look if he actually appears in the comic. If anything he'll either become an in-and-out character, or he'll try to go after ZZ or her friends in some twisted way till he gets his ass kicked and sent back to prison. Either way, I do wonder just how much of a narcissist he'll be if he appears.

I don't usually make myself known on this website. But I never minded that EWS's style is outdated. I live a little bit in the past myself. It's 2025, and I still use portable DVD players, drive a truck from the 90s, and game on retro emulators or old consoles. I'm more interested in the story. I've been invested in this webcomic for 15 years. If anything I actually find it comforting that EWS's style has remained consistent. And he actually has his characters age. Sabrina was 22 at the start of the comic, and is around 31 now. ZZ was 27 when she first appeared, and that'd make her about 36 now. And if I can recall right, RC might be two to three years older than Sabrina, so he's maybe 33 or 34 now. I admit it's been a long time coming showing ZZ's family. But at least this arc is putting more understanding with ZZ's obsession with Sabrina, since it turns out Sabrina reminds ZZ of her mother. And in the future, I hope we see more spotlight on Sabrina's sister Tabitha as she navigates being a teenager, and eventually an adult that's starting her own career, as well as looking for love.

A fizzle. I really don't get why Eric chose to do this arc. It's a good idea in general, but it would have required seriously heavy drama - words shouted in anger, characters breaking down in tears... heavy cathartic drama shit. I don't think he can pull that off, and even if he had it wouldn't have fit the slice-of-life tone of the Sabrina comics.

>I really don't get why Eric chose to do this arc

My guess is that he felt like it was a self-imposed requirement. Zig Zag's his favorite character to write and he knows that most expect more exploration into her past, so he decided to have it while giving his Sabrina cast something to do as a B-plot. Problem is the fact he can't commit to heavy drama since that's way out of his wheelhouse, as you said, so it was always going to be unsatisfying. I'm still more upset how he handled Endora and "I'm so lonely" speech.

More or less. All I get out of this from what he said back then in that Toy Stories, Too story is that he wanted to make it a "more ambitious ZZ Studio-focused story", but it's mostly just Zig Zag practically throughout this run. Feels like he didn't think of the premise all that much more other than having Zig Zag in it, but I digress.

Point is, this is a weak family drama story with Sabrina tacked onto it, with a weak B-plot focused on Endora that started so strong before fell over itself and died in the corner. It especially didn't help that it came after the Tabitha story which was actually pretty good for once.

Endora's behavior there was mild compared to people in similar situations. When I became an dult and moved out, my mother started infantilizing me any time I was around her. And she once told me while sobbing that I was supposed to be her best friend. I told her to go out any make some friends. At least Endora did that.

* = Let's hope Tabitha doesn't end up turning into Sabrina and vice versa**. Man that would be a freaky Friday(!)

(** = Ironically, that IS how this series take on "Jekyll & Hyde" ends, with Endora being Jekyll and ZigZag as Hyde; Sabrina, either in the role of the secretary to main protagonist lawyer (played by Warren) or a young female police officer, out of curiosity, downs the last of the Hyde formula and turns into Tabitha!
And whilst Hyde-ZigZag made the streets safer for the night-walkers and women of the streets, Tabitha-Hyde would make the streets safer for the urchins and street-kids, and thus became a take on the Artful Dodger)

I think Eric wants to 'clean up' ZigZag the way he cleaned up Endora from her racism/speciesm, but since Zig has been kind of a one-note sexual harassment joke for ages he has to make a big dramatic arc to change her.

And speaking of ages, how long has her dad been in prison? I think we're talking something like... 20 years? Like, how long a sentence could he have gotten for child abuse/rape, especially if his wife didn't testify about her own beatings? Bad behavior could have gotten the sentence extended, but the only people he ever beat were his wife and child. Guys like that usually end up like prison bitches when they do a long haul, don't exactly go around picking fights.

Except dealing with "my dad is an chronic alcoholic man who beat my mother and molested me" isn't on the same level of "my mom's a fussy bigot". This is way to delegate of a topic to write in your overly comedic webcomic, so when you're not even bothering to treat it with the weight that it deserves by dropping all the weekly punchlines, you're doing it a massive disservice to the subject.

Also, Endora's racism was only one aspect of her character to fix, but let's be honest, Eric kind of abandoned that like her passive hypocritical self-centrism years ago.

Depending on the prison, they do keep sex offenders in separate units away from gen pop, and never let them mingle. If that is the case, he'd only be around others with similar offenses. So, Zig could mouth all she wanted to other prisoners, but there is little they could do to reach him.

I wonder if Zig's father was ever actually convicted of what he did to her. He was still at home for some time after she left, and the mother was paranoid enough to have a doorbell cam in case he got out. Thus far it seems like he's only in prison for lesser charges like battery. Because if he'd been convicted of the stuff he did to Zig Zag, he might have been in prison all that time. I'm guessing there was either no evidence, or a stature of limitations. That said, openly talking about it with a guard nearby listening might not do him any favors.

A lot of prisons are not near population centers so visitors tend to be more sporadic in nature.
And a lot of times the prisoner is being held halfway to bumfuck egypt from their home town so anyone who wants to visit them needs to schedule a whole day off to drive there and see them.

Lately I've been seeing a news story about that associate of Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislane Maxwell.
She's been moved from a Florida prison, to a minimum security prison in Texas. Complete with work release priviledges. Something in this case of Epstein and his crony really stinks.

As to Zig's father, I think he was caught in a really serious crime, like selling dope or armed robbery.

There is politics in your post, because you mentioned something didn't smell right about the case. And then about Ghislane Maxwel being moved to a more comfortable prison. Politics were the reason for all of that. It's all over the news enough as it is. We don't need it here too.

Also, this comic is about a fictional prison, with a fictional inmate, that may not even be a registered sex offender because he may not have ever actually been arrested for what he did to Zig Zag since left home as a teenager, and then came back later when she had the money to get her grandparents custody of her siblings. And by the father's own admission, he never sexually did anything to his other daughter. He was potentially arrested for wife beating and other stuff like that. But from the way Zig and her mother talked about it, the father's current stay in prison may have nothing to do with the past family situation. The mother wouldn't have needed a restraining order if he wasn't free at some point.

Just keep stuff like Epstein out of this thread for all our sakes. The real world is depressing enough. That's one of the reasons people come here.

Hopefully soon we'll find out excatly why Zig's father is in jail.
I did notice in the last panel that her father sort of blamed her for being molested, sex offenders are notorious for doing that.
"It's not my fault, he/she seduced me!"
"He she was wearing sexy clothes!"
Or in this case, Zig "filled out crazy."

In her original backstory, her father had been beating her because of her 'attitude' or something for years before she hit puberty, and then he started raping her. It's sadistic sociopath behavior - sex was just a new way of hurting her.
In the original Brandy never got raped but it wasn't because her boobs weren't big enough. It was because by the time she hit puberty ZigZag was already a runaway and things like that tend to flag you with CPS, so her dad had to tone things down or get sent to prison as a child rapist with no street rep. Right into the hands of the booty warrior...

Zig's life is the way it is because of how she grew up. So, the question is then what her life would be like if she had had a normal youth? Would she just be an office worker? A wife with a couple of kids of her own, going to PTA meetings, and taking part in bake-offs? Or would she still have gone into stripping and limited prostitution, as was shown with the flashback when she met Tina?

So, in some twisted way, then, she owes her current life and success to him and his actions.

This page pretty much sums up when people say "Sabrina Online" has a tone problem.

For *decades* whenever Zig's dad was brought up, the comic treated his actions as dead serious. There weren't jokes made about whether Zig enjoyed it or compared him to her later flings, co-stars, etc.

He was always this dark, vile monster that she wanted to forget because the law already dealt with him.

Now, when he finally shows up, not only does EWS treat what he did as a joke, he gives HIM the punchline.

It's practically a Seth MacFarlane cut away gag. "Of course I molested/raped you! You were hot!"
You can almost hear the line being given in Glen Quagmire's or (later seasons) Peter Griffin's voice.

It's like Frodo and Sam getting to Mount Doom and they start making fart jokes.

Her dad being in jail for so long may depend on what else he was caught doing.

Remember, "white trash backstory". And I think the Zig Zag Story fanfiction implied he was a career criminal by the point he decided to start beating/molesting his kids.

That's the thing - the Sabrina Online comics are Eric's SFW, story oriented comics, but it's just light-hearted slice-of-life stuff. As people have pointed out, you can't have both a woman confronting the father who beat and raped her and Toy-Story transformers segments in the same comic.

It's not so much a desire to be "taken seriously" as much as it's a desire to "go mainstream".

It's been pointed out a few times that EWS' dream job was to be a professional animator, mainly for WB (ouch). That's why his art resembles the cartoons of the 90s. He's admitted this a few times in the past.

So, he throws everything at the wall, hoping the strip will get picked up for newspaper syndication or a prime-time series.

That's why the comic is such a mishmash of tones and styles. EWS is more an emulator that a writer with his own unique style.

Sometimes it's a Looney Tunes short. Then it tries to be "Dilbert" or "Doonesbury". Then it wants to be an episode from TGIF or Disney Channel. Then it's a scene from "Boogie Nights". Then it tries to copy the satire and references-style humor of Simpsons and Family Guy. Then he tries to copy the "Navel Gaze with wit and profanity" of Kevin Smith. Then it wants to be like "Omaha the Cat Dancer". Now EWS is trying to copy the cynical "Generational Trauma" of Rick and Morty and Bojack Horseman.

What the actual fuck.

Yeah, that's what burns the most here: Zig Zag went to see her dad for some kind of closure or whatever, and all that's happened is he's gotten the rhetorical upper hand on her on nearly every page. I'd like to think Eric would identify more with Zig Zag than her rapist, but given who's "winning" the war of words between the two, I'm inclined to think Eric is justifying child rape, intentionally or otherwise, as a "character-building exercise".

Like I said: When Jay Naylor writes both the victim and the perpetrator of a sexual assault in a better way, you're kind of cooked as a writer. Even the dude who tried to rape Fisk's mom got got by friends of Fisk's dead dad, and the worst that'll probably happen to Zig Zag's dad is ZZ will get a weak-ass mic drop moment before leaving.

If the next page of this comic isn't Zig Zag telling off her dad with no interruptions and no lame-ass "joke" at the end, that's how you know Eric Schwartz is more fucked up than Jay "my old fursona is a sister-fucking American terrorist" Naylor.

On a lighter side note, I had a dream/premonition about a future plot for this comic, following earlier events.

Basically, it was Endora sitting at the kitchen table with Sabrina and telling her some surprising news that could, once again, change her life.

Endora tells Sabrina in broken sentences that she'd gone to see the doctor, and when Sabrina asks her how serious it is, Endora tells her the doctor gave her 8-9 months.

Sabrina is shocked, and tells her mother that she's sorry for the way she treated her and will do the best to make her last days has happy, memorable and love-filled as possible...

...only for Endora to bring her down to Earth, just as Tabitha comes into the room (from under the frame), by bluntly pointing out that she's NOT dying but PREGNANT.

How does that grab anyone? Or was that too much like "Tina's Story"?

Like a limp noodle.

First off, the biggest problem I see with your setup is the whole "the doctor's giving me 8-9 months" thing - NO ONE phrases a pregnancy announcement like that. Writing such a thing in such a weird way, and doing so only to produce an artificial conflict/set up a awful punchline, would actually be WORSE than Eric's writing.

Then there's the fact that Endora MUST be past menopause by now, and while it's not unheard of, a woman in her 50s isn't likely to have a child, and Endora might be older than even that. And yes, I know - it's just a webcomic - but still, there's got to be a little grounding in reality, and Endora already had Tabitha when Sabrina was a full-grown adult, so Endora getting pregnant AGAIN wouldn't be a good storyline unless you wanted to make it about Endora's health and whether she can even handle having another baby at her age...which is not a storyline I would trust Eric to write with the kind of grace required to write such a storyline.

Basically, your biggest problem is you're trying to write a dramatic storyline for a slice-of-life comic, and...well, you can see how well that's working out for the actual author of that comic in this thread.

Eric Schwartz is now a worse writer than Jay Naylor. I mean, 90% of Naylor's characters are unrepentant assholes and he lets his politics and beliefs about women bleed onto every page of his work, but at least he isn't trying to make an out-and-out sex offender relatable. Even the guy who tried to rape Fisk's mom was written as a creep who got domed by Fisk and "euthanized" by friends of Fisk's dad.

I'm kind of amazed that Eric's still trying to keep this digression going because it only makes Zig Zag look bad and his writing look worse. What the actual fuck.

This might actually be worse than the "Revenge on Trolls" arc.

While that was a low point in the strip's run, it was relatively short.

This just keeps going on and on. The fact that Zig Zag can steam roll hundreds of random guys who sassed her on a message board but can't do jack shit against the guy who used to beat and molest her shows just how terrible a writer EWS is when it comes to genuine emotions and situations that haven't been done to death on an episode of Must See TV.

When you've read a bunch of AI writing, you tend to notice consistencies in how LLMs write - like overuse of the specific phrase "stark contrast". Part of that is because it's a phrase often in news stories, which LLMs were partially trained on. Even if you didn't use AI to write your comment, the use of that phrase is a red flag in that regard because I never see it in any context other than news reports and AI writing. I mean, you can use it all you want, but using it is bound to make people familiar with AI writing think you're using AI to write for you.

I could've been less confrontational, so I apologize for my initial aggression. And "stark contrast" isn't an "uncommon" phrase, but as I said, I tend to see it in news reports and AI writing more often than any other kind of writing. Seeing it outside of those contexts raises a red flag for me. It's less about it being a "high and mighty" phrase and more about it being a phrase that people don't really use in everyday conversation/writing.

I don't really see this as relatable. It has just been several pages dealing with a self-pitying deadbeat who has no regrets over the fact he ruined his own life. As in the only thing he regrets is the fact he's in prison and has nothing to his name. All he's done is envy his daughter's success and is trying to gaslight her into thinking his abuse benefitted her in someway to become a famous porn star.

As weird as it is at least Tabitha's getting old enough to kind of make sense of what she's surrounded by? In a taking it too serious moment it's still probably not good for a preteens development but I think it's at least a bit better than when she was younger and completely oblivious to everything around her.

I mean she did "make art" with Zig-Zag in that tasteful photoshoot, it was a trying to make the best of a situation but still was a little kid unaware that she was having photos taken in a porn studio.

Though with this page I'd like to imagine Sheila being too ditzy to get it's a joke and proceed to explain in vivid detail what she wants to do before Sabrina comes rushing in to stop her.

If she can't make sense and is oblivious to it, it's probably got little to no impact on her innocence. And the old B&W arc had a more comical vibe, and the absurd question of "how do you child-proof a porn studio?" was a good comedic premise.
But this comic is more slice of life (and failed attempts of drama) now and having a child who is aware of (and curious about) sex in a porn studio... in the same chapter that is implying Zig owns her success to being abused as a child...
Yeah, Eric is raising serious red flags with this one...

Classic "save the family business" plotline with a comedic twist. It'd work better with three siblings. That way, they could bounce child logic off each other and build it into wacky schemes. Whereas if it's just one kid running the business, they'd only be interacting with adults, so it's harder to build the zany energy and have kid antics bulldoze the adults.

I can't believe EWS is trying to turn a child-raping, wife-beating drunkard into a sympathetic father figure by way of "you know, I learned something today" moralizing. His shitty-90s-sitcom writing has no business being near a situation like "a child abuse survivor is confronting her molester so the survivor can get some kind of closure". JFC, this really better end with ZZ being allowed a chance to fuck up her father physically or the entire Sabrina Online comic going back to ZZ's introduction should be purged from the fucking timeline.

