What could possibly be controversial about a character who did nothing.

If anyone is, it's Vriska.

So when was the point that Homestuck went to shit?
Most people seem to either say right after Cascade, when Act 5 Act 2 started, or if they're really cheeky, when the trolls were introduced.

Personally, I think the point where Homestuck started to go bad was [S] Flip, and the following Doc Scratch intermission. That's when Hussie really started to get lazy, and it feels like that started the trend of Hussie skipping all the interesting parts of the story.

>>82251973
I wonder if she's even controversial these days or if everyone agrees she wore the fuck out of her welcome.

>>82252001
She should have died and stayed dead after S:Flip desu

where's the fucker who said they'd post the awful deviantart hoodie

>>82252001
it's almost like she appeared in hussie's dreams and forced him to make her the main character

>>82251973
>a character who did nothing.
He literally gave a universe cancer.
Not to mention he's responsible for cursing himself and everyone he would meet.

>>82251982
>[S] Flip, and the following Doc Scratch intermission
I have to go with a little before, at [S] Terezi: Play tiny record.

>>82251693
At least he managed to get a fine piece of ass in the end.

I've turned on the writer, not on the character. Everyone was off in Act 6. It's like declaring Dave irredeemable after thousands of pages of comedy gold because Hussie decided at the last minute to make him a gay sjw.

>>82252033
You know who else should have stayed dead?
Kanaya.

>>82252057
Maybe. But then again [S] Seer: Ascend was pretty cool.

>>82252057
But S:Flip was great. I like how Terezi killed Vriska because Vriska was a liability that got everyone killed

>>82252083
But then she couldn't have come back and chainsawed Eridan despite Eridan being a much more interesting character

>>82252048
Not really, he just advised the lesbian lightbulb to hurry the fuck up.

And had he not done that, they wouldn't have even reached the victory platform.

So aside from whining through pesterlogs and ambigious curses that were already a thing, he dindu.

>>82251879

See, that's why everyone thinks Karkat is a total joke. He's arguably the most important troll, but his major achievements are all offscreen.

We're told that he was instrumental in leading his loony teammates to victory in SGRUB, but we're never shown it.

We're told that he's going to be the wise lawmaker of Alternia 2.0, but we're never shown it.

RIP

>>82252079
You mean his right hand?

>>82252106
I'm not even upset about her killing Eridan because memes aside he really did have it coming.

I dislike her revival because it completely shot all tension in the foot. When she died, it created this feeling that anyone could die, seeing as how she was this incredibly major character. Her coming back just confirmed that the only characters that would stay dead were the minor ones. That was the point where death stopped meaning anything.

>>82251973
>>82252033
End of Homestuck being shit wasn't her fault. It was that damn juju plot device.

>>82252119
>>82252154
Dave doesn't just give hand jobs, you know.

I would've liked it if all 12 original trolls had lived and gotten decent development and then the Beforus trolls had never been introduced.

so is this how you get around being called a general?

>>82251693
I'm starting to wonder if the Karkat vs Clover fight was just mishandled and was supposed to be a bigger deal than it looked, because his apparently tiny Denizen sounds like secret preparation for Clover if you ask me.

>>82252146
To be fair, Act 5 Act 1 was long enough without showing Karkat leading his team to victory.

And he really didn't become a joke until Act 6, anyway. Even in Act 5 Act 2, when he was clearly one of the weakest members of the troll group, he was still the leader and he still got shit done.

>>82252177
Please don't fucking meme roleplay when threads are already getting deleted.

>>82252189
No.

>>82252195
Hussie nerfed Clover for him.

>>82252189
This isn't a general, there's just a near-endless amount of discussion to be had because Homestuck is the War and Peace of comics, except if War and Peace were also about time travel and alternate realities.

>>82252195
It seemed pretty clearly like a joke to me

Hard to imagine that the guy in the OP image would end up crying half the time he's onscreen and never accomplishing anything

>>82252195
Nah, that fight was just a joke. Much like Karkat.

>>82252184
I'm fine with Trolls dying, but they really needed more development before biting the dust, yeah.

>>82252181
Nobody ever mentioned Dave

>>82252195
I mean, it definitely was foreshadowing that, but lots of other stuff related to Karkat didn't pan out at all, like, it's not super clear why Echidna wanted Kanaya to knock him unconscious, all the parallels to the cherubs never even comes CLOSE to being relevant, etc. etc.

