Even the maker of the comic made a followup where the "let people enjoy things" thought terminating cliche was dragged out back and shot.
About the only single comic that I can think of that did as much lasting ideological damage to western cultural discourse was "Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory" from Penny Arcade which was used to justify/excuse nazi shit across the nascent internet and also made people assume that everyone was a shitty edgelord the moment they could get away with it, which lowered the bar steeply for how many people expected others to act.
That edit was made for me.
The Adam Ellis redemption arc was really something.
Who knew, if you're not forced to make shovelware comics for a profit-driven company and instead make them because you enjoy creating art, the quality goes up.
I wouldn’t have been sorry, I would’ve walked up and shot it again just to be safe.