Nice lesson, but it really could've been said by anyone else. Her dad doesn't even seem to regret the part about what he's done to his family. More like he hates his life, but is aware enough that blaming others has only gotten him in prison time and time again.

And yes the sit-com humor isn't appropriate, but at this point that's always going to be a regular.

THERE. That's what makes this whole little side arc particularly disgusting.

If he was more remorseful about his abusive behavior and honest about how he was responsible for the decisions (including the decision to drink) that led to the abuse, MAYBE this would work as a reconciliation/"I learned something today" moment. Instead, Zig Zag is being lectured by a CHILD MOLESTER who is being framed as having AN ACTUAL POINT about her, the abuse she endured, and how it affected her. He might be right about her, but he isn't the person who should be telling her that - and the writing shouldn't be trying to make him sympathetic in any way.

This whole storyline better end with a page where Zig's dad finds out what happens to child molesters in prison. It's the only fucking way to redeem this shitty writing. That, and it'd be a better ending than whatever Eric has planned to sorta-kinda-maybe wrap up three distinct plotlines (Zig Zag's feelings about kissing Endora, Endora's feelings about being kissed, and Tina needing a new place to live), at least two of which have gotten lost in the shuffle of "I need to have Zig Zag's rapist father psychoanalyze her instead of having her find a way to beat the shit out of him".

It kinda makes sense. Some guys are better ex-husbands than they ever were husbands. The reason he can't really be bothered to care what happened to ZZ is because he knows he can't undo his past, and at least ZZ became successful in spite of him. So he doesn't even need to worry about her. And he also knows ZZ will take care of her siblings without him. So he doesn't need to worry about them either. But ZZ went no contact with her mother for a long time. So it makes sense he'd be worried about her, because she was the one left alone after the kids were taken away. He knows he can't save himself. So he probably feels like his ex-wife is the last bit of good he has. Even if he never sees her again. That said, I highly doubt he's on the offender registry, because he was never arrested for what he did to ZZ when she was a kid. He was arrested for other things after ZZ left. And he never laid a finger on his other kids.

Yes. And? Doesn't change the fact that EWS has been writing him as a remorseless CHILD MOLESTER who MOLESTED HIS UNDERAGE DAUGHTER and thinks everything is okay because said daughter turned out fine. He hasn't really apologized to ZZ or shown any hint of actual remorse for what he put her through. Nothing about what he's said to ZZ makes him sympathetic when you think beyond the surface, but EWS wants us to have at least some level of sympathy for a man who raped his own underage daughter and JOKED ABOUT IT TO HER FACE.

And I understand that EWS's writing has gone to some weird fucking places after he ended Sabrina Online. The Jane Cottontail comics started with her getting gangraped. Same for the Batgirl parody series. But writing a remorseless child rapist as a sympathetic figure - or making the attempt, at any rate - is a level of fucked up beyond anything he's ever posted before. Shit, I would've accepted this better if her father had been a serial killer instead of a child molester. At least the dark humor of a character like John "Jigsaw" Kramer is more understandable than someone trying to make light of raping children.

Calm down man. I understand your anger. And believe me, I feel no sympathy for ZZ's father either. He is remorseless about what he did to her. But what can you expect. He knows that having remorse won't change anything. He did what he did, and has to live with it. No amount of apologies would ever make it better, or even offer closure. Nor would it save his soul. And he knows that. So instead he's just being what he already knows he is. If anything, he may have a worse time after prison. No home, no family will take him in, and a rap sheet decades long. He's most lucky ZZ didn't dox him. Because if she came out and publicly said the things her father did to her, someone would track him down. But she doesn't do that, because it would mean sinking to his level.

I get that, but it's still shitty writing to make him that remorseless and STILL have ZZ sit there and take everything he throws at her like SHE is the worse of the two. Like you (and her father) pointed out, she survived being raped and still managed to eke out a successful (and slightly fucked up) life for herself. But metaphorically, she's been taking hit after hit after hit from her father in this conversation - as if Eric wants to make him a "voice of reason" or some path for ZZ to get some kind of emotional closure. It's fucking baffling that he's gone this far to make her child-raping wife-beating shithead of a father seem almost LIKEABLE if you forget about the domestic abuse and child rape.

And as far as apologizing not meaning much: So what? Even if it can't erase the past, it can heal in the present. The whole point of apologies is to show remorse and repentance for how you wronged someone in the past so you can, in some way, help repair the someone you wronged. Being this remorseless about RAPING A CHILD shows that if he had the chance, he'd probably do it again - and that's not the kind of person that EWS (or any other writer) should trying to be painting as sympathetic in any way. Like I've said before, even Naylor had the decency to kill off the guy who tried to rape Fisk's mom in "Better Days". EWS probably won't even give ZZ the satisfaction of telling her dad off for good. When someone's writing is so bad that Jay fucking Naylor can be considered a better writer, that should be a warning sign for that someone to wrap up their bullshit and move on to something else. Which, yes, is exactly what EWS should be doing.

Yeah, the father is a narc. But He didn't go to ZZ. She came to him. If you went to talk to someone like him in prison, how do you think he'd reply? With tears? Not really. They're gonna deflect, then act like you are who you are because of them. Then they're gonna either get mad, or just act casual about it because there's a wall of unbreakable glass between you. As messed up as it is, this is a more realistic situation than you think.

You're getting a little too graphic man. But he did have the chance. He had another daughter in the house, and he never tried to do to her what he did to ZZ. Even he mentally grasped how fucked up it was after ZZ left. And he could have gone after anyone else during the periods he was not in prison, and didn't. But when you do what he's done, apologies aren't enough. They'll never be enough. If he just looked at illegal stuff online, or snuck a camera into a bathroom, then sure, he could apologize for that. But what he did, there's no real apologizing for. All he can really do is explain why he did it. The problem with people who go bad on that level is that once they realize they've crossed the line too far, they often just stop caring. Basically thinking "Well I'm damned anyway. So why bother to change.". That's what kind of person ZZ's father is. Yes, some part of him still cares about his family. Cares enough to know to stay away unless something were to happen to his ex or children. He knows exactly what he is, and even the idea of him possibly coming back for any reason would probably incite the family to make sure he never has that reason. In his own fucked up way, he's saying to forget about him and go live their lives better than he had. But ZZ isn't the one walking away yet, even though she already should have.

Generic, artificial, and bland.

For all of his limitations as a writer, Schwartz has (or had) a hand-drawn aesthetic much more lively in its linework, gestures, and postures, than the stuff drawn by his imitators.

Really only Zig's dad, and even then EWS made sure to point out that he only went after Zig when she hit her "growth spurt" and conveniently never touched Brandy.

Zig-Zag did have some worries about getting too close to Tabitha and not realizing she had to put some kid barriers up to protect Tabitha from seeing more than she should at a young age. She did do that sfw but risque photoshoot with Tabitha, but most of her worries about that was her willingness to want to put it online without thinking of who might actually want to see a porn star and little skunk girl together.

Tabitha in that future comic has to only be 4-5 years older than Timmy if I had to guess, and as weird as it is with this comic page. I could see them kindling something when he's actually old enough and not being preyed upon. But also I do like a head cannon idea of Tabitha's niece Danielle having a crush on a slightly older Timmy when she's a tween.

>>2512459
Obviously being a bit dramatic but yeah this story feels like it crossed a weird line for me. Like he didn't need to give Zig's dad so much screen time let alone the final word or the one up so many times. Now instead of future Zig saying she looks at intern Tabitha like a little sister, I could see her thinking she has a great opportunity to be a start a career getting gangbanged.

Ultimately, Eric fucked up because he didn't pick a lane.
Zig's mother painted a man who was initially a really good father and husband but who became violent and abusive when he slipped into alcoholism. Which is real - some people who normally aren't aggressive get unreasonably so when drunk. But you can't really be that much of a drunk in prison and Warren does seem sober, so without alcohol as a trigger he would have shown some remorse.
But in prison he acts completely remorseless and devoid of guilt. This is also a real thing and is the mark of a true sociopath - people who only recognize pain as bad if if it is inflicted on them. That kind of person could never have kept up a loving husband and father act for over a decade.

A person can't be both, he had to pick a redemption/remorse arc or a true villain/monster arc.

Yeah, that's the weirdest choice. Wives of abusive men tend to have an unfortunate tendency to return to them, but ZigZag's mom took out a restraining order so she's not the type.
And Brandy lived in a house where she saw her dad first kick the shit out of her sister, then move on to raping her. When ZigZag ran away, I imagine she would have been scared of being the next in line.
The only likely bit of sympathy Warren could have gotten would be his son. And if he'd been buying his dad's excuses, it would have explained why he's antagonistic towards Zig (he could have convinced his son that ZigZag had always been a slut, that she broke up the family etc.).

But everything in this arc feels like someone's been picking tropes out of a hat...

Tabitha was 2 or 3 when Timmy was born. That future version of her was 18. And future Sabrina said future Timmy was "Like 16". So it seems to be a roughly two to three year age gap. And not to get all Freudian, but I think Tabitha's attraction to Timmy might be a sort of reason someone might be sexually attracted to a biological, adopted or step relative. Someone a long time ago here pointed out incest is so tempting for some because they feel like there's less fear of rejection. Like it mentally feels safer for them because it's someone they've known for so long, and it's like unconditional love, but with sex, despite it being wrong. In Tabitha's case, she grew up with Timmy like a close but not biologically related cousin. And Timmy has always been a bit of a strong silent type. Which some wmen might find attractive. Especially since Tabitha is a chatterbox that always walked all over him. She sees Timmy as so attractive because she's already so close to him from knowing him literally his entire life, and could likely seduce him with ease once the time comes. For all we could know, she might be his date to senior prom. And I could see a future arc where she gets jealous of other girls hanging around Timmy. And frankly, I'd welcome a time skip in the comic that goes to when Tabitha is an adult working at ZZ studios and navigating adulthood like Sabrina was when this webcomic started in 1996. It'd be a nice change to get past this current arc.

I always thought she was closer to 4 or 5 when Timmy was born, but you're probably right around 3 with how much baby talking she used to do.

Despite how much she's leering at a 16 year old Timmy in the future comic I agree, I honestly wouldn't see too much wrong with it. they grew up side by side, I wouldn't be surprised if they napped together, even though it's not shown in every strip I feel like that could have easily had that kid next door kind of crush, relationship. Certainly Timmy couldn't keep her away from him when he was much smaller.

I think the comic could have used a bit more cute one offs with those two, like a real traditional comic strip. If Eric wanted to he might be able to do something similar with Danielle and Timmy, but she hasn't exactly shown the same kind of crazy ball of energy her aunt did, and Timmy hasn't had anything too exciting happening character wise since was crawling around and hunting roaches or the transformer toys.

At the start of the webcomic. Sabrina was 22. And Tabitha was born when Sabrina was 19 or 20, and was 2 when she first appeared. Amy got knocked up in the comic pretty fast. So Tabitha was three at most when Timmy was born.

One of the problems is, EWS kept Timmy looking like a toddler way too long in the comic, even though Tabitha clearly aged. I think EWS just didn't think of how to make Timmy start to grow up till a new baby was on the scene.

Yeah Timmy spent a good amount of time in toddler limbo. In the same story where Tabitha's got a few snappy lines and even remarking about how she's not sure she's old enough to be an aunt yet, Timmy's still stuck with single word responses.

In Meeting of Mom's he gets a bit more chatty and in Toy Stories Too he's downright polite and fully conversational. Thankfully much like the rest of the cast he's still adorable.

Hopefully in the future Eric gives the kids some time in the spotlight, might be fun and lighthearted compared to whatever the hell we've been subjected to for the last while here.

To be fair, it's not a unique problem. There's tons of series that either struggle to gradually age their characters up naturally or choose not to to avoid having to come up with new things to do with their characters as well as how to write them later down the line.

Let's not forget Eric didn't even have Tabitha be a preteen until the continuation came in when suddenly she becomes a snarky know-it-all obsessed with her tablet. Despite this, it took years for him to write one story focusing on Tabitha with this new character angle that wasn't just focused on her admiration over Zig Zag and it was the shortest since Baby Steps and Homecoming that only dragged a little due to just how lacking in ideas Eric tends to get when writing anything storyline these days. I doubt he'd have much idea what fun scenario he could put Timmy in when his current characterization is quiet and polite, the opposite of the kind of characters he writes in his story, unless he rips the bandaid off and shows the only two active kid characters what their lives are like outside the adult casts dull activites and ever present drama.

Possible, but I'm betting this godawful mess is there to justify him cleaning up ZZ and presenting it as "character growth". Eric's version of ZigZag has always been just a Pepe le Pew knock-off, back from the days he dreamed of becoming an animator for WB. Fuck, even their species are the same. But Pepe hasn't aged well and Eric might be looking for a way to salvage ZigZag because he can't afford to ditch her.

People forget that in context, Pepe is TECHNICALLY the bad guy of his cartoons.

Most of his shorts show him getting injured or rejected for his behavior.

Chuck Jones even said Pepe is that guy at a bar who THINKS he's God's gift to women but just comes off as a sleazy jerk.

By contrast, Zig Zag is shown to be 100% right in her actions. She's just trying to loosen Sabrina and Endora up. She only beats up people who deserve it. People would just "misunderstand" her posing half-naked with a under-aged girl on a porn website.

Misunderstanding or not, bring under-aged kids to a porn studio/website (even if the kid is related to someone in the staff, or has nothing to do with the studio) is f#%$ing illegal.
She may not be a bad guy, like Pepe, but she is a sleazy jerk like him.

The reason Pepe was likeable was because he was an antagonist, but like all Looney Tunes antagonists (Wiley Coyote, Elmer Fud etc.) he was incompetent and inefectual with every scheme blolwing up in their face (often literally).
You can have bad guys like that in a toony setting, but that's not what SO is. Eric could have grown her character when she went to therapy, but he just bailed on that and her her seduce her therapist who naturally just jumped into the sack with her and the status quo marched on until this godawful mess.

I'd like to think otherwise, but the way he's been trying to make a literal child rapist seem at least somewhat likeable AND smarter/wittier than his victim (who also happens to be the artist's favorite character that isn't Sabrina herself) makes me think he has no idea how to write this sort of thing without having more sympathy for the rapist than the survivor. His comics turning to rape - and trying to paint those instances of rape as "somewhat humorous" instead of "horrifying" - as part of their sexual content doesn't help him here, either. Seriously: Jane Cottontail was groped and gangbanged against her will in her first comic and a good chunk of that had jokes about her facial expressions while she was being sexually assaulted. That's fucked up, and so is this mini-arc.

Calm down man. No need to get heated again. EWS isn't trying to make ZZ's father likeable, he's trying to make him relatable, with ZZ anyway. Likeable and relatable are not the same things. I'm sure plenty of good people have things in common with plenty of bad people that they wish they didn't. It's not wrong that him and ZZ share some traits, and that's because of what he did to her. I'm by no means denying or downplaying the messed up stuff that guy has done to her. And the fact that he was never prosecuted for it, does hack me off. But if all you're going to do is rant and rage about what the guy is any time someone even mentions anything not negative or relatable about him or the situation, it's not gonna change anything here. And while that other comic did something rather nasty while trying to make it comedic, know that I didn't enjoy that comic at all. It's far from EWS's best work. But with Sabrina Online, all I feel seeing this scene is ZZ seeking some form of closure. Her old man is an obvious unrepentant narc who tried and failed to gaslight and play head games, and now he's upset they didn't work. But he still shows a very faint glimmer of a father in him, even though he will NEVER be deserving of it ever again. And this situation is ultimately about ZZ and the resolution she seeks to have after going there.