>>82252195
Remember when Spades Slick killed the vast majority of the Felt in a brief intermission?

Remember how Karkat doing his best to kill one is his crowning achievement?

JUST

>>82251879
based

>>82252237
Hussie nerfed the entire Felt and handwaved it pretty poorly. He also nerfed the Condesce, Lord English, Bec Noir, anyone he needed to in order to wrap it up by 4/13.

>>82252195
I was expecting his tiny denizen to have some twist to it and turn out to mean something significant for Karkat's character, but no, it was just brought up and then never mentioned again.

>>82252277
>kill one
Karkat didn't kill Clover. He just tied him up.

Trolls should have remained faceless background people, and Karkat, Tavros, Kanaya, and Terezi should have been the only four with extended interaction with the rest of the 12 having only 2 to 3 chatlongs

WHERE IS VRISKA

>>82252307
I said "doing his best", I never said he succeeded.

>>82252195
>>82252302
It's so weird because that bombshell was dropped on us right at the very end and it felt so significant but I guess it was just a joke about how weak Karkat is.

>>82252289
How was Jack nerfed? PM just had the same power level as him.

>>82252309
Trolls should never have existed since the alpha kids were already planned around the time of their introduction. The alpha kids should have been their online mystery harassers who (surprise!) fucked up their session to a near-hopeless state in the future.

So what happened to the Felt?
What happened to the Horrorterrors?
What happened to Aradia and Vriska?
Are the 4 kids trapped in the weapon the same kids that got to go to the new planet?
If yes, then when do the 8 kids fight Caliborn, and are the Alpha kids stuck on some shitty planet?
If no, then what the fuck happened?
What did the weapon even do?
Is there still an afterlife? What happens to the ghosts that get sucked up into the black hole?
What happened to the troll egg? Is Kanaya still going to restart the troll race, or did she give up on that in order to have lesbian sex with Rose?

She did kill Bec though.

>>82252422
He was unwilling to fight her because his boner got the best of him.
His first guardian powers were fucking useless against an entity with the exact same powers. Heck, they could have been suppressing each others powers.

>>82252561
3 characters were foreshadowed as killing Bec, it would be kind of hard for all of them to share the kill.

Could have used more explosions and red miles. They did NOT feel like the planet-wrecking monstrosity Jack was established to be in multiple flashes already.

Seriously even if only their swords worked against each other (claiming immunity to the rest), a way to communicate the amount of power at stake could easily have been done by having just the sword clashes themselves throwing off devastating green energy shockwaves and shit. That they were reduced to just plain one-armed dogs with fucking swords after all that buildup was the biggest letdown ever.

>>82252605
PM didn't force him to dress like a clown.

>>82252604
Not really.

This is homestuck, making plot bullshit happen to make that work would be nothing.

I mean shit, we already had three becs.

>>82252561
you mean like WV wearing the ring?
oh wait

>>82252561
Well, it kind of alluded to the time that Jade prototyped her own dreamself with Becsprite, which essentially destroyed Becquerel's consciousness.

Too bad her character development went backwards from there. She treated Bec Noir like a misbehaving puppy despite him being an out-of-control murderer, and in the final fight she spent the whole thing preventing PM from attacking him instead of doing anything useful, before getting punched in the face. There was really no point in her even waking up; it didn't even count against the heroes because the Condesce never bothered to use mind control on her.

>>82252561
remember how Jack was set up to be John's villain?

>>82252628

That, and whatever it is the White Queen's Ring has instead of Red Miles (assuming it's not the same).

Blue Leagues?

>Seriously even if only their swords worked against each other (claiming immunity to the rest),
I don't think that First Guardians are actually immune to attacks from other beings. It was implied that Vriska stood a chance against Bec Noir in the doomed timeline where she fought him.

>>82252604
>>82252628
There were several different things foreshadowed to bring about Lord English's undoing, and in the end they all contributed to his defeat. Credit where it's due, that's one thing the ending did right.

No I mean if green-sun creatures are immune to green sun energy, that would be pretty logical.

>>82252716

who would win in a fight, Lord English or Bec Noir?

I'm gonna say Bec Noir, because English's only real superpower has an absurdly long charge-up time and it's a uni-directional attack

Caliborn is a character that despite their inability to achieve simple tasks, keeps on trying no matter what, and goes from laughably bad to almost mediocre, and never doubts that he can improve as long as he tries. He doesn't rely on time powers or whatever either, he's single minded and accomplished shit with brute force, although he does sometimes use his wits too.

