Well, you know she's got to be important... she's in the header.

Um, isn't it a little early for the onset of Cerebus Syndrome?

Well, Cerebus Syndrome only applies if you have a pre-established "tone" for an comic and it suddenly takes a turn for the dramatic. SInce DNPWWO is "officially" only 7 comics in, it might be a bit early to be deciding if this is a change, of if this is just how it always *is*.

Also.... Hey, I'm on there! That's sorta awesome.

Ah. I had forgotten about the extra people in the header.

But is there a Papabear298 hiding nearby with a video camera, hoping to catch two little girls on one set of swings? And what kind of a predator names himself "papabear"? I thought they were supposed to pretend to be kids themselves, not allude to being old and hairy? For a moment I wondered if some cop had set them both up, but why would a cop pretend to be a predator rather than prey? Hmm. Maybe it's a vampire hunter? Ready with stake, not ready for snake. :P

We said there'd be a humor focus, we didn't say there'd never be a story.

Though, as it happens, this arc is fairly short, and most of the others will be, too.

Also, why are The Apple of Discord and Exploitation Now listed, but Errant Story is not listed?

Probably because the way the story was introduced to begin with implied from day 1 it would have some heavy stuff (and didn't disappoint.) Cerberus Syndrome implies that it shifted without intent.

I'd be more worried if Errant Story were listed on the Jumping the Shark page...