Anyway, I'd rather look forward to how things will be in the comic after ZZ leaves the prison, and we hopefully never see her old man again, unless he beats up the badger that assaulted Sabrina or something. I'd be ok with that.

This isn't character complexity, this is disastrously bad writing or - since we're talking about Eric- bad copy-pasting.
He took two sources - a decent father sinking into depression and adicton which drove him to violence. The second source is some sort of interview with a serial rapist/killer, a person who is completely devoid of guilt or sympathy. Those are drastically different mindsets but for this character he's trying to just mix-and-match lines, bungling it further by shoe-horning his rather weak jokes where they can't fit.
A true remorseless socipoath would have never been a loving husband and father, those people are fundamentally inhuman.
So let's go with the more relatable version of a good dad fallen on hard times and making awfull mistakes because addiction *is* a downward spiral and that tracks. He's sobered up in prison and years later, out of the blue, his daughter and victim shows up to face him. This would have been a *staggering* event, an emotional bombshell, but he doesnt emote. Because this part is a rip off with the "interview with a sociopath" trope and they as a rule don't emote in situations like this.

And with his recent works like Jane Cottontail and Chiropterana, this is a major red flag. I don't think Eric's going to get this out of his system and move on, I think things are going to get worse...

Did I ever say it was good writing? I most certainly did not. Secondly, I would not call this a copy-paste. And to be frank, how can anyone write a scene like this now and somehow be wholly original with it? Considering how much it's been done in media for like the last century. Also, the father is not a killer. I don't know why you used that as part of an example. Stop taking your rage replies to 11. Next. people can become remorseless sociopaths with time. It's not always a born condition. And sometimes when it is, it can take decades to appear. For many, once they go too far down a dark road, they stop caring about redemption. So trying to make them feel guilt is pointless. ZZ's father doesn't care because he knows he's damned, and nothing will change that. I don't know why it's even a debate with you to continuously rant the same things over and over again. It's like you enjoy baiting people into saying something you don't like, just so you can make a long rant detailing your opinion. You've done that enough here already. And you're repeatedly taking about what kind of person the man is and what he's done isn't a win all argument. Otherwise this would have stopped long ago.

And yes, it's a trope. But not one that fit here because ZZ's father isn't that. He's a horrible person, but comparing him to something he isn't was poor terminology to use. ZZ's father isn't even serial anything. He beat his wife and sexually abused his eldest daughter. But he didn't go on to do those things other women or kids, or his other daughter wouldn't even want to be near him. I also wouldn't call ZZ's father deranged. Just remorseless. He didn't like being confronted by his past. From his behavior, I doubt he enjoys thinking about what he's done. He just doesn't care to regret it because he can't undo or make amends for it.

But I don't usually see anyone in the Kadath posts flipping about about people like ZZ's father. They mostly just rant about the relentless cuckolding Kadath keeps drawing. It's so predictable that no one really has to take the time to wait to see where it goes, because they typically already know with Kadath's work.

I see rage when someone seems to say anything about ZZ's father not hateful, and then someone rants about what the guy did to her over and over again like a broken record. The repetition gets tiresome. At least you didn't do it in caps like the other guy. And I've been reading this webcomic since about 2010, if not earlier. I found out about it by finding a paperback of the webcomic year of when Amy got married in a used book store. So I'm at the 15 or more year mark too. And EWS doesn't need to salvage this. All he needs to do is have ZZ walk away and not come back. I'd be angry if EWS tried to make the father a regular character after this, which frankly he shouldn't. But I'm fully willing to forget him once she walks out the door.

There's the admission I've been waiting for: This is about nostalgia for you!

Look, I get being nostalgic for SO. I found it in the very early 2000s and followed it to the end in its original form. Wouldn't call it "great", but it was enjoyable for what it was. But the fact remains that Eric's never been good at writing "serious" stuff, and it's showing in this attempt to end every page of this mini-arc - an arc featuring a child rape survivor confronting her rapist - with a stupid joke, including one that tried to justify that rape. As was pointed out earlier, the original SO did a bit where Tina and Sabrina were discussing ZZ's past and the gag was a fourth wall-breaking "you didn't really expect us to make a joke about rape, did you" look at the viewer. Here, one of the "jokes" was "I raped you because you got tits early", and it's not played off as the horrific bullshit it should clearly be treated as.

Nostalgia is dangerous because it makes you put on rose-colored glasses and see red flags as just flags. The old SO was never like this. When ZZ tried to kiss Sabrina in the hotel room, ZZ got decked and the strip made sure to say "yeah, what she did was wrong and she deserved what she got". Here, one of the "jokes" is her rapist all but saying "you deserved what you got because boobs". You're so eager to defend an at-best incredibly flawed piece of writing that you're telling us we literally can't criticize it until it's over, then in the same breath, you're telling us we have your permission to rip into Kadath or anyone else with gleeful abandon as if we needed it, wanted it, or should've waited for it. Your willingness to defend the flaws of this writing and demand that we see where this goes while making no such demands of other artists and their writing - not Kadath, not Naylor, not Rick Griffin - is a sure sign of nostalgia fucking up your brain.

Let go of the past. Or at least take off the rose-colored glasses and look at all the red flags without letting your brain tell you they're not red flags. Nostalgia rots your thinking; don't let it rot yours just because you fap to Zig Zag.

Yeah, this is the really creepy part. Like what happened to Eric from between now and then to make him think *that* line was a good idea? Even if he thought he could somehow make a "let's hear the child-rapist's side of the story" work in favor for ZZ, what could have possessed him to think that joke was a good idea when at one point he knew that it was just in the worst possible taste?

I don't know how you got nostalgia from that. If I was speaking nostalgic, I'd be saying something like the webcomic should have stayed period instead of a floating timeline, or act gaga for Sabrina's retro tech or her and RC's mutual love of certain toys or figures, or even talk about the series as if it had ended, or missing the old black and white format. And I don't do any of that. The very definition of nostalgia is to be sentimental longing for the past, which in the case of this webcomic, I am frankly not doing. Just because I've read this webcomic for over 15 years doesn't make me nostalgic. It just makes me a fan waiting for the next installment. Much like how someone waits for the next episode of a TV show. But I don't really obsess over this comic, or EWS's work in general. Especially since I can and do draw my own comics. And you can't call it nostalgic just because I'd rather forget ZZ's father once she walks out of the prison. People like him you want to forget. And I doubt people would like him getting brought up over and over again once he's not appearing anymore.

Realistically, if I confronted someone like Sabrina's father in prison, them joking about what they'd done would not surprise me. That's not EWS trying to make a joke about it, that's him correctly portraying how someone like ZZ's father would act in the situation. Which is basically DARVO. Especially since the guy has almost nothing left to lose, and no remorse. And though it doesn't compare, I am no stranger to the pain of someone I cared for going crazy and doing very bad things. But I really don't want to get into that here.

You're twisting my words again, and badly. I fully admitted before that this was not good writing. Or did you somehow miss that. But bad writing aside, it's not inaccurate. And the fact that you think my words even implied that anyone needed my permission to say anything about Kadath is just idiocy. All I said was that I'd stepped in on Kadath threads in the past, usually to point out stupidity. I didn't say I was focusing on commenters. I was speaking of Kadath's work itself. Which has become incredibly predictable. These days Kadath has alienated most of his original fanbase. But it's also stupid that you're bringing other artists into this that have nothing to do with EWS.

Also, you keep trying to look for a 'gotcha' moment with me to act like I'm being the crazy one. You took the idea of nostalgia, and then acted like I have rose tinted glasses. I don't, and nothing I've said even implies that. You act like you're so desperate to win that you're focusing on any little key detail you can twist and then use against me. Which frankly is poor debate, and only makes you look bad. My whole beef with this is people like you who won't shut up about the same details about ZZ's father over and over again in this thread. You can't even be original and say anything new about it. It's just back to the man and what he did in the past, instead of focusing on what kind of POS he is now, and how ZZ is confronting him for her own peace of mind.

At least I'm not one of those people that say "Dude, it's just porn", which is frankly unoriginal, and not a win all argument. And I think we could agree on that. You don't read a comic like this for so long and not get invested in the characters or story. But I'm more focused on seeing what's around the corner, not what's in the past. So no, not nostalgia.

The distinction of "I'm not nostalgic, I'm a fan" has little difference, at least from where I sit. You're still nostalgic for the SO of old and hoping it gets that good again. And you're defending it with "let's just see where this goes, guys!" when you don't do that with any other artist or any other comic. If you're not nostalgic for SO, you're doing a bad job of proving it by basically trying to shut down criticism of this shitpile of an arc.

I brought up other artists to make a point: This comic is the only comic on this board where, in the face of writing that even you admit is awful, you're saying "you're not allowed to criticize it because the arc isn't over yet" and implying that anyone who does is a shitty person. If you're willing to admit the writing is shitty, why should any of the rest of us be barred from saying so? You simping for Eric Schwartz as an artist, Sabrina Online as a comic, and/or Zig Zag as a character doesn't give you the right to shut down criticism that even you admit is valid.

And since you're on that "it's realistic" kick again, let me explain this to you one more time: The issue with the writing isn't that her father is an asshole willing to joke about raping his own child. The issue with the writing is that her father keeps managing to one-up her at every turn, psychologically dissect her like he's a professional therapist, and basically shut down any attempt at ZZ holding any sort of moral high ground on him! "You raped me!" "Yeah, well, you grew tits early and you're probably a lot like me, so who's the real monster, you dumb bitch." "I guess you're right." That's not any of the actual dialogue in this comic, but it sure as hell reads that way regardless. You concentrate so much on the "realistic psychology" argument that you're avoiding the "shitty characterization" argument and it's making your other arguments weaker by association.

Zig Zag confronting her father has gone from a "this is for my peace of mind" kind of confrontation to one where the story is saying "you know, maybe this child-raping asshole has a good point that our sexy and meant-to-be-beloved protagonist should consider" while trying to make him at least as sympathetic as the daughter he raped. Again, fuck all that "BUT IT'S REALISTIC" bullshit because it doesn't really matter when the story is trying to engender sympathy for a man who raped his then-underage daughter. If you can't agree with me when I say "trying to make people feel bad for a child rapist is incredibly fucked up even coming from a guy who wrote and illustrated a gang rape with the intent to provoke laughter", that's on you. And you don't get to demand that anyone here, least of all me, stop criticizing this comic and its primary focus just because a specific bit of criticism is pissing you off.

I'm focused on both the past and the future because the past informs the present and the future is descended from the present. The prior writing in this part of the comic hasn't lead me to believe right now that what's around the corner will be any better. And no, I'm not going to ask your for permission to say that or anything else I want about this comic in the future. So please, tell me again how I have to wait and see where this goes before I criticize this story. It hasn't worked out well for you in the past, and it certainly isn't working right now, but maybe the success in making me shut up that you've been desperately aching to have is right around the corner.

Oh, it is very different. The literal definition of nostalgic is "A sentimental longing for the past". I'm not longing for the past of this webcomic. I'm waiting to see what's next. That's not nostalgia, and the term does not apply. From where you sit has no meaning or bearing on the actual definition of the word, or the way in which it's used. And no, I'm not nostalgic for the Sabrina Online of old. I'm just waiting for the next arc. I'm not expecting it to be like the older stuff. I want something new.

I'm not saying you're not allowed to criticize. I'm saying to stop being a broken record repeating the same things over and over again. We all hate ZZ's father for what he's done. But people ranting about it and what he's done over and over again won't make this arc end sooner. After the massive flamewar previously had on this thread about it, just about everything you could possibly say about the father's past and the monster he is now, has been played out, ranted about, countered, defended, accused, counterbalanced, and twisted. It's all been played out.

Is it really so surprising that someone who's spent the last 20 years in and out of prison that they'd know a thing or two about psychology. A bartender learns enough about it after a few years on the job. When you've seen enough, it's not hard to psychoanalyze someone. And ZZ isn't exactly a hard puzzle to solve. People who end up in prison have to deal with other prisoners and their behaviors. It's basically a walled off enclave of horrible people who only have each other most of the time. ZZ's father has also been alone since he got kicked out. Loneliness often gives one a new and unwanted perspective on life and the the lives of people around them. And when one gives up on emotions like regret, it leaves them open to learning something new to replace it. It's like quitting drugs, but taking up gambling to replace it. Replacing one habit with another, or one emotion with another. Hence why the father is a borderline master of DARVO. But he's a hollow person or it.

Even if the story acts like it's trying to give sympathy to the father, I've felt none for him the entire time. I've admitted he had a point on a couple things. But that's not in any way sympathy. Sympathy isn't what this comic feels like it's giving off. Just understanding and DARVO. To psychoanalyze someone is to understand them, no matter how good or bad they are. Sympathy has nothing to do with it.

Yes, forgetting the past means you're doomed to repeat it. But, that doesn't mean you long for the past. At least I don't in the case of this webcomic. But ok, if you want to constantly rant the same things over and over again, go ahead. But it takes two to tango. And I'm frankly tired of this dance. You twisted words, doubled down on the wrong terminology, falsely accused me of rose tinted glasses, and and are a broken record. If you have something more creative to say about the situation, I don't mind obliging. But this should end here for both our sakes.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to pull my dinner out of the oven.

"I'm not longing for the past of this webcomic. I'm waiting to see what's next." But you wouldn't be looking forward to what's next if you weren't nostalgic for what that property was in the past. I liked the MCU in its first three phases, but after Endgame, I didn't find myself interested in seeing any new MCU movies unless those movies were good on their own. (So far, only Thunderbolts has managed that.) I can enjoy what came before without being interested in everything that comes after, and while I still hold a little nostalgia for that era of the MCU, I'm not so blinded by it that I fail to see the shortcomings of that era or the "phases" that followed Endgame. Similarly, I've watched cartoons from my childhood that I loved back then and there's a great many of them that don't hold up. Being able to admit that is putting any fond, rose-tinted memories aside and being real about how my tastes have evolved. Keeping a foot in reality while you look back at the past is the only way to handle the brain poison that is nostalgia.

As for everything else? The psychology of ZZ's father being "realistic" doesn't mean a fucking thing. Nobody but you cares about that angle, and everybody but you is ignoring it in favor of criticizing how Eric's writing has constantly allowed ZZ's father to one-up her in the conversation. This whole confrontation is ostensibly about her finding some sense of closure for her own peace fo mind and the writing is doing everything it can to not only deny her the huge "fuck you" moment she deserves, but give her father - the man who raped her when she was a teenager - a bevy of "fuck you" moments, including one where he literally jokes about raping her because of her breasts. "Psychological realism" is fucking irrelevant because of the bad characterization and bad dialogue. I can't explain it any clearer than that, so if you still can't understand that, don't ask me for help in doing it because I've given you more than enough. And if you don't like people ragging on this point over and over again? Hide the thread and go keep up with the comic somewhere else. Bitching about other people bitching won't actually stop the bitching, my good bitch.

You're doubling down again. It's not nostalgia man. I barely think of the past of this webcomic unless I need to. If it was nostalgia, I'd go back and re-read all the old chapters. And I've not done that in at least five years. Not even for my favorite webcomic Sequential Art. And I couldn't even be bothered to read more than half of the old Sabrina Online comics when I tried.