Instead of bemoaning his fate as a kid in a game and falling to romantic nonsense and refusal to play sburb properly he hiked himself up by his own bootstraps, overcame the odds and became the baddest dude in history.

The whole cast if full of belligerent oppositional defiance disorder children and Caliborn is the one character that says "maybe we should do what the game says we should" while throwing in his own tact towards said mentioned shitty kids with their stupid problems and non-pragmatic views on their own existence.

these dumbass kids couldn't go one quests and were 100% reliant on their sprites finishing sburb for them. And they deserve the ultimate reward? What a crock of bullshit. Lazy teens don't deserve anything but a slap across the face.

Don't forget that he had a confirmed learning disability and Dirk implied that he had autism, and that he was aware of these things and accepted that he'd have to work harder than everyone else to succeed, never complaining or feeling sorry for himself.

I mean as far as I can tell the moral of Homestuck is that good guys perform the roles that are expected of them and don't try to change their fate even if they are destined for a life of suffering. If you reject the future that has been prepared for you, you get erased from existence.

It's really sad, and Caliborn is the only character that is able to overcome it. Not even John with his retcon powers was able to escape destiny and chose to settle for a facsimile of his father instead of rescuing his true father from death.

Caliborn represents what we all wanted Karkat/Tavros/Jake and all the other crying weenie boys of Homestuck to do. Despite the cards being stacked against him, he worked hard and persevered, won everything and became a fucking huge ripped baller mob boss with a crew of underlings, the coolest right hand man ever and a gorgeous (if reluctant) dame on the side. Caliborn took his bare hands and made whole universes succumb to his determination to be the very best like no one ever was. He told Hussie, the entirety of Homestuck, and the audience to fuck off, took a crowbar to the establishment, and then went his merry way onto success.

>when Hussie castrated Karkat to create based Caliborn

>>82253229
John's "retcon" powers actually help create Lord English in the first place?
How can he retcon shit that was always intended?
John being outside the narrative should have lead to a fuck ton of changes, but it fucking didn't.
It lead to Hussie being able to undo any problems the kids had and re-inject Vriska into the story. The powers were explicitly so Andrew could get out the corner he trapped himself in while also taking the time to pander some more to his shit-eating fandom infesting all corners of the internet.

Here's a thought: With Kanaya still undead, Karkat and Terezi are the last living trolls. That means that in order for their species to survive in a natural fashion with the new mother grub, it's up to them to parent the entire rest of the species together.

Kanaya's not undead in the traditional sense.
Rainbow drinkers are jadebloods under power. They're basically super durable glow-in-the-dark babysitters that were built to manage the grubs.
Pretty sure she can still ejaculate into a bucket.
Either way, since Gamzee is irrelevant Karkat's basically surrounded by fertile troll women.

But isn't that what happened?

>>82253632
this is something that fucks me up about him and i never see it brought up enough. caliborn CANNOT be anything but evil. it's impossible for him to do otherwise.

we don't hate a tiger for following it's instincts. we know it's a predator and it does what it needs to. red cherubs are much the same thing. caliborn isn't even capable of questioning his own behavior because on every level he is doing what he is biologically supposed to.

on the flipside after learning this, it's become harder to view calliope as sympathetic. oh she's always going to be sweet and kind no matter what. she'll never falter or have moments where she does something morally wrong, like even the nicest humans do.

>>82253660
It's very petty that Hussie gets killed by one of his characters and he reacts by making that character a villain in the story. Disappointing behavior.

>>82253623
Given that all the fuchsia blooded trolls we've seen have been female with the same horn shape, I think they might only come in that one particular phenotype.

>>82253657
why couldn't the jews have just let the man draw yaoi in peace...

>>82253662
It isn't because terrorists are human and capable of change, or understanding that their actions are wrong. They do what they do because they're led to believe it's the right thing.

With Caliborn's case he is biologically, physically incapable of not being evil.

I'm not even defending him, just pointing out that this is some fucking awful writing unless Hussie legitimately wanted us to think Caliborn is the hero of the show.

>>82253662
>religion != existence

Calliope's existence completely jeopardizes Caliborn's.
Her shitty saccharine demeanor and un-cherub like personality fooled your idiot eyes into thinking she wasn't going to kill her brother. There was no way around this. It was going to happen, it was nature and unpreventable.

