600 issues. My goodness.

Don't forget about the 25 guest issues, 11 covers, the 10-part member bonus pinup collection from February 2012, the 2014 Thanksgiving panel and the one apology panel for late delivery.

Bravo to the whole SJI team!

But who's counting on the Sexcentenary? Bravo indeed!

Bravo!!

And now back to our questions

1. Where Raven and Reka in the dreamscape and who did they drop/Leap into?

2. What exactly happened between 598 and 599.  Did Dani slip under crystal control and Erin relapsed?  Did they decide "well, we can't get out from here, might as well enjoy it?"  Or did they decide to drive the memory to force the reaction we just saw out of Pearl and Adrian figuring Adrian climaxing her in IRL would wake her up and break the memory (as opposed to sucking Adrian in and turning him full Jakadrian simultaneously opening the door for other parties)?

Why is Adrian clothed, he wasn't in the last page

[jmundt29]

Last page was Pearl's dreamscape.  This page is the actual theater.

For the sheer commitment alone, thanks to all involved in this. To keep turning out a couple of pages a week for so long without letting up on the quality is really something.

I feel like I'm supposed to be able to interpret this episode without any ambiguity but it doesn't seem clear cut to me.

I feel like Adrian doesn't care all that much about Erin's predicament here, or about the fact that he has put Dani into the same predicament. And he shouldn't be happy about fucking Miriam again.

On the other hand, presumably he didn't come to the theatre just to fuck Miriam - there is a plan here. Miriam has to wake up properly to free Erin and the others.

Doesn't she?

Adrian seemed fairly concerned and serious as he carefully decanted Dani into the dream. Given what we knew, that felt like it might be an act. His demeanour here suggests perhaps it was.

So was Adrian tricking Dani? Was his intended plan something different all along? If Julian weren't sitting waiting in the car outside (well he's supposed to be anyway) I'd be assuming so.

So anyway, 600 episodes in and I'm thoroughly confused. And that's exactly how it should be.

Big hand clap 600 +

It seemed like Adrian was trying to trick Dani when he met her and it seemed like he might be tricking her when he opened the door, but

A. His plan of attack for the dreamscape seems legit
B. He appeared to act more like himself (or a more convincing imitation) when sending Dani off.

Weird.

Think how long this has been going on and how much awesomeness we've seen and Amateur Night at Sawyer's is still ahead of us.