And what exactly am I to be nostalgic for? When Sabrina was still using her original Amiga PC? Amy's wedding? Endora's old attitude before she opened up, or how she used to be in the dark about ZZ Studios? The fact Sabrina can't find her old fur-print pants for sale anymore? Her and RC bickering about Linux VS Windows? Or their awkwardness when they first started dating? Zig Zag's repeated attempts at seduction? The April Fools pages? That Sabrina doesn't talk with Carli much anymore? ETC ETC. I really don't care. It's all moved on from that. I'm just waiting for new stuff as the characters grow older. So again, zero application of nostalgia. I have actual nostalgia for the Babe in The Woods webcomic, because I really liked that one, and it was canceled some years ago. But even in regards to Sabrina online, the old tech she likes isn't even stuff I like. She's nuts for Amiga computers, flip-phones, 8 bit video games, clothes she can n o longer buy, etc. I'm more into N64 and DVD players because I don't like streaming much, and most new video games are of little interest to me. The only I think Sabrina and I even have in common, is a like for Transformers. And I don't even own any of the toys. I'm more of a Gundam fan. I had one Transformers toy as a kid, and that was it. Instead I enjoyed legos and hot wheels cars. I have no nostalgia for past Sabina or past ZZ. Or even the past of any character in this comic. I actually like that the characters are aging, and that makes me look forward to new pages. But that in itself isn't a form of nostalgia. It's anticipation.

For me to be nostalgic about something, it'd have to be old cartoons I like, like Tiny Toons and Talespin. And lamenting that Bonkers didn't get a DVD release, or Bucky O'Hare didn't get a second season. And I don't know if you've heard of a series called Exo Squad. But that was really good. And old video games of my youth, like those on the N64. All that gives me nostalgia. But not this webcomic.

Anyway, I'm done talking with you about ZZ's father, because we'll never agree. So there's no point.

For someone who says they're not nostalgic for classic Sabrina Online and they barely think about its past, you sure were able to rattle off a whole bunch of shit about classic Sabrina Online that would've taken me at least a half-hour to research because I wouldn't have remembered half of it off the top of my head.

And not for nothing, man, but the reason you "disagree" with me about ZZ's dad isn't the reason you think. Even if I were to agree with you that his personality is "accurate" given what he's done and what he's been through, that still wouldn't fucking matter to me. The writing should be putting Zig Zag - a rape survivor facing her rapist - in the driver's seat and giving her lines that would at least give the audience some kind of emotional catharsis before she leaves and breaks down emotionally and all that. Instead, her rapist is getting to joke about having raped her to her face while the writing damn near tries to let him justify what he did with a form of "you were totally asking for it, you slut". "Realism" is irrelevant. Characterization and the tenor of this entire confrontation are the problems here. No amount of giving either ZZ or her father a "realistic psychology" will fix the inherent issues with giving a rapist more of a chance to shine than the ostensible protagonist of this particular comic. Now say "realistic psychology" again time like it matters. I want to see you once again avoid the point that you have up to now refused to address because I may be an asshole, but you're a fucking coward and that's worse.

I remember it because I've been in enough debates in these threads that I had to go back and look things up a lot. And the knowledge just stuck with me over the years. And learning through debate is often how one learns the most. If one learns and remembers history, it's not like they're nostalgic for it unless they really like it. For me, it's just history. In this case, webcomic history. If you wanted to get me nostalgic, I'd have to be talking about the RX-78-2 Gundam, or one of my favorite video games, or something. I also find it odd that someone who has read the webcomic as long as you have, doesn't remember details like that. What I detailed was actually pretty sparse. I just have anticipation for what new pages will bring. So again, no nostalgia. I don't think I've even been to the actual Sabrina Online website in roughly two years.

Again, done talking with you about ZZ's father. You're beating a dead horse.

>People who end up in prison have to deal with other prisoners and their behaviors. It's basically a walled off enclave of horrible people who only have each other most of the time.
Being in prison makes you better at dealing with prison and it's inmates, not people. It's such a specialized environment that it cripples your ability to deal with anything outside it, that's why people who spend a long time behind bars find it hard to process the real world. If prison gave you deep insights and the ability to psychoanalyze, recidivism would be a statistical error and not a sad fact. ZigZag's father is a blue-collar guy who has failed at everything he's tried to do in his life, this does not suggest a keen analytical mind.

Zig could have gotten help with her problems from a support group or a therapist, but Eric just treated these as a farce. We aren't really discussing the character of her father here, we're discussing why Eric chose to give this much screen time to a child rapist. Because the premise that she can get closure by confronting him without a third party on hand to reel him in and prevent re-traumatization is absurd.

Still on this are you? It's a dead horse man. Quit beating it. And not everyone who goes, learns from going to prison. Doesn't mean they can't learn though. Prisons these days often have their own educational systems for teaching inmates skills like cooking and other basic trades before they go back out into the world. Prisons often have their own counselors, chapels, libraries, focus groups, etc. It's really no surprise one could learn from being stuck there.

It's been said before that this comic has a tonal problem.

One month's strip would feature talking toys, a kid asking why everyone is hugging on the internet, or two characters starting an orgy in a busy amusement park.

The next month will be about 9/11, a character getting mugged/hospitalized, or someone confronting their childhood abuser.

You keep making the same mistake so much that I have to believe you're making it on purpose now. Ain't no other way to see it after you keep missing the point so much that you'd have to be retarded to not get it even when it's been spelled out for you. But on the off chance that you really are that retarded, I'm going to spell out the issue people have with this mini-arc one more time.

First off: Drop the "BUT MUH REALISM" argument. It's a non-starter because nobody is arguing against it. ZZ's father being an amoral bastard who copes with what he's done using dark humor? Not the actual problem. And nobody cares if his psychology is "realistic" or whether it's "realistic" if prison humbled him a bit (or if it didn't). Don't go down that road again because it's not the road everyone else is going down in regards to their criticism, okay? I don't want have to call the short bus for you.

The reason people are criticising this part of the comic - and I want you to really take your time to sincerely read and understand this, even if you want to intentionally misunderstand it in favor of the "muh realism" argument - is that ZZ's father has been getting too much screen time and too much deference by the writing. He's been allowed to one-up the comic's ostensible protagonist without her really able to fire back anything that has as much bite as he's been dishing out. The format of this comic dictates that every page end with a joke/punchline, and as we've established many times before, one of those "jokes" was ZZ's father saying he raped her when she was a child because puberty blessed her with nice tits. The framing of the joke, the format of the comic, and the way Eric keeps writing ZZ's father dismantling her own mindset and arguments, the audience is clearly supposed to be laughing at a "joke" that makes light of rape by way of going "well of course the dumb cunt had it coming". Not only is that a shitty rape joke (good rape jokes "punch up" at rapists rather than "punch down" at rape victims), it's also giving a child rapist the chance to be seen as humorous in a way that we shouldn't be seeing as funny. The problem a lot of us here have isn't with ZZ's father having a "realistic" psychology - it's with the writing giving him way too much credit and giving Zig Zag virtually no real chance for a big, dramatic, emotionally satsifying "fuck you" moment. Every extra page of this nonsense, which should've ended at least three pages ago, will keep deflating that moment so that its landing will have all the emotional heft of someone coughing into their hand. And to reiterate so you get the fucking message: The psychology of ZZ's father and how "realistic" it may or may not be has ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOTHING to do with the writing being this shitty.

>>2517604
"It shows the good with the bad." You say that like a slice-of-life comic with the kind of outlandish stuff seen in Sabrina Online would actually benefit from the tonal whiplash of going from a comic about babysitting a horde of young children to a comic about a porn star sexually assaulting her best friend's mother and going on a personal journey into her past. Half the reason this particular comic (and especially this specific mini-arc it's in) isn't really working for a lot of people is because of the tonal whiplash. It's also not working because Eric's started at least three different plot directions - ZZ dealing with what she did to Endora, Endora dealing with what ZZ did to her, Tina needing a new place to stay - and of the three, only ZZ's story is getting any real time because apparently we all needed to see ZZ's family but especially her child-raping wife-beating asshole father. The story with Tabitha babysitting was at least more focused in that regard. This comic feels like it's going to wrap everything up in the last couple of pages as if Eric had spent most of the comic building up to their resolution instead of ignoring the other plot points to show us Zig Zag's origin story. To put a finer point on it: ZZ's father probably has more screen time in this comic than Endora, and this comic started with ZZ kissing Endora. If you want to tell me how that can ever be a good thing, especially given the way this writing has treated ZZ's father, I hope you have a better argument in your back pocket besides "BUT MUH REALISM" or "well ackshually slice-of-life comics all need a dark side to them or else they're just not really about life" (which is a "BUT MUH REALISM" argument in a costume). You seem so eager to defend this writing - especially given how you've been trying to explain the nuances of the psychology of child rapists - so why stop now? Please, dig that hole deeper while you still have a chance to get out of it without help.

Not that anon, but he's right. I only typically see SJWs complain that badguys are badguys. Like, it's not the conservatives, chuds or enlightened centrists who write 3 page articles about the problematic misogyny of a character like the joker. I get you're mad about **how** the character is being handled by other characters, but if the purpose of the portrayal was goal scoring / getting an abused character to dunk on the abuser, the abused character stops being a character. It becomes a marry sue vehicle to wish fulfill for the audience.

For good writing, I'd honestly rather have an abuse victim that's still a normal person rather than a manifestation of wit and snark just to fulfill your sense of justice.

I have no problem with ZZ's father being written as an unrepentant asshole. I have no problem with Eric giving the bastard a dark sense of humor. What I have a problem with is the writing putting him in a position to continually one-up the character that, for literal decades, Eric has treated so well that she's usually the one getting ahead in any situation (and maybe giving head while she's at it). I get that her dad has to be written the way he does as a character, but the writing here is so shit because, as I've said before, this could've ended pages ago with ZZ telling off her father and walking out of the prison only to THEN emotionally break down and consider whether the bastard had a point. Moreover, this scene/mini-arc/whatever you want to call it didn't need a page where the punchline was near-literally "you had your rape coming because puberty gave you big boobs" and the audience is ostensibly meant to find that funny instead of horrific.

I brought up the MCU earlier, and that provides a good counterweight to this argument. Thanos got a whole-ass movie to himself to espouse his ideology about balance and to effectively "win" by snapping half the universe's living beings into dust. Nobody had a problem with the bad guy being allowed to win in Infinity War because everyone knew Thanos would eventually get his comeuppance in Endgame (which he did). This is why the writing in this scene sucks: Whatever comeuppance could be coming to ZZ's father will probably never be seen (or will be glossed over if it is), so the only real comeuppance he can get that would matter in this context is from ZZ telling him to go fuck himself and trying her best to put herself on the moral high ground before leaving him to rot. But instead of that, we're getting pages' worth of ZZ's father giving her a comeuppance she didn't even really have coming while she sits and sulks and comes off as a brat. And yes, I UNDERSTAND that it can be "realistic" for that to happen in real life and all - but this isn't real life we're talking about here. It's fiction. And since all of Sabrina Online has never really been about letting "the bad guy" win - remember, even ZZ herself got decked when she tried to sexually assault Sabrina - seeing it happen here is so fucking jarring that it almost feels like a betrayal of the entire comic (and Eric's treatment of ZZ) to date.

One of the best movies ever made, The Dark Knight, ends with the bad guy ultimately winning: The Joker didn't blow up the boats, but he corrupted Harvey Dent so much that it forced Batman to break his one rule and take the credit for the murders Harvey committed. Same goes for the end of The Empire Strikes Back: Han was frozen and delivered to Jabba, Luke lost a hand, and the Rebel Alliance wasn't any closer to beating the Empire. Even though those two movies had sequels where the good guys ultimately won, those movies ended with the bad guys winning - and they're regarded as great movies anyway. The bad guy winning isn't the problem. The problem is making that win "work" within the context of the story so the audience feels like that ending was the only reasonable outcome of the story and thus creates the proper emotional effect. This scene in this comic sucks because it's hard to know exactly what Eric wants out of it due to how he's letting ZZ's dad verbally stomp a mudhole in his daughter and walk it dry. If this had ended pages ago in the way I described, I'd probably have a lot less hate for it. But now it feels like he's dragging this scene out so ZZ's dad can have the final word and thus an unearned comeuppance over the daughter he raped. "Ignoring realism" or "the bad guy winning" isn't the problem here - it's how the bad guy winning here would be an unearned moment that leaves a sour taste in the mouth of everyone who reads it.

That's 3 paragraphs to admit I'm right. As I already put it, you want the scumbag to end up getting his shit slapped by a character, that by your own admission, ends up on top far more often then she should.

In-fact, I'd say it's karma. Zig sexually harasses married women who are straight, so she has no respect for sexuality or marriage. In real life, that behavior would result in big fucking lawsuits and the business getting ruined with 99% of people saying fuck that bitch, it's deserved.

It's a lot like people watching 2077 for the first time, having no experience with the motto "there are no happy endings" for the universe, and complaining that everybody dies.

>That's 3 paragraphs to admit I'm right.
In case you missed it, I suggested that one of the ways this scene could've ended is with ZZ getting the verbal comeuppance (which would give the audience that bit of emotional catharsis) before leaving the prison and breaking down while wondering if her father was right about her. Again, think of Joker in The Dark Knight: His whole plan was to corrupt at least one of Gotham's two "white knights" so that even if he was either arrested or killed, either Harvey Dent or Batman would be corrupted in the eyes of the public, who would collectively lose hope in things getting better as a result and let the city fall back into chaos. (Die a hero, live long enough, etc.) No matter what happened with Harvey and/or Batman, "the battle for Gotham's soul" was won by Joker the moment Harvey and Rachel were put in those warehouses to die - and that's because Joker gave Batman the choice of which one to save and intentionally misled Bats about who was where so that he would be punished by the decision no matter what. (In choosing Rachel, Batman saved Harvey, which led to the woman both of them loved dying and sending both them into a mental tailspin. In choosing Harvey, Batman would have saved Rachel, but he would have been made to think he was responsible for Harvey being killed by having made the wrong choice.)

To repeat myself again, I have no issue with a bad guy winning. What I have an issue with is whether that victory feels right both emotionally and logically. In this comic, in this scene, ZZ's father winning would feel unearned and thus leave a sour taste in my mouth. Even if Eric's plan is to end this scene the way I mentioned above, the scene has gone on for so long and given ZZ's father too many chances to verbally one-up his daughter that ending the scene that way now would almost feel like a cop-out. And so I'm absolutely clear: I love being sucker punched by endings where the bad guy wins. One of my favorites is The Cabin in the Woods - not only do the bad guys win so big that the story implies they might wipe out all of humanity, but the victory is so earned within the context of the story that it feels like the ending was the only real conclusion to the story that made sense. And even though the good guys manage to eke out a "win" by facilitating the deaths of all the bad guys in the facility (and killing The Director), that ends up giving the big bads their victory. Nothing about that ending feels cheap, and when you consider how it's a satire of slasher flicks as a horror subgenre and the state of horror films in general at the time, it even feels like a "good" ending. That's why this comic's current scene leaves a bad taste in my mouth: Nothing about it feels as earned as the movie endings I've talked about, and I highly doubt this scene will end in a way that makes the overall story of this comic any better.

It's not my fault if you intentionally refuse to understand my argument. All I'm doing is making my argument as clear as possible so it can't be misconstrued unless you're intentionally trying to do exactly that. But if you want it boiled down in a sentence: Bad guys can win in a story without it feeling unearned and/or tonally wrong for the story - and in this specific story, this scene has been so uneven in terms of dialogue and tone that it seems like it'll end in a way where that "victory" will feel unearned and leave behind a shitty emotional aftertaste.