Caliborn TOOK THE INITIATIVE (look up the definition, I'm sure you don't know what it means) to prevent his own death.

>>82253398

You want to know something ironic that just occurred to me? The only male troll that doesn't apply to? The only one who never showed a moment of weakness or patheticness? Sollux. The one male troll who was really and truly left behind by the story early on.

I mean, who knows. If he'd been given a larger part in the story I'm sure there'd have been some moment where he screwed the pooch in some big way too, but as it stands I can't think of such a moment in the comic itself. The only moment one could make the argument that maybe applies is when he lost his fight with Eridan, but that was just a matter of brashness on Sollux's part, wanting to look like a tough guy by fighting the dude with the unimaginably powerful gun whilst he himself was unarmed. And even then, once it had happened, he didn't whine or weep about it, he just soldiered on and did what needed to be done when the time came.

>>82253612
every time I see this image I think of crab nicholson.

I don't know why.

Probably the pincer placement and glasses.

>>82253720
Calliope is actually the better cherub isn't she? She thrived in isolation and destroyed him; it was adding human contact that gave Caliborn the edge, and their species isn't supposed to have that.

>>82253483
>Kanaya's not undead in the traditional sense.

I disagree. Remember just before Game Over, we saw her attempting to goad Jane into using her resurrection powers on her? I think that Kanaya was really, really hoping that doing so would result in her reverting to a properly 'alive' state.

>>82253722
well he wrote the virus that caused the entire plot

>>82253741
She was pre-destined by nature to kill him. Due to their parents.

>>82253711
I remember reading that and thinking about how dumb it was that the main villain is biologically compelled to be evil. It's not like Caliborn didn't have enough, better reasons to snap. It's the same shit with the dersites, too.

>>82253760
Andrew is racist against black people and people with red blood

>>82253760
With the Dersites, Hussie at least painted the midnight crew as heroes (or anti-heroes) until he decided to kill Slick off and then reward the version of Jack that did the most harm, jesus christ fuck you Andrew

>>82253722
sollux waffles between stoic masculinity and being a pussy
he's bipolar, but since he's the only troll that actually has that masculine side to him, he ends up pretty balanced

>>82253776
I think it's about time we learned what Andrew's blood color is, don't you? Of all the questions he failed to answer in the ending, I do believe that may be the most pressing.

>>82253696
That's true of every blood color, though.

Not really. They showed that there are good people in Derse, like WV and AR. It's just the royalty that's evil by default, and that's less due to racial differences than because they're actually specific people who are constantly being recreated in a fully mature state.

Caliborn had every right to wanna kill everyone else.
He worked hard to get to the place he was at in the end.
Nobody else did anything but sit on their asses, twiddling their thumbs.
They made fun of his drawings, but his depictions only cast a favorable light on otherwise shitty irredeemable, petulant, quarreling children.

>>82253827
Honestly, Eridan sabotaged his own romantic prospects. If he wanted to be Feferi's matesprit, he should have tried to prove he didn't need her as a moirail.

>>82253680
>being predisposed to niceness means that you can't be sympathetic
Caliborn's unfortunate in that he's destined to be an enemy to defeat because of his endlessly destructive nature, Calliope's unfortunate in that she was paired with him from birth and lost the will to fight him because she was presented with friendship and erroneously assumed he'd be capable of it.

Also, you're seriously simplifying the cherubs. Pretty sure Aranea even said "good" and "evil" are too simple of labels. Red cherubs are prone to destruction and green cherubs are prone to protection, like Derse and Prospit or Time and Space. It's a consistent theming. I'm sure there are much nicer red cherubs than him and much grouchier green cherubs than her.

Classpects can be interpretated in too many ways for that, so he was also destined to hope LE out of existence

Jake would have a tundra or a desert (I was thinking some biome that he would be unaccustomed to/find difficult to deal with) and go on a few tomb raids, fight some traditional adventure game skeletons, maybe a few dinosaurs, find <insert special object here>, etc.

>instead of "The Land of Gasses and Gaudy Colors,"
Dude are you making fun of the best lands

LOMAX was a little lack-luster but LOTAK and LOCAH are both spectacular and LOPAN was just dandy. Why would you ruin the best parts of their session?

>>82254822
yes

>>82254845
Can I get your brush settings for that? The linework is gorgeous

>>82254677
Dad is dead and his soul is lost, never to meet his boy again.