That's why I drilled down into specific examples of "the bad guy wins" endings: I can argue that a bad guy winning in a story can work while also arguing that it doesn't work in this particular story because the story hasn't really earned it. The dialogue has been so uneven in favor of ZZ's dad that Zig Zag, the protagonist of this story, hasn't really had a chance to get the better of her father the entire conversation. Even in instances where that sort of thing does work (think of Clarice and Hannibal Lecter in The Silence Of The Lambs), it's typically because the characters are written well enough to make it work. Good dialogue creates tension, a push-and-pull between the characters that heightens until the tension is broken at just the right moment to create the proper emotional response from the audience. This scene's dialogue is bad because ZZ's father has been getting the upper hand on her so much that no real tension exists - and it would still be that way even if you take the jokes out of the equation.

Once more, with feeling: Bad guys winning can work, but it takes good storytelling to make it work - and this scene in this comic is about the furthest thing from good storytelling that Eric's done since he tried to make a gangrape funny.

Because the disagreement is rooted in an idea I'm being told I believe in - specifically, that I believe the bad guy should never win in a story - despite arguing at great length that I don't hold that belief at all. I have pointed to several stories where the bad guy wins that I have no issue with, but I'll likely still be told what I believe despite not believing what I'm told I believe. If I believed the bad guys should never win in fiction, I'd be a fucking idiot. I can't rule out being someone with so much autism that I hog the whole-ass spectrum on some days, but I'm not so stupid as to believe what some people keep telling me I believe about bad guys winning as if it were an undisputed fact.

True, but she is taking this abuse needlessly. Not only does she have the freedom to leave any time she wants, she has the motivation. ZigZag is impulsive and brash often to a fault. Now you could say that facing her dad knocked her back into an earlier version of herself - into a time when she had to endure his abuse and now she's kinda doing it without realizing. But even that doesn't track. Even before the rapes, her dad used to beat her because she would get into his face and mouth off to him. She wasn't submissive even when it was the sensible option, let alone now.
That's the thing here - there's no character motivation for her to stay. In fact running off with a "screw you!" might not be smart, but it would be in character. She's staying in this scene because it is convenient for the author to have her to do so. I don't think anyone here's upset that the child-rapist is shit, they're upset that the writing is.

And it's worth asking what that convenience is for. Is it because Eric thinks she needs to sit through this abuse to make her a "better" person when she finally tells off her dad, or is it because Eric is trying to give ZZ's dad some sort of moral high ground on the daughter he raped? Either way, it's shitty fucking writing with no tension to be snapped and thus no emotions to be tapped.

Yeah. There was never a moment when someone tells Zig that she'll never get over her trauma unless she confronts her father, or her telling Tina that it's something she needs to do. Right or wrong, it would establish why she's staying and ground the decision in the story.
Honestly the confrontation with her mom should have been the big deal since it had more potential for good drama, catharsis etc. but the ineractions were just so wooden and flat. A waste of actual storytelling potential.
Even people defending the prison scene admit they are just waiting for it to be over and hope to never see ZZ's dad again, so it really doesn't make sense to make the least worthwile scene in this arc the longest one.

100% this. This is the issue. Four people talking here, including the guy who's really upset about how this story is going. Sometimes I wish we had automatic unique identifiers the same way lulz did.

Guy who keeps repeating himself -- we understand, we disagree! There is a very small overlap between true-to-life story telling, and satisfying storytelling. Even less so in slice-of-life which is what this whole comic is meant to be in terms of genre. Zig not getting her win makes it more authentic to life, and as a story. Some of us are all about the power of friendship, some of us aren't. Some of us want the sad and bad endings to some story threads.

There's an old saying. The best revenge is living well. Does Zig really need to slam poetry dear old Dad? Did you forget her success, her long term poly relationship with Lynx chick? Friends that wont leave her even when she's being a sex pest? Family that forgave her and was willing to come back and give being family another shot?

There's a deep lesson here -- envy is the thief of joy. Always wanting what you don't have is a surefire way to under-appreciate what's gone right.

Remember how I said earlier that people were intentionally refusing to understand my argument and were telling me that I believed something I don't actually believe? You did at least one of those in that paragraph. So since you fuckers refuse to understand me, I have to make my position clear again.

Have I said that I want, as an absolute, Zig Zag to get the last laugh and suffer no ill effects from voluntarily sitting through what amounts to verbal abuse from her father? No. Have I said that I wish there were no such thing as a story that ends with the bad guy "winning" in some way? No. Have I said that I avoid media with such endings? No.

What I have said is that it requires good writing - and I said "good" writing, not "true to life" writing, though those two are often one and the same - to pull off an ending where the bad guy wins and have it come off well. I've given examples of movies where the bad guy ultimately wins even if all the bad guy did was set events in motion that would ultimately achieve his goal without his direct in-the-moment involvement. I've dissected why those endings work in the context of those movies. That you still think I somehow have a problem with the concept of "sometimes the bad guys win" in storytelling despite everything I've said to the contrary is on you.

This scene in this comic sucks not because the bad guy might "win", but because there's no tension any more. If ZZ had left after her dad did the whole "we're a lot alike, you and I" bit, maybe there would be internal tension within ZZ as she tries to reconcile what her father said with the kind of person she thinks she is/wants to be. But this scene has gone on way too long to have any tension now. No matter how it ends - no matter who gets the last word and the emotional comeuppance over the other - there's no tension to break because the emotional impact of the dialogue has been so one-sided in favor of ZZ's dad that it robbed the scene of any tension. And has someone else pointed out, this whole situation is one ZZ put herself in - she went in voluntarily, she could leave voluntarily, and she probably already should have left. That she hasn't isn't "true to life", but bad storytelling that robbed the scene of any emotional tension it could've had. And I apparently have to say this again so people will understand it instead of twisting it to mean something else, so here we go again: Yes, I would've been fine if the scene ended several pages ago with ZZ walking out after a big "fuck you" moment, only to break down emotionally and really consider if her father was right about her being like him. That would be a "bad guy winning" ending for this scene, and to be 100% clear so there are no more misunderstandings (unless you choose to misunderstand), I WOULD HAVE NO ISSUE WITH THAT KIND OF ENDING TO THIS SCENE. The issue I would have is that even if Eric does it now, it's come way too late to have the emotional impact that it could have if he'd done it pages earlier.

My dislike of this scene has never been about ZZ's dad being a remorseless bastard, the potential for ZZ's dad to get the emotional upper hand on her in the end, or the writing being "true to life" or "realistic" in terms of the psychology. My dislike is rooted in principles of storytelling - dramatic tension, good "attack and defend" dialogue, pacing, satisfying endings regardless of the emotion invoked by said endings - that this scene thoroughly disregards. The writing is shit because it lacks any clear direction for where this is going and the dialogue has drained all the tension out of the scene. Have I made myself clear now, or will you once again tell me that I believe "there shouldn't be any bad guy wins endings" despite this entire fucking post (and at least a half-dozen posts before this one) telling you in terms as clear and unambiguous as I can manage that I 100% do not believe that bullshit in any way?

You completely misinterpret what other people are doing. Look, I'm autistic too. I used to argue just like you do, it wasn't until 35 that my brain development caught up and I stopped doing this.

People are not taking your meaning, when they are critical, and repeating it back to you in a way that will be charitable or will support your point if they disagree with you or do not want the outcomes that you do. As I said, some people are here to have some story threads and unhappily so that other story threads feel like Karma balancing the scales. This logically means that they are not going to make you happy when they repeat only the flaws of your argument and leave out anything that would be beneficial to your argument, that's just how people argue when they are neurotypical or approaching neurotypicality.

You have to understand that the direction you want the story to go in is diametrically opposed to the people who wanted to go a different direction or who are fine to enjoy it as written by the author as intended.

No amount of explaining yourself repeatedly is going to move these people, it means that they heard your argument and they disagree with it and they have filtered it down to distill it to the most dismissable form. This is why debates have judges, this is why they have special rules and flags for fallacies. Most conversations outside of an actual debate format do not run purely based on logic or the robotic thinking process that ignores connotations of words and sentiments. People do not operate in debate mode and debate was only really invented to have regulated conversations that would not be possible without mediators because of the strength of emotional involvement creating permanent impasses.

Please read this twice. Please absorb this. You do not need to wait for your brain to arrive to this place naturally to save yourself a lot of time, one of the big failings of autism is a failure of what is called theory of mind. Theory of mind is our ability to put ourselves in the shoes of other people and think like them instead of think like ourselves. We assume everybody thinks like we do and that they would come to the same conclusions we would. That's just not the case.

I've made my point clear a half-dozen times, and I'm still being told that I believe something that I don't, and I don't care if you think I'm fucking stupid for caring about people attacking my argument in good faith.

The direction this story goes from the most currently available page is irrelevant to my argument because no matter what happens, the dramatic tension of the scene has dissolved and left me with no reason to emotionally invest in the outcome of the scene. If ZZ gets to one-up her father, fine, whatever, who fucking cares any more - she got verbally stomped this whole scene and getting the last word in means nothing any more. If ZZ's dad gets the last word in, it'd be an emotionally inert moment at best and an outrage-causing moment at worst, but there is no sense of satisfaction to be found in the storytelling that led there. My issue has never been "realistic psychology" or "true-to-life writing" or "you're mad the bad guy might win" or even "you're mad that people in stories do bad things" (which is an argument so fucking stupid that even I can call it that without hesitation). My issue is, and always has been, how the writing sucked all the tension out of the scene and replaced it with the emotional weight of a dog farting.

Now I'll be glad to drop this argument so long as the people who've made it a mission to needle me into these long-ass replies by intentionally misrepresenting my argument and telling me that I believe something I don't will stop doing exactly that. When they drop the bullshit, so will I. But as long as I keep getting poked into explaining my position again, I'm going to keep doing it because I would prefer to repeat myself and make sure I'm understood as clearly as possible than let people shove words down my throat and try to make me choke on them. Do I have your understanding now?

It's worse because at least there was some self-examination in those storylines. Here, the whole point seemed to be "the audience needs to see Zig Zag's father and learn what a remorseless child-raping bastard he really is to explain why Zig Zag, who was already feeling like shit over kissing Endora, has some issues that she needs to work out". Like, all of this "ZZ takes after her father in some ways" shit could've been a single page between ZZ and her mom where they talk about how ZZ's dad was a piece of shit and ZZ sees a bit of him in her own behavior, then another page or two where she visits her dad's grave and emotionally breaks down over how she got her bad habits from him. This bullshit we got? I don't even know where it goes from here because it clearly isn't trying to be an actual dramatic story with a viable dramatic throughline, solid pacing, and a more satisfying climax than one of Zig Zag's romps with Tina. This entire "Stripes and Links" comic can and should be ignored, and the sooner it ends so Eric can get around to Amy dealing with Timmy going to school for the first time or something equally as mundane, the better off everyone - including Eric - will be.

Up until this point the writing wasn't so bad. But EWS can't write an ending at all. Rather than Tina walking in, ZZ should have stood up, said something about understanding herself a little better, tells her father to never show his face to her again or she'll cave it in, and then walks out. Instead now we see her father was a huge Tina fan, and now EWS has left an open reason for the father to come back and harass them later. Lord, I hope we never see this guy in the comic again.

Better, but still really predictable. The writing was so bad there was really no way for any ending to fix this scene. And it is hard to write an interesting scene where the basic outline is: two characters sit down, talk, and then get up and go their separate ways. Eric kinda set himself up for failure with this one...

But it's over and now he has the excuse to change ZigZag's character, which I figure was the whole point of this arc. Still a bit skeptical about that since the guy obsessed with the cartoons of his childhood and the first computer he ever owned isn't exactly the kind of person who embraces change.

Difficult, but not impossible.
Some of the best scenes from "Silence of the Lambs" were two people talking, with one literally in a cage at one point.

The difference as stated before was the pacing, actors' chemistry, dialogue, and having actual TENSION between those two characters.

This was a slog to get through. And perhaps most frustrating of all, the ending acts like the girls SOMEHOW pulled a win out of this.

Seriously, how does Tina casually claiming Zig's dad misidentifying her count as point scoring after all the times he got one over his daughter?

At least she could have said something like "I don't fuck prison bitches" given the last panel shows a hand reaching out to grab him.

It really isn't. All you have to do is figure out where the tension in the conversation lies.

Consider the setup for this scene: Zig Zag is visiting her father in prison; beyond the familial relationship, we know that Dear Ol' Dad physically abused and raped Zig Zag when she was a kid. She's visiting him to ostensibly seek some kind of closure over what he did to her and how it affected her. The tension thus lies in how Zig Zag tries to reconcile the person she wants to be with the person her father helped shape her to become, including her hypersexuality and her anger issues.

The conversation between them would therefore need to stretch out that tension until it hits a point where breaking it will create the intended emotional effect in the audience. Maybe the conversation would be a bit cliché if it were a straightforward "we're not so different, you and I" scene - but it would still be better than the tension-draining bullshit we got from Eric.

Let's ignore the shitty joke from the first page where this scene began and get to the next few pages. ZZ tells her dad that she's there because she's going over her past and felt it was important to see him one last time. He apologizes for what he did after being a bastard about it, she punches the glass separator, and he tells her she's doing pretty well for someone who's life he fucked up. That point right there is an excellent start to the tension that could've carried this scene: ZZ has to reconcile her life as Zig Zag, a hugely successful and famous porn star, with her life as Tanya, a woman who was sexually abused by her father at a young age. And the next few lines help with that tension, too: ZZ's dad (henceforth "Dad" because it's easier) all but demands credit for Tanya's life turning out the way it did. This is an excellent way to turn the screws and tighten the tension by having Dad put Tanya on the defensive - "attack and defend" dialogue is the hallmark of quality dialogue writing.

But it all goes downhill on the next page when Tanya starts saying direct shit. She openly talks about all the shitty things she's done to people - specifically, going further than trying to be friends when that's all she wants - and spelling out everything. One of the biggest problems with this scene is the fact that everything is so direct and out in the open, leaving no room for implication or suggestion. A scene with good back-and-forth dialogue never tries to be so openly direct the whole way through; it leaves a little bit for people to gnaw on through implication and indirectness - a way for them to add 2 and 2 together instead of being told it's 4, if you get my drift. The worst offender of this is the page where Tanya does the whole "I call myself Zig Zag to take back that insult" thing; it's so cliché and direct and overwrought that it feels more like parody than sincerity.

If you want a good example of a back-and-forth dialogue scene where two characters meet, talk, and go their separate ways (until a little later, at least), Batman Returns has one with the scene between Selina Kyle and Bruce Wayne - they're dancing together, talking with each other, and they're both unaware of each other's secret identities until they each say something to each other that gives it away. But once they realize the truth, they don't outright say "you're [Batman/Catwoman]". They both basically go speechless as they try to figure out what the hell their newfound knowledge means and what to do with it...right before The Penguin crashes the party they're at and forces them to go their separate ways. The tension in the scene comes from our knowledge of who Bruce and Selina really are; it's snapped when each they realize who the other is, but it creates a new tension by making us wonder whether they're going to be on the same side in the end, which carries through to the film's climax.

A back-and-forth dialogue scene doesn't have to be boring or cliché. It can have plenty of tension in it. All a writer has to do is figure out where the tension lies and how to best stretch it out without being too on-the-nose about it. Directness is the surest way to make that kind of scene boring as hell. Even the smallest of dialogue scenes can be made interesting through implication. In the Clooney-led Ocean's Eleven, Danny is sitting at a bar with Rusty; Danny says "ten oughta be enough" in reference to the heist job they're planning, and Rusty says nothing. Danny asks Rusty "you think we need one more?" and Rusty still says nothing. Danny says "we need one more" and Rusty still says nothing. The dialogue implies how well Danny and Rusty know each other - they know how the other thinks and don't need to say a word to get that across - and sets up the following scene where Danny recuits the eleventh member of his crew. It's a scene of dialogue that's maybe a minute long at best, but it stands out because it says a lot about the characters without the characters saying a lot.

This whole scene in this comic probably could've been whittled down to half its length and been much better if Eric had learned how to write drama in addition to (or even instead of) Garfield-level "comedy". Even if it had to be the most cliché conversation of its type, I'd still prefer that to the garbage we actually got.

It kinda hinges on the old Max Blackrabbit backstory - Zig was a strugling actress doing bit roles because of her "too exotic" look until her manager found her a lead in a pornographic movie. In that one, the manager was reluctant to even bring it up but ZigZag took it - her own decision to get into porn.
In this retcon Tina finds her working as a stripper/prostitute in a place that doesn't mind hiring underage girls (shady as fuck) and offers her porn as a way out of a much shittier situation.
Might be a nitpick, but in the first scenario she's picked the path of an actress and is willing to accept sex-work to stay on it, while in the other she's already having sex with strangers for money and takes a shot of doing it on film.
I get that her dad is shitty enough to suggest he's resposible for her success, but the notion is too ludicrous to entertain. Every success story, from little to big, starts with a person leaving home and becoming independant. It's quite possile to achieve this without having to flee your home in fear four your safety. That line makes him come off not as a villain but - an idiot. Which he is - blue collar turned white trash, never accomplished anyhting, even as a criminal, only ever fought people he percieved as weaker... This is kinda my pet peave - I need something impressive about a villain no matter how loathsome, and this guy just checks every field in the 'Looser' column. Even doing time as a known child molester would make him the absolute bottom rung in prison.
That could have been the therapeutic take-away for this - the last time Zig saw him he was the monster in her life, and now he's been reduced to a worm...

Yes yes! That's everything this story is supposed to/should've been! Not this unbalanced, half-hearted, impersonal, didn't even try to explore what it's like being in the situation as victim of a terrible act done to you as a child, "comedy bit" that we all had to endure for months.

Nobody has said it, but this incurious attempt to explore Zig's past is the same way he did in the book exclusive Amy's Wedding for the old Sabrina Online books. It's when Amy's father decided to just dump a panel's worth of information, with no prompt or warning, about how Amy was assaulted by a boy at 16 and apparently has had trust issues with others to Thomas before the two even got to the alter. It doesn't do anything for her character, it's the only time we ever receive this information, as far as I know, anyway, and it's forgotten about afterwards anyway. It's like Eric just took this idea from whatever dramatic episode of his favorite sitcom and added that into his little book exclusive story with the intentions of trying to get an emotional beat out of the reader despite its lack of substance and presence overall. It was something made back in the 90s and he hasn't changed how he approaches a topic like that in the 29 years he's been doing this comic. Just now it's worse since it's an abuse story with the topic of child rape being the focus and yet he can only see it as just another story about sad characters being sad and melodramatic as if he's going through every trope in the book to slap onto garbage story like they're porn tags on an imageboard.

While Eric loves Zig Zag, he doesn't really love her story as much. If anything, the reason this this whole storyline is triple-lengthed is because he hasn't written a Zig Zag focused Sabrina Online story in years and just wanted to use her backstory for it and to fill out his number quota for the next physical book release. If anything, he isn't really invested in the serious aspect of it as much as everybody, whether here or on his patreon, try to care for it. It's more Zig Zag with in a story so safe it's actively avoiding being challenging, what with even Endora's side of the story not bothering to treat the consequences with any really sincerity either. It's why this whole encounter ended so toothlessly. He's not making comics to put/challenge his characters in various situations, he's just fulfilling another financial quota.

You can take it that way if you want. That bit was predicated on the original dialogue and ZZ expressing remorse at pushing people away when she just wants a simple friendship. I'd taken that dialogue to mean that yes, she doesn't want sex all the time, but she can't help but push things too far because of how the abuse fucked her up.

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words. I did my best to give Dad more "attack" lines to get under Zig Zag's skin, but I peppered a few "attack" lines for ZZ in there until the "this is where I fuck you back" bit, which is where she goes full "attack". That's the key to good dialogue: There has to be give and take ("attack and defend"), and most of what happened in Eric's version was ZZ taking ("defending") far more than she gave ("attacked"). I also didn't want to give her the upper hand the whole time because it would've been just as bad. The only thing I regret is, as pointed out above, not using the idea of "he was a monster to her when he abused her, but now he's a pathetic old man" - but that's only because that idea didn't come to me in the moment as I was writing. It was an hour-long rush of an idea, so there was only so much I could do. Still, it felt good to actually do some writing again after so long away from it, so at least this whole shitty ordeal of a comic made something good happen.

I think..... After this story arc... I'm finally done with this comic.

Like, I've been reading Sabrina since it first started getting published online back in the 90s. I'm probably one of the most dedicated readers of this series. But this... This was beyond a bullshit story. This was insulting to read. This ham-fisted attempt at a "very special episode" where ZZ confronts her sexually-abusive criminal father by LETTING HIM TALK and then it ends with him being allowed to call her "baby girl" while she remains SILENT?

Nah. Fuck this whole comic now. I kept up with it through a lot of questionable storytelling choices, but this isn't just bad writing. It's problematic on how Eric views these types of issues as a person. He's trying to portray a p*do-inc*stuous rapist as a sympathetic "Well maybe he's not SO bad" character. No fucking thanks.

If I had to wager a guess, I would think Eric doesn't actually like child abusers. That initial joke about Zig Zag's body filling out aside, he didn't actually try to paint ZZ's dad as anything but a bastard. The problem is more that Eric stuck so hard to the six-frame comic format and the "every page has to have a punchline"-type writing that it hampered the whole scene. Yes, every page needs a "hook" to lure people into wanting to see the next page - but it doesn't always have to be humorous, and it especially doesn't need to be in a scene about a subject this serious.

What made things worse was how Zig Zag sat there and basically took a ton of verbal abuse from Dear Ol' Dad without landing any lines that emotionally bruised him in the same way his lines bruised her. (As was pointed out by someone else, she could've pointed out how much of a monster he seemed like back when he was abusing her and compared that to the powerless piece of shit he is now.) My dialogue rewrite was an attempt to balance things out a little better by letting Zig Zag express some actual frustration and anger in a way that seems more human than sulking in a chair like a brat, then giving her a chance to low-key threaten her father with effectively being raped (or worse) in jail - sure, that makes her a shitty person, but this whole specific comic has been about ZZ trying to figure out why she's a shitty person to her friends, so it at least fits in with the idea that her father fucked her up by abusing her even if we can understand the impulse.

I maintain that the page format could work, but it would require better writing to make it come off as sympathetic towards Zig Zag. I have to assume Eric tried his best because laziness would still result in less bullshit than this, but his best wasn't anywhere near good enough to do this subject justice. Shame, really. I know Zig Zag is really just fap material and all, but she could still be given a whole Dark And Tragic Past that she worked to overcome and avoid repeating by being better than her abuser. At least we can all just ignore this bullshit in the future.

This is what's so frustrating about "Sabrina Online".

The storylines COULD be amazing. The characters have so much POTENTIAL.

I'm not saying this needs to be the furry webcomic answer to "The Sopranos" or "Breaking Bad", but it's been shown by other writers/artists that this comic could be a lot better.

There's tons of examples of modern cartoons that balance edgy/raucous/zany humor with drama. But EWS wastes it by sticking to a ho-hum PG-13/TV-14 rating. It's like he doesn't realize if he wanted an animated series out of this, he could pitch it to Netflix or Amazon Prime, not 90s-00s network TV.

Kinda this. Stopped reading after the "got boobs early" bit. Not because a child rapist made an off-color joke, but because Eric made it. This is his punchline formula - joke in last frame, shrug with palms up, eye-roll, head-tilt-to-4th-wall. Eric thought it was funny and was trying to get laughs out of it and that just creeped me out, and his stuff has been doing that a lot lately. I figured I'd just ignore it and wait for a normal story to pick up, but from the comments I read, it seems to have gone really down-hill in a bad way.

Also, anyone find it ironic that Eric's "confront the rapist" arc got a "pretend it isn't happening and wait for it to be over" reaction from almost everyone here?

While I feel sorry for your situation, let's not forget in his case he was a abuser who not only beat his wife, and even attacked a police officer when he was confronted, he literally raped his own daughter when she was still a minor;

This whole segment was a poorly-made catharsis that could've very well be resolved by cutting nearly all the pages between her visiting him in prison and the back at the hotel one, and then we go back to this one all "please feel sorry for the disgusting criminal asshole";

If Eric thought this would somehow benefit ZZ's whole catharsis, this only made it even more forced and also filled it with a pity-party for someone who doesn't deserve it

Obvious damage control is obvious...
If he "wanted his daughter to hate him" he could have just said "I have nothing to say to you, whore..." and walked out. Instead we got a "child rape builds character!" arc that Eric is now trying to back-track from. So even the initial angle of her dad being a villain with dialogue too poorly paced to make a villain confrontation work is out.

I'm glad he feels accomplished with this homage. I'm surprised this took a year to make.

I have a feeling someone could have knocked this out in a month using blender on a modern computer. I've never animated or rendered anything, so what the hell do I know? Tell me if I'm wrong.

I suppose an Amiga tribute *has* to be made on an Amiga for authenticity (it was emulated but still). That requirement almost certainly made this take way more time and effort than it would otherwise. To me it shows the value of keeping up with what others are using to create art.

Call me entitled but I'm disappointed. This project was so time consuming that none of his patrons got drawing rewards in '25. By extension none of us got to see that new art either. None of those patrons have said anything or dropped support. Which sucks because he's probably learned that he doesn't need to offer top tier patrons four drawing requests a year. Now it'll probably be one black and white sketch once every 9 months.

Ugh. It sucks to be a fan of someone that has the skill and work ethic it takes to produce so much more than the notable and most popular furry artists of today, but doesn't because he sticks to his old workflow.

Rant over.

If Eric wanted us to feel bad about Zig's father, why even write that entire prison visit the way he did? In fact, why even have him in prison seemingly not giving two shits about his daughter's anger towards him? Was this really a part of his self-harming "I don't deserve forgiveness" angle? Because it surely didn't feel like that at all. If he wanted the readers to treat this as a not so black-and-white mentality, actually write him as more of a reclusive loner in capable of holding onto a job or something. Not some prison rat who'll sooner rot than change while still regretting his actions in the past.

It's like Eric wrote one thing, realized it made no sense for what's supposed to be a serious encounter, and retroactively changed courses slightly.

Last Helen and ZZ meet, Bobby was 17. New upcoming comic says he’s 18 now, so pretty sure it’ll take place years before “stripes and links”.
Which now that I think about it probably makes this all the more worse, considering that EWS is now bringing up an issue that’s somewhat related to ZZ’s current revelation. Just makes her look all the more hypocritical.

Helen goes with Zig to the studio, gets gangbanged. But unbeknownst to her, Bobby followed and slipped in with the group, and bangs his own mom to get back at Zig. He busts his nut then walks up to Zig Zag and whispers in her ear, "I bang my mom." Afterwards, he turns and struts out. That would be a flex that would probably leave Zig there flabbergasted and horny.

He bad-mouthed a porn actress on an internet message board. And by all accounts, it was relatively tame. There's no indication he said anything racist/speciest or made threats against her or the other ladies at the studio.

Considering what people post on YouTube these days, he did the equivalent of saying "Megan Fox is a shitty actress".

People don't hate on Bobby. They hate on Zig Zag for doing what she did to Bobby, and to a lesser extent, his mother for going along with it. Then, with EWS, continue trolling Bobby with various images he's made over the years. People have felt it was rather petty of Zig to take it to that level. After all, he was a minour, so she could just beat him up as she did to all those others in her "Revenge Tour". So, she fucked his mother and bragged about it to his face. Now days, people just want Bobby to get even with her.

Those people are fucking stupid.

Bobby exists to be a fucking punchline, like how a bunch of furry characters - like Helen Dish and, to a broad extent, Zig Zag - exist to be spank material. Even if they do have actual personalities and such, the fact of the matter is that most furry OCs are generally going to be one-dimensional if the primary purpose of their existence is "masturbation aid" or "modern-day court jester".

I get why people feel the way they do. They're not wrong to think what they do, in terms of morality and such. ZZ traumatized him by fucking his mom and bragging about it; that was a shit thing for her to do. But beyond the fact that Bobby is an 18-year-old who presumably lives an otherwise normal middle-class life and would therefore lack the material resources to get revenge in the same way Zig Zag could, *they're all fictional characters* and the whole point of Bobby and Helen even being a thing in the first place was to set up a punchline for a bad joke in a comic strip should be the first thing that comes to mind whenever you think about either character. So ZZ fucked Helen and traumatized Bobby about it - so fucking what? There's thousands of stories and comics you can go read instead of the one EWS is about to do about Helen at ZZ Studios. Why get all hung up over this one gag character when you can go get hung up on a character with some actual depth?

And YES, pot-kettle-black situation here. But the difference between the people obsessing over Bobby and my own semi-obsessive criticisms of this comic's "we gotta hear ZZ's dad out" arc is that I have the dangling nutsack necessary to admit I'm stupid as hell. What's their excuse?

Guess people just like to root for the underdog. And compared to Zig, Bobby does come off a bit more sympathetic. But that's probably due to EWS' terrible handling of characters and their plots.

Like you mentioned about Zig's father. People wanted to see her confront him. Then EWS goes about trying to make him come off as him being just a pathetic loser, yet he writes the character as if we're almost supposed to be sympathetic to him. Just the cherry on top of his inconsistent writing and inability to really handle heavy topics.

They see Eric writing a strip that tries to generate sympathy (or at least pity) a wife-beating daughter-raping alcoholic shithead and they *approve* of it, to the point where Eric not only did an extra page with him to generate more pity for him, but made him the focus of an annual Christmas illustration for a reason that can never be described as "good". What the actual fuck.

Exploring ZZ's past and showing her dad in some way wasn't a bad idea. It's the execution that matters. And if this were Burger King and I could have it my way, I would anthropomorphize this specific Sabrina Online comic so I could have it executed by firing squad.

Then he's gonna have both ZigZag and her mom *appologize* to this guy who worked so hard to support them and they weren't there whan he needed them or some shit. What then - a porn comic with Zig and her dad "reliving old times"? Maybe Tina gets involved? Will they film and sell it?

Alcor's Patreon got shut down without warning because a comical pic of his character getting pantsed (to show her hyper-nedy undies) was deemed as "Glorification of rape".
Yet Eric does a whole arc of actually trivializing child rape ("you had big tits, you were asking for it!") and even does a child-rapist Christmas card and nothing?
Fuck, maybe his Patreon is actually a police honeypot and they're trying to lure in creeps?

I GET what EWS is trying to do here.
Call back to last year's Christmas strip with Zig Zag holding the same photo, etc. (good lord, has this arc been running this long?!)

But damn, man. Like everyone else said it's really creepy how he wants us to feel bad for this guy.

Despite what the comic tried to say, he's not a tragic type of criminal. No one FORCED him to do what he did. He made his choices and now has to actually deal with the consequences.

And no, including a poster of Tina in her prime is NOT a funny little in-joke or whatever.