>>82254845
Is Jane meant to be a cat or what

>>82253572
>>82253585
That IS what it's supposed to mean, but like everything good and beneficial about feminism, it (ironically) got raped by SJWs and 3rd wavers that have no idea what they actually want and like to bathe in victim complexes

>>82254845
:3 least I can say I tried haha

>>82254850
>LOMAX was a little lack-luster
Yeah, I guess that's really the one I was talking about. I mean, Dirk and Jane's were pretty cool, but I just couldn't look at Jake's land without feeling sick.

Why does Caliborn scopes so hight on autism spectrum disorder test? I mean, not usual 4chan "thouse fucking autists" shit, he does behave as if he was an insertion of a real-life asperger:
- Unsocial (ok, this applies to his race in general, except Calliope),
- His response to music (it just impossible to write something so realistic without seeing it ),
- Doesn't really care how others see him, but still attempts to play a "cool" person, works on his art nobody really needs, in general tries to play normal as he understands normality,
- Is clever, but his mental shit prevents from using it most of the time,
- Makes a lot of strange rules,
- Didn't liked the game at first, but then was the only one actually playing it (the story of my life),
Maybe, I'm projecting somewhat, but still… It looks like Caliborn was either Hussies self-criticizing true self-insertion or an insertion of his little brother/son/another real person (in such case, why is Hussie still alive?).

Why did you make that panel so small

And he has noted disabilities. Perhaps the intended disability was some form of autism, or the symptoms of his disability are just similar.

>>82254908
YES
HELL
FUCKING
YES

>>82254875
>That IS what it's supposed to mean, but like everything good and beneficial about feminism, it got spewed at by the WoJ who don't want it to mean anything until nobody can think straight when it's brought up.

Between Equius freeing Jane from the Condesce's control and playing a part in creating Lord English, he actually wound up being one of the most important trolls, whereas Karkat and Terezi contributed literally nothing to the end of the story.

>Why did you make that panel so small
Hell, took wrong image, sorry.

>>82254845
Puppies and bubble bath sound cute, hopefully rhe first one isn't porn

>>82254962
It's fine, it's just that it has the original file name, so I figured it had to be saved and then intentionally shrunk instead of put through internet resizing hell.

Nope. It's from wikia.

A'ight if you're into Rose being savagely humiliated, smacked around, used like a whore, made to feel like a whore, tormented in front of her unknowing mother, throttled like she owes money, and reduced to a living toilet by a bunch of sadistic girls then you got something to probably look forward to!

Could be better.

>>82255012
>no fancy design
>Jane has a pawprint hole on her ass
I mean, it's something.

>>82255012
Panties are made for taking off, doesn't matter what their design is

>>82255043

Fucking plebeian

Looking pretty slick there. And I applaud you for having a canon-friendly Jane rather than the bizarre landwhale physique that so many artists decide to apply to her, contrary to her in-comic appearance.

Also: What the fuck, 4Chan. I had to go through EIGHT LEVELS of verification just to post this comment. It's getting a bit absurd here.

>not liking to look at silky bikinis
>not liking to look at thongs with lace on the string
>not liking slap her ass when she's wearing those tight pseudo-boxers with cute/sexy text on the butt

Is being more aroused by sexy underwear than actual sex a fetish or a mental disorder?

Sure. Just as long as the primary themes of extreme dehumanization and lots of pissplay sound ok.

>>82254876
a valiant effort.
shame you missed some of the best parts of hsg

>>82254862
oh gosh i can give it to you, but its literally one of glubs old brushes he used for rendering and ive been sketching and cleaning my lines like this is the early stage of what it looks like
the only reason i use it is cause im too lazy to change my hotkeys in sai lol
also its a nightmare to color in

>>82254867
cats are the theme yes

>>82254980
nah, its that picture of the dog with puppies just being redrawn

>>82255012
the commissioner asked for a very specific set of undergarments

>>82255042
its not a hole, just a pink pawprint

>>82255060
i dont draw big jane
the commissioner also asked me not to anyway

>>82255006

Unknowing? Come on, it's way better if they're both fully aware of their relationship. Don't puss out on that detail!

Dude no panties are like gym shorts, the fun comes from removing them slowly

>>82255090
When you say "that pic with the dog", you might want to be more specific considering there are thousands of pictures of dogs

>>82255090
Believe me I'm pretty sad that I missed them too, but at least I'll have the warm memories of 2010-2-11 hsg

>>82255079
no it's called having good taste