Jerk-off meterial is relative. For some people, a close-up of feet is jerk-off material.
But unless there is a nude alt I'm not aware of, Alcor's pic showed a girl with her panties exposed. I got a laugh out of that because she was wearing Cadia-green boyshorts with 40k logos all over it.
Eric's Christmas card, by contrast, features a poster of Tina buck-ASS-naked that Zig's dad taped to the wall. So that he could look at it while he jerks off. Y'know, litteral jerk-off material.
So yeah - a convicted incestous child rapist looking at either his family or a porn-star (or both) while he spanks it. Talk about dreaming of a white Christmas...

He had Jane Cottontail gangraped, he had Chiropterana effectively blackmailed into performing a sex act, he wrote a story-within-a-story about a girl being tentacle raped (including "all the way through" penetration), and he made what can only be described as "sex-crazed Tribbles". At this point, even Naylor's crazy-ass bullshit is less off-putting than whatever it is Eric's been going through the past few years. At least with Naylor, you know what kind of hell you're getting; with Eric, there's a new circle of hell waiting for you somewhere that he hasn't yet pushed you into.

The callback would have been so much more meaningful if he showed Zig looking at a selfie of her with her siblings and grandparents and/or her mom. It would have shown her (a character people actually care about even though she is kinda highjacking *Sabrina* online at this point) reflecting on the progress she'd made in this arc.
Instead he chose to focus on an un-named scumbag who no one wants to see and who (to any sane person) is beyond redemption.
And to end a year of Sabrina Online without Sabrina, or even any of the main cast...

EWS has basically gone all "Family Guy" with his material. i.e. He'll do a bunch of gags centered around rape, abuse, etc. Then use his "clean" comic to lecture the audience about why those things AREN'T funny in the most confused, half-assed way imaginable.

While not as detailed as the actual series, the artist at least adds variety in panel count, composition, framing, pacing etc.

It's not just months of two or three characters sitting at a table having a back and forth, shot-reverse shot conversation. And the pages don't try to force in a punchline at the end either.

Best of all, the other characters aren't constantly validating Zig Zag's actions. They actually take the time to call her out on her BS.

I can't say it's perfect, it borders on being a melodramatic piece, but it is more of what a reader who likes the original source should've been given instead of having to make multiple excuses for why this means anything to them. It's not asking too much, just for characters to have actual agency and objections that aren't filled with compliments about how "epic and cool Zig Zag is" just because she was one of many then popular furry characters on the early internet.

I don't think people are meant to "hate" Bobby, so much as they're supposed to think he was being a dumbass by fucking around and leaving those mean comments about Zig Zag. He didn't think he was going to find out by way of ZZ fucking his mom. You seem to be projecting way too fucking much about this one particular character, in that you're standing up for him so often - and with a level of fervor that I've reserved for Eric's decision to portray a child rapist in a sympathetic light - that it feels like you took what is supposed to be a character meant only to be a punchline for a bad joke and turned him into a martyr of/patron saint for your own personal (and possibly incel-adjacent) bullshit.

This storyline highlights everything wrong with this continuation: there's no point in it existing.

There has been nothing of value brought on from this comic still going after Baby Steps and it continues to just keep running in place. Each story is paced worse than the last and the one interesting thing this arc opened up with gave up on its tone so early on. Now it's just offensive to read for most who aren't thrilled by the "extended lore" with Zig Zag's childhood.

The fact Zig went on this trip to arrive at an obvious problem yet still doesn't seem to understand this problem herself despite meeting her father who re-confirms everything wrong with him doesn't make sense as a reveal or a conclusion. We've all known Zig Zag has a weird fixation on prudish people like Sabrina and Endora to a mostly unhealthy degree, especially Sabrina, so why are they still acting so casual about dropping it now? Either have the character trying to reflect on their past actions as something wrong and in need to actually work to not repeat it in the future or piss off.

This constant need to protect and validate a character while making light jokes about their actions no matter what just keeps showing how much Eric just wanted to draw his wife without having to paint her in anything negative.

Mind you, Helen Dish appears in my 'SO' story after she's given property her former husband inherited from a deceased client.
The story at first starts with the Double Z Studio staff doing the property as a fixer-upper, with "Home Improvement" and "3 Stooges" slapstick, then it turns into a parody of "Home Alone"-esque traps for a gang of thieves and ends up as a take from the chase scene from "The Great St. Trinian's Train Robbery" a mystery is uncovered on Helen's property - along with a missing bank raid haul AND a lost steam locomotive...

Why does everyone keep doing this; suddenly entering the Yappolympics in dumping larger batches of monologue over their own feelings for themselves or each other? Because it's obviously not deep, the characters aren't going to retain the lessons outside of these very specific moments, and nobody outside the most die hard and overly loyal of fans will find this peak writing.

This is apparently where the "Sabrina and Zig Zag have a deep understanding of each other" comes from and I'm still unconvinced it's fully believable.

That was something my last work place gave me after I'd been there for just a week - only THEY were the ones who were the "don't count on it" - and all because I went that extra mile towards customer satisfaction...only to get FALSELY accused of touching someone's face, when it was no more than pulling-a-coin-out-of-the-ear trick - completely harmless.

...I'd seen the error of my ways and wanted to prove I could improve, but the guy in charge on the inquiry had already made his mind up. They then planned to put me in a no-gust-facing role, and yet nothing ever came up...

But it would take some heavy stylization to do it. I'm talking Spider-Verse levels of stylization. Generic 3D styling doesn't work for her.

I meet more users who have still not read the comic since 2012 who aren't notified of this comic's continuation, yet for some reason will still act like it's THE furry webcomic, as if everything else that came after it doesn't matter.

I'm standing here and I still claiming the only other reason this comic is going is because Eric needs the money. Better webcomic artists know when to fold 'em after exhausting all possible stories they can tell with their old cast. Guy could've made a spin-off comic connected to the same verse, yet he chooses to continue this comic mainly because it's his most known project. This is latter day Simpsons but with less attempts to stay current and accepting of the changing times.

That baby may as well not exist with how little Eric seems to want to do with it. Timmy was active even if most of his gags revolved around torturing Sabrina's Transformers collection. Danielle is just there to be the Gen Z (or Gen Alpha) for this run. It's more perplexing she hasn't aged up in the 9 years she's been introduced to the cast.

I blame the fact this comic won't stop introducing storylines. They don't develop the any of the characters and despite the format change are still written like longer Sunday strips.

EWS has always had this problem, even during the original run. He wrote his comic like a daily newspaper strip. Yet he would upload 2-4 strips a month.

That meant a story that would take say, a week or two in a newspaper, would take him the better part of a year to finish.

Like how did we not get any comics involving Danielle and the transformer figures? There was the brief one where they were looking at her sleeping, but I don't think there's been anything else after that right?

It would be very easy to have her interact with them just like her mother did, even if it was a dismissive Gen-Z joke like her being surprised that she'd have to actually move them or that they don't have a wifi function or something.

I am holding out hope that after this story he'll focus on something a bit more grounded and involving Sabrina and her immediate family.

Even if there are such stories, EWS is not the person to write them. Illustrate them? Sure. But write them? Nah, I'm good. Besides, at this point, what stories would even be left to tell about Sabrina or Zig Zag that wouldn't feel like a retread of previous stories?

As it's been said before, it's not that there's a lack of stories you could tell with these characters. It's that EWS doesn't seem to care anymore.

Several of the subplots in this arc could have been emotional, hilarious or both.

Tina needs a new place to live: we find out about the stigma that comes with being in the sex industry for years. People won't sell to her. Or people in the neighborhood are WASP assholes. Some places are dumps. We learn she's got a nest-egg in the millions. Etc.

Sabrina being put in charge of the studio for a couple days: She gets to know the rest of the behind-the-scenes crew, learns it's not just "point a camera at two people screwing". She green-lights the type of movie SHE'D get off to, and everyone else thinks it sucks.

Stacey and Tracey's wedding COULD have been used to explain how these two strike a balance between being in a relationship vs. watching each have sex with different partners. Add more bits with Tracey's brother, talk about how LBGTQ attitudes have changed. Wacky Bachelorette Party antics.

Instead, EWS primarily just has them all sitting or standing around in a blank void having a word-balloon fight.

I like this idea up until that last sentence. What I'd go with instead is Sabrina greenlighting a more romantic/softer porn scene that aligns with her tastes, but while SOME of the other studio regulars dislike it (including Sheila), Zig Zag sees potential in that direction and decides to let Sabrina script another scene like that. Sabrina consults with RC on the script, which leads to them acting out the whole scene - including the sex. Sabrina turns in the script the next day and, after a little needling, tells Zig Zag about her and RC acting it out. Zig Zag shoots the script down, but while she tells Sabrina the script doesn't "click" with her, ZZ privately reasons that no one could do it better than Sabrina, whom ZZ would never (at least these days) ask to perform on camera. She puts the script in a locked drawer for another day, but still considers filming more scenes that someone with tastes like Sabrina would enjoy.

EWS would never draw that story because he would NEVER sully his precious OC Donut Steel like that. But yeah, the idea is solid enough that it could be fleshed out into a short story or whatever. Shit, if I weren't so out of practice with my writing, I'd even give it a shot. But if anyone wants to take a stab at it, feel free.

If everyone in the studio were as rich as Zig Zag was then her reputation as a Good Samaritan would hold less water if she didn't keep overpaying her favorite prude nor offering her not girlfriend/business partner a room to stay in. I mean, we couldn't go through any subplot without these characters talking about how much of a benevolent sex goddess she is even in "self-discovery" story like this.

It's like the only value people have with her is the same kind of value they have with Helen: Zig fucks with her and that makes the comic worth reading despite both mothers having little personality to themselves and each have pretty generic banter when they meet up with the only other woman that matters in this universe.

He slipped his common sense. Remember the 'christmas card' strip? A convicted child rapist looking fondly at a photo of the family that he'd ruined.

This would have made a lot of sense because the arc was about ZigZag reconnecting with her family. It would have been both in good taste, and a meaningful way to wrap-up the arc in one pic - the survivors of the abuser coming back together.
The whole pitty-party for the child molester is extra creepy following in the footsteps of the rapey-as-fuck Chiropterana and Jane Cottontail...
The whole prison visit was a horrible idea, and the Christmas card was just doubling down on it. I know Patreon's an echo-chamber, but didn't anyone try to talk sense to Eric? Ask him what was going on in his mind? If I was his fan, I would be seriously worried about the guy after seeing that...

I'm reminded of the storyline from 2009 where Double Z Studios had the photoshoot with Zig and Tabitha. Zig had to be talked down from putting the photos on their official site due to the implications and unwanted attention that could bring.

Now here we are a good 17 years later and Zig is full on kissing the same child. Comedy or otherwise........ it's not a good look.

A peck on the cheek or forehead would have been ok. Maybe even cute.

But THAT?! Dear god, why? Why after all of this does Zig Zag try to tonsil smash a 12-year-old?

EWS has finally lost it. This... this is just... no.

That was an odd one. The original strip was a bit weird but he doubled down with the full art piece of Zig holding her giving the most fuck me eyes we've probably seen in this entire strip but then he went even further with the book cover with Tabitha and Sabrina looking nervous and Zig-Zag looking like she's ready to prey on her.

>>2555132
Can't actually believe he went this far, Tabitha might be having a comedically bad reaction but Zig looks like she's trying to see how deep she can get her tongue.

I think Zig might need another therapy session after this one.

WARNING:
PRETENTIOUS COMMENT BELOW

Going to be honest, what exactly is Sabrina Online to Eric W. Schwartz? Is it an irreverent comedy, an edgy sitcom, or grounded with a bit of exaggerated whimsy? Because the least thing I was expecting as a way to resolve this was possibly to allow time for Endora to come to terms with the kiss after Zig comes out to her about her years of childhood mistreatment and abuse and possibly ask if Endy would've liked a more honest person out of Zig rather than just the wild 40-something looking porn actress with little worries. The attempt to "quick fix" everything about making the problems "even" isn't charming. It's not funny, clever or subversive as EWS thinks. It's not even charming or endearing.

It's just gross.

It's an admission to how little care there was to explore Zig's trauma and how that affects her daily life outside of her environment. It's a pointless story that's only here for fans to enjoy finally seeing Zig's family, all of which had little personality and reflection on Zig as a person and how cut off she's been with them.

This whole story feels like it's trapped in an early 2000s time capsule where shocking the viewer with something unexpected is the point, but we also spent 90+ pages where most of the comic wanted to be a hard-hitting tackle of child/domestic abuse where the character is somehow vindicated not because she's dealing with the reality that her overly perverted and nymphomaniac (emotional self) self is a reflection of how she's made no progress healing herself despite the fame and friends she surrounds herself. But because she's her, and she's just trying to be better, but she's not going to lie to herself about it just to suit what society thinks what's right. That she isn't her father because she's not a loser deluded in thinking she only got to where she is because of him, but in spite of him.


All this is to say that Eric is so irony poisoned and obsessed in his favorite character that he doesn't realized that that very same character kissing a 12 year old writes off everything he's worked on and has stopped writing any of his characters with real agency for a contrived joke. Somebody please check this man's hard drive.

I know this goes against everything I've been saying for years, but I miss when Endora was a self-centered conservative mother. It's an annoying trope, and a test of tolerance in real life, but at least it meant she had a personality. What is this giggling old woman who's just cool with some porn actress making out with her husband, a thing she didn't like at all back then, and her preteen daughter?

All characterization is gone. Everybody in the cast exist only to have funny reactions to whatever's happening in the foreground and nothing else.

Even her kiss with Warren is less rapey - her hands are cupping his cheeks and her mouth is closed. With Tabitha, she's gripping her arms tight and it's an open-mouth/tongue kiss.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.

Between this, the entire subplot with Zig Zag's dad, the sexual assault in Chiropterana, and the gang rape in Jane Cottontail, I'm beginning to think we're one porn comic away from seeing some fucked up shit from Eric that goes beyond anything we've seen from him already.

Also, yes, Zig Zag should be in jail alongside her father now. Someone Tabitha's age kissing her like that would be weird even with consent; Zig Zag doing it without her consent would probably count as sexual assault in more than a few states. (Yes, I know, fantasy story, but it's clearly meant to be something of a mirror to reality.) How the other three adults in the room aren't freaked out at ZZ doing that is a symptom of something being seriously fucking wrong with Eric - not as a writer (though he is a shitty writer), but as a person.

Unfortunately, this kinda thing has ALWAYS been a part of this comic.

The repeated kids days at the studio. The photo shoot in 2009. Tracey and Stacey having an orgy in an amusement park surrounded by families.

I get that EWS wants to do the whole “teach your kids about sex, don’t shield them, yadda yadda”. But this seems more like he’s advocating exposing children to pornography early and regularly.

In the only bit of fairness I'm willing to give him at this point, Eric has never shown Tabitha to be directly involved with any of the studio's output. Like, yes, the photoshoot (especially the way ZZ looked in it) was CONCERNING, but it wasn't like ZZ was about to start producing porn with Tabitha or have her directing a shoot. Even now, Tabitha may be AWARE of what goes on at ZZ Studios, but she still hasn't been shown as directly viewing any of the studio's output (or any porn in general), and she's never interacted with any of the ZZ Studios regulars in a way that so much as implies that Tabitha has seen them naked/watched them have sex.

Maybe this changes in the future. (I really fucking hope it doesn't unless he ages Tabitha up so she's, say, a high school senior.) But for now, Tabitha's awareness of the nature of ZZ's career is implied to be peripheral at best. It's a small comfort, but I'll take it.

And God help him if he ever implies otherwise.

Okay, at first you could just say it was dumb humor with Zig kissing everybody. But Tabatha?! A thirteen year old?! That's way too much even for the mess that the Zig-Zag show has become. And also Endora and Sabrina reacted when she kissed Warren, but NOBODY has anything to say when she fully mouths a CHILD RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM?! Like really? Like nobody has an issue? She can just do that now?

Not to mention all of this is coming off the back of her trip to face her past. I could have sworn with what she was telling everyone, her father included, was that she was going there to confront her past and move on from it and avoid becoming like her father. Maybe im imagining it, but I could have sworn she said to her father's face that she sees a lot of what she doesn't like about him within herself and she doesn't want to be like that. So her journey to move on from her past and avoid becoming like her abuser ends with her "comically" crossing that line with the little sister of her favorite person? Like WTAF?!!

Also, since this happened, does that mean that this will go down in canon lore that Zig is Tabatha's first kiss? This is not a good look for EWS. Especially coming off the back of that botched deep dive into Zig's past. Not a good look at all.

It wasn't a good look for him back then, but it could be excused as Tabitha not knowing what sex is or not seeing any sex despite seeing, say, the filming of any "setup" to the sex. With everything that's happened in "Stripes and Links", though? That excuse is retroactively less credible.

Man, it's kind of wild how this one comic - basically from the first page! - has wrecked Zig Zag, or Eric's version of her, as a character AND Sabrina Online as a comic series. I haven't seen a downfall this bad since Family Guy got renewed.

I have to issue a correction on an earlier comment I made in the thread. After having said I didn't think Tabitha ever saw Zig Zag or any of the ZZ Studios crew naked, I went back to re-read that specific arc of SabOL to make sure I was right. Turns out that she did see at least ZZ naked through the ZZ Studios website, since that's what kicks off the whole "Tabitha at ZZ Studios" arc. Now, whether she saw ZZ or other ZZ Studios regulars naked (or having sex) *in person* is a different matter, but I did fuck up with my recollection of the story, and that shit is on me.

That story and this story being what they are, however, is all on Eric.

Either he's losing his ability to inhibit his inner thoughts as he gets older, or he's actively trying to alienate his readers so he can stop drawing Sabrina and just focus on drawing porn instead (which really seems to be all he wants to draw these days anyway).

The scary thing is that his Patreon has seen a small uptick (about two dozen) in paying members. If you factor in how many people have been driven away by the child-rapist pity party and now this page of ZZ actually going full-p3d0 and been replaced by people who like this "new direction"...

Considering that ZigZag just full on kissed a child, regardless if it was meant to be taken as a joke, her words mean nothing here. She can talk about "inherited traits" and wanting to be a better person and NOT do those things all she wants, but it doesn't make a difference. She still literally went against all of those things a few seconds ago when she forced a kiss on a minor. And im still a little shocked that Zig's non-consensual kiss on Tabitha, who clearly didn't want it, is going unacknowledged by every adult in the room. I mean I know its been established forever that Zig can pretty much do nothing wrong, but holy shit is this bad.

Sabrina: "You know, speaking as someone who has known Zig a long time, that was actually pretty good". Like seriously, Sabrina? You're going to comment on her apology and not the fact that she played a quick game of tonsil hockey with your underage sister leass than 60 seconds ago?

Sadly I doubt this will be addressed. Or worse, if it is it will just be some shit like "don't think im going to forget you kissed my little sister" and then the issue will get dropped immediately afterwards and never be brought up again.

Either way, this last page invalidates this long-ass arc. The premise was that Zig is going to learn that something as innocent as a kiss can affect someone as bad as sexual assault and that she needs to respect boundaries.

You could pretty much cut out the entire road trip subplot, the meeting Zig's family business, the flashback, the "Tina needs a new home" bit, etc. and nothing would really change.

Honestly, I don't think it's a fear of change that's holding EWS back. It's that he wants to copy the "Status Quo Restored by the End" business you see on the Simpsons.

The difference is, an episode of that show only lasts about 20-30 minutes.

THIS story arc was almost TWO YEARS long. So, for it to end with Zig Zag going "tee-hee, back to square one!" feels like a MASSIVE middle-finger to the readers.

So what was the point of showing Zig and Tina's past together? It didn't amount to anything and they were so unprompted. Did Eric just threw them in here as filler? Because it really doesn't feel like the two ever bothered calling back to each other's past in the slightest to justify them popping up.

It's been said many times before, but this whole arc is a mess. Makes me wonder if Eric's mind wasn't really into it as much as he thought with how poorly paced and lacking it was in the grand scheme of revisiting Zig Zag's past. I don't even believe the sit-com status quo reset is completely true with how much time Eric put into this storyline, yet it feels like not enough was done other than setting up events. I don't even understand why he set up such a serious topic if he wasn't going to pay off anything equally substantial. It's like he views abuse, rape, and other hard subjects as "big sad" and his only recourse is to have his cast self-pity all day for how bad they feel about it.

The sad thing is, this didn't have to be that bad. I went over how the whole "Zig Zag and her dad meeting in jail" scene could've been improved (and even did a quickie rewrite to prove it), but the whole arc could've been saved by a much better writer. The primary issue is there's no real throughline for the main plot (ZZ figuring out why she acts the way she does) because it ends, or at least ends up, at a place where ZZ can apologize for her behavior but still exhibit that behavior and go "well that's just who I am" without consequence. The subplots that go nowhere or offer nothing of importance to the story can be axed without issue. The flashbacks to Tina and ZZ meeting each other and forming ZZ Studios and all that could've been a comic in and of themselves.

The ending of any story is its conceit, and there doesn't seem to be an ending here besides "ZZ still gets to be an asshole because her father sexually abused her when she was a teenager, but now she's slightly more apologetic about it". Endora is basically back to normal, Sabrina's whole family is basically ignoring how ZZ slid her tongue down a teenage girl's throat, and nothing's really changed in the sense of character growth or evolution. The fact that Endora's whole "okay, the kiss made me feel weird in a good way" bit was basically ignored in favor of the bullshit with Zig Zag's dad says more about Eric's writing than anything else. That said, Eric writing Zig Zag frenching Tabitha without consequence does say some things he probably doesn't want it to say about him.

So the current, blurry, early pages on Patreon seem to be Tina doing her dumb VTubing hustle and Zig's father meeting that one badger guy that mugged Sabrina back in 2012 across his cell.

Maybe if there is a time skip, and his parole took a few years. Then, if Tabitha shows up at the studio and has grown curvy. Then, she might be safe from Zig's father.

This is still so strange that it's gone back to dear ol' dad here, and how proud he is of his kid for beating up a guy. Guess he's not so bad after all. Maybe after he's out, he and Zig can rekindle the relationship where they left off, catch a few ball games together.

I'm just going to accept that Eric legitimately hates establishing a serious tone in his work. How do you take a long existing story about how your favorite character goes through a terrible childhood experience under a intoxicated and abusive father and then turn it into a big lark where he's giggling by the coincidence that his own daughter beaten up the mugger across his cell? Is this supposed to make Zig's father seem cool, that he's passed on that "toughness" he tried to shove in her head, or is this just because EWS thinks he's so funny wasting a page on seeing this man?

It's not like this series is lacking in "Dad" characters either. You obliviously have Warren. But you also have Conrad (R.C.'s dad), R.C. himself, Tommy, Tommy's Dad, and Spike.

If he wanted an older male character, he's already got a few. God forbid he focus on ANYONE not mildly tied to Zig Zag.

It could have been decent if he'd just avoided putting a child rapist in it. More space for ZigZag's family and her reconciliation with her mother, who was actually a salvageable character. More worthwhile and he could have kept it light and with his comci-strip jokes sprinkled in.

But at this point Eric is simping for ZigZag's dad, and I don't think anyone can possibly try so hard to make a criminal, wife-beater and child molester likable without realizing what he's doing. Eric seriously needs help but nobody in his bubble is going to tell him that.

Her dad being dead actually would have been a good way to take it, even if it's her just screaming at a grave for a bit. Could give her the emotional payoff that Eric's looking for, could have involved her family more and wouldn't have put so much focus on such an awful character.

It's not just focus, it's positive focus. Like him making a joke about why he raped his daughter and Eric expecting people to find it funny. Like presenting a rapist gaslighting his victim as therapeutic. Like that Christmas card, and this latest comic about him laughing at the mugger...
Zig's dad spent years beating the shit out of her (and her mom) until she hit puberty. Then he spent years raping her. Night after night, year after year, no remorse whatsoever. Let that sink in and then wonder what has to go wrong in a person's head for them to think "Everyone loves this character! I'm gonna give him more space in my comic!"

It's not even that people "loved" him, it's that Eric clearly didn't give a damn if they did. Anyone with any sense would've told him that trying to turn a child raping domestic abuser into a character who's meant to be seen as sincerely funny and sympathetic would be a bad idea. Any other writer might try to course correct and fix the issue. They wouldn't keep doubling down on it as if they actually have a future planned for a character so unsavory and disgusting. But Eric has continued to double down, which leads me to believe we're about one or two sex comics away from seeing Dear Ol' Dad get his own sex comic - and it's a toss-up as to whether it's actually going to show him raping Zig Zag when she was a teenager because we know for sure that Eric doesn't have a problem with drawing rape.

We're talking about a fictional story where someone admitted to raping an underage child. The only person being blind to evil is the person writing that child-raping sociopath in a way that tries to make him seem not just sympathetic, but entertaining to be around - despite him, you know, joking about WHY he raped his then-underage daughter. If you think that's good writing, I invite you to ask yourself why.

I'm not "facing uncomfortable truths you have not confronted yet". I know full well that people who rape, regardless of the age of their victim, can be outwardly charming and likeable and such. That's part of how they get away with it.

My point, which you avoided addressing, is that Eric is writing a child-raping domestic abuser in a way where his "charm" is meant to make the bastard genuinely endearing to the audience DESPITE the crimes he's committed and the lives he's wrecked by being a child-raping domestic abuser. If we were supposed to be horrified by him, Eric would've made him come off as creepy instead of "folksy" or whatever. Combined with Eric's relatively recent penchant for writing/drawing sexual assault in his porn comics - Chiropterana and Jane Cottontail both got sexually assaulted in their debut comics - there's an uncomfortable truth about EWS lying beneath the surface that I don't think you're ready to confront.

Most of EWS' "career" is made up of drawing Sabrina Online, drawing stuff for FAD, and having a booth/table at cons. Even FAD is now mostly made up of re-posting stuff he drew for patreon.

Plus, this is the furry fandom. It's not like rape and incest isn't already recurring fetishes. Just look at Naylor's work. Even this site has a place to post cub shit.

But honestly, it wouldn’t surprise me. Just about the only women in this comic who DON’T want to be “stars” are Sabrina and Endora

Was just about to say this. ZigZag's sexy, single twentysomething sister can't go near the studio, but Sabrina's preteen sister? Oh hell yeah, bring her in, do a photo shoot and have her visit again and listen to people's porn movie ideas!

I think if it were to happen, I have a feeling it'd be Brandy trying to push her sister into letting her get involved, Zig might have her reservations and think it's weird only to get into it for the porno cliche of "I never thought this would happen to me"

Or maybe they might get into a sisterly rivalry of trying to one up each other.

It’s even weirder when you remember that on the other thread, Zig Zag is dedicating lots of time and money so some random person can get over their mid-life crisis and screw with their son’s feelings.

Again with the "WON'T ANYONE THINK ABOUT THE POOR BOY'S FEELINGS" bullshit for a fictional character whose entire existence is owed to being the punchline for a bad joke. Jesus Christ, what the actual fuck is wrong with you people who think we need to have infinite pity for that dude.

Same reason people constantly point out other shit in EWS's world like Zigzag's bullshit, Endora's conservative prudeness, Jane Cottontail constantly getting r*pe, Holly dating Doug, that batgirl knock-off whatshername titfucking a diseased homeless man, etc.

When other people point out those things, it's in the context of either "Eric's writing really sucks ass" or "wow, Eric's going to some dark places with his art". It's not like I'm asking everyone to feel sad for Jane Cottontail when I point out that a porn comic character got gangraped in her debut appearance - it's pointing out that, compared to the bulk of his past work (at least the stuff that's been publicly released), Eric is drawing some really fucked up stuff nowadays. Everyone coming in here to complain about Bobby is basically asking us to treat a character who exists only to be a punchline of a bad joke - and I really can't believe I have to keep saying that as a reminder to you fuckers - as if he's a real person who survived a tragedy worse than the Holocaust and needs all the world's pity.

Why the fuck do you have an emotional attachment to him, anyway? Nobody cares this much about a character without one. And he's not even as much of a character as Jane Cottontail; the entirety of his characterization is "stupid teenager who said dumb shit on the Internet". What the fuck is there to even connect with?
>>
Furrynomous 2026/04/30 14:11:42 No.2566214
You completely missed the point of what I said.

My comment WASN’T about Bobby or his character.

My point was that EWS depicts Zig Zag wanting to keep HER sister out of the porn business but is perfectly fine with getting other women to sign on because THEY should have fun. (Or because she personally wants to fuck them. I.e. Sabrina and Helen)

That wasn't Badly Drawn Kitties. It was Better Days. Jay Naylor and the artist of Badly Drawn Kitties both had a female feline character named Lucy. I think there was some big issue over it. But I can't remember what.

It used to be the same character - Lucy Black. Even Fisk had made a few cameos in BDK in the early days when Naylor and Mat Sherer were in some kind of... 'relationship' before Naylor got deep into his republican christian "MURRRRRICAAA!" phase. Then Sherer changed *his* Lucy's last name and had his universe's Fisk die in the Iraq war.
And to kinda-sorta bring this off-topic discussion back on topic. BDK Lucy also dated and worked for - ZigZag!

Fisk and Lucy clearly have a “casual sex” attitude towards each other.

Do we have confirmation on what the next story will be? Hoping for something a little more home focused. RC and Danielle getting more page time would be nice, earlier comics Tabitha brought some cute fun to the panels, Danielle probably won't hit that same high, but she deserves a bit of time to shine now that she's talking.

I got a feeling she either will show up in some form, or it will be a pretty short story. Lord knows Eric cant really do anything substantial without ZZ anymore. You know, despite the fact that Sabrina is his main (and titular) character. Why more of the stories don't focus on Sabrina and her family life I don't know, but for some reason she's been more or less sidelined in favor of ZZ in her own story. It's pretty much ZigZag online now with guest appearances from Sabrina.

Guy really needs to put his characters in more unfamiliar situations or experiment with them more. You don't run a story for nearly 30 years and keep sticking them in safe, easy to reset situations.

I can sort of see why EWS stopped focusing on Sabrina.

From a narrative perspective, her story was "done". The comic started with her as a shy, single, under-employed nerd. It ends with her married, successful, her family situation settled (mostly), a social circle, and with a baby on the way.

I know we aren't supposed to use the s-word anymore, but in TV terms, that fits most series finales.

It also sort of fits EWS' writing. He never did much with Amy and Tommy once they tied the knot. Same with Spike and Carly.

I'm not saying a person's life ends once they're married or have kids. But as far as I'm aware EWS doesn't seem to have much perspective on that front. It's probably why the "new generation" of parents in this comic come off as so shallow and in-different to their kids.

From Eric's Patreon:

>"The next Sabrina Online comic story is in its early stages, set to debut in mid-June. The title for this chapter is "Frontlines and Backwoods". I won't go into detail here, but after the events of "Stripes and Links", Sabrina has earned a vacation and will be going on a trip with husband and daughter, knowing nothing of a growing power struggle she left behind.

>BE THERE!!"

So drama back at the studio while we have Sabrina in a rip-off of a lot of 80's road trip shenanigans comedy movies

I think the power struggle is going to be some toy thing, not at the studio. How can you have a power struggle with a ZigZag-caliber Marry Sue?
